Analysis of Structure and Antioxidant Activity of Polysaccharides from .

We extracted, purified, and characterized three neutral and three acidic polysaccharides from the roots, stems, and leaves of Kitigawa. The results of the analysis of monosaccharide composition indicated that the polysaccharides from the roots and stems were more similar to each other than they were to the polysaccharides from the leaves. The in vitro antioxidant results demonstrated that the acidic polysaccharides had stronger antioxidant activity than the neutral fractions.

Study on the Biochemical Characterization and Selectivity of Three β-Glucosidases From ATCC15703.

Three β-glucosidases from ATCC15703, namely, BaBgl1A, BaBgl3A, and BaBgl3B, were overexpressed in . The recombinant β-glucosidases were sufficiently purified using Ni affinity chromatography, and BaBgl1A exhibited the best purification efficiency with a purification factor of 2.3-fold and specific activity of 71.

Study on skylight polarization patterns over the ocean for polarized light navigation application.

Polarized skylight navigation has excellent navigation performance with no error accumulation over time and low susceptibility to interference. The skylight polarization distribution contains rich directional information, such as the solar meridian, the neutral point, and the polarization angle, which plays a key role in the polarization navigation. But up to now the polarizations of both sunlit and moonlit skies have been investigated mainly over the land.
