HIV-1 Transmission among Injecting Drug Users is Principally Derived from Local Circulating Strains in Guangxi, China

Objective The mode of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) transmission via injection drug use(IDU)still exists, and the recent shift in IDU-related transmission of HIV infection is largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to analyze the spatiotemporal sources and dynamics of HIV-1 transmission through IDU in Guangxi.Methods We performed a molecular epidemiological investigation of infections across Guangxi from2009 to 2019. Phylogenetic and Bayesian time-geographic analyses of HIV-1 sequences were performed to confirm the characteristics of transmission between IDUs in combination with epidemiological data.Results Among the 535 subjects, CRF08_BC(57.4%), CRF01_AE(28.4%), and CRF07_BC(10.7%) were the top 3 HIV strains;72.6% of infections were linked to other provinces in the transmission network;93.6% of sequence-transmitted strains were locally endemic, with the rest coming from other provinces,predominantly Guangdong and Yunnan;92.1% of the HIV transmission among people who inject drugs tended to be transmitted between HIV-positive IDUs.Conclusion HIV recombinants were high diversity, and circulating local strains were the transmission sources among IDUs in Guangxi. However, there were still cases of IDUs linked to other provinces.Coverage of traditional prevention strategies should be expanded, and inter-provincial collaboration between Guangxi, Yunnan, and Guangdong provinces should be strengthened.

Isolation and Characterization of a Dichlorvos-Degrading Strain DDV-1 of Ochrobactrum sp.

The objective of this research was to isolate a dichlorvos (2,2-dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate)-degrading strain of Ochrobactrum sp., and determine its effectiveness in remediation of a dichlorvos-contaminated soil. A dichlorvos-degrading bacterium (strain DDV-1) was successfully isolated and identified as an Ochrobactrumsp. based on its 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Strain DDV-1 was able to utilize dichlorvos as a sole carbon source, and the optimal pH and temperature for its cell growth and degradation were 7.0 and 30 ℃, respectively. Also, the growth and degradation of strain DDV-1 showed the same response to dissolved oxygen. In addition, the soil degradation test indicated that in soil spiked with 100 mg L-1 or 500 mg L-1 dichlorvos and inoculated with 0.5% or 1.0% (v/v) strain DDV-1, complete degradation of dichlorvos could be achieved in 24 h. The present study showed that strain DDV-1 was a fast dichlorvos-degrading bacterium in soil. However, further research will be needed to clarify the degradation pathway and the properties of the key enzymes involved in its biodegradation.

The feature of conduction band （CB） of Tensile-Strained Si（TS-Si） on a relaxed Si1-xGex substrate is systematically investigated, including the number of equivalent CB edge energy extrema, CB energy minima, the position of the extremal point, and effective mass. Based on an analysis of symmetry under strain, the number of equivalent CB edge energy extrema is presented; Using the K.P method with the help of perturbation theory, dispersion relation near minima of CB bottom energy, derived from the linear deformation potential theory, is determined, from which the parameters, namely, the position of the extremal point, and the longitudinal and transverse masses （m1^＊ and mt^＊）are obtained.

Isolation and characterization of YNTC-1,a novel Alicyclobacillus sendaiensis strain

A heterotrophic acidothermophilic bacterial strain,YNTC-1,was isolated from an acidic hot spring in Tengchong,Yunan,China.YNTC-1 grows at pH value of 1.5-8.0 and temperature of 40-70℃,with optimal pH and temperature at 3.0 and 55℃,respectively.The cells of the strain are in shape of short rod,with 1.0-1.2μm in length and 0.7-0.8μm in diameter,and with distinct spores at both poles of each cell.The predominant fatty acids in cellular membrane of the strain are C18:1ω7c.16s rRNA gene analysis reveals that this strain is closely related to Alicyclobacillus sendaiensis,with over 99%sequence similarity.Based on phenotypic and genotypic analyses,YNTC-1 is identified as a member of A.sendaiensis.Considering some important morphological and biochemical differences between strain YNTC-1 and A.sendaiensis ATCC 27009T,YNTC-1 may be proposed to be a novel subspecies of A.sendaiensis.However,this viewpoint has to be confirmed by further studies.Co-bioleaching of pyrite and chalcopyrite with strain YN22,Sulfobacillus thermosulfidooxidans,shows that strain YNTC-1 has no evident influence on bioleaching rates of these two sulphide minerals.

