Direct detection of Yersinia pestis from the infected animal specimens by a fiber optic biosensor

The FOB-3, anew type fiber optic biosensor, is designed to rapidly detect a variety of biological agents or analytes with better stability, sensitivity and specificity. In order to detect Y. Pestis, a sandwich immunoassay was developed by using the purified antibody against antigen FI immobilized on polystyrene probes as the capture antibody and the monoclonal antibody-Cy5 conjugate as the detector. After a series of optimization for the stability, sensitivity and specificity of the FOB-3, 50-1000 ng/ml of antigen FI and 6 x 10(1)-6 x 10(7) CFU/ml Y. pestis could be detected constantly in about 20 min, and Y pestis could be detected specifically from Y. pseudotuberculosis, Y. enterocolitica, B. anthracis and E. coli. Then, 39 blind samples, including 27 tissues of mice infected with Y pestis and 12 tissues of healthy mice as negative control, were detected with the FOB-3. 92.6% infected tissues were identified from the tissues of healthy mice and the tissues containing more than 100 CFU/ml bacteria could be detected by the biosensor. The results demonstrated the feasibility of the FOB-3 as an effective method to detect Y. pestis rapidly and directly from the infected animal specimens with the advantage of portability, simple-operation as well as high sensitivity and specificity.

Dynamics of quantum dissipation systems interacting with fermion and boson grand canonical bath ensembles: Hierarchical equations of motion approach

A hierarchical equations of motion formalism for a quantum dissipation system in a grand canonical bath ensemble surrounding is constructed on the basis of the calculus-on-path-integral algorithm, together with the parametrization of arbitrary non-Markovian bath that satisfies fluctuation-dissipation theorem. The influence functionals for both the fermion or boson bath interaction are found to be of the same path integral expression as the canonical bath, assuming they all satisfy the Gaussian statistics. However, the equation of motion formalism is different due to the fluctuation-dissipation theories that are distinct and used explicitly. The implications of the present work to quantum transport through molecular wires and electron transfer in complex molecular systems are discussed. (c) 2007 American Institute of Physics.

毛乌素沙区土壤养分对湿地退化的响应

采用湿地生态理论中空间替代时间的研究方法,以毛乌素沙区退化湿地为研究对象,选择距退化湿地水面不同距离,具有不同地下水位埋深的研究区域代表湿地不同退化阶段,通过分析5个不同阶段退化湿地土壤的有机质、全氮、全磷随水平距离的变化特征,研究了土壤养分对湿地退化不同退化程度的响应特征。结果表明,不同退化阶段土壤有机质与全氮剖面均具有一个明显的富集层,既湿地退化前的泥炭沉积层。该沉积层在剖面中所处深度随退化程度的加剧而逐渐增加,且沉积层以上深度的有机质和全氮含量趋于一致。土壤中全磷含量在剖面波动较大,分布特征无明显规律,不同水平距离全磷平均含量无明显变化规律说明湿地退化对全磷含量无明显影响。以上研究结果表明,由于流动沙丘入侵是导致毛乌素沙地湿地退化的首要原因,湿地退化导致土壤有机质和全氮富集层深度逐渐下移,平均含量逐渐下降,而对全磷影响不大。

侵蚀环境人工灌木林土壤活性有机碳与碳库管理指数演变

采用时空互代法,以黄土丘陵区纸坊沟流域生态恢复过程中不同年限的人工柠条和沙棘林为研究对象,选取坡耕地和天然侧柏林为对照,分析了植被恢复过程中土壤有机碳(TOC)、活性有机碳(LOC)、非活性有机碳(NLOC)及碳库管理指数的演变特征。结果表明,侵蚀环境下的坡耕地由于人为干扰,土壤碳库含量偏低,退耕营造柠条林可以显著增加土壤碳库各组分含量,并随恢复年限呈显著线性关系,25 a时TOC、LOC和NLOC分别较坡耕地增加271%、144%和204%,仅为侧柏林的32%、30%和29%,碳库指数和碳库管理指数较坡耕地明显增加,增幅分别达到144%和108%,仅为侧柏林的28%和43%;不同灌木林对土壤碳库管理的改善作用不同,恢复年限相同的沙棘林土壤碳库组分含量和管理指数明显高于柠条林,坡耕地营造灌木林后土壤经营和管理水平得到了显著改善,土壤系统向着良性方向转变。相关性分析表明有机碳、活性有机碳、非活性有机碳、碳库指数、碳库管理指数与土壤主要肥力因子相关性极其密切,可以作为反映生态恢复过程土壤质量演变的指标。

