[Method]2% Imidacloprid GR were selected and applied in the soil for field efficacy trial. [Result] The optimum dosage of 2% imidacloprid GR was 30 kg/hm^2（ active ingredient 600 g）,which can be mixed with fertilizer（ 30 kg pesticide and 40-80 kg fertilizer per hm^2） once combined with sugarcane planting management or big ridging during February and June. The control effects against C. lanigera and B. serratus could be more than 98. 2% and 81. 1%,respectively. The actual yield and sugar content in various pesticide treatments were increased by 33 390 kg/hm^2 and 6. 6% respectively compared to blank control. [Conclusion]2% imidacloprid GR has good control effects on C. lanigera and B. serratus. It is a new pesticide with ideal sustained-release,long-lasting and low-toxin effects against C. lanigera and B. serratus. Therefore,it could be used alternatively with other pesticides,to delay production and development of drug resistance.展开更多

The results showed that sustained-release calcium hydroxide promoted digestion and absorption of nutri- ents, especially calcium and crude protein. The digestibility of calcium and crude protein was increased from 89.8% and 93.8% to 41.0% and 65.2%, respec- tively. Sustained-release hydrochloric acid was adverse to digestion and absorption of nutrients, especially calcium and crude protein. The digestibility of calcium and crude protein were decreased from 55.5% and 84.9% to 28.4% and 68.7%, respectively. The promotion effects of sustained-release hydrochloride on diges- tion lasted for 3 -4 d. Therefore, sustained-release calcium hydroxide promoted digestion and absorption of calcium and protein, while digestion and absorption of fat remained at a high level no matter what the condition was. Consequently, increasing the intake of fat would cause over nutrition. However, taking sustained-re- lease hydrochloric acid would reduce nutrient digestion and absorption.展开更多

Methods: 260 elderly patients whose age above 60 years old with coronary heart disease and hypertension were selected and analyzed. The research time span was from August 2019 to April 2020. The patients were randomly divided into control group and observation group with 130 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in general data after statistical analysis. The treatment intervention program formulated by the control group was nifedipine sustained-release tablets, while the treatment intervention program formulated by the observation group was combined with enalapril on the basis of control group. The clinical value of nifedipine sustained-release tablets combined with enalapril was compared in the evaluation of condition control and safety of the two treatment regimens. Results: after the intervention of the two treatment schemes, the total effective rate of disease control treatment evaluation of elderly patients with coronary heart disease and hypertension was higher than that of the control group, and there were significant differences between groups, and statistical significance was indicated after analysis and calculation, (P < 0.05). There were no serious adverse reactions in the two groups during the treatment, there was no significant difference in the data between the groups, and there was no statistical significance after calculation and analysis, (P > 0.05). Conclusion: nifedipine sustained-release tablets combined with enalapril in the treatment of elderly patients with coronary heart disease and hypertension can achieve better clinical efficacy than use nifedipine sustained-release tablets alone, and will not increase the probability of adverse reactions, can improve the quality of life of patients, has the value of popularization and application.展开更多

文摘Oseltamivir phosphate(OP),renowned as one of the most effective drugs for influenza treatment,encounters several challenges,including poor stability,difficulty in swallowing,and a bitter taste,thereby limiting its compliance,particularly among children.Consequently,this study aimed to devise a novel sustained-release suspension of OP employing an ion exchange resin as a carrier to address these challenges.The OP-drug resin complex(OP-DRC)was synthesized utilizing ion exchange technology,while OP-coated microcapsules(OP-CM)were fabricated via the emulsion-evaporation method.The optimization of the formulation process for the OP sustained-release suspension was achieved through a combination of single-factor experimentation and orthogonal experimental design.Furthermore,the drug release kinetics and pharmacokinetic properties of the sustained-release suspension were thoroughly evaluated both in vitro and in vivo.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),and attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy(ATR-FTIR)analyses confirmed the formation of drug-resin complexes via ionic bonding.The in vitro cumulative release rates were found to be 16%(1 h),53%(6 h),and 84%(24 h),respectively.Notably,the self-made sustained-release suspension exhibited an extended half-life(21.518 h),delayed time to peak concentration(T_(max))(6 h),and reduced maximum plasma concentration(C_(max))(0.397μg/mL)in comparison to commercial granules(half-life=8.466 h;T_(max)=2 h;C_(max)=0.631μg/mL).Additionally,the area under the curve(AUC)indicated that the bioavailability of the self-made OP suspension surpassed that of the commercial OP granules by 101%.These findings underscored the successful development of an oral OP sustained-release suspension characterized by stability,tastelessness,ease of swallowing,convenient administration,and sustained-release properties,thereby potentially enhancing drug compliance among children.

