Based on the one-year observational data of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in an urban area of Yuncheng in 2021, the concentration, composition, sources, and ozone-sensitive species of VOCs in four seasons were analyzed. The results showed that the average annual concentration of VOCs was (32.1 ±24.

To seek effective and sustainable methods to control the pest, it is necessary to assess its host preference among different species of tea and understand the critical factors behind this behavior. In this study, the behavioral preference of for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of three potted tea species was evaluated.

At the same time, the main emission sources were determined using a PMF model, and the chemical reactivity of VOCs was evaluated using the maximum incremental reactivity (MIR) method and fractional aerosol coefficients (FAC). The results showed that the urban area of Yuncheng was seriously polluted by VOCs and NO in the early morning and evening during summer, the peak value of VOCs daily variation occurred at 08:00 and 20:00, respectively, and was mainly affected by the morning and evening peaks in traffic.

The study prediminantly analyzed the chemical components of water-soluble ions, elemental carbon, organic carbon, and metal elements. Additionally, the chemical mass reconstruction method of particulate matter and the positive matrix factorization model (PMF) were combined for an in-depth discussion.

Fomesafen, a widely adopted residual herbicide, is used throughout the soybean region of northern China for the spring planting. However, the ecological risks of using fomesafen in soil remain unknown. The aim of this work was to evaluate the impact of fomesafen on the microbial community structure of soil using laboratory and field experiments.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is the fluid surrounding the central nervous system, and the protein and lipid content alterations in the CSF could be biomarkers for degenerative changes in the brain. The laboratory diagnosis of AD is limited to the analysis of three biomarkers in CSF: Aβ42, total tau, and phospho-tau.

By using phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA) method, this paper studied the soil microbial community structure in the soybean fields with different chlorimuron-ethyl application history in Weihe district of Heilongjiang Province. In the meantime, the residual amount of chlorimuron-ethyl in soil was determined. There was a very low residual of chlorimuron-ethyl in soil under the conditions of different chlorimuron-ethyl application history.

The inorganic particles hybrid polyimide films are newly emerging advanced materials with excellent corona-resistant and have been widely used in frequency control motor. The Al2O3/PI hybrid films with different Al2O3 contents were prepared by superfine aluminum power treated by coupling agent and polyamide acid (PAA). Qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis on the inorganic content to it were conducted using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscope (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Inductively coupled plasma spectrometry (ICP), Gravimetric method, Thermogravimetric Analysis (TG/air atmosphere).

The key to the study on the regularity about the mechanical, thermology and electricities property of the inorganic nano-mingled organic composition thin film is to understand the incorporated quantity, the particle size and distribution of nano-inorganic matter in the membrane quickly and accurately. In the present paper, the chemical structure, surface morphology and the actual content of nano-Al2O3 of the nano Al2O3-composite film of polyimide were characterized by X-ray atomic fluorescent spectroscopy (XRF), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic forced microscope (AFM). The results are that the organic phase of PI and the inorganic phase of Al2O3 formed a complex composite hybrid system of bond-to-bond pattern, the nano-Al2O3 particles in the film of PI are dispersed homogeneously, and the diameter of the particle is smaller than 50 nm; the weight content of Al2O3 is 7.

We present a new mixing rigid-elastic multiresolution algorithm for medical image registration from global registration to local registration in sequence. The global registration is achieved by the method of affine transformation composed of B spline, which knots are the four vertexes of the medical image. When increasing the number of the knots of the B spline along the X and Y axis, the transformation function will be more complex and "elastic", which can complete the elastic aligning for the detail of the medical image.