A quick isolation method for mutants with high lipid yield in oleaginous yeast

A novel method has been developed to easily isolate the mutants with high lipid yield after irradiating oleaginous yeast cells with carbon ions of energy of 80 MeV/u. Pre-selection of the mutants after ion irradiation was performed with culture medium in which the concentration of cerulenin, a potent inhibitor of fatty acid synthetase, was at 8.96 mu mol/l. Afterwards, lipid concentration in the fermentation broth of the pre-selected colonies was estimated by the sulfo-phospho-vanillin reaction instead of the conventional methanol-chloroform extraction. Two mutants with high lipid yield have been successfully selected out by the combined method. This easy and simple method is much less time-consuming but very efficient in the mutant isolation, and it has demonstrated great potential on mutation breeding in oleaginous microorganism.

Particle transfer and fusion cross-section for super-heavy nuclei in dinuclear system

Within the dinuclear system (DNS) conception, instead of solving the Fokker-Planck equation (FPE) analytically, the master equation is solved numerically to calculate the fusion probability of super-heavy nuclei, so that the harmonic oscillator approximation to the potential energy of the DNS is avoided. The relative motion concerning the energy, the angular momentum and the fragment deformation relaxations is explicitly treated to couple with the diffusion process. The nucleon transition probabilities, which are derived microscopically, are related with the energy dissipation of the relative motion. Thus they are time dependent. Comparing with the analytical solution of FPE at the equilibrium, our time-dependent results preserve more dynamical effects. The calculated evaporation residue cross-sections for one-neutron emission channel of Pb-based reactions are basically in agreement with the known experimental data within one order of magnitude.

Two-electron-one-photon M1 and E2 transitions between the states of the 2p(3) and 2s(2)2p odd configurations for B-like ions with 18 <= Z <= 92

Two-electron-one-photon (TEOP) M1 and E2 transition energies, line strengths and transition probabilities between the states of the 2p(3) and 2s(2)2p odd configurations for B-like ions with 18 <= Z <= 92 have been calculated using the GRASP2K package based on the multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock (MCDHF) method. Employing active-space techniques to expand the configuration list, we have systematically considered the valence, core-valence and core-core electron correlation effects. Breit interaction and quantum electrodynamical (QED) effects were also included to correct atomic state wavefunctions and the corresponding energies. Influences of electron correlation, Breit interaction and QED effects on transition energies and line strengths of the TEOP M1 and E2 transitions were analysed in detail. The present results were also compared with other theoretical and experimental values.

基于重离子输运理论对超重核合成及非对称核物质状态方程的研究

本论文基于重离子输运理论模型对当前人们感兴趣的超重核合成及非对称核物质状态方程做了研究。基于双核系统概念建立了一个描述超重核合成的理论模型。这个模型中通过求解Fokker-Planck方程来描述重离子碰撞过程的能量、角动量以及形变等的弛豫过程，从而合理地包含了重离子熔合过程中的动力学效应。在求解弹靶的质量扩散时采用了数值求解主方程的方法，避免对势能面做任何近似，因此能够充分地体现重离子熔合过程中弹靶的结构效应。本文利用这一模型计算了重离子熔合形成超重元素的最佳激发能、熔合几率、复合核的存活几率以及蒸发剩余核截面等，并给出了合成超重核的最佳弹靶组合。计算了超重核形成的最佳激发能，在符合已有最佳激发能实验数据的基础上预言了基于冷熔合反应合成114，116和118号元素的最佳激发能。计算了重离子熔合反应的熔合几率。结果表明，随着反应系统变得越来越重，重离子的熔合几率呈指数规律下降，准裂变变得越来越严重。这解释了实验上观测到的超重剩余核截面随体系的变重而急剧下降的现象。研究了重离子熔合截面的弹靶相关性。结果表明弹靶的质量非对称度越高越有利于熔合生成复合核，同时重离子熔合截面还强烈地依赖于弹靶结构。重离子的熔合过程是合成超重元素的关键因素之一，另一个影响超重核合成的因素是超重复合核的存活几率。基于统计模型，系统的研究了超重复合核存活几率的质量、能量、角动量等相关性。计算了基于冷熔合反应的蒸发剩余截面，得到的结果与实验基本符合，并预言了基于冷熔合反应生成114，116和115号元素的截面。在研究超重核蒸发剩余截面的弹靶相关性的基础上给出了合成超重核的最佳弹靶组合。计算表明，在挑选弹靶组合时使得合成的超重复合核是奇A核则会得到更高的奇数中子蒸发剩余核截面。计算给出了超重复合核的自旋布居及其对裂变位垒和鞍点态形变的依赖性。发现超重复合核的自旋布居强烈地依赖于复合核的裂变位垒，高的裂变位垒会给出宽的自旋布居；而超重复合核的自旋布居对鞍点态形变不是很敏感。另外研究了多核子转移反应合成超重元素的可能性。结果表明基于多核子转移反应合成大于108号的元素是很困难的。非对称核物质状态方程由于其对天体物理及理解奇异核结构的重要性，因此是人们长期以来一直感兴趣的研究内容，然而直到现在人们对核物质状态方程特别是高密核物质和非对称核物质状态状态方程仍了解甚少。基于Skyrme-Hartree-Fock理论以及同位旋相关的量子分子动力学（IQMD）模型研究了非对称核物质的化学不稳定性，结果表明非对称核物质可以发生化学不稳定性，且化学不稳定性发生的条件依赖于单粒子势能的密度相关形式。同时计算表明化学不稳定性是可以发生在真实的重离子碰撞过程中的，且在入射能量较高时化学不稳定性会消失。另外首次研究了高密核物质的化学不稳定性及其发生的条件。由于实验室很难达到很高密度的核物质，而中子星是由致密的极丰中子物质组成，因此提供了研究高密非对称核物质的自然实验室。基于Skyrme-Hartree-Fock理论研究了两种典型的非对称核物质状态方程（软对称势和硬对称势）对中子星中质子百分比的影响。另外研究了热中子星中质子百分比的温度相关性，发现热中子星中质子百分比随温度的升高而减小。基于IQMD模型研究了同位旋相分化现象的产生机制。通过与MSU的实验数据比较指出核物质应该有软的对称势。研究了重离子碰撞过程中的径向流现象，及其同位旋效应。计算了径向流产生的能量闭，并给出了实验上利用径向流产生的能量闭来提取非对称核物质状态方程的方法。