文摘Rabbits with the body weight of （2.0 ± 0.5 ） kg were chosen, to study the effects of sustained-release calcium hydroxide and sustained-release hydro- chloric acid on nutrient digestion and absorption of rabbits. The results showed that sustained-release calcium hydroxide promoted digestion and absorption of nutri- ents, especially calcium and crude protein. The digestibility of calcium and crude protein was increased from 89.8% and 93.8% to 41.0% and 65.2%, respec- tively. Sustained-release hydrochloric acid was adverse to digestion and absorption of nutrients, especially calcium and crude protein. The digestibility of calcium and crude protein were decreased from 55.5% and 84.9% to 28.4% and 68.7%, respectively. The promotion effects of sustained-release hydrochloride on diges- tion lasted for 3 -4 d. Therefore, sustained-release calcium hydroxide promoted digestion and absorption of calcium and protein, while digestion and absorption of fat remained at a high level no matter what the condition was. Consequently, increasing the intake of fat would cause over nutrition. However, taking sustained-re- lease hydrochloric acid would reduce nutrient digestion and absorption.
文摘Herein,3‑aminopropyltriethoxysilane(APTES)was used to modify F‑containing silica slag(SS)by simple grafting and served as a multifunctional barrier layer.The amino group(—NH2)in the amino‑modified SS(NH2‑SS)forms ligand bonds or hydrogen bonds with sulfur ions in lithium polysulfides(LiPSs),thus inhibiting the shuttle effect.Electrochemical analyses demonstrated that lithium‑sulfur(Li‑S)batteries employing the NH2‑SS interlayer exhibited discharge specific capacities of 1048 and 789 mAh·g^(-1) at 0.2C and 2C,respectively,and even at 4C,the initial discharge specific capacity remained at 590 mAh·g^(-1),outperforming the Li‑S battery with unmodified SS as the interlayer.

文摘The in-flight heating process of cerium dioxide(CeO_(2))powders was investigated through experiments and numerical simulations.In the experiment,CeO_(2)powder(average size of 30μm)was injected into radio-frequency(RF)argon plasma,and the temperatures were measured using a DPV-2000 monitor.A model combining the electromagnetism,thermal flow,and heat transfer characteristics of powder during in-flight heating in argon plasma was proposed.The melting processes of CeO_(2)powders of different diameters,with and without thermal resistance effect,were investigated.Results show that the heating process of CeO_(2)powder particles consists of three main stages,one of which is relevant to a dimensionless parameter known as the Biot number.When the Biot value≥0.1,thermal resistance increases significantly,especially for the larger powders.The predicted temperature of the particles at the outlet(1800–2880 K)is in good agreement with the experimental result.
文摘Chitosan(CTS)was grafted onto the surface of amino‑functionalized silver chloride silicon dioxide(AgCl@SiO_(2)‑NH_(2))cores to obtain AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS hybrid nanoparticles.The as‑obtained AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS nanoparticles were chlorinated by NaClO solution to get AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑based chloramine nano‑hybrid materials,denoted as AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.A transmission electron microscope was used to observe the morphology of the as‑prepared samples AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS and AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.At the same time,an X‑ray diffractometer and an infrared spectroscope were utilized to characterize their crystal and chemical structures.Besides,ζpotentials were measured to elucidate the surface modification of AgCl nanoparticles by—NH_(2),the antibacterial mechanism of AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl was investigated by scanning electron microscopy,and Escherichia coli(E.coli)and Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)were used as the to‑be‑tested strains to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of samples AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS and AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.Findings demonstrate that sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS exhibits a chain‑like structure ascribed to the interaction between—NH_(2),and each AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS hybrid nanoparticle contains several AgCl cores.In the meantime,sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl exhibits excellent antibacterial activity against E.coli and S.aureus,which is attributed to the synergistic antibacterial effect of Ag^(+)and Cl^(-).Sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl with a dosage of 640.00μg·mL^(-1) could completely kill the two kinds of tested bacteria in 12 h of incubation;it retains a high antibacterial efficiency even after 10 cycles of antibacterial tests.

