Sowing depth stability analysis and test verification of no-tillage planter parallel 4-bar row unit.

The sowing depth stability and consistency of the no-tillage planter, particularly the high-speed operation, are poor. A reason for this is that the structure and parameter selection of no-tillage planter row unit profiling mechanism are unreasonable. The stability and consistency of sowing depth is beneficial when the upper and lower links of the parallel 4-bar profiling mechanism (PFPM) are parallel to the ground, but this principle is not satisfied on the uneven no-till soil.

Characterization of quantum dot bioconjugates by capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescent detection.

In this paper, we present a universal, highly efficient and sensitive method for the characterization of quantum dot (QD) bioconjugates based on capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescent (LIF) detection. We first prepared CdTe QDs in aqueous phase by a chemical route with mercaptopropionic acid as a ligand, and then were coupled to certain proteins using bifunctional linkage reagent or electrostatic attraction. The QD bioconjugates were characterized by capillary electrophoresis with LIF detection.

Highly efficient size separation of CdTe quantum dots by capillary gel electrophoresis using polymer solution as sieving medium.

In this paper, we present a new method for highly efficient size separation of water-soluble CdTe quantum dots (QDs) based on CGE using polymer solution as sieving medium. CdTe QDs were synthesized in aqueous phase by a chemical route with mercaptopropionic acid as a ligand. In the alkaline solution, CdTe QDs possess negative charges and migrate to the anode in the electric field.
