Spinal reflex circuitry-based controllers have shown promising capabilities in controlling the biomechanics of locomotion in simulation. Studies have been done to tune or identify reflex circuitry from imposed objectives, such as metabolic energy efficiency, maintaining balance or mimicking experimental data. However, in those works, the reflex structure was predefined by the authors.

In this study, a novel hydroxyl-functionalized imidazolium-based ionic liquid introduced metal-organic framework (OH-IL@NH-MIL-53(Al)) was prepared for the extraction of multiple neonicotinoids (NEOs) and their metabolites. The functionalization of ionic liquid obviously enhanced the generate affinity of OH-IL@NH-MIL-53(Al) towards NEOs and their metabolites through the pre-designed hydrogen-bonding and cation-π electron donor-acceptor interactions. Adsorption studies of OH-IL@NH-MIL-53(Al) showed rapid adsorption rates and excellent adsorption capacities (129.

Staphylococcal enterotoxins have long been studied due to the food-borne illness caused and complex intracellular virulence regulation involved. Along with the popularized application of cold chain production of meat products, there is important significance to explore the influence of low temperature on enterotoxin genes expression correlated to regulators under meat cultivation. In this study, SEA and SEB type Staphylococcus aureus strains (designated Sa08 and Sa13 respectively) were cultivated on chicken meat at 8 and 25 °C, typical virulence regulators (agrA, saeS, srrB, rot, codY and icaA), enterotoxins (sea and seb) and metabolic factors (pyk and pyruvate, purR and xanthosine monophosphate) were monitored.

Regulation of labile fraction of excreted manure represents a promising advance for environmental pollution mitigation. However, investigation of the properties of various pollutant fractions within manure and potential influence of dietary nutrient fractions on the release of labile manure remains unclear. Feeding trials involving pigs at three distinct growth stages fed by diets with nine different energy levels were conducted and the characteristics of labile manure generated under various treatments based on nutrient profiles were analyzed.

As the mobile cassette carrier of the methicillin resistance gene that is transported across staphylococci species, the evolution and origin of Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome (SCC)-and in particular, the composition of and SCC-have been extensively discussed in the scientific literature; however, information regarding its dissemination across geographical limits and evolution over decades remains limited. In addition, whole-genome sequencing-based macro-analysis was unable to provide sufficiently detailed evolutionary information on SCC. Herein, the cassette chromosome recombinase genes , as essential components of SCC, were employed to explore the evolution of SCC.

Prepubertal chemotherapy induced ovarian damage poses a significant threat to female fertility, particularly following cyclophosphamide (CP) treatment. Humanin (HNG), a small molecule polypeptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA, has a variety of effects, this study aimed to investigate the protective effects of HNG and its combination with conventional Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Agonist (GnRHa) on ovarian function in a CP-induced damage model. The 21-day-old C57BL/6 J female mice were randomly assigned to six groups: Control, CP model, HNG, HNG+CP, GnRHa+CP, and HNG+GnRHa+CP.

Conventional electronic chip packaging generates a huge thermal resistance due to the low thermal conductivity of the packaging materials that separate chip dies and coolant. Here we propose and fabricate a closed high-conducting heat chip package based on passive phase change, using silicon carbide which is physically and structurally compatible with chip die materials. Our "chip on vapor chamber" (CoVC) concept realizes rapid diffusion of hot spots, and eliminates the high energy consumption of refrigeration ordinarily required for heat management.

The disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) is a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. As incineration becomes the primary method of MSW disposal in China, MSW incineration (MSWI) plants are expected to play a crucial role in mitigating GHG emissions in the waste sector. This study estimated the quarterly GHG emissions from two representative MSWI plants in Qingdao using a life-cycle assessment (LCA) approach.

Regulation of dietary nutrient fractions to control the release of labile manure pollutants in swine production remains a challenge. Feeding trials were conducted to assess the impact of dietary nutrient fractions on labile manure composition and pollution potential in pigs at different growth stages. The pigs were selected based on age (weaning = 60 days, feeding = 100 days, and finishing = 160 days), health, and average body weight (23.

Objective: This study aims to investigate alterations in immune cell counts within preovulatory follicles of patients with poor ovarian response (POR) during assisted reproductive technology (ART), classified according to the POSEIDON criteria.

Methods: This single-centre cross-sectional study included 543 women undergoing IVF/ICSI treatment, selected based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria: 292 with normal ovarian response and 251 with poor response. Follicular fluid (FF) was collected on the day of oocyte retrieval and analysed by flow cytometry to determine the proportions of macrophages (Mφs), M1 and M2 Mφs, T cells (CD4 and CD8 T cells), dendritic cells (DCs), including type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1) and type 2 conventional dendritic cells (cDC2), and neutrophils.

The landfill mining process is a main source of anthropogenic bioaerosol release, posing potential risks to the health of occupationally exposed personnel and nearby residents. In this study, microbial aerosolization behavior and potential pathogenicity during the landfill mining process were systematically investigated. The highest concentration of bacterial aerosols was measured in the refuse mining area, with a value of 5968 ± 1608 CFU/m, while the highest concentration of fungal aerosols was 1196 ± 370 CFU/m in the refuse screening area.

Male patients who undergo prepubertal chemotherapy face the dual problems of fertility preservation in adulthood, including low testosterone, hypersexual function, and infertility. Humanin, as a small polypeptide coded within the mitochondrial DNA, with the mitochondrial short open reading frame named MOTS-c, both was believed to regulate mitochondrial homeostasis, be anti-inflammatory, improve metabolism, anti-apoptosis, and multiple pharmacological effects. However, there exists little evidence that reported Humanin and MOTS-c 's effects on moderating male spermatogenic function of patients after prepubertal chemotherapy.