Pressure influence on the Stark effect of impurity states in a strained wurtzite GaN/Al_xGa_(1-x)N heterojunction

A variational method is adopted to investigate the properties of shallow impurity states near the interface in a free strained wurtzite GaN/AlxGa1-xN heterojunction under hydrostatic pressure and external electric field by using a simplified coherent potential approximation. Considering the biaxial strain due to lattice mismatch or epitaxial growth and the uniaxial strains effects, we investigated the Stark energy shift led by an external electric field for impurity states as functions of pressure as well as the impurity position, A1 component and areal electron density. The numerical result shows that the binding energy near linearly increases with pressure from 0 to 10 GPa. It is also found that the binding energy as a function of the electric field perpendicular to the interface shows an un-linear red shift or a blue shift for different impurity positions. The effect of increasing x on blue shift is more significant than that on the red shift for the impurity in the channel near the interface. The pressure influence on the Stark shift is more obvious with increase of electric field and the distance between an impurity and the interface. The increase of pressure decreases the blue shift but increases the red shift.

Protein Characteristics and Field Efficacy of YN1-1, a Highly Virulent Strain of Bacillus thuringiensis

[Objective] This study aimed to investigate the biological characteristics of a Bacillus thuringiensis strain YNI-1, which has high virulence to Lepidoptera spp. [Method] The crystal protein of YNI-1 was analyzed by SDS-PAGE, and its indoor and field efficacy for Lepidoptera spp. was investigated. [Result] The parasporal crystal of YNI-1 has a diamond-like structure. The molecular weight of the original toxin protein is 136 kDa. After trypsin treatment, the original toxin protein was hy- drolyzed into active toxin protein with molecular weight of 63 kDa. For Plutella xy- Iostella and Pieris rapae, the indoor efficacy of B. thuringiensis was better than that of commercial B. thuringiensis （WP）. In view of field efficacy, rate of YNI-1 strain was higher than that of commercial B [Conelusion] YNI-1 strain has excellent development potential. the insects reduced thuringiensis （WP）.

Isolation and characteristics of Arthrobacter sp.strain CW-1 for biodegradation of PAEs

Isolation of new bacterial strains and recognition of their metabolic activities are highly desirable for sustainability of natural ecosystems. Biodegradation of dimethyl phthalate （DMP） under anoxic conditions has been shown to occur as a series of sequential steps using strain CW-1 isolated from digested sludge of Sibao Wastewater Treatment Plant in Hangzhou, China. The microbial colony on LB medium was yellowish, 3-5 mm in diameter, convex in the center, and embedded in mucous externally. The individual cells of strain CW-1 are irregular rods, measuring （0.6-0.7）×（0.9-1.0） pm, V-shaped, with clubbed ends, Gram positive and without any filaments. 16S rDNA （ 1438 bp） sequence analysis showed that the strain was related to Arthrobacter sp. CW-1 and can degrade PAEs utilizing nitrate as electron acceptor, but cannot mineralize DMP completely. The degradation pathway was recommended as： dimethyl phthalate （DMP）→monomethyl phthalate （MMP）--,phthalic acid （PA）. DMP biodegradation was a first order reaction with degradation rate constant of 0.3033 d 1 and half-life 2.25 d. The DMP conversion to PA by CW-1 could be described by using sequential kinetic model.

Misfit strains inducing voltage decay in LiMn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4)/C

LiMn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) is considered a promising cathode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries(LIBs) due to its high energy density and low cost. Its energy density degradation is often ascribed to the capacity loss during cycling. However, in this study, we find that the energy density degradation mainly roots in voltage decay. We have synthesized a series of LiMn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) /C(0.5 ≤ y ≤ 0.8) and find this voltage decay is correlated with the Mn content. A high amount Mn leads to a heavier voltage decay.In-situ X-ray diffraction(XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM) reveal the nature of this effect, which show a mismatch along the b-axis of-2.68%(charge) and +3.4%(discharge), a volume misfit of-4.41%(charge) and +4.54%(discharge) between Li_(x)Mn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) and Mn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) during phase transitions. The resultant misfit strains during Li+insertion compared to extraction result in structural degradations, such as amorphization and impurity(Mn F3) accumulation after cycling. The voltage decay can be alleviated by kinetic relaxations and recovered by a wild reannealing. This work demonstrates effective strategies to improve the energy density and cycling performance of LiMn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) /C,providing good references for other LIB cathodes, such as the Li-rich cathodes.

