The anatomical property indexes, including tracheid length, tracheid diameter and wall-indiameter ratio, and the physical property indexes, such as growth ring width, late wood percentage and growth ring density, were measured for wood properties. Growth character indexes, including tree height and diameter at breast height, were also measured. The analytical results showed that there exited obviously dif-ference in wood property indexes between different provenances, which is suggested that wood properties are controlled by their genetic differences. The growth character indexes of Korean pines presented significant difference and they might also be controlled by their genetic differences. Most parameters of wood properties mainly varied in the direction of longitude, but the parameters of growth characters varied in the direction of latitude.展开更多

Furthermore, flupirtine antagonizes glutamate- and . , 2＋ NMDA-mduced mtracellular levels of Ca and counteracts the effects of focal cerebral Lscherma. Although fluplrtme has been used to relieve pain caused by different diseases and clinical procedures, information on the safety and efficacy of flupirtine is limited. ＂fhe present study was conducted to investigate the neuroprotective effects of flupirtine on U373 malignant glioma （MG） cell lines. Methods： Cellviability and cell cycle analysis was performed by MTF assay and flow cytomet-,＇y, respectively. Results： Variations in the growth of U373 MG cells in $ mM N-methyl-D-aspartate （NMDA）, 1 mM flupirtine, and combined treatment indicated the antagonistic effects of NMDA and flupirtine on MG cell lines. The variation in the percentage of gated cellpopulation in different cell cycle phases showed significant variations after 48 h of treatment. Conclusion： Flupirtine has neuroprotective effect of on U373 MG cells, which limits its use in the pain management of brain tumors. This property warrants further studies using animal models and large-scale clinical trials.展开更多

Fabrication and performance of a high-frequency 0.3μm gate-length depletion-mode A10.s0In0.s0As/Ga0.47In0.53As mHEMT is re- ported for the first time. Using a combined optical and e-beam photolithography technology, submicron mHEMT devices on Si have been achieved. The non-alloyed ohmic contact resistance Rc was as low as 0.065 Ω-mm. A maximum transconductance up to 761 mS/ram was measured. The unity current gain cut-off frequency （fT） and the maximum oscillation frequency （fmax） were 72.8 and 74.5 GHz, respectively. This device has the highest fw yet reported for a 0.3-μm gate-length Si-based mHEMT grown using MOCVD. A high voltage gain, gm/gds, of 40.6 is observed in the device.展开更多
