Lutein and lutein esters in marigold flowers by high performance chromatography

Lutein and lutein esters in marigold flowers was quantitatively determined by high performance chromatography (HPLC) with ODS-C18 column. A mixture of CH3CN-CH3OH-CH3COOCH2CH2 with volume ratio of 55:1:44 was used as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0mL/min and detection was carried out at 480 nm. The column temperature was about 20℃. The contents of lutein and lutein esters were determined by analytical curve of lutein since lutein and lutein esters have the same spectral characteristics. Determination results of hexane extracts and saponified samples of lutein show that the saponification transforms the esters into free lutein. The increase of the content of dipalmitate and palmitate stearate reveals that the reaction includes transesterifications.     

Long-term effect of perinatal and postnatal asphyxia on developing human auditory brainstem responses: peripheral hearing loss

Peripheral hearing was assessed by examining brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAER) in children who suffered perinatal or postnatal asphyxia, particularly in those with residual neurodevelopmental deficits, to investigate the long-term effect of asphyxia on the developing auditory sensitivity. The BAER data were collected at least 6 months after the episode of asphyxia. Of the children who suffered perinatal asphyxia, hearing loss was found more frequently in those who exhibited residual neurodevelopmental deficits (17.1%) than in those who did not (6.3%), but this difference did not reach statistical significance. This implied that the long-term effect of perinatal asphyxia on the peripheral auditory system and its effect on the central nervous system may be relatively discrete or not closely correlated. The occurrence of hearing loss did not appear to be closely related to the degree of perinatal asphyxia, although hearing loss occurred more frequently in the children after severe asphyxia compared to those after mild asphyxia. There was no evidence for permanent hearing loss in the children who survived severe, prolonged postnatal asphyxia and exhibited residual neurodevelopmental deficits. These findings suggest that a critical period of particular sensitivity to the effect of hypoxia may exist during the development of the human peripheral auditory system. This period may range from some time prenatally to some time shortly after birth, probably the third postnatal month. After that, hypoxia is unlikely to lead to permanent hearing loss.

Investigation of Infrared Photonic Crystal Slab with Defect Waveguides

This paper deals with the two dimensional (2-D) infrared photonic crystal slab with an air-bridge structure featuring defect waveguides in which the optical propagation properties were obtained by measurements of transmission spectra. 3-D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations have revealed the appearance of four defect propagation modes for the band structure and transmission spectra in the air-bridge slab. These defect modes were experimentally identified in the measured transmission spectra.

The feasibility of distant wavelength conversion in photonic crystal fiber was explored. The one-pump parametric architecture was used to demonstrate translation from the conventional (1550 nm) to visible (500 nm) band.

高输入功率因数的三相无源AC-DC变换器

对于采用三相不控整流桥作为前级的变换器，自然条件下其输入电流波形系数不高，使得输入功率因数委低，降低了电源的利用率。为此需要采用功率因数提高技术，其中无源PFC是一类重要的功率因数校正技术，在某些场合非常具有应用价值。本文介绍了几种三相无源AC-DC变换器的高功率因数方案，如采用LC滤波器、移相电抗器，谐振电抗器，移相变压器，相间变压器，相间电抗器等，在进行简单的工作原理描述后，给出了部分方案的MATLAB/SIMULINK仿真结果。