Crystallization of Nitrogenase MoFe Protein (NifB Av1) from a nifB Mutated Strain UW45 of Azotobacter vinelandii

Six hundred and 28 mg of NifB(-) Av1 was obtained by a chromatography twice on DE 52 columns and Sephacryl S-300 column from the crude extract (37 677 mg) of a nifB mutated strain UW45 of Azotobacter vinelandii Lipmann. The protein was almost homogeneous as determined by Coomassie staining of SDS gels. The analysis by SDS-PAGE showed that NifB(-)Av1 was similar to Av1 from wild-type strain of A. vinelandii (OP) in the kinds of subunits (alpha and beta subunit). When complemented with Av2, NifB(-)Av1 had hardly any H-reducing activity, but could be significantly activated by FeMoco extracted from Av1. Under a suitable condition for crystallization, short dark-brown rhombohedral crystals could be obtained from NifB(-)Av1. Both of the longest sides of the biggest crystal were 0.1 mm. The time of the formation of crystals and number, size, quality and shape of crystals obviously depended not only on the kinds and concentrations of the components in the precipitant solution, but also on the methods for crystallization and technical bias, etc. The preliminary results showed that the crystal seemed to be formed from NifB(-)Av1.

C^1 natural element method for strain gradient linear elasticity and its application to microstructures

C^1 natural element method （C^1 NEM） is applied to strain gradient linear elasticity, and size effects on mi crostructures are analyzed. The shape functions in C^1 NEM are built upon the natural neighbor interpolation （NNI）, with interpolation realized to nodal function and nodal gradient values, so that the essential boundary conditions （EBCs） can be imposed directly in a Galerkin scheme for partial differential equations （PDEs）. In the present paper, C^1 NEM for strain gradient linear elasticity is constructed, and sev- eral typical examples which have analytical solutions are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the constructed method. In its application to microstructures, the size effects of bending stiffness and stress concentration factor （SCF） are studied for microspeciem and microgripper, respectively. It is observed that the size effects become rather strong when the width of spring for microgripper, the radius of circular perforation and the long axis of elliptical perforation for microspeciem come close to the material characteristic length scales. For the U-shaped notch, the size effects decline obviously with increasing notch radius, and decline mildly with increasing length of notch.

Physically-based modeling for hole scattering rate in strained Si_(1-x) Ge_x/(100)Si

Based on the Fermi's golden rule and the theory of Boltzmann collision term approximation, a physically-based model for hole scattering rate(SR) in strained Si1-x Gex/(100)Si was presented, which takes into account a variety of scattering mechanisms,including ionized impurity, acoustic phonon, non-polar optical phonon and alloy disorder scattering. It is indicated that the SRs of acoustic phonon and non-polar optical phonon decrease under the strain, and the total SR in strained Si1-x Gex/(100)Si also decreases obviously with increasing Ge fraction(x). Moreover, the total SR continues to show a constant tendency when x is less than 0.3. In comparison with bulk Si, the total SR of strained Si1-x Gex/(100) Si decreases by about 58%.

Tunning the Band Gap of 1T’-WTe2 by Uniaxial Strain

The QSH edge channels can be used to connect dissipationless nanoelectronic devices, when the topological edge states and the bulk states have the perfectly spaced. But the monolayer 1T’-WTe2 bulk state is metallic nature, with edge channel lengths around 100 nm, which hinders its further study. By simulating the different terminational edge states, using the GGA-1/2 method to calculate, we found a stable terminational edge state. And under strain engineering, fixed the a-axis, the band gap gradually increases with the b-axis tensile. When the tensile to 2.9%, the band gap increases to 245 meV. It greatly improves the application of 1T’-WTe2. During the phase transition of the material from half-metal to insulator, the topology of edge states remains unchanged, showing strong robustness. Thus introducing strain can make 1T’-WTe2 a suitable material for fundamental research or topological electronic devices.
