This study was aimed to investigate the usage of synthesized thiourea compounds to inhibit the growth of Oscillatoria sp. in Kenyir lake, Terengganu, Malaysia. The inhibition effects of four eco-friendly alkoxyl thiourea derivatives compounds named as N-（（4-（decyloxy）phenyl）carbamothioyl）-4-methyl benzamide, N-（（4-（decyloxy）phenyl）carbamothioyl）-4-nitro benzamide, 4-chloro-N-（（4-（decyloxy）phenyl）carbamothioyl） benzamide and N-（（4-（decyloxy）phenyl）carbamothioyl） benzamide were examined onto the growth culture of Oscillatoria sp. These compounds were tested in 30 mL of Oscillatoria sp. cultures with different concentration of 16 μg·mL-1, 18 μg·mL-1, 20 μg·mL-1, 24 μg·mL-1 and 28 μg·mL-1respectively. The treatment flasks were supplied with an aerator for 24 hours under continuous illumination at 25 ℃. Chlorophyll-a concentration were extracted to calculate the inhibition percentage of each treatment. Overall, all these compounds showed inhibition effects towards the growth of Oscillatoria sp., with the highest inhibition of 37% by N-（（4-（decyloxy）phenyl）carbamothioyl）-4-methyl benzamide at the concentration of 18μg·mL-1. The methyl group that attach to the synthesized compound may contribute to the effectiveness of the compound which act as an algae inhibitor. However, extensive studies still need to be conducted in order to investigate the mechanism on how this compound reacts with Oscillatoria sp..展开更多

Methods: Healthy rabbits were randomly divided into four groups. Mannitol was injected into the vein of the rabbit ear in each animal. Pre-treatment prior to mannitol injection was per- formed with normal saline (group B), vitamin C (group C) and vitamin E (group D). Blood vessel injury was assessed under electron and light microscopy. In a second experiment, cell culture specimen of human umbilical vein endothelial cells were treated with mannitol. Pre-treatment was done with normal saline (sample B), vitamin C (sample C) and vitamin E (sample D). Total RNA was extracted with the original single step procedure, followed by hybridisation and analysis of gene expression. Results: In the animal experiment, serious blood vessel injury was seen in group A and group B. Group D showed light injury only, and normal tissue without pathological changes was seen in group C. Of all 330 apoptosis-related genes analysed in human cell culture specimen, no significant difference was seen after pre-treatment with normal saline, compared with the gene chip without pre-treatment. On the gene chip pre-treated with vitamin C, 45 apoptosis genes were down-regulated and 34 anti-apoptosis genes were up-regulated. Pre-treatment with vitamin E resulted in the down-regulation of 3 apoptosis genes. Conclusion: Vitamin C can protect vascular endothelial cells from mannitol-induced injury.展开更多

Four days after medication, most of the cells changed their normal morphology of tumor cells and became round, broken and even broke into pieces. The inhibiting rates could reach 75.1% on the fourth day. The division index reduced strongly and the clone could not form or the forming rate was very low. With the extract concentration increasing and the time prolonging, the inhibiting effect increased. These results indicate that Hailong has striking anti-tumor effects and will have a perfect future in the fields of treatment and prevention of cancer.展开更多

Calculation results show that berberine has a nearly planar structure with a number of active centers. The value of Mulliken charge, and the distribution of the highest occupied molecular orbital （HOMO） and the lower unoccupied molecular orbital （LUMO） imply that berberine has a good ability of electron exchange with metal surface. The test results indicate that inhibition efficiency （IE%） increases with the inhibitor concentration and the highest IE can reach 99%. Adsorption of berberine on the coating surface follows Langmuir adsorption isotherm with a single molecular layer by chemisorption.展开更多

The development of Se-based cathode is an effective way to overcome the above issues. Here we designed a hollow nano-spherical Co-Fe bi-metallic selenide coated with N-doped carbon(denoted as CFS@N-C)as cathode for K-Se batteries. Bimetallic selenide is benefit to improve the conductivity of composite materials;N-doped carbon layer encapsulation effectively inhibits the dissolution of poly-selenides and relieves the volume expansion. The as-prepared K-Se battery exhibits excellent rate performance(300 mAh·g^(-1) at 1000 mA·g^(-1)) and slowcharge/ultrafast-dischargecapability(dischargeat5000 mA·g^(-1) and charge at 100 mA·g^(-1) with ultrahigh capacity of 227 mAh·g^(-1)) with Coulombic efficiency nearly 100%. In addition, the ex-situ high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM) images reveal that the charge–discharge mechanism of CFS@N-C is K^(+) replaces the bimetal and forms K_(2)Se. The unique design in this work may provide certain directions on researching for high power density K-storage materials.展开更多

