Precise quantification of the antibacterial activity of chitosan by NB medium neutralizer

In the present research,nutrient broth(NB)medium was identified to be able to neutralize the antibac-terial activity of chitosan and its derivatives.Therefore,an improved test method independent of NB medium was proposed to precisely quantify the antibacterial effectiveness and efficiency of chitosan.The minimum bactericidal concentration(MBC)of chitosan was 60 μg mL-1 against S.aureus and E.coli,and 0.01％(w/v)chitosan could kill 100％of bacteria within 3 min.From another point of view,the neutralizing efficiency of NB could be tripled by adding 25 g L-1 of sodium chloride.Then the neutraliz-ing mechanism of NB medium was ascribed to flocculation between chitosan and protein.Adding extra sodium chloride could significantly reduce the size of floccules,and smaller floccules would lose the ability of binding with bacteria directly,showing higher neutralizing rate on the macro scale.     

双波长褪色分光光度法测定盐酸美西律

建立了一种快速、灵敏测定药物中盐酸美西律的双波长分光光度法。在弱碱性溶液中,虎红与盐酸美西律反应生成离子缔合物,使溶液发生褪色现象,光谱曲线上呈现2个较强的负吸收峰,它们分别位于472和560 nm,在此2个波长处,盐酸美西律的线性范围为0.04~2.6 mg/L,表观摩尔吸光系数(κ)分别为5.87×10⁴(472 nm)和3.59×10⁴ L/(mol·cm)(560 nm),检出限为0.033(472 nm)和0.035 mg/L(560 nm)。用双波长法测定时,其表观摩尔吸光系数(κ)达9.46×10⁴ L/(mol·cm),检出限为0.017 mg/L。双波长法用于盐酸美西律药片测定,加标回收率为97.7%~103%,相对标准偏差(RSD)为2.2%~2.6%。     

基于混合模式快速电荷平衡的神经刺激器

设计实现了一种可用于脊髓神经刺激器的多通道大电流神经刺激器。提出将电极短接和插入短电流脉冲相结合的混合模式,在大电流下,能更加快速地实现电荷平衡。电路设计上,将ADC动态比较器的回踢噪声消除技术应用于神经刺激器,使得动态比较器在输入压差较小时能够输出正确的比较结果,从而将电极上残留电压保持在更安全的范围内。基于CSMC 0.25 μm BCD工艺进行设计与仿真,结果表明,在单向且最大刺激电流为4 mA、刺激脉宽为60 μs、刺激周期为750 μs的条件下,该15 V、16路神经刺激器能实现±50 mV安全电压的有源电荷平衡。     

等温退火对8030铝合金导线组织性能的影响

研究了不同等温退火工艺对8030铝合金导线组织及性能的影响。结果表明:等温退火前后合金均由α-Al基体和Al₆Fe相组成。在同一等温温度下,随着等温时间的延长组织逐渐趋于均匀化;同一等温时间下,随着等温温度的升高,组织趋于均匀化的时间缩短。经过等温退火处理后铝合金导线的导电率均有所提高,在470 ℃均匀化退火24 h后再经240 ℃等温4 h,合金导电率达到最高值57.21%IACS,比未经热处理试样的导电率提高了2.4%IACS。经过等温退火处理后铝合金导线的硬度及抗拉强度均有所降低,塑性大幅度提高。在470 ℃均匀化退火24 h后再经260 ℃等温8 h,合金的伸长率最高可达23.64%。热处理前后合金均为塑性断裂。     

How does time spent on WeChat bolster subjective well-being through social integration and social capital?

Although WeChat has recently spawned significant resolutions in technology-mediated social contact and interpersonal communication, the research regarding the social and psychological impacts of the newly emerging technology is relatively few. The primary purpose of the current empirical research is to unearth whether and how WeChat interaction could enhance overseas students’ sense of subjective well-being by concentrating on social integration, bridging relationships, and bonding relationships. Using web-based data of 228 Chinese subjects, the obtained results reveal that the time spent on WeChat significantly and directly impacts users’ subjective well-being. Additionally, the findings demonstrate that social integration, bridging relationships, bonding relationships are all significant predictors to subjective well-being. Furthermore, the perceptions of social integration and social capital could play the crucial mediating roles in the connection between WeChat use and the dependent variable of subjective well-being. Therefore, these outcomes may shed light on a more nuanced comprehending of the influence of the new social media interaction on sojourner’s social adaption and overall life quality in the digital age.     

Microblogging,friendship maintenance,and life satisfaction among university students: The mediatory role of online self-disclosure

Despite a substantial literature suggests that computer-mediated communication impact individuals’ various psychosocial factors, relatively few studies have elucidated the underlying mechanism behind these associations. Building upon self-disclosure theory and previous studies, the principal purpose of this present research is to systematically explore the relationships among microblog utilization, online self-disclosure, friendship maintenance, and perceived life satisfaction. A web-based survey was implemented using a total of 426 university students in Northwestern China. Structural equation modeling reveals that intensity of microblog use is positively associated with these students’ friendship maintenance and life satisfaction. Additionally, online self-disclosure plays the crucial mediatory role in the relationships between microblog use, quality of relationships, and gratification with life. The results imply that as microbloggers disclosure their inner thoughts or emotional states with other users online, they could foster their friendship maintenance and obtain greater life satisfaction. However, contrary to the expectation, students’ friendship maintenance is not discovered to be a significant predictor of the sense of life satisfaction in the online environment. Overall, these obtained outcomes of the empirical work could offer new insights into the deep comprehending of the social psychological process of microblogging among younger generation in the new media context.