CSR随机冷却研究

随机冷却是用一个宽带反馈系统对束流进行衰减，位于束流上游的探测器探测到与粒子偏差成正比的电子学信号，这一输出信号经过放大滤波系统后被加到下游的冲击器上，粒子在冲击器上得到正比于偏差的校正，从而达到冷却的目的。随机冷却可以用于粒子储存环任意能区的冷却，尤其是对大动量分散的次级束、高能束、稀有粒子束有其独特的作用，并与电子冷却互补。本论文首先对随机冷却的发展历史及贡献作了叙述，并对国外研究现状以及随机冷却同其它冷却的不同作了描述，继而提出了在HIRFL-CSR上建立随机冷却的重要性、必要性以及条件的成熟性。接着本论文对Schottky噪声信号理论、随机冷却理论（分别在时域和频域下）作了详细的推导和描述，并对-Schoftky噪声诊断和用于随机冷却系统测量和束流稳定性分析的束流传输函数作了一定的分析和讨论。由于探测器和冲击器在随机冷却中起着核心作用，因此也对探测器和冲击器作了一定的研究。最后，也是本论文的核心部分，根据CSR的实际情况，如环的Lattice参数，环上元件布置，现有Sdhottky诊断装置以及资金等，对CSR随机冷却做了初步的设计和优化，用冷却方程和Fokker-Planck方程对CSR随机冷却做了详细的数值模拟计算，得到了最佳带宽、冷却时间、频谱上束流谱密度分布函数随时间的变化，以及在冷却过程中的束流分布变化等值，并且对功率限定情况作了讨论研究表明随机冷却对CSR束流冷却速度很快，冷却效果很好。并对电子冷却和随机冷却做了比较，提出对CSR束流冷却用电子冷却和随机冷却相结合的办法，先用随机冷却粗冷，再用电子冷却精细冷却，这样可以得到更高流强更好品质的束流。本文对具体冷却系统的设计补优代；健滇码运行有重要意义为CSR随机冷却系统的建造做了充分的准备，也为实验数据的分析提供了理论依据。

The phase behavior of comblike block copolymer A(m+1)B(m)/homopolymer A mixtures

The phase behaviors of comblike block copolymer A(m+1)B(m)/homopolymer A mixtures are studied by using the random phase approximation method and real-space self-consistent field theory. From the spinodals of macrophase separation and microphase separation, we can find that the number of graft and the length of the homopolymer A have great effects on the phase behavior of the blend. For a given composition of comblike block copolymer, increasing the number of graft does not change the macrophase separation spinodal curve but decreases the microphase separation region. The addition of a small quantity of long-chain homopolymer A increases the microphase separation of comblike block copolymer/homopolymer A mixture.