文摘In this work,a series of molybdovanadophosphoric heteropoly acid quaternary ammonium salts H_（3＋x）PMo_（12 -x）V_xO40-T were synthesized and employed as a reaction inhibitor in the selfpolymerization of methyl methacrylate（MMA）.The polymerization inhibition effect of H_（3＋x）PMoPMo_（12 -x）V_xO40-T）with different number of vanadium atoms and reaction dosages was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry（DSC）.It shows that the inhibitory effect was improved with the increasing dosages of H_（3＋x）PMoPMo_（12 -x）V_xO40-T）,and the polymerization inhibition was also affected by the number of vanadium atoms in the H_（3＋x）PMo_（12 -x）V_xO40-T .Furthermore,cyclic voltammograms（CV）was used to probe the mechanism of the inhibition reaction with H3＋xPMo12xVxO40-T.The result of CV indicates that the inhibition reaction is an oxidation–reduction reaction.H_（3＋x）PMo_（12 -x）V_xO40-T can react directly with the MMA monomer radicals,which eliminated the MMA monomers,and therefore the self-polymerization of the MMA can be effectively inhibited by H_（3＋x）PMo_（12 -x）V_xO40-T.

文摘Potassium-selenium(K-Se) batteries are a promising electrical energy storage candidate because of the cost-effectiveness and material sustainability, yet they suffer from shuttle effect, volume expansion and low powder density. The development of Se-based cathode is an effective way to overcome the above issues. Here we designed a hollow nano-spherical Co-Fe bi-metallic selenide coated with N-doped carbon(denoted as CFS@N-C)as cathode for K-Se batteries. Bimetallic selenide is benefit to improve the conductivity of composite materials;N-doped carbon layer encapsulation effectively inhibits the dissolution of poly-selenides and relieves the volume expansion. The as-prepared K-Se battery exhibits excellent rate performance(300 mAh·g^(-1) at 1000 mA·g^(-1)) and slowcharge/ultrafast-dischargecapability(dischargeat5000 mA·g^(-1) and charge at 100 mA·g^(-1) with ultrahigh capacity of 227 mAh·g^(-1)) with Coulombic efficiency nearly 100%. In addition, the ex-situ high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM) images reveal that the charge–discharge mechanism of CFS@N-C is K^(+) replaces the bimetal and forms K_(2)Se. The unique design in this work may provide certain directions on researching for high power density K-storage materials.

文摘MALDI-TOF-MS technology was used for identification of lipopeptide antibiotics producedby GEB3 strain, a derivative of Bacillus subtilis 168 which was transformed by lpaB3gene. The result showed GEB3 only produced lipopeptide antibiotic surfactin. The analysisby LC-MS demonstrated that GEB3 produced standard surfactin isoforms with side chainlengths of 13,14 and 15 carbon atoms. The bioactivity detection of surfactin indicatedthat the surfactin produced by GEB3 had inhibition effect on plant pathogens Rhizoctoniasolani and Pyricularia oryzae.

文摘All-solid-state lithium-sulfur(Li-S)battery is regarded as next-generation high energy density and safety battery system.The key challenge is to develop a compatible high-performance solid-state electrolyte.Herein,a two birds with one stone strategy is proposed to simultaneously enhance Li+conductivity and polysulfide adsorptivity of poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO)-based polymer electrolyte via the integration of Nb_(2)CT_(x)MXene.Moreover,the sheet size of Nb_(2)CT_(x)MXene is crucial for the enhancement of Li^(+)conductivity and polysulfide adsorptivity,attributing to the difference in a specific surface area related to the percolation effect.By tuning the sheet size of Nb_(2)CT_(x)MXene from 500-300 nm to below 100 nm,the ionic conductivity of the PEO electrolyte is increased to2.62×10^(-4)S·cm^(-1)with improved Li+transference number of 0.37 at 600C.Furthermore,theoretical calculation and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)conjointly prove that poly sulfides could be effectively adsorbed by Nb2CTxnanosheets via forming Nb-S bonding to inhibit their shuttle in the PEO framework.As a result,the all-solid-state Li-S cell exhibits an initial capacity of 1149 mAh·g^(-1)at 0.5C and good cycling stability with 491 mAh·g^(-1)after 200 cycles.The results demonstrate the necessity of polysulfide inhibition and the application of Nb_(2)CT_(x)MXene in PEO-based electrolytes for all-solid-state Li-S batteries.
