Intermediate-volatility organic compounds (IVOCs) are important precursors of secondary organic aerosols that have received much recent attention; however, there is a lack of emission data for IVOCs from combustion sources, especially for residential solid fuel combustion. In this study, two bituminous coals with different geological maturity (XZ and LW) and two biomass types (rice stalk and pinewood) were tested at seven temperature points (300-900℃ with an interval of 100℃) using a quartz tube furnace together with a dilution sampling system. The results showed that the averaged emission factor for IVOCs from biomass combustion[(483±182) mg·kg] was 2.

Objective: To investigate the expression of miRNA associated with hepatic fibrosis induced by soluble egg antigen stimulation in mouse hepatocytes (AML12), so as to lay the foundation for clarifying the mechanism of schistosome infection leading to hepatic fibrosis.

Methods: The expressions of miR-122, miR-182, miR-23b, miR27b and KSRP in AML12 cells treated with SEA were measured by q-PCR. KSRP protein in cell lyses was measured by Western blotting.

In the title complex, [Cu(4)Cl(4)(C(58)H(52)N(2)P(4))](n), four Cu(II) atoms are held together via two doubly bridging and two triply bridging chlorides, forming a stair-like Cu(4)Cl(4) core having crystallographically imposed inversion symmetry, while the benzene-1,4-diamine ligand (with a crystallographic inversion center at the centroid) acts in a tetra-dentate coordination mode, bridging two adjacent Cu(4)Cl(4) cores, resulting in a chain along the a-axis direction. One Cu atom has a distorted tetra-hedral geometry, coordinated by one P atom, one μ(2)-Cl and two μ(3)-Cl atoms, while the second Cu atom adopts a trigonal geometry, coordinated by one P atom, one μ(2)-Cl and one μ(3)-Cl atoms.
