“竹纤维”说法准确性的评析

<正>引言在2006年末至2007年,网络上出现大量商户销售声称使用"竹纤维"制作的服装。他们在广告中宣称"竹纤维"非常柔软,同时比棉纤维更易染色,并具有天然抗菌性能;而且由于生长过程中没有使用农药;要远比棉花纤维等其他纤维更环保。     

Energy consumption,economic growth and prices: A reassessment using panel VECM for developed and developing countries

This paper reinvestigates the energy consumption–GDP growth nexus in a panel error correction model using data on 20 net energy importers and exporters from 1971 to 2002. Among the energy exporters, there was bidirectional causality between economic growth and energy consumption in the developed countries in both the short and long run, while in the developing countries energy consumption stimulates growth only in the short run. The former result is also found for energy importers and the latter result exists only for the developed countries within this category. In addition, compared to the developing countries, the developed countries’ elasticity response in terms of economic growth from an increase in energy consumption is larger although its income elasticity is lower and less than unitary. Lastly, the implications for energy policy calling for a more holistic approach are discussed.     

Stearoyl-coenzyme a desaturase activity in the mammary gland and liver of lactating rats

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity in microsomes from lactating rat mammary gland is very low (0.05–0.15 nmol/min/mg of protein) regardless of lactating time. In such microsomes, reductase activities and content of cytochrome b₅ are several-fold lower than in normal rat liver microsomes. Preincubation of the mammary microsomes with purified terminal desaturase gives a 55-fold stimulation of stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity, whereas preincubation with cytochrome b₅ has no effect. However, preincubation of mammary microsomes with both cytochrome b₅ and terminal desaturase results in a 200-fold stimulation of overall desaturation. These observations suggest that negligible stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity in lactating rat mammary microsomes is due to a low cytochrome b₅ content and the absence of terminal enzyme. The hepatic stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity increases 9-fold during lactation. There is little or no change in the NADH-cytochrome c reductase activity or in the concentration of cytochrome b₅ during this period, but the activity of the terminal desaturase increases with the increase of overall desaturation. These results suggest that liver is one of the more important sources of oleic acid for milk triglycerides.

Identity Based Broadcast Encryption Scheme with Shorter Decryption Keys for Open Networks

In Broadcast Encryption schemes, a sender can broadcast the encrypted message securely in a threatening network to a set of legitimate system users only. In IBE scheme any sender can encrypt the desired message using his/her identity without attaining the public key certificate. Here, we have presented an efficient ID-based broadcast encryption scheme (IBBE) for open networks. In this scheme, desired messages can be broadcasted to any subset of the users by any sender but only authorized receivers are capable in retrieving the encrypted messages. This scheme has shorter decryption keys in comparison with other primitive of IBBE scheme for open networks. Moreover, the proposed scheme intends to achieve the lower cost for computation as well as transmission in comparison to earlier existing IBBE schemes.

     

Sulfur Nanoparticles Synthesis and Characterization from H2S Gas, Using Novel Biodegradable Iron Chelates in W/O Microemulsion

Sulfur nanoparticles were synthesized from hazardous H₂S gas using novel biodegradable iron chelates in w/o microemulsion system. Fe³⁺–malic acid chelate (0.05 M aqueous solution) was studied in w/o microemulsion containing cyclohexane, Triton X-100 and n-hexanol as oil phase, surfactant, co-surfactant, respectively, for catalytic oxidation of H₂S gas at ambient conditions of temperature, pressure, and neutral pH. The structural features of sulfur nanoparticles have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), diffused reflectance infra-red Fourier transform technique, and BET surface area measurements. XRD analysis indicates the presence of α-sulfur. TEM analysis shows that the morphology of sulfur nanoparticles synthesized in w/o microemulsion system is nearly uniform in size (average particle size 10 nm) and narrow particle size distribution (in range of 5–15 nm) as compared to that in aqueous surfactant systems. The EDS analysis indicated high purity of sulfur (>99%). Moreover, sulfur nanoparticles synthesized in w/o microemulsion system exhibit higher antimicrobial activity (against bacteria, yeast, and fungi) than that of colloidal sulfur.
