FP-growth is a veryefficient algorithm for frequent pattern mining. However, it still suffers from creating conditional FP-tree separatelyand recursively during the mining process. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm, called Least-Item-First Pat-tern Growth (LIFPG), for mining frequent patterns. LIFPG mines frequent patterns directly in Trans-tree withoutusing any additional data structures. The key idea is that least items are always considered first when the current pat-tern growth. By this way, conditional sub-tree can be created directly in Trans-tree by adjusting node-links and re-counting counts of some nodes. Experiments show that, in comparison with FP-Growth, our algorithm is about fourtimes faster and saves half of memory; it also has good time and space scalability with the number of transactions,and has an excellent performance in dense dataset mining as well.展开更多

They could covalently bind with protein, phospholipids and DNA, further disrupting the normal function of liver, lung and brain.Derivation process was generally conducted during pretreatment before detection and quantification of 4-HHE and 4-HNE. However, the derivation procedures were time consuming and chemical degradation may occur during the process. Hence, this paper aims to establish a simple solid phase extractionhigh performance liquid chromatography(SPE-HPLC) method to determine the 4-HHE and 4-HNE contents in thermally treated soybean oil. C18 solid phase extraction was applied in the pretreatment process. Firstly, the reliability of the method was evaluated. Good linearity was observed in the range of 0.1–0.5 μg/m L and 0.5–10 μg/m L for 4-HHE and 4-HNE. The limit of detection(LOD) of 4-HHE and 4-HNE were 0.0486 and 0.0129 μg/m L, respectively. And the limit of quantitation(LOQ) of4-HHE and 4-HNE were 0.1458 and 0.0431 μg/m L, respectively. Recovery rate were in the range of89.11%–91.58% and 71.83%–79.40% for 4-HHE and 4-HNE, respectively. The method achieved the extraction, purification and detection of 4-HHE and 4-HNE simultaneously and had the advantages of simple operation, effectiveness, high precision, good repeatability. Then, the method was applied to monitor the concentrations of 4-HHE and 4-HNE in soybean oil heated at 180 °C for 40 h. The contents of 4-HHE and 4-HNE were 0–0.32 μg/g and 0–6.97 μg/g, respectively, which provided guidance for evaluating health risks of thermally treated soybean oil during heating.展开更多
Molecular dynamic simulation was employed to predict the melting points Tm of TNAD/HMX, TNAD/RDX, TNAD/DINA, and TNAD/DNP systems (tans-1,4,5,8- tetranitro-1,4,5,8-tetraazadacalin (TNAD), dinitropiperazine (DNP),...Molecular dynamic simulation was employed to predict the melting points Tm of TNAD/HMX, TNAD/RDX, TNAD/DINA, and TNAD/DNP systems (tans-1,4,5,8- tetranitro-1,4,5,8-tetraazadacalin (TNAD), dinitropiperazine (DNP), cyclotetramethylenetetranitroamine (HMX), cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX), and N-nitrodihydroxyethylaminedinitrate (DINA)). Tm was determined from the inflexion point on the curve of mean specific volume vs. temperature. The result shows that the Tm values of TNAD/HMX, TNAD/RDX, and TNAD/DINA systems are 500, 536, and 488 K, respectively. The TNAD/DNP system has no obvious Tm value, which shows the system is insoluble. Using Tm, the solubility of the four systems was analyzed. The radial distribution functions of the four systems were analyzed and the main intermolecular forces between TNAD and other energetic components are short-range interactions. The better the solubility is, the stronger the intermoleenlar interaction is. In addition, the force field energy at different temperature was also analyzed to predict Tm of the four systems.展开更多

Eight days after treatment with various concentrations of c9,t11-CLA, as mentioned above, the inhibition rates were 5.9 %, 20.2 %,75.6 % and 82.4 %, respectively. The frequency of apoptosis on SGC-7901 cells induced by different concentrations of c9, t11-CLA (except for 25 μmol@L-1, 24 h) was significantly greater than that in the negative control (P<0.01). To further investigate the influence of the cell cycle progression, we found that apoptosis induced by c9, t11-CLA may be involved in blocking the cell cycle of SGC-7901 cells. Immunocytochemical staining demonstrated that SGC-7901 cells preincubated in media supplemented with different c9, t11-CLA concentrations for various time periods significantly decreased the expressions of ki67 (the expression rates were 18.70-3.20 %, at 24 h and 8.10-0.20 % at 48 h, respectively), bd-2 (4.30-0.15 % at 24 h and 8.05 %-0 at 48 h),and c-myc(4.85-2.20 % at 24 h and 4.75-0.30 % at 48 h) as compared with those in the controls (the expressions of ki67, bcl-2, and c-mycwere 15.1% at 24 h and 13.5 % at 48 h, 6.80 % at 24 h and 8.00 % at 48 h,5.50 % at 24 h and 5.30 % at 48 h, respectively) (P<0.01),whereas the expressions of Fas were increased (0.60-2.75 %,24 h and 0.45-5.95 %, 48 h).CONCLUSION: The growth and proliferation of SGC-7901 cells are inhibited by cg, t11-CLA via blocking the cell cycle,pathways of bcl-2-associated mitochondria with reduced expression of bcl-2 and Fas-associated death domain protein (FADD) with enhanced expression of Fas. But expression of c-myc on SGC-7901 cells is lower than that in negative control, which needs to be studied further.展开更多

