In this study, short wave visible–near infrared reflectance spectroscopy was evaluated for prediction of diverse soil properties related to four different soil series of several regions in Jiangxi, China. A total of 240 soil samples were collected for the calibration (n = 168) and prediction (n = 72) sets. The used wavelength range of short wave visible–near infrared reflectance spectroscopy is 325–1075 nm. Partial least squares regression and back propagation neural network were used to develop models for soil properties such as organic matter and extractable forms of calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Performance of these models was also compared and analyzed. The input of back propagation neural network was the first six principal components resulted from the principal component analysis and the optimal number of latent variables obtained from partial least squares regression. The overall results showed that the performance of partial least squares regression model was inferior to all back pro...

Visible and short wave-near infrared spectroscopy (Vis/SW-NIRS) was investigated for measurement of soil properties. Three types of pretreatments including standard normal variate (SNV), multiplicative scattering correction (MSC) and Savitzky–Golay smoothing combining first derivative were adopted to eliminate the system noises and external disturbances. Then, partial least squares (PLS) and least squares-support vector machine (LS-SVM) methods were implemented for calibration models. Simultaneously, the performance of least squares-support vector machine (LS-SVM) method was compared with three kinds of dimension reduction inputs, including principal components (PCs), latent variables (LVs), and effective wavelengths (EWs). The results indicated that all LS-SVM models outperformed PLS models. The EWs-LS-SVM models outperformed all the other models and the determination coefficient ( R Pre 2 ), and RMSEP were 0.8631 and 3.21 for organic matter (OM), 0.8203 and 17.20 for available N (N), 0.7665 and 5.50 for available P (P), 0.7273 and 15.08 for available K (K), respectively. The results indicated that Vis/SW-NIRS combined with LS-SVM could be utilised as a method for the determination of soil properties. And the EWs-LS-SVM could be very helpful for development of portable instrument of the properties of soil.

This paper describes a highly sensitive and label-free electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of 1-pyrenebutyric acid (PBA) which is based on a graphene (GS), chitosan (CS), and ionic liquid (IL) composite modified glassy carbon electrode (GS-CS-IL/GCE). The modification process was monitored by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Due to the synergistic effects of GS, CS, and IL, the biosensor exhibits excellent selectivity to PBA. The current response of the proposed immunosensor decreases linearly at two concentration ranges from 0.01 to 5 and from 5 to 150 ng mL−1 with a detection limit of 0.01 ng mL−1.

Energy resolution is an important figure of merit for TES microcalorimeter. We propose a laser system to measure the energy resolution of TES microcalorimeter with a 1550 nm laser source. Compared to method that characterizes the performance by irradiating the detector using X-ray photons from a radioactive source placed inside the refrigerator, our system is safer and more convenient. The feasibility of this system has been demonstrated in the measurement of an Al/Ti bilayer TES microcalorimeter. In this experiment, the tested detector showed a energy resolution of 72 eV in the energy range from 0.2 keV to 0.9 keV, Comment: 3 page

In order to explore the role of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in the pathogenesis of renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis, 48 Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham-operated and unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) group. On the postoperative day 1, 3, 7 and 14, the rats were killed and the kidneys were removed. The renal tubulointerstitial injury index was evaluated according to the MASSON staining. The mRNA levels of CTGF, transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), collagen I (col I), and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) were detected using reverse transcriptional-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Immunohistochemistry was performed to evaluate the protein expression of the above factors, and the relations among them were analyzed. Quantitative expression of CTGF protein in the kidneys was also assessed using Western blot. The results showed that TGF-beta1 mRNA level was increased at first day after UUO, followed by a marked elevation of CTGF mRNA level, which began to increase 3 days after UUO (P0.01). With the progression of the disease, the mRNA expression of CTGF, col I and PAI-1 was increased progressively. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the CTGF protein expression was significantly increased in fibrotic areas and tubular epithelial cells 3 days after UUO. On the post-UUO day 7, the protein level of CTGF was positively related to the renal tubulointerstitial injury index (r = 0.62, P0.01), the expression of TGF-beta1 (r = 0.85, P0.01), col I (r = 0.78, P0.01), and PAI-1 (r = 0.76, P0.01). Upon Western blot analysis, CTGF protein expression began to increase 3 days after UUO, and appeared progressively throughout the time course (P0.01, as compared with sham-operated group). It is concluded that CTGF can be induced by TGF-beta and mediate various profibrotic actions of this cytokine, such as increasing extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis and decreasing ECM degradation. The increased expression of CTGF may play a crucial role in the development and progression of tubulointerstitial fibrosis.

