A set of anaerobic-anoxic-aerobic (A/O) bio-reactor system was used to treat domestic sewage mixed with landfill leachate and fecal sewage in Datansha Sewage Treatment Plant in Guangzhou China. The experiment investigated the optimal mixing proportion of treating landfill leachate, fecal sewage mixed with domestic sewage synchronously and the optimal running conditions for the removal efficienc...

A novel series of (3-diethoxyphosphoryl)isoxazolidines substituted at C5 with various quinazolinones have been synthesized by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-methyl-C-(diethoxyphosphoryl)nitrone with N3-substitued 2-vinyl-3H-quinazolin-4-ones. All isoxazolidines were assessed for antiviral activity against a broad range of DNA and RNA viruses. Isoxazolidines trans-11f/cis-11f (90:10), trans-...

Proliferation was studied in the nasal epithelium of rhesus monkey embryos ranging in age from 26 through 41 days of gestation (stages 13-20). Labeling indices were tabulated 1 h after an intrachorionic injection with [3H]thymidine, and the distribution of labeled cells was determined at intervals ranging from 1h to 11h after injection. The labeling index showed a chronological decrease from 69...

Venenum Bufonis, a well-known traditional Chinese medicine, has been widely used in Asia and has gained popularity in Western countries over the last decade. Venenum Bufonis has obvious side effects that have been observed in clinical settings, but few studies have reported on its cardiotoxicity. In this work, the cardiotoxicity of Venenum Bufonis was investigated using a 11H NMR-based metabolo...

We discuss methods that can be used to estimate the spatial correlation length r0 of galaxy samples from the observed number of pairs with similar redshifts. The standard method is unnecessarily noisy and can be compromised by errors in the assumed selection function. We present three alternatives, one less noisy, one that responds differently to systematic errors, the third insensitive to the ...

The protein kinase ERK5 (MAPK7) is an emerging drug target for a variety of indications, in particular for cancer where it plays a key role mediating cell proliferation, survival, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and angiogenesis. To date, no three-dimensional structure has been published that would allow rational design of inhibitors. To address this, we determined the X-ray crystal structur...

Children (N = 18) between 11h and 3 years were videotaped in dyadic interaction with their 4or 5-year-old older siblings, their 7or 8-year-old older siblings, and their mothers. The child-directed speech of the three groups of older speakers was analyzed for characteristics generally thought to be supportive of young children's language development and in terms of its relation to the age of the...
