Discovery of Quality by Design-Based Extraction Technology and the Quality Standard of Jinhua Finger Citron Essential Oil.

Jinhua finger citron is one of the traditional specialties of Jinhua with a long history of cultivation. The current study highlighted the advantages of using the quality by design approach to optimize the ultrasonic-assisted distillation extraction of Jinhua finger citron essential oil. The yield of Jinhua finger citron essential oil was regarded as a potential critical quality attribute.

[Retracted] Downregulation of CKS1B restrains the proliferation, migration, invasion and angiogenesis of retinoblastoma cells through the MEK/ERK signaling pathway.

Following the publication of the above paper, it has been drawn to the Editors' attention by a concerned reader that certain of the lumen formation assay data shown in Fig. 5A on p. 112 were strikingly similar to data appearing in different form in another article written by different authors at different research institute, which had already been published in the journal prior to the submission of this paper to , and which has also subsequently been retracted.

Insight into the photoelectrical properties of metal adsorption on a two-dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite surface: theoretical and experimental research.

In order to study the photoelectric properties of the adsorption of different metal atoms on a two-dimensional (2D) perovskite surface, in this article, we built many models of Ag, Au, and Bi atoms adsorbed on 2D perovskite. We studied the rules influencing 2D perovskite adsorbing metal atoms with different values (the value is the number of inorganic layers of 2D perovskite; here = 1, 2, and 3). Based on = 2 2D perovskite, we successively used Ag, Au, and Bi metal atoms to adsorb on the 2D perovskite surface.

Study of the effect of DIO additive on charge extraction and recombination in organic-inorganic hybrid MAPbI Cl perovskite solar cell.

In this article, we fabricated a plane structure perovskite solar cell of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/MAPbI Cl /PCBM/Al. With 1% of 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) additive in the perovskite, the solar cell's efficiency greatly increased from 10.39% to 13.

Hydrogen sulfide enhances nitric oxide-induced tolerance of hypoxia in maize (Zea mays L.).

Our data present H S in a new role, serving as a multi-faceted transducer to different response mechanisms during NO-induced acquisition of tolerance to flooding-induced hypoxia in maize seedling roots. Nitric oxide (NO), serving as a secondary messenger, modulates physiological processes in plants. Recently, hydrogen sulfide (HS) has been demonstrated to have similar signaling functions.

Kangxian capsules: Effects on convulsive injuries, N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunit expression, and free Ca(2+) concentration in a rat hippocampal neuron epileptic discharge model.

Purpose: To investigate the effects and mechanisms of Kangxian (KX) capsules on hippocampal neuron convulsive injuries.

Methods: An epileptic discharge model was prepared with hippocampal neurons and divided into groups that were subjected to control, Mg-free, MK801, or anti-epilepsy (KX) interventions for 6 or 24h. The N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor channel current was recorded with a whole-cell patch-clamp technique, and the decay tau was determined from the receptor channel attenuation.
