STUDIES FOR THE EQUATION OF STATE IN THE ISOSPIN ASYMMETRICAL NUCLEAR INTERACTIONS

In order to determine the equation of state in the isospin asymmetrical nuclear interactions, we have found the observables for extracting the information of them within the isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics in recent years. The several sensitive probes for extracting the information of the in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross section and the symmetry potential have found; meanwhile, their mechanisms are investigated in more details. The main point in this paper gives the summary for above probes and their outlook in the future.

Studies on the doubly charged cluster ions of sodium and potassium nitrates by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry

Doubly charged cluster ions, besides singly charged cluster ions, from sodium and potassium nitrates were produced evidently under normal source capillary temperature of 200 degrees C in both positive and negative ion electrospray ionization (ESI) ion trap mass spectrometry. The fragmentation pathways for doubly charged cluster ions were studied in detail using ESI tandem mass spectrometry and two pathways were observed depending on the cluster sizes of alkali metal nitrates. In addition, factors that affect the formation of cluster ions were also interrogated.

Studies on the hemolytic activity of tentacle extracts of jellyfish Rhopilema esculentum Kishinouye: Application of orthogonal test

The present work is first reporting the hemolytic activity of venom from jellyfish Rhopilema esculentum Kishinouye extracted by different phosphate buffer solutions and incubated at different temperature according to the orthogonal test L6(1) x 3(6). Of the seven controllable independent variables, incubated temperature and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) had strongest effect on the hemolytic activity. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.
