Background: Megasphaera elsdenii is an ecologically important rumen bacterium that metabolizes lactate and relieves acidosis (RA) induced by a high-grain-diet. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms of metabolism this species in RA conditions might contribute to developing dietary strategies alleviate acidosis. Methods: was co-cultured with four producers (Streptococcus bovis, Lactobacilli fermentum, Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens Selenomonas ruminantium) series substrate starch doses (1, 3 9...
Abscisic acid (ABA) regulates plant development and adaptation to environmental conditions. Although the ABA biosynthesis pathway in plants has been thoroughly elucidated, how biosynthetic genes are regulated at molecular level during is less well understood. Here, we show that tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) zinc finger transcription factor SlZFP2 involved regulation of fruit development. Overexpression resulted multiple phenotypic changes, including more branches, early flowering, delayed...
With the ever-increasing growth in next-generation flexible and wearable electronics, fiber-shaped zinc-air batteries have attracted considerable attention due to their advantages of high energy density low cost, though development, however, has been seriously hampered by unavailability efficient electrocatalysts. In this work, we designed a trimetallic nitride electrocatalyst an unusual molecular sheet form, which was stabilized metallic titanium carbide sheets. Besides expected elevation...
With the rapid development of portable devices and wireless protocols, miniaturized energy storage units have become an important prerequisite. Although in-plane microsupercapacitors are emerging as competitive candidate devices, their practical applications been severely hindered by low density. Here, employing pseudocapacitive active materials working in complementary voltage windows, namely, manganese oxide (MnO2) titanium carbide (Ti3C2), both two-dimensional sheet morphology, a flexible...
Silicon (Si) has been gradually explored as a next-generation anode material to replace traditional graphite anodes in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due its high specific capacity (3579 mAh g–1 at room temperature). In terms of cost and tap density, silicon microparticles (SiMPs) are more advantageous than nanoparticles (SiNPs) energy density LIBs, but they also plagued by the serious volume effect. Here, we design silicon/carbon (Si/C) composite through situ polymerization phenolic resin...
This study investigated the effects of dietary l-arginine (Arg) and N-carbamylglutamate (NCG) supplementation on intestinal integrity, immune function, oxidative status in intrauterine-growth-retarded (IUGR) suckling lambs. A total 48 newborn Hu lambs normal birth weight (CON) IUGR were allocated randomly into four groups 12 animals each: CON, IUGR, + 1% Arg, or 0.1% NCG. All raised for a period 21 days from 7 to 28 after birth. The Arg NCG group exhibited improved ( p < 0.05) final body...
Micro silicon (Si) has been one of the most promising anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to high theoretical specific capacity and material sources. Nonetheless, an unavoidable huge volume expansion Si microparticles (SiMPs) uncontrolled growth solid–electrolyte interphase (SEI) during cycling still inhibit its commercialization. Among strategies overcome these problems, design a polymer binder is more feasible. Herein, derived from two common polymers, polyurethane (PU)...
Silicon microparticles (SiMPs) have been gradually explored as the anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) because they higher tap density and lower cost than nanostructured Si thus are more suitable commercial high-energy battery applications. Developing a binder to alleviate volume effect of SiMPs ensure electrode stability during cycling is an effective method. Here, we propose water-soluble by integrating carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) with polydopamine (PDA) prepared from...
Intramuscular fat (IMF) is one of the key factors affecting quality livestock meat, as it closely related to muscle color, tenderness, juiciness, water-holding capacity and flavor. The IMF deposition impacted complexly by various factors, including animal breeds, age, feed, mi-crobiota. Currently, there a shortage research exploring similarities differences in between goats sheep from microbial perspective. Thus, we selected Longdong cashmere (n=10) Tan subjects our research, both which are...
Nectar is a primary nutrient reward for variety of pollinators. Recent studies have demonstrated that nectar also has defensive functions against microbial invasion. In this study, the Liriodendron tulipifera nectary was first examined by scanning electron microscopy, and then analyzed two-dimensional gel electrophoresis liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, which led to identification 42 proteins involved in various biological functions. Bioinformatic analysis performed on an...

Abstract Heteroatom nitrogen doping in two‐dimensional transition metal carbides, known as MXenes, has been considered a promising strategy for modulating their electronic structure and electrochemical reactivity. While high‐temperature annealing the presence of source one popular method to introduce nitrogen, exfoliated multilayered MXenes typically brings about incomplete delamination treatment delaminated monolayer often leads irreversible restacking. Here, starting from typical carbide...