TEM studies on domain structure in PbTiO3 thin film show that the domain density depends on the grain size and indirectly on the film thickness. The mobility of domain walls (DWs) has been investigated by in situ TEM and mechanical dissipation techniques, and its contribution to the permittivity (ϵ) and coercive field (Ec) was analyzed. The weak pinning of DWs in SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) was further confirmed by experimental results of the voltage and frequency dependence of the fatigue as well as retention.

Electric measurements demonstrate that annealing condition, applied voltage and switching frequency have influence on the fatigue of SBT thin films. The SBT thin films annealed in air show more polarization degradation than those annealed in oxygen. The fatigue of SBT thin films increases with decreasing applied voltage and switching frequency, and the suppressed polarization caused at lower switching voltage can be recovered by switching at higher voltage. The fatigue mechanism is discussed in this paper.

A phase-slip flux qubit, exactly dual to a charge qubit, is composed of a superconducting loop interrupted by a phase-slip junction. Here we propose a tunable phase-slip flux qubit by replacing the phase-slip junction with a charge-related superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) consisting of two phase-slip junctions connected in series with a superconducting island. This charge-SQUID acts as an effective phase-slip junction controlled by the applied gate voltage and can be used to tune the energy-level splitting of the qubit. Also, we show that a large inductance inserted in the loop can reduce the inductance energy and consequently suppress the dominating flux noise of the phase-slip flux qubit. This enhanced phase-slip flux qubit is exactly dual to a transmon qubit.

A potential pathological role of angiopoietins (Ang) in glomeruli following podocyte injury-induced progressive glomerulosclerosis was explored. Eighty male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into sham operation group (Sham, n = 25), Uninephrectomy group (UPHT, n = 25) and Uninephrectomy+Daunorubicin group (DRB, n = 30). In DRB group, daunorubicin (5 mg/kg) was injected via tail vein on the 7th and 14th day after uninephrectomy. At week 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 respectively following establishment of the animal model, 5 rats in Sham group and UPHT group, and 6 in DRB group were taken respectively for determining 24-h urinary protein excretion rate (24hUPER), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (Scr). The sections of kidneys were examined by an electric microscope, PAS staining, immunohistochemical staining and in situ hybridization histochemistry. The results showed that 24hUPER, BUN and Scr in DRB group were more than those in Sham group and UPHT group at the same time points, and there was a trend towards an increase on level of GSI in DRB group from week 2 to week 8. Electric microscopy revealed that podocyte injury presented in DRB group. The expression of Ang1 mRNA and protein in glomeruli of DRB group was decreased, while the expression of Ang2 protein in glomeruli of DRB group increased. Meanwhile, the expression of Ang1 mRNA had a negative correlation with the expression of Ang2 mRNA, and the expression of Ang1 protein had a positive correlation with the expression of Ang1 mRNA, and had a negative correlation with 24hUPER, BUN, Scr, glomerular sclerotic index (GSI), the expression of Ang2 protein and CoIV protein. The expression of Ang2 protein had a positive correlation with the expression of Ang2 mRNA, and had a positive correlation with 24hUPER, BUN, Scr, GSI, the expression of CoIV protein. It was concluded that podocyte injury might lead to an alteration in the expression of Ang1 and Ang2 within glomeruli. Ang2 may get rid of inhibition from Ang1 for downregulation of the Ang1 expression, which facilitate upregulation of the Ang2 expression in glomeruli to promote progressive glomerulosclerosis in the rats.