文摘Rechargeable Zn/Sn-air batteries have received considerable attention as promising energy storage devices.However,the electrochemical performance of these batteries is significantly constrained by the sluggish electrocatalytic reaction kinetics at the cathode.The integration of light energy into Zn/Sn-air batteries is a promising strategy for enhancing their performance.However,the photothermal and photoelectric effects generate heat in the battery under prolonged solar irradiation,leading to air cathode instability.This paper presents the first design and synthesis of Ni_(2)-1,5-diamino-4,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone(Ni_(2)DDA),an electronically conductiveπ-d conjugated metal-organic framework(MOF).Ni_(2)DDA exhibits both photoelectric and photothermal effects,with an optical band gap of~1.14 eV.Under illumination,Ni_(2)DDA achieves excellent oxygen evolution reaction performance(with an overpotential of 245 mV vs.reversible hydrogen electrode at 10 mA cm^(−2))and photothermal stability.These properties result from the synergy between the photoelectric and photothermal effects of Ni_(2)DDA.Upon integration into Zn/Sn-air batteries,Ni_(2)DDA ensures excellent cycling stability under light and exhibits remarkable performance in high-temperature environments up to 80℃.This study experimentally confirms the stable operation of photo-assisted Zn/Sn-air batteries under high-temperature conditions for the first time and provides novel insights into the application of electronically conductive MOFs in photoelectrocatalysis and photothermal catalysis.

Methods: 260 elderly patients whose age above 60 years old with coronary heart disease and hypertension were selected and analyzed. The research time span was from August 2019 to April 2020. The patients were randomly divided into control group and observation group with 130 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in general data after statistical analysis. The treatment intervention program formulated by the control group was nifedipine sustained-release tablets, while the treatment intervention program formulated by the observation group was combined with enalapril on the basis of control group. The clinical value of nifedipine sustained-release tablets combined with enalapril was compared in the evaluation of condition control and safety of the two treatment regimens. Results: after the intervention of the two treatment schemes, the total effective rate of disease control treatment evaluation of elderly patients with coronary heart disease and hypertension was higher than that of the control group, and there were significant differences between groups, and statistical significance was indicated after analysis and calculation, (P < 0.05). There were no serious adverse reactions in the two groups during the treatment, there was no significant difference in the data between the groups, and there was no statistical significance after calculation and analysis, (P > 0.05). Conclusion: nifedipine sustained-release tablets combined with enalapril in the treatment of elderly patients with coronary heart disease and hypertension can achieve better clinical efficacy than use nifedipine sustained-release tablets alone, and will not increase the probability of adverse reactions, can improve the quality of life of patients, has the value of popularization and application.

