The continuously re-emerging disease gives rise to thousands of deaths and enormous economic losses each year, which emphasizes the urgency and necessity to develop high-quality influenza vaccines in a safer, more efficient and economic way. The influenza subunit and VLP vaccines, taking the advantage of recombinant DNA technologies and expression system platforms, can be produced in such an ideal way. This review summarized the recent advancements in the research and development of influenza subunit and VLP vaccines based on the recombinant expression of hemagglutinin antigen (HA), neuraminidase antigen (NA), Matrix 2 protein (M2) and nucleocapsid protein (NP). It would help to get insight into the current stage of influenza vaccines, and suggest the future design and development of novel influenza vaccines.展开更多

The assumed flame structure consists of a broad preheat-vaporization zone where the rate of gas-phase chemical reaction is small, a thin reaction zone composed of three regions: gas, tar and char combustion where convection and the vaporization rate of the fuel particles are small, and a broad convection zone. The analysis is performed in the asymptotic limit, where the value of the characteristic Zeldovich number is large and the equivalence ratio is larger than unity(i.e.u≥1). The principal attention is made on the determination of a non-linear burning velocity correlation. Consequently, the impacts of radiation, heat loss and particle size as the determining factors on the flame temperature and burning velocity of biomass particles are declared in this research.展开更多

However, due to the decreased size of cement particles, beam damage during transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation becomes more severe than in conventional cement. In this work, irradiation damage to nano-C2S (dicalcium silicate) is observed and studied by in-situ evolution of diffraction patterns (DP), high resolution TEM (HRTEM), and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS). The results show that the damage to nano-C2S occurs through a decomposition reaction. Nano-C2S is first amorphized, and then re-crystallized into CaO nano-crystals with average size of 7 nm surrounded by an amorphous matrix of Si and SiO2. During this process, C2S particles exhibit volume shrinkage. The damage energy causing the reaction was analyzed and electron-electron inelastic scattering produced radiolysis and heat, leading to the observed phenomena.展开更多
