Bead-based polymerase chain reaction on a microchip

We present a bead-based approach to microfluidic polymerase chain reaction (PCR), enabling fluorescent detection and sample conditioning in a single microchamber. Bead-based PCR, while not extensively investigated in microchip format, has been used in a variety of bioanalytical applications in recent years. We leverage the ability of bead-based PCR to accumulate fluorescent labels following DNA amplification to explore a novel DNA detection scheme on a microchip. The microchip uses an integrated microheater and temperature sensor for rapid control of thermal cycling temperatures, while the sample is held in a microchamber fabricated from (poly)dimethylsiloxane and coated with Parylene. The effects of key bead-based PCR parameters, including annealing temperature and concentration of microbeads in the reaction mixture, are studied to achieve optimized device sensitivity and detection time. The device is capable of detecting a synthetically prepared section of the Bordetella pertussis genome in as few as 10 temperature cycles with times as short as 15?min. We then demonstrate the use of the procedure in an integrated device; capturing, amplifying, detecting, and purifying template DNA in a single microfluidic chamber. These results show that this method is an effective method of DNA detection which is easily integrated in a microfluidic device to perform additional steps such as sample pre-conditioning.

自复位预制节段钢管混凝土桥墩拟静力试验数值仿真

为提高桥墩建造效率、降低桥墩局部损伤,将钢管混凝土(concrete filled steel tubular,CFST)用于预制桥墩节段,发展基于可恢复功能的自复位预制节段拼装钢管混凝土桥墩.在后张预应力预制节段拼装钢管混凝土桥墩缩尺模型的低周往复试验的基础上,基于ABAQUS软件建立自复位桥墩三维有限元数值仿真模型,利用试验结果验证数值模型的有效性.研究和分析水平拟静力往复加载下自复位预制节段拼装钢管混凝土桥墩的力学行为和抗震性能.研究结果表明:本文基于ABAQUS软件建立的三维有限元数值模型可以较好地体现自复位节段桥墩的局部损伤和非线性往复滞回力学行为.自复位节段拼装钢管混凝土桥墩的力-位移曲线为明显的旗帜形态.墩顶最大偏移率超过5.0％时,桥墩仍具有良好的自复位能力.轴心预应力筋张拉力随水平加载位移基本呈线性增加,加载结束后出现明显的预应力损失.墩底节段局部钢管发生屈服,但上部节段未出现明显局部屈曲现象.     

焊接箱型截面构件在不同焊缝熔深下承载力性能试验研究

为了有效改善大跨度桥梁中管翼缘焊接箱型截面构件的耐久性的问题,提出采用耐候钢代替普通钢的管翼缘箱型截面梁。同时,为了研究耐候钢管翼缘焊接箱型截面构件填充混凝土后在全熔透和部分熔透条件下的单轴承载力性能,开展了焊接矩形截面在三种不同焊缝熔深下的耐候钢管混凝土截面轴压短柱试验研究。分别测试每个试件在单轴压力作用下的静态应变、动态应变,以及竖向位移和侧向位移。对比构件承载力的试验结果及理论分析结果,得出不同熔深下焊接箱型截面管翼缘组合构件的承载力性能。研究结果表明:1）耐候钢管翼缘焊接箱型截面构件的全熔透焊缝承载力高于部分熔透焊缝承载力。2）全熔透试件开裂时的竖向位移较部分熔透试件的位移值大,而不同熔深下构件的横向位移测点L4随轴压荷载的增大而有增加,L3测点横向位移规律不明显。3）不同耐候钢管翼缘焊接箱型截面构件横向整体受拉,局部在顶部角部位置受压。构件的混凝土内部和钢板表面应变情况复杂,规律不明显。

PARAMAGNETIC MEISSNER EFFECTS IN MELT-TEXTURED Y_(0.99)Nd_(0.01)Ba_2Cu_3O_(7-y)SUPERCONDUCTOR

The paramagnetic Meissner effect (PME) was observed on the field-cooled M-T curvesof melt-textured Y0.99Nd0.01Ba2Cu3O7-y in applied magnetic fields from 1kOe toJ0kOe. In the magnetic field below 1kOe, the sample undergoes the typical transi-tion from the normal state to the superconducting state when it was cooled down. Theapplied magnetic fields in which the PME occurs, are very high compared with thefields reported in literatures. We propose that the occurrence of the PME may be dueto a phase transition of flux vortices in the superconductors.     

The Role of Chronic Inflammation in Various Diseases and Anti-inflammatory Therapies Containing Natural Products

Chronic inflammation represents a long-term reaction of the body's immune system to noxious stimuli. Such a sustained inflammatory response sometimes results in lasting damage to healthy tissues and organs. In fact, chronic inflammation is implicated in the development and progression of various diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, metabolic diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and even cancers. Targeting nonresolving inflammation thus provides new opportunities for treating relevant diseases. In this review, we will go over several chronic inflammation-associated diseases first with emphasis on the role of inflammation in their pathogenesis. Then, we will summarize a number of natural products that exhibit therapeutic effects against those diseases by acting on different markers in the inflammatory response. We envision that natural products will remain a rich resource for the discovery of new drugs treating diseases associated with chronic inflammation.     

Boron Nitride Nanosheets Strengthened PVA/Borax Hydrogels with Highly Efficient Self-Healing and Rapid pH-Driven Shape Memory Effect

Self-healing hydrogels often possess poor mechanical properties which largely limits their applications in many fields. In this work, boron nitride nanosheets are introduced into a network of the poly(vinyl alcohol)/borax (PVA/borax) hydrogels to enhance the mechanical properties of the hydrogel without compromising the self-healing abilities. The obtained hydrogels exhibit excellent mechanical properties with a tensile strength of 0.410 ± 0.007 MPa, an elongation at break of 1712%, a Young's Modulus of 0.860 ± 0.023 MPa, and a toughness of 3.860 ± 0.075 MJ m⁻³. In addition, the self-healing efficiency of the hydrogels is higher than 90% within 10 min at room temperature. Benefiting from the excellent self-healing properties, the shapeability of the hydrogel fragments is observed using different molds. In addition, the hydrogels display rapid pH-driven shape memory effects and can recover to their original shape within 260 s. Overall, this work provides a new approach to hydrogels with integrated excellent mechanical properties, self-healing abilities, and rapid pH-driven shape memory effects.     

Effect of ammonia concentrations on SCC of α-brass under mode III loading

Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of α-brass in ammonia solution was studied under mode III loading. The results showed that SCC occurred on the principal stress planes where shear stresses are zero. No SCC occurred on the maximum shear stress plane. Ammonia concentration affected fracture behaviour. When the concentration was low, many cracks with spacing of 10–150 μm were found on 45 ° planes, i.e., the principal stress planes. When the concentration was high, the cracks on 45 ° planes were not clearly visible because of serious general corrosion.
