A New Anthranquinone Glycoside from the Seeds of Cassia obtusifolia

A new anthraquinone glycoside, emodin-l-O-β-gentiobioside 1, together with three known compounds, chrysophanol-l-O-β-gentiobioside 2, physcion-8-O-β-gentiobioside 3, and chrysophanol- 1-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-( 1 → 3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-( 1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside 4 was isolated from the seeds of Cassia obtusifolia. Its structure was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence.     

PARTITION A GRAPH WITH SMALL DIAMETER INTO TWO INDUCED MATCHINGS

§1　IntroductionGraphs considered in this paper are finite and simple.For a graph G,its vertex setandedge set are denoted by V(G) and E(G) ,respectively.If vertices u and v are connected inG,the distance between u and v,denoted by d G(u,v) ,is the length ofa shortest(u,v) -pathin G.The diameter of a connected graph G is the maximum distance between two verticesof G.For X V(G) ,the neighbor set NG(X) of X is defined byNG(X) ={ y∈V(G) \X:there is x∈X such thatxy∈E(G) } .NG({ x} )…     

强双折射光纤中色散效应对偏振模传输的影响

本文研究了在强双折射光纤中色散效应对偏振模传输的影响.发现当二阶色散系数较大时,偏振模能稳定传输,但所需入纤功率较高;当降低二阶色散影响以降低对光源要求时,三阶色散对偏振模长距离传输起破坏作用,三阶色散参量越大,对偏振模的破坏也越大.     

Synthesis and biological evaluation of andrographolide derivatives as potent anti-HIV agents

A series of Andro derivatives were described and evaluated for their anti-HIV activity in vitro.Compound 10 and 16b,of which TI were>10,had some anti-HTV-l activity in vitro.Therein,compound 10 which was the best potent compound,could serve as a new lead for further development of anti-AIDS agents.     

Molecular Modeling of Metabolism for Allergen-Free Low Linoleic Acid Peanuts

It is necessary to eliminate linoleic acid and allergenic arachins from peanuts for good health reasons. Virginia-type peanuts, harvested from plots treated with mineral salts combinations that mimic the subunit compositions of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) were analyzed for fatty acid and arachin compositions by HPLC and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, respectively. Fatty acid desaturase and arachin encoding mRNAs were analyzed by Northern hybridization using the homologous RNAs synthesized by peanut GDH as probes. There were 70?C80?% sequence similarities between the GDH-synthesized RNAs and the mRNAs encoding arachins, fatty acid desaturases, glutamate synthase, and nitrate reductase, which similarities induced permutation of the metabolic pathways at the mRNA level. Modeling of mRNAs showed there were 210, 3,150, 1,260, 2,520, and 4,200 metabolic permutations in the control, NPKS-, NS-, Pi-, NH₄Cl-, and PK-treated peanuts, respectively. The mRNA cross-talks decreased the arachin to almost zero percent in the NPKS- and PK-treated peanuts, and linoleate to ??18?% in the PK-treated peanut. The mRNA cross-talks may account for the vastly reported environmentally induced variability in the linoleate contents of peanut genotypes. These results have quantitatively unified molecular biology and metabolic pathways into one simple biotechnology for optimizing peanut quality and may encourage small-scale industry to produce arachin-free low linoleate peanuts.     

ON F-SENSITIVE PAIRS

In the present paper, we define sensitive pairs via Furstenberg families and discuss the relation of three definitions: sensitivity, F -sensitivity and F -sensitive pairs, see Theorem 1. For transitive systems, we give some sufficient conditions to ensure the existence of F -sensitive pairs. In particular, each non-minimal E system (M system, P system) has positive lower density ( Fs , Fr resp.)-sensitive pairs almost everywhere. Moreover, each non-minimal M system is Fts -sensitive. Finally, by some exampl...     

Magnetic properties and magnetoresistance of Co_xC_(1-x) granular films prepared by magnetron sputtering

Amorphous CoxC1-x granular films were prepared on n-Si(100) substrate by dc magnetron sputtering.The effects of Co concentration,film thickness and annealing temperature on the magnetic properties and magnetoresistance(MR) were investigated.After annealing at 500°C for 0.5 hour,the Co(002) peak of the CoxC1-x(x>2.5 at.%) films was observed,but cracks appeared in the films.Saturation magnetization Ms increased steadily with the increase of Co concentration from 2.5 at.% to 50 at.% and also increased with ann...     

Magnetic properties and large magnetocaloric effects in amorphous Gd-Al-Fe alloys for magnetic refrigeration

A series of the amorphous Gd75-55Al25-5Fe0-40 alloy ribbons were prepared by melt spinning.The structure,magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect(MCE) of these alloys were investigated.The prepared samples have shown the characteristics of a second-order phase transition with zero hysteresis loss and the Tc can be tuned by changing the Fe contents.For the different compositions,the magnetic entropy change(--Sm) for a field change of 0-5 T reached a maximum value of 7.14 J kg-1 K-1 in the Gd70Al20Fe10 a...

We present a system study on the electronic structure and optical property of boron doped semiconducting graphene nanoribbons using the density functional theory. Energy band structure, density of states, deformation density, Mulliken popular and optical spectra are considered to show the special electronic structure of boron doped semiconducting graphene nanoribbons. The C—B bond form is discussed in detail. From our analysis it is concluded that the Fermi energy of boron doped semiconducting graphene nano...     

Highly birefringent octagonal photonic crystal fibers with two zero-dispersion wavelengths

A new highly birefringent octagonal photonic crystal fiber(Hi-Bi OPCF) with a rectangular array of four elliptical airholes in the fiber core region is proposed and analyzed using the full-vector finite element method with anisotropic perfect match layer absorbing boundaries.Numerical results show that the phase birefringence of the photonic crystal fiber(PCF) reaches 3.43×10-2 at the wavelength of 1 550 nm.Moreover,two zero-dispersion wavelengths are achieved in the visible and near infrared wavelength regions for one polarization state but not in the other.
