Malanin is a new type II ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) purified from , a rare, endangered tree is only found in the southwest of Guangxi Province and the southeast of Yunnan Province, China. The gene coding sequence of malanin was found from the cDNA library of seeds by employing the ten N-terminal amino acid sequences of malanin, DYPKLTFTTS for chain-A and DETXTDEEFN (X was commonly C) for chain-B. The results showed a 65% amino acid sequence homology between malanin and ricin by DNAMAN 9.

The results showed that CoFe@PAL prepared at impregnation solution of 50 g L and calcination temperature of 500 °C showed the best catalytic performance. The removal efficiency of RhB (10 mg L) by PMS (0.

However, the used photon counting technology has the problem of long integration time and sensitivity to background photons, which limit its application in real-world scenarios. In this paper, a novel passive up-conversion single-photon imaging method is proposed, in which the high frequency scintillation information of a near infrared target is captured by using the quantum compressed sensing.