文摘Beam-tracking simulations have been extensively utilized in the study of collective beam instabilities in circular accelerators.Traditionally,many simulation codes have relied on central processing unit(CPU)-based methods,tracking on a single CPU core,or parallelizing the computation across multiple cores via the message passing interface(MPI).Although these approaches work well for single-bunch tracking,scaling them to multiple bunches significantly increases the computational load,which often necessitates the use of a dedicated multi-CPU cluster.To address this challenge,alternative methods leveraging General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units(GPGPU)have been proposed,enabling tracking studies on a standalone desktop personal computer(PC).However,frequent CPU-GPU interactions,including data transfers and synchronization operations during tracking,can introduce communication overheads,potentially reducing the overall effectiveness of GPU-based computations.In this study,we propose a novel approach that eliminates this overhead by performing the entire tracking simulation process exclusively on the GPU,thereby enabling the simultaneous processing of all bunches and their macro-particles.Specifically,we introduce MBTRACK2-CUDA,a Compute Unified Device Architecture(CUDA)ported version of MBTRACK2,which facilitates efficient tracking of single-and multi-bunch collective effects by leveraging the full GPU-resident computation.

文摘Kagome magnets are of growing interest due to their topological electronic structures and unconventional magnetic behavior.Here,we report on the anomalous Hall effect(AHE)in the kagome ferromagnet MgMn_(6)Sn_(6),which has a Curie temperature of~290 K and an in-plane easy magnetization axis.Magnetotransport measurements show a positive magnetoresistance(MR)below 50 K,which becomes negative at higher temperatures.An intrinsic anomalous Hall conductivity of 114 S·cm^(-1)is observed in MgMn_(6)Sn_(6) single crystals,consistent with ab initio calculations.Moreover,theoretical predictions indicate that shifting the Fermi level(EF)upward by~70 meV could enhance the AHE to~528 S·cm^(-1).These results position MgMn_(6)Sn_(6) as a promising and tunable platform for exploring topological magnetism and related electronic phenomena.

文摘[Objectives]To explore the control mode of farmland drainage pollutants and investigate the effects of ecological ditch and wetland on reducing farmland drainage pollutants in Hetao Irrigation District.[Methods]Based on the demonstration construction project of the ecological ditch-constructed wetland system in the Hetao Irrigation District,an experimental study was conducted from July to September 2023 to investigate the interception and purification effects of ecological ditches,constructed wetlands,and the combined ecological ditch-constructed wetland system on farmland drainage pollutants.Key water quality parameters measured included total nitrogen(TN)concentration and total phosphorus(TP)concentration.[Results]Different treatment modes of ecological ditches and constructed wetlands have a certain removal effect on nitrogen and phosphorus pollutants in water bodies.The ecological ditches treated with Astragalus laxmannii,Melilotus officinalis,Medicago sativa,bio-ball substrate,and bio-sheet substrate showed reduction efficiencies for TN and TP of 21.09% and 23.84%,12.06% and 26.67%,20.08% and 34.15%,23.65% and 20.56%,and 19.92% and 25.83%,respectively.The emergent plant area showed reduction efficiencies of 24.28%for TN and 17.89%for TP,while the submerged plant area achieved a reduction efficiency of 10.21%for both TN and TP.Among the different treatment modes,the ecological ditch with M.sativa performed better in TP removal,whereas the bio-ball substrate treatment mode showed higher effectiveness in TN removal.In addition,the emergent plant area exhibited better TP removal performance,while the submerged plant area was more effective in TN removal.The combined system of ecological ditch and constructed wetland achieved removal rates of 37.55% for TN and 11.47% for TP.It effectively facilitates the step-by-step interception and adsorption purification of pollutants,thereby showing significant removal and purification effects on nitrogen and phosphorus contaminants.This contributes to mitigating agricultural non-point source pollution.[Conclusions]The combined ecological ditch-constructed wetland system serves dual functions of agricultural drainage and pollutant interception and purification.It reduces the pollution load of farmland drainage on receiving water bodies to some extent and mitigates agricultural non-point source pollution.Therefore,it is a relatively suitable technology for managing agricultural non-point source pollution in the Hetao Irrigation District.

