In the present study, the differences in the antioxidant capability, metabolite composition and fungal diversity in peach gum with various colours were investigated. Metabolomics revealed that peach gum comprised many small-molecule metabolites (including primary and secondary metabolites), and most polyphenols (such as flavonoids and phenolic acids) showed a significantly positive relationship with the colour deepening, total phenol content and antioxidant capability. Using fungal diversity analysis, the abundance of five fungi at the genus level increased with peach gum colour deepening, and these fungi demonstrated a significantly positive relationship with two defense hormones (salicylic acid and abscisic acid) and most polyphenols (particularly flavonoids).

A novel binding gel was prepared using a double precipitation method with AgI and zirconium oxide (Zr-oxide) deposited sequentially on a preformed Chelex-100 resin gel. A good linear relationship was observed (R>0.

Based on the analysis of the FBG temperature measurement method, the FBG sensing demodulation system is built to calibrate its wavelength and temperature parameters. The experimental data of temperature gradient monitoring are compared with the on-orbit real-time temperature data of a satellite's solar array measured by the thermistor to verify the temperature monitoring accuracy and stability of the FBG sensing demodulation system.

The signal arm of the F⁻P interferometer is organically combined with the ultra-small GRIN fiber probe to establish the theoretical model of the novel F⁻P interferometer. An interferometer experimental system for vibration measurements was built to measure the performance of the novel F⁻P interferometer system.
