Technology introduction, digestion, absorption and re-innovation (hereinafter referred to as TIDAR) are an important way to build innovation capacity and promote economic development for developing countries or undeveloped areas. The paper takes Sichuan and Chongqing as examples to study the capacity of TIDAR in undeveloped regions of west China, using SPSS software with Principal component analysis method (PCA) and results four main issues (small asset size; inadequate investment on digestion and absorption; lack of re-innovation ability and Lack of support for technological innovation environment) in west China. Finally, we put forward some reasonable solution for those problems.

To systematically generalize the valuable process parameters (especially biomass utilization and fungal kinetics) of long-term lignocellulolytic cascades by Dichomitus squalens, the continuous patterns of this submerged biosystem (based on the practically controlled metabolic outputs in closed biocascades) were evaluated using the mathematical unstructured models (here Verhulst logistic and modified Luedeking-Piret functions). Remarkably, the process-driven optimization of peroxidative targets has the potential to stably maintain the fluctuated mainstream of growth kinetics, and so it could be complementarily enhanced the associability (µ vs. X; R2 = 0.9938) between theoretical prediction and actual bioconversion efficiency. However, the logical elucidations of this advanced D. squalens platform had some irresistible limitations (S vs. µ or S vs. X; R2 = 0.5826 or 0.5524), particularly by substrate regeneration (from selective depolymerization of crystalline biomass). The suggested results may be used to provide the noncontroversial information on metabolic perturbation itself as well as to contribute to the methodological index of commercial batch platform for bioethanol production.

Serum uric acid (SUA) is a routine investigation in hypertensive patients. Prolonged ECG QT intervals are associated with an increased sudden cardiac death risk. The present study aimed to assess the relationship between serum uric acid, and blood pressure and QT interval, respectively. A total of 56 patients with optimal, normal and high normal blood pressure were included in the present retrospective study. ECG QT interval durations, systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP, DBP) and SUA level were available for each participant from medical records. Pulse pressure (PP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were calculated. Patients were divided into two groups according to SUA level. The first group comprised 31 patients with SUA up to 5 mg/dl, the second group, 25 patients with SUA ≥ 5 mg/dl. Serum uric acid levels were: 3.74±0.78 mg/dl and 6.15±1.43 mg/dl (p<0.01) in the first and the second group, respectively. High normal blood pressure was more prevalent in the second group compared to the first (35% and 48%, respectively). Heart rate corrected QT intervals (QTc) were significantly longer in the second group compared to the first (400±21 ms and 420±36 ms, respectively, p=0.016). Patients of the second group were, also, more likely to have SBP>130 mmHg, DBP>85 mmHg, PP≥60 mmHg, MAP≥105 mmHg and QTc≥450ms compared to those of the first group. Significant correlations and associations were found between SUA and high normal blood pressure and prolonged QT intervals, respectively. Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis identified cut-off values for SUA of 5.22, 5.48, 3.9, 5.23 and 5.45 mg/dl in predicting prolonged QTc, high normal blood pressure, increased systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure, respectively. High normal blood pressure and mean arterial pressure, wide pulse pressure and prolonged QT intervals are very likely in patients with high normal and elevated SUA levels. Serum uric acid should be monitored in patients with normal and high normal blood pressure, and blood pressure and QT interval should be measured in patients with SUA ≥ 5 mg/dl.

Depletion of fossil fuels and impacts of global warming caused widespread attention using renewable energy sources, especially wind and solar energies. The coordinating between generation periods of renewable resources and consumption periods is very complicated issue in stand-alone hybrid renewable energy system. The optimal sizing method which maximizes the electricity math rate between demand and supplies is an important issue in hybrid power systems. Most literatures sized hybrid renewable systems based on reliability and cost.\nIn this paper, a Mathematical algorithm optimization technique is used to optimally size a proposed PV-wind- Diesel generator hybrid energy system. Furthermore, three types operation cases. Case1: The optimization is processed with two parameters: Annualized cost of the system and by maintaining the loss of power supply probability (LPSP) of the system in a certain predetermined value ±10% . Case2: The optimization is processed with three parameters: Inequality coefficient, Correlation coefficient and Annualized cost of the system. Case3: The optimization is processed with four parameters: Inequality coefficient, Correlation coefficient, annualized cost of the system and by maintaining the loss of power supply probability (LPSP) of the system small in a certain predetermined value ±10% . A computer programs are designed, using MATLAB code in an M-files, to simulate the proposed hybrid system and to formulate the optimization problem by computing the coefficients of the objective function, minimization the annualized cost of the system, and the constraints which is included in minimization of the loss of power supply probability and the inequality coefficient, and maximization of the correlation coefficient in all three cases. The results of this study are valuable for evaluating the performance of future stand-alone hybrid power system. It is worth mentioning that the proposed methodology can be effectively employed for any composition of hybrid energy systems in any locations taking into account the meteorological data and the consumer’s demand.

