Tetracyclines (TCs) are used for the treatment or prevention of American and European foul broad in bee colonies which are caused especially by two species of bacteria--Paenibacillus larvae and Melissococcus pluton. The present study aimed to determine the tetracycline residues in different types of local and imported honey. The reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet detection (UV) was used. Tetracycline and oxytetracycline were extracted from honey with 0.01 M sodium succinate buffer. Of the examined samples, 31.25% and 12.50% had these oxytetracycline and tetracycline residues, respectively. It was observed that all the samples studied have been reported residues of tetracycline and oxytetracycline more than international standards of maximum residue limit (MRLs).展开更多

The proposed method combines the FOC (fourth-order cumulants) technique with the ETAM (extended towed array measurements) method to extend array aperture and suppress Gaussian noise, First, successive measurements of a virtual uniform linear array were constructed by applying lburth-order cumulants to measurements of uniform linear array; Gaussian noise in these measurements was also eliminated. Then, the array was extended by compensating phase differences using the ETAM method, Finally, the synthetic aperture was extended further by the fourth-order cumulants technique. The proposed FOC-ETAM-FOC method not only improves angular resolution and array gain, but also effectively suppresses Gaussian noise. Furthermore, it inherits the advantages of the ETAM method. Simulation results showed that the FOC-ETAM-FOC method achieved better angular resolution and array gain than the ETAM method. Furthermore this method outperforms the ETAM method in Gaussian noise environment.展开更多
