In the present study, a facile in situ approach for constructing tunable amphiphilic or hydrophilic antifouling membrane surfaces was demonstrated by exquisitely manipulating microphase separation and surface segregation behavior of tailor-made ternary block copolymers during commonly utilized wet phase inversion membrane-formation process. Under dead-end filtration oily wastewater treatment, with exhibited over 99.5% retention ratio chemical oxygen demand (COD) without appreciable fouling:...
Air quality forecasting is a significant method of protecting public health because it provides early warning harmful air pollutants. In this study, we used correlation analysis and artificial neural networks (ANNs; including wavelet ANNs [WANNs]) to identify the linear nonlinear associations, respectively, between pollution index (API) meteorological variables in Xi’an Lanzhou. Evaluating twelve algorithms nineteen network topologies for ANN WANN models, discovered that optimal input an API...
Bacteriophages (phages) play critical roles in modulating microbial ecology. Within the human microbiome, factors influencing long-term coexistence of phages and bacteria remain poorly investigated. Saccharibacteria (formerly TM7) are ubiquitous members oral microbiome. These ultrasmall form episymbiotic relationships with their host impact physiology. Here, we showed that during surface-associated growth, a isolate (named TM7x) protects its bacterium, Schaalia odontolytica strain XH001)...
Abstract. Molecular distributions and stable carbon isotopic (δ13C values) compositions of dicarboxylic acids related secondary organic aerosols (SOA) in PM2.5 collected on a day/night basis at the summit Mt. Tai (1534 m a.s.l.) summer 2016 were analyzed to investigate sources photochemical aging process forested highland region North China Plain. The molecular SOA are characterized by dominance oxalic acid (C2), followed malonic (C3), succinic (C4) azelaic (C9) acids. concentration ratios...
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and chlorinated polyvinyl (CPVC) were used as membrane materials to fabricate blend ultrafiltration membranes. Polyethylene glycol (PEG2000) polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide-polyethylene oxide triblock copolymer (Pluronic F127) both pore forming agent surface modifier improve the permeability. The advantage of amphiphilic Pluronic F127 is that it enables higher −CH2–CH2–O– segment coverage on surfaces. increase CPVC proportion in could water fluxes PVC/CPVC...
In China, the rate of downward referral is relatively low, as most people are unwilling to be referred from hospitals community health systems (CHSs). The aim this study was explore effect doctors' and patients' practices attitudes on their willingness for relationship between sociodemographic characteristics.Doctors patients 13 tertiary in Shanghai were stratified through random sampling. questionnaire surveyed characteristics, towards CHSs hospitals, understanding referral, recognition...
Objectives Doctors in public hospitals China face considerable pressure and excessive workloads, which are likely to predispose them job dissatisfaction. We explored the satisfaction of doctors examined influence diverse sociodemographic characteristics. Design This was a cross-sectional study. Setting Eleven tertiary Shanghai, China. Participants The questionnaire designed based on fifth National Health Service General Research, Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire. Questionnaires were...
The evolutionary arms race between bacterial immunity and phages has driven the emergence of sophisticated anti-defense systems (ADSs). However, certain ADSs exhibit incomplete suppression their cognate defense systems, suggesting functional cooperation multiple targeting same safeguard. In this study, we characterize Dap2, a protein encoded by Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage PaoP5, which directly binds to Lon protease prevent degradation phage-encoded HNH endonuclease. Deletion dap2 in PaoP5...

Enterococcus faecalis is a common gram-positive non-spore-forming bacterium in nature and found the upper respiratory tract, intestine, mouth of healthy people. E. also one pathogens causing nosocomial infections resistant to several antibiotics commonly used practice. Thus, treating drug-resistant with challenging, new approaches are needed. In this study, we isolated bacteriophage named EFap02 that targets strain EFa02 from sewage at Southwest Hospital. Phage belongs Siphoviridae family...
Most patients in the People's Republic of China prefer tertiary hospitals when seeking medical services. The aim this study was to assess outpatient satisfaction with China, test overall and subscale satisfaction, explore whether sociodemographic characteristics lead different degrees contributes satisfaction.A closed questionnaire given out investigate outpatients' characteristics, various subtypes a 5-point Likert scale employed measure degree satisfaction. Descriptive analysis,...
To tackle the formidable challenges posed by extreme cold weather events, significant advancements have been made in developing functional surfaces capable of efficiently removing accreted ice. Nevertheless, many these still require external energy input, such as electrical power, which raises concerns regarding their alignment with global sustainability goals. Over past decade, increasing attention has directed toward photothermal surface designs that harness solar energy-a resource...
The introduction of perfluoroalkyl groups played an important role in enhanced antifouling ability oil/water emulsion membrane separation. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and chlorinated polyvinyl (CPVC) blend membranes were used to prepare the novel fluorinated membranes. Amination treatment PVC/CPVC was first carried out through chemical grafting with ethylenediamine (EDA). Fluorination then achieved reaction between redundant amino group EDA carboxyl pentadecafluorooctanoica acid. component...
The traditional Sichuan Sun-dried vinegar (SSV) with unique flavor and taste is believed to be generated by the solid-state fermentation craft. However, how microorganisms their metabolites change along has not yet been explored.In this study, our results demonstrated that middle late stages of SSV were periods showing largest accumulation organic acids amino acids. Furthermore, in bacterial community, highest average relative abundance was Lactobacillus (ranging from 37.55 92.50%) all...