This paper proposes an Indoor Navigation System for Accuracy Enhancement (INSAE) that collects the location data of an indoor crew in real time accurately, generates the location information for rescuing human lives and transfers the disaster and location information of a vessel to the nearest public agency so that the disaster damage caused by fire and collision of vessels can be reduced. First, the INSAE designs Indoor Navigation Module (IMN) that collects a crew’s location data with the smallest error rate through the AP based Indoor Positioning Technique (AIPT), Accuracy enhanced Triangulation Positioning Technique (ATPT), and DR positioning based on Error Calibration (DREC) using wireless communication devices. Second, it designs the Data Collection and Management Module (DCMM) that collects and records the indoor crew’s location data by the INM and transfers it to a rescuer’s wireless communication device in case of disaster. Third, according to the request of the DCMM having sensed a disaster it designs Wireless Communication Manager (WCM) that computes the safest and shortest route to a public agency by considering an azimuth, the number of packets on the route, and S/N ratio and transfers the current location information of a vessel, an indoor crew’s location information and rescue request data safely and speedily based on the computed route. As a result, The INSAE in this paper reduces an error rate about an indoor crew’s positioning even in an iron ship not to be able to use GPS, increases the probability to save a life by using an indoor crew’s location information in case of disaster of the ship inside, and cuts time and cost to spend in rescuing because the rescue request data of a ship can be transferred safely and speedily through the WCM.

Sewage effluent is repetitively reused in irrigation, particularly in newly reclaimed sandy soils, as it fortify their content of nutrients and organic matter as time goes on, despite there is a significant anxiety about the gathering of PTEs in the soil ecosystem as time goes on. Sunflower and corn were used to clean PTEs in the presence and absence of Mycorrhyzae (AM) in high and marginal contaminated sewaged soils. MA inoculation increased the seed yield of corn and sunflower under marginal (82.2 and 33.2%) and highly (43.3 and 17.6%) contaminated sewaged soils conditions, respectively. AM inoculation enhanced corn plant absorption of Zn and Cu to a degree that they contained two or three folds of Zn and Cu contents. Root and shoot of sunflower plants contained more Zn compared to those of corn plants. AM inoculation in the high contaminated soils irrigated with sewage effluent resulted in elevated depression in Cu content in roots and shoots of sunflower reaching 31.4% and 64.3%, respectively. Based on the distinctive decontamination rate of every studied PTE and Zn equivalent values, the cleaning potency of corn plant far exceeded that of sunflower plants for Zn, Cu and Ni.

Alzheimer disease (AD) is characterized by the sustained higher nervous disorders of the activities and functions of the brain.The aggregation of β-amyloid (βA) peptides plaques in brain tissue is strongly associated with AD.In this work, the aggregation of βA induced by Aluminum chloride was investigated with the use of the Congo red stain. It is reported that Moringa leaves is a potential source of natural antioxidants such as total phenolics and antioxidant vitamin A, C and E, ascorbic acid oxidase, polyphenol oxidase and catalase. Therefore, the present study was designed to determine whether treatment with Moringa Olifera leaves extract has any ameliorative action on the cerebrovascular structure in AD rats.\nMaterials and methods:\n Alzheimer’s disease induced rats was established by injecting both D-galactose (D-gal) and aluminum chloride (AlCl3) into the abdominal cavity of 42 days. After injection of AlCl3 and D-gal, the rats were treated with moringa leafs extract once daily for consecutive 14 days, respectively.\nResults:\nOur study revealed an intensive aggregation of the amyloid plaques in the hippocampus neural cells after ALCL2 and D galactose administration and an observed degeneration for these plaques after Moringa olifera leaves extract treatment.\nConclusion:\n Moringa leaves extract has a therapeutic role in Alzheimer’s disease in the animal model used.

Water protection is very important for many aspects such as the protection and preservation of fish, shellfish, and wildlife and recreation in and on the water.\nTo achieve the targets of the (CWA) this paper presents a technology to separate solids, mainly sand, from water. It reduces the amount of water that needs treatments from the pollutants came from urban areas by Federal clean water act, (2002). Other systems take the whole amount of water that runs off the urban areas and treat it all. As it is known that urban areas (especially that ignores hydrologic effects of urbanizing) runoff storm water is much higher than un-urbanized areas as described by Walsh, (1989), which cause the problems to pileup and it becomes more expensive and difficult to handle.\nThe method proposed works on concentrating the solid in small amount of water and discharging the rest to be reused or to the nearest stream. This new Idea uses the swirl flow (rotational water flow) outside horizontal pipes to separate particles, by centrifugal force generated with swirl flow, according to density difference. The proposed setup reduces the time needed to treat water as compared to detention tank and its compact size reduces system-required footprint. This system was tested for three different suspended solid grain size sand, silt and clay.\nThis study concluded that horizontal swirl flow separator, with its compact size, was able to separate sand from water. This system helps to reduce the size of large facility to treat storm water, irrigation excess water such as detention tank or any other method. Separating sand from storm water is vital for many cities in United States as municipalities mix sand with salt to prevent icing on the roads. Excess irrigation water needs treatment before it be used again in any irrigation system the Swirl system showed a very promising results when it was tested on the case of sand water separation.

The paper presents preliminary results of thetotal antioxidant potential (TAP) performance tests. Its aim is to compare the results of efficiencies of various TAPs assays. As a model samples to their testthe aqueous extracts of herbs were selected. The first method was related to the hydroxyl radicals, generated in the Fenton reaction. The product of reaction between radicals andp-hydroxybenzoicacid, used as a sensor, was determined using HPLC with UV/Vis detector. The second assay is based on the measurements on total surface area of all chromatographic peaks recorded using HPLC with electrochemical detectionat the anodic potential of the working electrode. This method was selected because it is characterized by much lower detection limit than obtained in classical voltammetry. The results were correlated with the TAPs values related to the DPPH radicals as well as to the total polyphenols content in the sample.
