Simplified Aeroelastic Model for Fluid Structure Interaction between Microcantilever Sensors and Fluid Surroundings

Fluid-structural coupling occurs when microcantilever sensors vibrate in a fluid. Due to the complexity of the mechanical characteristics of microcantilevers and lack of high-precision microscopic mechanical testing instruments, effective methods for studying the fluid-structural coupling of microcantilevers are lacking, especially for non-rectangular microcantilevers. Here, we report fluid-structure interactions (FSI) of the cable-membrane structure via a macroscopic study. The simplified aeroelastic model was introduced into the microscopic field to establish a fluid-structure coupling vibration model for microcantilever sensors. We used the finite element method to solve the coupled FSI system. Based on the simplified aeroelastic model, simulation analysis of the effects of the air environment on the vibration of the commonly used rectangular microcantilever was also performed. The obtained results are consistent with the literature. The proposed model can also be applied to the auxiliary design of rectangular and non-rectangular sensors used in fluid environments.     

Managed Bumblebees Outperform Honeybees in Increasing Peach Fruit Set in China: Different Limiting Processes with Different Pollinators

Peach Prunus persica (L.) Batsch is self-compatible and largely self-fertile, but under greenhouse conditions pollinators must be introduced to achieve good fruit set and quality. Because little work has been done to assess the effectiveness of different pollinators on peach trees under greenhouse conditions, we studied ‘Okubo’ peach in greenhouse tunnels near Beijing between 2012 and 2014. We measured pollen deposition, pollen-tube growth rates, ovary development, and initial fruit set after the flowers were visited by either of two managed pollinators: bumblebees, Bombus patagiatus Nylander, and honeybees, Apis mellifera L. The results show that B. patagiatus is more effective than A. mellifera as a pollinator of peach in greenhouses because of differences in two processes. First, B. patagiatus deposits more pollen grains on peach stigmas than A. mellifera, both during a single visit and during a whole day of open pollination. Second, there are differences in the fertilization performance of the pollen deposited. Half of the flowers visited by B. patagiatus are fertilized 9–11 days after bee visits, while for flowers visited by A. mellifera, half are fertilized 13–15 days after bee visits. Consequently, fruit development is also accelerated by bumblebees, showing that the different pollinators have not only different pollination efficiency, but also influence the subsequent time course of fertilization and fruit set. Flowers visited by B. patagiatus show faster ovary growth and ultimately these flowers produce more fruit. Our work shows that pollinators may influence fruit production beyond the amount of pollen delivered. We show that managed indigenous bumblebees significantly outperform introduced honeybees in increasing peach initial fruit set under greenhouse conditions.     

冬小麦开花前后茎和叶鞘中贮存的碳水化合物含量的变化

大田条件下小麦茎和叶鞘中各种糖含量在花后１０￣２０ｄ达到最高,尔后下降。茎中各种糖的最高含量显著高于叶鞘,茎和叶鞘中以聚合度（ＤＰ）≥４的果聚糖含量最高。花后１０￣２０ｄ以内产量潜力高的品种鲁麦２２茎和叶鞘中贮存碳水化合物含量明显高于产量潜力低的鲁麦１４,表明贮存碳水化合物在高产小麦中有重要作用。     

獐牙菜属植物叶表皮特征

利用光学显微镜观察了獐牙菜属３５种植物的呈表皮,发现该属植物成熟叶上下表皮细胞形状（表面观）为多边形和不规则型,垂周壁式样为平直、弓形和波纹,多数种类上、下表皮均有气孔器分布,气顺类型主要有３种,无规则型,不等型和平列型。这些特殊２对獐牙菜属下分类有一定的意义。结合其它方面的研究成果,初步确定叶表皮特征可能具有以下演化趋势,垂周壁式样深波方←浅波纹→平直,弓型,气顺类型无规则型→不等型→平列型。     

激光预处理可保护蚕豆细胞免受UV—B辐射的损伤

当蚕豆的胚被 He- Ne激光 (632 .8nm,1 .63J· mm- 2 )照射 5min或被 CO2 激光 (1 0 60nm,2 .53J· mm- 2 )照射 1 min后 ,将其置入 Knop营养液中进行恒温培养。当蚕豆的上胚轴长到大约 3cm时 ,在光背景 (PAR)为 70μmol· m- 2 · s- 1条件下 ,分别用 1 .0 2、3.0 3、4.52 k J· m- 2 的 UV- B辐射蚕豆的上胚轴 7h。根据蚕豆丙二醛 (MDA)、抗坏血酸 (As A)和 UV- B吸收物的含量变化 ,来测试激光对 UV- B照射蚕豆的上胚轴的保护作用。结果显示 :激光预处理可保护蚕豆上胚轴对 UV- B辐射的作用。与对照组 (没有用 UV- B或激光照射 )、UV- B单独照射组比较 ,在激光预处理的条件下 ,MDA的含量明显减少 ,As A和 UV- B吸收化合物的含量增加。如先用激光处理 ,然后再用 UV- B辐射 ,UV- B吸收物的含量将比单独用激光和 UV-B处理获得更好的改善。从而认为 ,激光预处理能增强植物对 UV- B的抵抗力。

In vitro drug release behavior from a novel thermosensitive composite hydrogel based on Pluronic f127 and poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(ε-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol) copolymer

Background  

Most conventional methods for delivering chemotherapeutic agents fail to achieve therapeutic concentrations of drugs, despite reaching toxic systemic levels. Novel controlled drug delivery systems are designed to deliver drugs at predetermined rates for predefined periods at the target organ and overcome the shortcomings of conventional drug formulations therefore could diminish the side effects and improve the life quality of the patients. Thus, a suitable controlled drug delivery system is extremely important for chemotherapy.
