Comparative experiments on picking efficiency were conducted targeting picking operation with order of 1 to 20. Based on dedicated and random storage policies, 4 picking methods of patching-based, S-type, return-type and optimized-type routes were used and compared in the experiments. The results show that either the dedicated policy or the random policy was applied, crane worked most efficiently with optimizedtype route, followed by S-type path, patching-based path, and return-type path. When the number of orders in a single picking is larger(more than 5), the random storage policy is preferable to the dedicated policy.展开更多

We recorded SV channel currents of Xinlimei (Raphanus satirus L.) vacuolars. The minimum activation potentials of voltage-dependent SV channels tied in 25+/-5 mV. The increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+ led to enhancement of SV-type currents. It was found that the threshold potential of activation shifted towards more depolarized values whenever cytoplasmic Ca2+ was increased. When 10(-10) mol/L free La3+ was added to the bath, SV-type current was suppressed by 60 similar to 75%. These data showed La3+ reduced ion permeabilities of Xinlimei root vacuolar membrane.展开更多

The aim of this study was to explore the effect of exogenous phosphocreatine with different concentration on L-type calcium(I Cc-L) current in ischemic ventricular myocytes of guinea pig and to investigate its underlying electrophysiological mechanism for the treatment of ischemic HF. Methods Single ventricular myocytes were isolated enzymatically from left ventricle of guinea pig. Peak I Ca-L current were recorded using patch clamp techniques in the whole-cell configuration when myocytes had been superfused with normal Tyrode solution, simple ischemic solution, ischemic solution containing phosphocreatine with different concentration for 10 minutes respectively. Results Peak I Ca-L current density of myocytes superfused with simple simulated ischemic solution was remarkably inhibited by 80.6 ± 5.2% compared with myocytes superfused with normal Tyrode solution(P〈0.05). Ischemic solution containing phosphocreatine of 5, 10, 20, 30mmol/L inhibited Peak I Ca-L current density by (53.8±6.7)%, (41.8 ± 8.2)%, (38.1±7.4)%, (36.6±9.7)% respectively. There was no statistical significance among phosphocreation of 10, 20, 30 mmol / L. Conclusions Extrogenous phosphocreatine could reverse the inhibition of I Ca-L current under ischemic condition, which could be the ionic basis for the treatment of ischemic heart failure. 0-10 mmol/L phosphocreatine exerted significant dose-effect relationship which no longer existed as concentration more than 10 mmol/L. It is supposed that phosphocreatine increased I Ca-L current by many pathways rather than simple substrate for ATP synthesis.展开更多
