The occurrence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is relevant to impaired intestinal mucosal barrier and disordered gut microbiota, subsequently leading excessive production reactive oxygen species (ROS) elevated levels factors. Traditional therapies focus on inhibiting inflammation, but the vast majority involve non-targeted systemic administration, whose long-term use may result in potential side effects. Oral microbial therapy has exhibited great application prospects currently IBD...
An instability with a lower frequency than the toroidicity-induced Alfvén eigenmode was initially identified as beta-induced (BAE). Instabilities characteristic spectral features of this “BAE” are observed in wide variety tokamak plasmas, including plasmas negative magnetic shear. These modes destabilized by circulating beam ions and they transport from plasma core. The scalings these “BAEs” compared to theoretical predictions for modes, kinetic ballooning ion thermal velocity energetic...
How does state censorship shape global creative production? To explore the merger of art and in a context, I adopt micro-sociological approach to examine culture reconceptualize as an ongoing, social process. Based on participant observation within film studio interviews with industry insiders Beijing Los Angeles, investigate how cultural producers navigate China’s rigid system. My analysis reveals censors use multistage gatekeeping intermediated infiltrate process exert influence. then show...
Chemicals of emerging concern (CEC) in pig farm breeding wastewater, such as antibiotics, will soon pose a serious threat to public health. It is therefore essential consider improving the treatment efficiency piggery wastewater terms microorganisms. In order optimize overall system from perspective bacterial community structure and its response environmental factors, five samples were randomly taken each area piggery's using random sampling method. The communities' composition their...
Egg-derived peptides play important roles in insulin secretion and sensitivity, oxidative stress, inflammation, suggesting their possible involvement obesity management. Hence, the aim of this study is to explore alleviating effects IRW (lle-Arg-Trp) IQW (lle-Gln-Trp) on via mouse model induced by a high-fat diet. The entire experimental period lasted eight weeks. results demonstrated that prevented weight gain (6.52%), decreased glucose, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), malonaldehyde,...
We report a novel instrument for synchrotron-based in situ x-ray scattering measurements during injection molding processing. It allows direct, real-time monitoring of molecular-scale structural evolution polymer materials undergoing complex processing operation. The is based on laboratory-scale machine, and employs customized mold tools designed to allow access filling subsequent solidification, while providing sufficient robustness withstand high pressures. use energy, flux synchrotron...
The pyrolysis of siloxane precursors, such as tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), is commonly employed in the flame synthesis and chemical vapor deposition silica nanoparticles. In this work, flow reactor TEOS studied using gas chromatography (GC) synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry (SVUV-PIMS), congener substitution effects from central C atom to Si are investigated through comparison with its hydrocarbon counterpart tetraethoxymethane (TEOM). Pyrolysis models TEOM...
Abstract In this editorial, I argue for a globalized sociology of the arts and culture that transcends West-centered theories practices. To end, two interrelated perspectives—global decentering—are needed. The article commences with brief overview emergence in West, synthesizes major themes emerging from articles thematic series existing literature on creative cultures East Asia. These include local–global dynamics (such as flows, legitimacy, centrality local), regionalization, state support...
Abstract We report process simulations of molecular orientation liquid crystalline polymers for isothermal channel flows in extrusion. The use a “polydomain” model due to Larson and Doi (Larson Doi, J. Rheol ., 35, 539 (1991)), which is implemented by exploiting nearly exact analogy with fiber that widely used analysis composites processing. Simulation results are compared experimental data previously obtained using customized X‐ray capable extrusion die allows wide range flow geometries be...
We report a coordinated experimental/computational study of injection molding commercial thermotropic LCPs. In situ synchrotron x‐ray scattering, combined with customized apparatus, is used to track development molecular orientation during mold filling for LCPs in two simple plaque geometries: square and T‐shaped. While geometrically simple, these flows are characterized by complex inhomogenous mixtures shear extension, which influence development. Use high brilliance radiation coupled speed...
