Plant height of the male parent was 6-8 cm higher than that of the female parent, and blooming time of the male parent was 30-60 min earlier than that of the female parent. The seed pro-duction technology points of Tongyoujing 1 include appropriate seeding (the differ-ence in sowing period of both parents is 3-5 d), timely transplanting, reasonable layout (ratio of rows between both parents is 2:(6-8)), strengthening variety isolation, scientific fertilizer and water management (high fertilization for male parent and ade-quate fertilization for female parent), reasonably regulating flowering period (to pro-mote flower synchronization), artificial pollination (to improve outcrossing rate), paying attention to miscel aneous plant removal and pest control and timely harvest.展开更多

The effect of modifications was followed by the binding to the insulin receptor. From our results, we can deduce several conclusions: (1) the replacement of tyrosine in the position B26 by histidine, [N-MeHis^B26]-des-tetrapeptide-(B27-B30)-insulin-B26-amide and [N-MeGlu^B26]-des-tetrapeptide- (B2-B30)-insulin-B26-amide, have no significant effect on the binding affinity and they show binding affinity 105%, 190% and 208%, respectively, of that of human insulin; (2) [Aad^B26] -des-tetrapeptide-(B27-B30)-insulin-B26-amide and [Phe(4-carboxy^B26)]-des-tetrapeptide- (B27~B30)-insulin-B26-amide affect the potency highly positively in vitro studies; they show binding affinity 529 and 289 %, respectively, of that of human insulin.展开更多

Superhydrophobic surfaces were prepared by constructing micro/nano-structure on copper substrates through an electrochemical deposition method. Conversion from superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic was obtained via a suitable sintering process. After reduction sintering, the contact angle of the superhydrophilic surfaces changed from 155° to 0°. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) images show that the morphology of superhydrophobic and superhydrophilic surfaces looks like corals and cells respectively. The chemical composition and crystal structure of these surfaces were examined using energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show that the main components on superhydrophobic surfaces are Cu, Cu2O and CuO, while the superhydrophilic surfaces are composed of Cu merely. The crystal structure is more inerratic and the grain size becomes bigger after the sintering. The interracial strength of the superhydrophilic surfaces was investigated, showing that the interfacial strength between superhydrophilic layer and copper substrate is considerably high.展开更多

The same is true in some of Carol Ann Duffy's poems, in which some mothers are described as institutionalized in the patriarchal society and considered as "the other", losing self-identity. Duffy also describes women fighting against the patriarchal control generation after generation until they are finally free. Some mothers exhibit their own potentials as mothers, either able to or unable to fulfill the duties of both material and spiritual caretakers of the family.展开更多

A double-blind trail. From January to June 2014 90 cases elective cesarean under spinal anesthesia randomly divided into three groups of 30, the control group A (Sml saline) given to dezocine (10mg / 5ml) B grou, given tropisetron (5mg / 5ml) C group. The incidence of shivering in groups 46.48%, 31.18%, 60.83% (P = 〈0.01). Bradycardia is a group (A) 3.3%, the group (B) is 0.0%. Significant differences in other variables (myoclonic seizures and rash) no significant (P = 0.353). Dezocine and Tropisetron alone can cure shivering effectively for cesarean section after spinal anesthesia.展开更多

TTX was extracted by 1% acetic acid-methanol, and most of the lipids were then removed by freezing lipid precipitation, followed by purification and concentration using immunoaffinity columns (IACs). Matrix effects were substantially reduced due to the high specificity of the IACs, and thus, background interference was avoided. Quantitation analysis was therefore performed using an external calibration curve with standards prepared in mobile phase. The method was evaluated by fortifying samples at 1, 10, and 100 ng/g, respectively, and the recoveries ranged from 75.8%--107%, with a relative standard deviation of less than 15%. The TTX calibration curves were linear over the range of 1-1 000 ~tg/L, with a detection limit of 0.3 ng/g and a quantification limit of 1 ng/g. Using this method, samples can be further analyzed using an information- dependent acquisition (IDA) experiment, in the positive mode, from a single liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry injection, which can provide an extra level of confirmation by matching the full product ion spectra acquired for a standard sample with those from an enhanced product ion (EPI) library. The scheduled multiple reaction monitoring method enabled TTX to be screened for, and TTX was positively identified using the IDA and EPI spectra. This method was successfully applied to analyze a total of 206 samples of fresh pufferfish tissues and pufferfish-based products. The results from this study show that the proposed method can be used to quantify and identify TTX in a single run with excellent sensitivity and reproducibility, and is suitable for the analysis of complex matrix pufferfish samples.展开更多
