Antimicrobial residues survey by LC-MS in food-producing animals in Lebanon

ABSTRACT

The treatment of animals with antimicrobial products may lead to the contamination of edible tissues by their residues, which may represent a risk to human health. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the level of antimicrobial residues in food-producing animals (chicken, beef, and milk) in Lebanon. A total of 310 samples were collected and analysed using an LC-MS/MS for the determination of 48 compounds belonging to different families in order to map their compliance according to the European Commission decision 2002/657/EC. Results show that 60% of the analysed samples were not contaminated by any residue, while 12% presented a concentration higher than the MRLs for tetracyclines, sulphonamides, quinolones, and macrolides. Results revealed that chicken were the most contaminated by antimicrobial residues, when compared to beef and milk. The obtained results demonstrate the uncontrolled use of antimicrobials in some Lebanese farms and claim for better management of livestock.

液晶分子附着能和盒间隙对响应时间的影响

通过理论分析和实验研究液晶分子附着能和液晶盒间隙对响应时间(τ0)的影响。用液晶盒有效间隙法和表面动力学方程法两种方法推出分析公式,由这两种方法推出的结果是一致的。实验数据与简化方程τ0-dx基本拟合(其中d是液晶盒的间隙,x是指数)。在两种极端的(极大或极小)附着能极限下,指数x分别接近2和1。这个结论有助于优化液晶显示器件的应用。     

宽频带范围下磁场能量收集的匹配网络设计

磁场能量收集技术是电磁环境中分布式传感器实现自供能的有效手段。与工频磁场和射频磁场等单一频率的磁场环境不同,电力变换器中的磁场分布具有宽频率范围特性。为了提高取能模块的功率密度,应尽可能多地在有限体积内收集能量,提出通过采用双级谐振-带通滤波网络。与此同时,基于相同取能线圈,充分对比了不同电流和负载特性下,单级谐振网络和双级谐振-带通网络的输出特性,归纳出双级谐振-带通网络的适用范围。     

Thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer (Rodrun LC5000)/polypropylene in situ composite films: rheology, morphology, molecular orientation and tensile properties

In situ composite films were prepared by a two-step method. First, polypropylene and thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer (TLCP), Rodrun LC5000 (80 mol% p-hydroxy benzoic acid (HBA)/20 mol% polyethylene terephthalate (PET)), were melt blended in a twin-screw extruder and then fabricated by extrusion through a mini-extruder as cast film. Rheological behavior of the blends, morphology of the extruded strands and films, and tensile properties of the in situ composite films were investigated. Rheological behavior of the blends at 295 °C studied using a plate-and-plate rheometer revealed a substantial reduction of the complex viscosity with increasing TLCP content, and all specimens exhibited shear thinning behavior. Over the angular frequency range of 0.6-200 rad/s, the viscosity ratio (dispersed phase to matrix phase) was found to be very low, in the range of 0.03-0.07. Morphologies of the fracture surfaces of the blend extrudates and the film surfaces etched in permanganic solution were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The TLCP droplets in the extruded strands were seen with a progressive deformation into fibrillar structure when TLCP content was increased up to 30 wt%. In the extruded films, TLCP fibrils with increasing aspect ratio (length to width) were observed with increasing TLCP concentration. Orientation functions of each component were determined by X-ray diffraction using a novel separation technique. It was observed that the Young's modulus in machine direction of the extruded film was greatly improved with increasing TLCP loading, due to the increase in fiber aspect ratio and also molecular orientation.

LC GRIN lens mode with wide viewing angle for rotatable 2D/3D tablet

To widen the vertical and horizontal angular ranges where the lens performs well, the off‐axis performance of a liquid crystal gradient index (LC GRIN) lens is analyzed by the combined simulation system of an LC director simulator and a ray‐tracing simulator. We found that the angular difference between an LC alignment direction and an electrode array direction of the LC GRIN lens is one of significant parameters, and detailed conditions of structure are established. The measurement result shows that the developed structure reduces the degradation ratio in a luminance profile from 61% to 3.2%. We have applied a user tracking system for the rotatable 3D display, equipped with a detection of a panel orientation and a face position. As a result, we have developed a rotatable 2D/3D tablet whose 3D viewing azimuth angle is over 30° in both landscape and portrait orientations.
