Trichoptera (caddisfly) phylogeny provides an interesting example of aquatic insect evolution, with rich ecological diversification, especially for underwater architecture. Trichoptera provide numerous critical ecosystem services and are also one of the most important groups of aquatic insects for assessing water quality. The phylogenetic relationships of Trichoptera have been debated for nearly a century.

Green deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are widely used to extract bioactive components from plant biomass; however, hydrophilic DES and bioactive component isolation methods have not been developed. In this study, we synthesized hydrophilic DES (CL-CA-DES) using citric acid and choline chloride. We combined this with environmentally friendly anion- and cation-exchange resin column chromatographic isolation methods.

A quantitative structure retention relationship (QSRR) method was developed to identify flavonoid isomers auxiliary using an ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method based on the linear relationships between the Ln(k') values of flavonoids and their hydrogen bonding energy (X) and dissolution energy (E). Chromatographic separation was achieved with a Hypersil GOLD C18 (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.

In soft rock tunnels, there are often large deformations during construction, especially when the groundwater seepage and softens the surrounding rock. For achieving the purpose of studying the softening effect of water immersion on strength and stability of surrounding rock, 15 rock samples were selected for physical and mechanical tests under 5 conditions: natural state and free immersion for 1, 3, 6, and 9 months, and nuclear magnetic resonance technology(NMR) was also adopted to test the internal pore structure of specimens with different immersion durations, thus the micro structure features of the gneiss, such as the NMR relaxation time T2 spectrum distribution, porosity, and pore volume ratio of different pore sizes under water softening were then obtained. The NMR results shows that the longer the free immersion duration of the rock sample, the greater the porosity; at the same time, the number of micropores in the rock gradually decreases under the interaction of water and rock, and the mesopores increase slightly first and then decrease all the time.

The male adult of Ge, Peng & Sun is described and illustrated based on material collected in Si-chuan, China. It could be diagnosed by the subtriangular superior appendages when viewed dorsally, and by the mesal appendages each having a slender thorn and inferior appendages with a tiny inner process. Based on morphology of genitalia, we provide a dichotomous key to adult males of from the Oriental region.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert pivotal functions in many malignancies. However, the roles of circ-ABCC4 in prostate cancer (PCa) radioresistance and progression remain largely unclear. Cell viability, proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and radioresistance were evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine, flow cytometry, transwell invasion, and colony formation assays.

Background: At present, the incidence of alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) is increasing year by year, and numerous studies have confirmed that liver diseases are closely related to intestinal flora. Seabuckthorn and , as traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with the homology of medicine and food, have good liver protection, and their polysaccharides can regulate the intestinal flora. Here, we studied the effects of HRP, APS and the combination of the two polysaccharides on the intestinal flora of AFLD mice, which provided scientific basis for the treatment of AFLD with the two polysaccharides.

Gene rearrangement of the mitochondrial genome of insects, especially the rearrangement of protein-coding genes, has long been a hot topic for entomologists. Although mitochondrial gene rearrangement is common within Annulipalpia, protein-coding gene rearrangement is relatively rare. As the largest family in Annulipalpia, the available mitogenomes from Hydropsychidae Curtis, 1835 are scarce, and thus restrict our interpretation of the mitogenome characteristic.

Trichoptera is a highly adapted group of freshwater insects. They are generally more sensitive to dissolved oxygen and water quality than most freshwater organisms, and this sensitivity allows them to be used as reliable biological indicators of water quality. At present, there exists no chromosome-level genome of a hydropsychid species.

Article Synopsis
  • Acanthopanax senticosus is a medicinal plant known for its benefits in treating cardiovascular and central nervous system issues, primarily due to its active ingredient, eleutheroside E.
  • The study introduces two new deep eutectic solvents (DESs) that were synthesized to effectively extract eleutheroside E using ultrasonic extraction and advanced mass spectrometry for analysis.
  • Results indicated that the DES solvents were significantly more efficient in extracting eleutheroside E compared to traditional ethanol methods, achieving extraction rates 5-6 times higher and demonstrating stability over time, marking a valuable advancement in green extraction methods.
