Methods: The subjects of the study were 120 healthy outpatients from August 2019 to August 2021. They were divided into two groups according to the random method (n=60 for each group). The capillary blood was collected in the control group and venous blood was collected in the observation group. The results of WBC, HCT, RBC, Hb, PLT, MCHC, MCV and HCT were statistically compared between the two groups. Results: WBC of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, HCT, RBC, Hb, PLT and MCHC of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, p < 0.05 (the difference was statistically significant). Compared with the control group, the MCV and HCT of the observation group had no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion: venous blood collection in blood routine test can improve the accuracy of test results, and can be the preferred collection method in blood collection with high clinical value.展开更多

Methods: from September 2020 to June 2021, 152 patients who underwent blood routine test were included in the laboratory department of our hospital. All patients collected peripheral blood and venous blood for blood routine test respectively. The blood source of peripheral blood for blood routine test was peripheral blood group, and the blood source of elbow vein blood for blood routine test was venous blood group, The differences of blood routine test results between the two groups at 0 min were compared, and the blood sources of the two groups were tested for many times at 0 min, 10 min and 30 min after blood collection. The test results were analyzed and compared, and the satisfaction of the two blood collection methods, time and pain were evaluated. Results: at 0 min of blood collection, the leukocyte count value of venous blood group was lower than that of peripheral blood group, while the erythrocyte count value, hemoglobin concentration value, platelet count value, erythrocyte backlog value and average hemoglobin concentration value of venous blood group were higher than those of peripheral blood group (P < 0.05);However, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05);The test results of peripheral blood group and venous blood group were compared for multiple tests at 0 min, 10 min and 30 min after blood collection respectively. There was no significant difference in the test results of erythrocyte count and hemoglobin concentration in peripheral blood group at each time period (P > 0.05), while the test results of leukocyte count and platelet count at 0 min were different from those at 10 min. There was significant difference in the results of 30 min test (P < 0.05), indicating that the index value will change with time;There was no significant difference in the test results of leukocyte count, erythrocyte count, hemoglobin concentration and platelet count in the venous blood group (P > 0.05), indicating that the indexes in the blood were relatively stable;Comparing the satisfaction scores of the two groups, the scores of the two groups were higher, and the satisfaction of peripheral blood was slightly higher, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion: comparing the satisfaction of the two groups of patients, the acceptability of the two blood collection methods is very high. From the analysis of the test results, on the whole, the test results of peripheral blood are slightly lower than those of venous blood. It is analyzed that the reason for this result may be that the peripheral blood causes the damage of blood cells during the extrusion process and reduces the count, and the white blood cell count. The platelet count value will change over time and affect the test results, while the venous blood test results have little difference within 30min, indicating that various indexes in venous blood are relatively stable within a certain period of time, and the accuracy of test results is higher.展开更多

In terms of project quality control, construction enterprises pay special attention to the detection results of building materials, and the detection accuracy will be affected by equipment, operation level and detection environment. In order to ensure that the use of building materials meets the corresponding standards, it is necessary to strengthen the control of detection results, and realize the control of material quality and project quality through standardized detection operation. Next, the article analyzes the key factors that affect the test results of building materials testing, and puts forward specific solutions.展开更多

Biochar is used on agricultural lands as a soil amendment to improve the fertility of the soils. Currently the most common method of producing biochar is through biochar stoves. There are two basic stove operations in the production of biochar. The first type of stove produces biochar by direct combustion of biomass. Here biomass is burnt inside a chamber in an oxygen limited environment. The resulting residue is the bio-char. The second type involves burning the biomass in one chamber and housing the biomass to be charred in the annular portion of an outer chamber. Heat is transferred from the burning fuel on the inner chamber to the material to be charred in the outer chamber. While the process of biochar production in these stoves is known, the basic principles of the stove design are not readily available. The design methodology for both the types was developed from first principles. Prototypes of both types were constructed based on the design developed and tested. The paper lists the basic principles in the design of biochar stoves and the test results.展开更多