文摘The effect of adding hydroxycinnamic acids(caffeic acid,sinapic acid,p-coumaric acid and chlorogenic acid)in Cabernet Sauvignon dry red wine before and after fermentation was investigated,taking into account the color parameters,anthocyanin content,and overall polyphenol levels in the wine samples.The copigmentation effect of malvidin-3-Oglucoside and sinapic acid was further explored in model solution and through theoretical calculations.The results indicated that the addition of hydroxycinnamic acids significantly enhanced the wine's color with sinapic acid(before the fermentation)showing the most pronounced color protection effect.Compared to control samples,the addition of hydroxycinnamic acids resulted in a 36%increase in total phenolic content and a 28% increase in total anthocyanin content.Thermodynamic analysis revealed that the interaction between sinapic acid and malvidin-3-O-glucoside was spontaneous and exothermic.Theoretical studies identified hydrogen bonding(HB)and dispersion forces as the main primary stabilizing forces,with the carboxyl group of sinapic acid playing a critical role while the anthocyanin backbone also influenced the interaction.

文摘Stable isotope analysis of water(δD and δ^(18)O)is widely used to trace water cycle processes in aquatic ecosystems,based on the established assumption that biological activity does not cause isotopic fractionation of water.Here,we found that phytoplankton photosynthesis elevated ambient water δ^(18)O and δD values,a conclusion supported by a large-scale survey across extensive spatiotemporal environmental gradients and further confirmed by a laboratory culture experiment.This biological effect depended on phytoplankton biomass and light utilization efficiency and could result in a deviation of at least 16.7% in the slope of the water δD-δ^(18)O regression line.We termed this phenomenon the“biological evaporation effect”.Given the potential universality of this effect across aquatic ecosystems,our findings challenge the conventional paradigm in isotope hydrology.

文摘Benzalkonium chloride(BAC)is widely employed as a broad-spectrum biocide and has emerged as a significant environmental pollutant.Polymyxin B(PB)serves as the last-line defense for the treatment of Gram-negative pathogens.Previous studies reported that BAC-adapted Pseudomonas aeruginosa increased the tolerance to PB.Herein,we present the novel finding that the combination of BAC and PB exhibited synergistic antibacterial effects against P.aeruginosa.Time-killing assay demonstrated a significant reduction in bacterial cell viability.Scanning electron microscopy,zeta potential analysis,hydrophobicity measurements,and fluorescence probe analyses collectively revealed severe disruption of the cell envelope and membrane potential induced by the combination of BAC and PB.Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the BAC-PB combination notably downreg-ulated the expression of genes involved in lipid A modification and cell envelope production,including phoPQ,pmrAB,bamABCDE,lptABCDEG,lolB,yidC,and murJ.Additionally,the combination group exhibited augmented production of reactive oxygen species and diminished ATP synthesis.The expression of the genes associated with substance metabolism and energy generation was significantly impeded.This study provides significant implica-tions for the interactions of biocides and antibiotics on Gram-negative pathogens,while also addressing antibiotic resistance and developing the external treatment strategy for Pseudomonas-infected wounds and burns.

文摘Lattice materials have demonstrated promising potential in engineering applications owing to their exceptional lightweight,high specific strength,and tunable mechanical properties.However,the traditional homogenization methods based on the classical elasticity theory struggle to accurately describe the non-classical mechanical behaviors of lattice materials,especially when dealing with complex unit-cell geometries featured by non-symmetric configurations or non-single central node connections.In response to this limitation,this study establishes a generalized homogenization model based on the micropolar theory framework,employing Hill's boundary conditions to precisely predict the equivalent moduli of complex lattice materials.By introducing the independent rotational degree of freedom(DOF)characteristic of the micropolar theory,the proposed model successfully overcomes the limitation of conventional methods in accurately describing the asymmetric deformation and scale effects.We initially calculate the constitutive relations of two-dimensional(2D)cross-shaped multi-node chiral lattices and subsequently extend the method to three-dimensional(3D)lattices,successfully predicting the mechanical properties of both traditional and eccentric body-centered cubic(BCC)lattices.The theoretical model is validated through the finite element numerical verification which shows excellent consistency with the theoretical predictions.A further parametric study investigates the influence of geometric parameters,revealing the underlying size-effect mechanism.This paper provides a reliable theoretical tool for the design and property optimization of complex lattice materials.
