THE INDUSTRIAL UTILIZATION OF CHEMICAL MODIFIED AGRICULTURAL RESIDUES

INTRODUCTIONToday, the world's industry is utilizing less than 10% of biomass of raw materials from plantation [1]. Agricultural residues, such as cereal straws are important and abundant renewable organic resources of energy and production of a diversity of chemicals, including ethanol production [2], activated carbon [3] and ion exchangers [4]. Many other applications for Cereal straws are in the process of being developed.In china, wheat, maize and sorghum are the three major crops, w…     

A new class of variational equation problems

Abstract Applying an analysis method to a group of multivariable equations, a new class of variational equations are proved. Thismethod is more concise and more direct than the others. This result can be applied to some stochastic control models.

Long term monitoring of urban subsidence by Permanent Scatterer DInSAR

When using differential SAR interferometry (DInSAR) to monitor the surface deformation over a long time scale, it is often strongly affected by the spatial and temporal decorrelations and atmospheric dishomogeneities. The recently developed Permanent Scatterers (PS) technique proposed by Fertti et al. can overcome these difficulties by interpreting time-series of interferometric phase only at coherent point scatterers. In this study, we apply this PS technique using 25 ERS-1/2 scenes from 1992 to 2000 to monitor the subsidence in Suzhou. By using the linear deformation model, the deformation map in Suzhou urban area over the eight years is obtained. And the calculated results are in good agreement with the measurements of leveling.

Identification of the Angel -related elements in cyprinid fishes and their phylogenetic implications

Angel-related element belongs to the family of miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs). In this paper we report the identification of an Angel- related element in the series Leuciscini of cyprinid fishes, which is located in the second intron of the growth hormone (GH) gene. We have also found that this element is absent in orthologous locus in the series Barbini of cyprinid fishes, that provides new evidence for the monophyly of the series Leuciscini. The insertion of Angel -related element into the GH gene might take place in the common ancestor of the series Leuciscini after its divergence from the series Barbini. The high sequence divergence and relatively broad species distribution of Angel-related elements implies that they might be ancient transposons which appeared about 26 million years ago.     

Solving the State Equation of a System by Walsh Function

In this paper, We deal with the solution of the state equation of a system by the Walsh function, that is, we shall find the solution of a matrix differential equation by the Walsh function, and introduce a solution of the higher-order matrix differential equation. First, after a certain transform, we turn the higher-order matrix differential equation into a state equation. Then we find the solution of the state equation by the Walsh function. Finally after a certain transform, we obtain a solution of the higher-order matrix differential equation.     

One modified method of characteristics used to analyze the multiconductor transmission lines

Molecular cloning and expression of interleukin Ibeta (IL-1β) from red seabream (Pagrus major)

The interleukin 1β (IL-1β) cDNA was cloned from the red seabream (Pagrus major) by homology cloning strategy. A cDNA fragment was amplified by PCR using two degenerated primers, which were designed according to the conserved regions of other known IL-1β sequences, and elongated by 3' ends and 5' ends RACE PCR to get the full length coding sequence of red seabream IL-1β (RS IL-1β). The sequence contained 1252 nucleotides that included a 5' untranslated region (UTR) of 84bp, a 3' UTR of 410 bp and an open reading frame (ORF) of 759 nucleotides which could be translated into a putative peptide of 253 amino acids with molecular weight of 28.6 kD and putative isoelectric point pI of 5.29. The deduced peptide contained two potential N-glycosylation sites and an identifiable IL1 family signature, but lacked the signal peptide and the clear ICE cut site, which were common in other nonmammalian IL-1β genes. The RS IL-1β had the highest homology with piscine IL-1β according to phylogenetic tree analysis.