A new, environmental friendly, polysilicate ferric manganese (PSFM) coagulant, composed of Fe, Mn and Si, was designed and developed. As part of the process, the PSFM flocs were then deposited onto an ultrafiltration (UF) membrane to increase the removal of active dyes and its antifouling properties in the presence of the active dye was tested. Influencing factors, such as dosage of coagulant and solution pH, were systematically investigated and included as the process optimization. The results show that PSFM flocs were well distributed on the membrane surface and a dense and homogeneous deposition layer was formed under optimal conditions. According to the characterization of PSFM floc by Fourier infrared (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), the major phase of PSFM floc is determined to be Mn x Fe y Si z O w (OH) i and the functional groups of this component contribute positively to the coagulation performance. The removal rate of the active yellow dye reached 86% at pH 5.0 with small and regular floc formed in the dense deposition layers. At pH 11.0 loose deposition layers were formed by large flocs and the removal of the active yellow dye reduce to 11%. Therefore, PSFM has a commendable potential to be used for producing a kind of deposited UF membrane with an excellent performance by controlling the forms of flocs and the deposition layers, which is the key mechanism to achieve a high efficiency for removal of active yellow dye Refereed/Peer-reviewed

The effects of coagulant dosage, alkalinity, turbidity, ionic strength, and dissolved organic matter (DOM) on the removal of sulfadimethoxazole (SMZ) and oxytetracycline (OTC) by coagulation were studied and the reaction mechanisms of the coagulation process were revealed in this research. From our results, alkalinity, turbidity, ionic strength, and DOM had different effects on the removal of antibiotics. The SMZ and OTC removals were improved with increase in poly-aluminum chloride (PACl) dosage, whereas the turbidity had less influence on the removal of SMZ and OTC because the adsorption of SMZ and OTC to kaolin was low, confirmed by a control when no PACl added. The hydrolysate of PACl played a more important role than turbidity in SMZ and OTC removals. The SMZ and OTC removals were significantly increased with the increase in alkalinity, which provided a suitable condition in situ for coagulant to form more optimal species of hydrolysate. The ionic strength, which was adjusted by NaNO3, also had a positive effect on the removal of SMZ but no obvious effect on the OTC removal. Furthermore, DOM had a higher effect on the removal of SMZ than that of OTC. In another word, if a water plant wants to improve the removal of SMZ and OTC by coagulation unit, PACl hydrolysate, alkalinity, and DOM are the three key factors to be considered primarily. Moreover, an experiment for the recovery of antibiotics from the flocs was done and the results showed that OTC and SMZ were removed by different mechanisms. The OTC was removed via complexation formed through the reaction between OTC and coagulant while the SMZ was removed through the pathway of adsorption and inter-particle bridging to the surface of coagulant hydrolysate Refereed/Peer-reviewed

Conventionally, resin fractionation (RF) method has been widely used to characterize dissolved organic matter (DOM) found in different source waters based on general and broad DOM fractions grouping. In this study, a new refined method using multistep, microvolume resin fractionation combined with excitation emission matrix fluorescence spectroscopy (MSM-RF-EEMS) was developed for further isolation and characterization of subfractions within the primary DOM fractions separated from using the conventional RF method. Subsequently, its feasibility in indicating the occurrence of urban pollution in source waters was also assessed. Results from using the new MSM-RF-EEMS method strongly illustrated that several organic subfractions still exist within the regarded primary pure hydrophobic acid (HoA) fraction including the humic- and fulvic-like organic matters, tryptophan- and tyrosine-like proteins. It was found that by using the MSM-RF-EEMS method, the organic subfractions present within the primary DOM fraction could be easily identified and characterized. Further validation on the HoA fraction using the MSM-RF-EEMS method revealed that the constant association of EEM peak T1 (tryptophan) fraction could specifically be used to indicate the occurrence of urban pollution in source water. The correlation analysis on the presence of EEM peak T2 (tyrosine) fraction could be used as a supplementary proof to further verify the presence of urban pollution in source waters. These findings on using the presence of EEM peaks T1 and T2 within the primary HoA fraction would be significant and useful for developing a sensory device for online water quality monitoring.
