The explanatory SVR model will play an important role in regression analysis such as QSPR.展开更多

First, the reagents and their doses for the experiment are selected according to the characteristics of the zinc sulfate solution. Then, the reagent doses are optimized by analyzing the influence of reagent dose on the polarographic parameters(i.e. half-wave potential E_(1/2) and limiting diffusion current I_p). Finally, the optimization results are verified by simultaneously determining trace amounts of Cu^(2+), Cd^(2+) and Co^(2+) in the presence of an extremely large excess of Zn^(2+). The determination results indicate that the optimized reagents exhibit wide linearity, low detection limits, high accuracy and good precision for the simultaneous determination of trace amounts of Cu^(2+), Cd^(2+) and Co^(2+) in the presence of an extremely large excess of Zn^(2+).展开更多

The dose to the hasal cell layer of trachea and main bronchi is much higher than the dose to total lung both for rabbits at different ages and for different animals. A maximum value of the dose to lung tissue for rabbits at ages of 20-40d is observed. The dose decreases with increasing body weight. The relationship between the dose and body weight can be described by a power function. The dose to total lung increases exponentially with the minute breathing volume per unit of lung weight.展开更多

In this study, ultrathin tungsten oxide nanowires (W18O49) were synthesized using a solvothermal approach and examined as a multifunctional theranostic nanoplatform. In vitro and in vivo analyses demonstrated that these nanowires could induce extensive heat- and singlet oxygen-mediated damage to cancer cells under 980 nm near infrared (NIR)-laser excitation. They were also shown to function as radiation dose intensifying agents that enhance irradiative energy deposition locally and selectively during radiation therapy. Compared to NIR-induced PTT/PDT and RT alone, W18O49 - based synergistic tri-modal therapy eradicated xenograft tumors and no recurrence was observed within a 9-month follow up. Moreover, the strong X-ray attenuation ability of the tungsten element (Z = 74, 4.438 cm^2·g^-1, 100 KeV) qualified these nanowires as excellent contrast agents in X-ray-based imaging, such as diagnostic computed tomography (CT) and cone-beam CT for image-guided radiation therapy. Toxicity studies demonstrated minimal adverse effects on the hematologic system and major organs of mice within one month. In conclusion, these nanowires have shown significant potential for cancer therapy with inherent image guidance and synergistic effects from phototherapy and radiation therapy, which warrants further investigation.展开更多
