Temperature had great effect on β glucanase production which maximized at optimal temperature of 37℃ and decreased significantly when temperature was over 37℃.Charge quantity affected β glucanase production significantly. Adding oxygen vector N dodecane or acetic ether benefited β glucanase production, but it depended on the concentration and charge quantity. The results of fractional factorial design showed that age and size of inoculum and shaking speed were the key factors affecting β glucanase production and the cultivation time span to reach the highest β glucanase activity. The optimal cultural conditions for β glucanase production obtained with CCD were as follows: inoculum age and size (16 h, 3.82%(v/v)), shaking speed 210 r/min, charge quantity of 30 mL in 250 mL flask and initial pH 7.0, cultured at 37℃ for 50 h. Repeated experimental results accorded with those predicted by a second order polynomial model. The amount of β glucanase, α amylase and neutral protease produced by B subtilis ZJF 1A5 was associated partially with cell growth. Those three enzymes' activities increased following the cell growth and increased significantly when cells entered the stationary phase.展开更多

Recent access to intra-daily high-frequency data for two of the most liquid contracts at the Nord Pool exchange has made it possible to apply new and promising methods for analyzing volatility and correlation. The concepts of realized volatility and realized correlation are applied, and this study statistically describes the distribution (both distributional properties and temporal dependencies) of electricity forward data from 2005 to 2009. The main findings show that the logarithmic realized volatility is approximately normally distributed, while realized correlation seems not to be. Further, realized volatility and realized correlation have a long-memory feature. There also seems to be a high correlation between realized correlation and volatilities and positive relations between trading volume and realized volatility and between trading volume and realized correlation. These results are to a large extent consistent with earlier studies of stylized facts of other financial and commodity markets.展开更多

It has explained the pricing thought and method of non-performing loan backed securities in connection with the particularity and complexity of non-performing loan and finally proposed some key problems which need to be emphasized during the pricing practice of non-performing loan backed securitization.展开更多
