Triple Cross-Linked Hyaluronic Acid Based on Tri-Hyal Technique Has More Durable Effect on Dermal Renewal.

Background: Hyaluronic acid (HA)-based fillers are applied to treat facial wrinkles and volume loss. Many efforts have been made to improve properties of HA to prolong the duration in aesthetic indications. A new cross-linking technique called "Tri-Hyal", could make HAs to achieve desired rheological characteristics.

Low-Temperature Solution-Processed CuAgBiI Films for High Performance Photovoltaics and Photodetectors.

Recently, CuAgBiI semiconductor has been investigated due to the high absorption coefficient, direct bandgap, and low exciton binding energy, which are promising for eco-friendly photoelectric devices. Herein, pyridine is introduced as solvent additive to completely dissolve the solutes and form clear CuAgBiI precursor solution, which results in high-quality films and may provide a general approach for high-quality film growth of other bismuth-based metal halide semiconductors. In addition, the electronic structure of CuAgBiI has been demonstrated for the first time and shows an intrinsically weak n-type semiconductor.

Helicobacter pylori infection may increase the severity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease via promoting liver function damage, glycometabolism, lipid metabolism, inflammatory reaction and metabolic syndrome.

Background And Aim: Recent clinical trials have confirmed that Helicobacter pylori infection is positively associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), although some research has shown a negative association. Therefore, to confirm whether H. pylori eradication treatment is feasible for NAFLD patients in our hospital, we aimed to establish the association between H.

A gas chromatography method established for oxygen transfer efficiency measurement.

A new method of oxygen transfer efficiency (OTE) measurement for aerobic biochemical wastewater treatment system was introduced. The effluent gas and the influent air around the fan were collected and analyzed with a gas chromatograph. The ratios of the concentration of nitrogen to that of oxygen for both influent and effluent gases were determined.

[Experimental study on the mechanism of oilfield wastewater treatment by using hydrolysis-acidification with aerobic biological processes].

Hydrolysis-acidification + aerobic biological processes were conducted experimentally to treat oilfield wastewater pretreated with physical and chemical treatment in Xinjiang oilfield. The results showed that when the COD concentration in influent was 190-220 mg x L(-1), that in effluent reduced to 65-75 mg x L(-1) under HRT of 10h in both hydrolysis-acidification process and aerobic biological process, reaching the strictest requirement of Effluent Standards for Wastewater from Petroleum Development Industry (GB3550-83). Using GC/MS technology, the relative content of various organic pollutants was analyzed to discover the transfer and degradation law in the oilfield wastewater in biological treatment process.
