Preparation and Evaluation of a Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery System Loaded with Heparin Phospholipid Complex

A self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) was developed to enhance the absorption of heparin after oral administration, in which heparin was compounded with phospholipids to achieve better fat solubility in the form of heparin-phospholipid (HEP-Pc) complex. HEP-Pc complex was prepared using the solvent evaporation method, which increased the solubility of heparin in n-octanol. The successful preparation of HEP-Pc complex was confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, NMR, and SEM. A heparin lipid microemulsion (HEP-LM) was prepared by high-pressure homogenization and characterized. HEP-LM can enhance the absorption of heparin after oral administration, significantly prolong activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and thrombin time (TT) in mice, and reduce fibrinogen (FIB) content. All these outcomes indicate that HEP-LM has great potential as an oral heparin formulation.     

Understanding grain refining and anti Si-poisoning effect in Al-10Si/Al-5Nb-B system

Grain refinement is critical for fabricating high-quality Al-Si casting components in the application of automobile and aerospace industries,while the well-known Si-poisoning effect makes it difficult.Nbbased refiners offer an effective method to refine Al-Si casting alloys,but their anti Si-poisoning capability is far from being understood.In this work,the grain refining mechanism and the anti Si-poisoning effect in the Al-10 Si/Al-5 Nb-B system were systematically investigated by combining transmission electron microscope,first-principles calculations,and thermodynamic calculations.It is revealed that NbB₂provides the main nucleation site in the Al-10 Si ingot inoculated by 0.1 wt.%Nb Al-5 Nb-B refiner.The exposed Nb atoms on the(0001)NbB₂and(1-100)NbB₂surface can be substituted by Al to form(Al,Nb)B₂intermedia layers.In addition,a layer of NbAl₃-like compound(NbAl₃')can cover the surface of NbB₂with the orientation relation of(1-100)[11-20]NbB_2//(110)[110]NbAl₃'.Both of the(Al,Nb)B₂and NbAl₃'intermedia layers contribute to enhancing the nucleation potency of NbB₂particles.These discoveries provide fundamental insight to the grain refining mechanism of the Nb-B based refiners for Al-Si casting alloys and are expected to guide the future development of stronger refiners for Al-Si casting alloys.     

LNG接收站火炬放空系统设计工况研究与分析

在液化天然气(LNG)接收站工程设计建设过程中，火炬系统的设计是保证LNG接收站安全生产的必要条件。以国内某LNG接收站为例，分析了LNG蒸发气(BOG)产生的因素和机理，及6种工况组合下火炬排放量的计算方法。结果表明：在工况1条件下与实际生产情况吻合良好，其对应的火炬气排放量约为142.7 t/h。在此基础上确定了：BOG支管管径为DN600,BOG总管的管径为DN900;被分离液滴的直径不大于600μm;火炬分液罐尺寸为?2.5 m×8.0 m;电加热器的功率为195 kW;火炬形式为封闭式地面火炬。研究结果可为今后LNG接收站项目火炬系统的处理能力及设备配置提供理论指导。     

不同剪跨比的无腹筋UHPC梁抗剪承载力有限元分析

为探讨剪跨比对无腹筋UHPC梁抗剪承载力的影响，文中采用ABAQUS有限元软件，以剪跨比为主要参数，对3种不同剪跨比的无腹筋UHPC简支梁的抗剪承载力进行数值分析，与试验结果相比较，吻合较好。在此基础上，考虑不同的剪跨比进行参数分析，结果表明：随着剪跨比的增大，无腹筋UHPC梁的抗剪承载力降低，且降低速率逐渐减小；剪跨比越大，纵筋配筋率对抗剪承载力的提高幅度越小。文中采用的有限元分析方法为无腹筋UHPC梁的抗剪承载力设计和计算提供参考。     

Synthesis of nanopowders with low agglomeration by elaborating Φ values for producing Gd2O3-MgO nanocomposites with extremely fine grain sizes and high mid-infrared transparency

Refining ceramic microstructures to the nanometric range to minimize light scattering provides an interesting methodology for developing novel optical ceramic materials. In this work, we reported the fabrication and properties of a new nanocomposite optical ceramic of Gd₂O₃-MgO. The citric acid sol-gel combustion method was adopted to fabricate Gd₂O₃-MgO nanocomposites with fine-grain sizes, dense microstructures and homogeneous phase domains. Nanopowders with low agglomeration and improved sinterability can be obtained by elaborating Φ values. Further refining of the microstructure of the nanocomposites was achieved by elaborating the hot-pressing conditions. The sample sintered at 65 MPa and 1300 °C showed a quite high hardness value of 14.3 ± 0.2 GPa, a high transmittance of 80.3 %–84.7 % over the 3?6 μm wavelength range, due mainly to its extremely fine-grain size of Gd₂O₃ and MgO (93 and 78 nm, respectively) and high density.

SND生物脱氮过程N_2O的产生与关键酶及其活性

废水生物脱氮是目前水处理中重要的去除含氮废水的方法。随着国内外学者的深入研究,一些新型的生物脱氮工艺被开发和应用到污水处理中,从而经济高效地去除废水中的含氮污染物,达到国家的排放标准。同步硝化反硝化(SND)是具有发展潜力的新型脱氮工艺,但在运行过程中不可避免地会产生N2O。N2O是最重要的三种温室气体之一,其温室效应约为CO2的300倍。因此,在注重SND的脱氮效率的同时,也应该关注其产生的气态物对大气环境的影响。文章阐述了SND脱氮过程中N2O产生的机理及相关酶,并分析了SND工艺过程中主要影响N2O释放量的工艺因素。     

Auto-registration of medium and high spatial resolution satellite images by integrating improved SIFT and spatial consistency constraints

Feature-based methods have been developed in the past decades for the registration of optical satellite images. However, it is still a challenging problem to handle well the registration between medium and high spatial resolution images due to the large difference of the spatial structural features and local details for the same objects. In this study, an automated co-registration technique is proposed that integrates an improved SIFT (I-SIFT) and a novel matching strategy called spatial consistency constraints (SCC) to cope with the large difference in spatial resolutions between the image pair. Three constraints on angle, distance, and ratio are introduced to re the initial matching features obtained by I-SIFT. Three groups of experiments were conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experiments used high resolution multispectral and panoramic SPOT 5/6 images and Landsat 5/8 orthorectification images. Experimental results show that the registration error lies in about 1 pixel of high-resolution images and demonstrate that the proposed I-SIFT-SCC approach is suitable for fine registration of optical satellite images from medium spatial resolution to high spatial resolution with resolution ratio up to 6.
