The expression changes of the genes during anagen and telogen stages were compared, and the results showed that the expression of all Type I IRS Keratin genes performed in groin showed significant decrease from anagen stage to telogen stage （P 0.05）, the expression changes of other genes were two times higher, except KRT25 （LOC443079）.

[Method] The test-tube seedlings were produced from seeds of Atractylodis Lances. At the same time, the effects of 6-BA, NAA and KT on the proliferation of aseptic seedling was studied through the orthogonal test. Effect of NAA concentration on the rooting of aseptic seedling was studied through nine types of light substrate groups, which consist of peat soil, fine sand and cotton seed hull, and their effects on Atractylodes lances growth were studied on with orthogonal design. [Result] The culture medium suitable for the proliferation of the Atractylodes lances tube seedling was MS＋6-BA 1.0 mg/L＋NAA 0.4 mg/L＋KT 0,4 mg/L. And the medium suitable for rooting was 1/2MS＋NAA 0.5 mg/L. The optimal ratio of soil, riversand and cotton seed hull was 3：3：2. [Conclusion] The research selected optimum culture medium, rooting medium and ratio of substrate, which provided technical guidance for laboratorial preservation of germplasm resource of Atractylodes lances and industrialization of its seedling production.展开更多

The ef-fect of different lance heights on the cavity shape was investigated using the volume of fluid （VOF） method. Numerical simulation results can reflect the actual molten bath surface waves impinged by the supersonic oxygen jets. With increasing lance height, the cavity depth de-creases, and the cavity area, varying like a parabola, increases and then decreases. The cavity area maximizes at the lance height of 1.3 m. Under the three different lance heights simulated in this study, all of the largest impact velocities at the molten bath surface are between 50 m/s and 100 m/s.展开更多

Lance, the oldest of the Loud family children, is on film both flamboyant and effusive, but at the same time-through judicious editing--an asexual creature with no romantic or sexual relationships. This paper considers Lance in the context of Gay representation in media of the 1970s, and then explores the struggle of the filmmakers--and the Loud family themselves--to control and contain the public perception of Lance. The often vague and allusive comments by Lance＇s parents and even Lance himself suggest a character that is at once channing, witty, and vibrantly alive, yet also pretentious and deceitful. The final argument is that these complicit efforts to avoid controversy actually engender it, turning Lance Loud into a figure of mystery and conjecture ... and the undisputed star of the series.展开更多

The effect of fin geometry （fin spacing, fin height, wave height and wave length） on the enhanced heat transfer and pressure drops are investigated. Results show that there is no significant variation off factor for water and liquid R134a at constant Reynolds number. However variations inj factor were observed at constant Reynolds number.
