Since 2012, China has pursued an "ecological civilization" policy to promote green energy, increase environmental protection, and transition to more sustainable growth models. The complicated positive trends in energy consumption, more sustainable economic growth, and ecological management are obscured by China's persistent, significant dependence on fossil fuels, particularly coal. The study aims to analyze how renewable energy use in China affects carbon dioxide emissions and how those impacts change over time, as well as urbanization, industrialization, tourism, and green supply chain management.

Department of Computer Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Hitit University, Corum 19030, Turkey.

A chaotic map with two-dimensional offset boosting is exhaustively studied, which is derived from the Lozi map and shows the controllability of amplitude control. The mechanism of two-dimensional offset boosting is revealed based on the cancelation of offset-involved feedback terms. Furthermore, the coexistence of homogeneous multistability and heterogeneous multistability is disclosed when the offset boosting turns to the initial condition.

Sensitive photoelectric sensing for 5-HMF detection.

Anal Methods

June 2024

School of Chemistry and Material Science, Jiangsu Provincial Key Laboratory of Materials Cycling and Pollution Control, Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing 210023, China.

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) is a heterocyclic compound with six carbons commonly found in heat-treated carbohydrate-rich foods. 5-HMF exceeding the specified limit is cytotoxic to the human body, and will be converted into carcinogenic substances (5-sulfoxide methyl furfural) after long-term accumulation in the body. Therefore, it is highly necessary to develop a sensitive and accurate detection method for 5-HMF in the field of food safety.

Electronic address:

Background: Histamine is a kind of biogenic amine with strong toxicity and potential carcinogenicity. Many traditional methods of detecting histamine have the disadvantages of cumbersome detection steps, expensive equipment, and high professional requirements for staff. In contrast, SERS has become the preferred method for quantitative analysis of histamine because of rich fingerprint information, rapidity and economy.

College of Food Science and Engineering, Collaborative Innovation Center for Modern Grain Circulation and Safety, Key Laboratory of Grains and Oils Quality Control and Processing, Nanjing University of Finance and Economics, Nanjing 210023, China. Electronic address:

Hyperlipidaemia, a common chronic disease, is the cause of cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and atherosclerosis. Generally, drugs for lowering blood lipids have disadvantages such as short or poor efficacy, high toxicity, and side effects. Rapeseed active peptides are excellent substitutes for lipid-lowering drugs because of their high biological safety, strong penetration, and easy absorption by the human body.

This paper investigates the impact of financial Inclusion on household poverty and vulnerability by constructing a household financial inclusion index using the China Household Finance Survey 2015. It is found that financial Inclusion significantly reduces the probability of poverty and vulnerability of households and has a more significant impact on vulnerable groups such as rural and urban low-income people. Further, financial Inclusion has a more significant effect on poor families that do not receive government support for poverty alleviation and can complement co-insurance mechanisms to help families better cope with vulnerabilities caused by synergistic community shocks.