Both the pseudo first-order and the pseudo second-order kinetic models well described the kinetics curves, and DDE was more readily removed by PAC. In isotherm tests, both Freundlich and Modified Freundlich isotherms fitted the experimental data well. PAC exhibited a higher adsorption capacity for DDE than for HDE, which could be ascribed to the difference in their hydrophobicity. The calculated thermodynamic parameters(ΔG^0, ΔH^0, and ΔS^0) indicated an exothermic and spontaneous adsorption process. PAC dosage, p H, and natural organic matter(NOM) presence were found to influence the adsorption process. With increasing PAC dosage, the pseudo first-order and pseudo second-order rate constants both increased. The value of p H had little influence on HDE or DDE molecules but altered the surface charge of PAC, and the maximum adsorption capacity occurred at p H 9. The presence of NOM, especially the fraction with molecular weight less than1 k Dalton, hindered the adsorption. The study showed that preloaded NOM impaired the adsorption capacity of HDE or DDE more severely than simultaneously fed NOM did.展开更多

All dyad and triads sequence distributions, the number-average sequence length and the sequence concentration of the copolymers were calculated according to 13C-NMR spectra. The influences of temperature and initial molar ratio of butadiene to isoprene (Bd to Ip) on the distribution of the chain segments in the TBIR copolymers were discussed. The correlation of copolymer compositions and thermal properties were also evaluated, which facilitated the understanding of controlling the degree of crystallinity and the transition tempera^re by changing Bd content and temperature.展开更多

Monomers reactivity ratios were calculated based on the Kelen-Tiid6s (K-T) method and the Mao-Huglin (M-H) method. The influence of temperature on copolymer composition and polymerization rate was discussed in detail. The increase of reaction temperature brought the decrease of butadiene reactivity ratio rBd and supplied an effective adjustment on copolymers' composition distribution.展开更多

Trans-1,4-poly(butadiene-co-isoprene) multi-block copolymer rubbers(TBIR) exhibit outstanding fatigue resistance, low heat build-up and good abrasion resistance, and are expected to be desirable candidate for high performance tire. Study on the influence of TBIR with different molecular weights on the structure and properties of TBIR and natural rubber(NR)/TBIR blends is essential to understand its contribution to the greatly improved dynamic properties of the rubber vulcanizates. TBIR with different molecular weights characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, GPC, and DSC were highly trans-1,4-copolymers with similar chain sequence distribution and crystalline trans-1,4-polyisoprene(TPI) blocks. The green strength and modulus of TBIR increased with the increasing molecular weight.The NR/TBIR compounds filled with 40 phr carbon black were chemically cured by sulfur for the preparation of NR/TBIR vulcanizates.The compatibility between NR and TBIR, filler distribution, crosslinking bond and density, and properties of NR/TBIR vulcanizates were studied. The NR/TBIR vulcanizates showed increasing tensile strength, hardness, modulus, rebound, abrasion resistance, and flexural fatigue properties with increasing molecular weight of TBIR. Furthermore, they presented significant improvement in flexural fatigue resistance when compared with that of NR vulcanizate. The contribution mechanism of TBIR on the NR/TBIR blends was discussed. The TBIR with a wide range of molecular weight are ideal rubbers for high performance tires.展开更多

The solubilities were calculated by λh method, in which new parameters were introduced to express the activity coefficients of trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol, and determined from the experimental data. The new parameters provide good calculated results. The experimental data were also correlated with a simple model, and results were compared with present λh model.展开更多

文摘The solubility of trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol in water, methyl acetate, acetic ester, propyl acetate, butyl acetate, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, 2-pentanone and acetoacetic ester was measured at temperatures ranging from about 300 K to 330 K, using a modification of the experimental technique of laser monitoring observation system. The solubilities were calculated by λh method, in which new parameters were introduced to express the activity coefficients of trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol, and determined from the experimental data. The new parameters provide good calculated results. The experimental data were also correlated with a simple model, and results were compared with present λh model.

文摘Using a laser observation technique,the solubilities of trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol in butyl acetate+wa- ter were measured at the temperature range from 298.15K to 323.15K by a synthetic method at atmospheric pres- sure.It is shown that the solubilities of trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol in butyl acetate+water were affected greatly by the proportion of butyl acetate and water,and presented maximum value at given temperature.The UNIFAC model was used to correlate the experimental data.The average relative deviation(ARD)between experimental and calculated values is 3.03%.
