Jian-Feng Wu,Yan Xu 한국식품과학회 2013 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.22 No.5

Pyrazine compounds in Chinese liquors are one of the most important factors that affect the flavor. However, only limited information is available regarding pyrazine compounds in Chinese liquors. An analytical method for pyrazine compounds (9 pyrazines) was developed using head space solid phase microextraction (HS-SMPE)and gas chromatography with nitrogen-phosphorus detection (GC-NPD). Pyrazine compounds in different types of Chinese liquors collected from different plants were also evaluated and compared by the methods devised in this study. The linearity and recovery with this method were satisfactory in all test cases. Quantitative results revealed that concentrations of 7 pyrazines were higher in the liquors from King’s Luck than from other plants. Further research is needed on the mechanism responsible for high concentrations of pyrazine compounds in Chinese liquors.

Feng Li,Genfu Feng,Jian Tan 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of u- and e- Service, Scienc Vol.9 No.8

With the arrival of global economic integration, the enterprise gradually realized the joint and downstream enterprises form a complementary advantage on its importance to enhance the overall competitiveness of the supply chain. To deal with the corresponding challenges, in this paper, we conduct research on pricing and the advertising coordination of multi retailer supply chain from the general perspectives of common interest maximization. For the two stage supply chain consisting of a single manufacturer and single retailer as the background, study retailers to establish online channel and manufacturers to establish the online channel and applicable condition, the difference between two kinds of the channel model and double channel of supply chain coordination mechanism. The core idea of supply chain management is focus on supply chain node enterprise specializing in their core business, and outsources non-core business to other enterprises, so as to achieve supply chain of all enterprises focus on their good at business. Our research optimizes the traditional game theory framework to achieve the better model for the issues. The experimental analysis verifies the feasibility and the effectiveness of our approach compared with the others.

( Jian Zhang ),( Jian Tang ),( Zhonghui Wang ),( Feng Wang ),( Gang Yu ) 한국인터넷정보학회 2020 KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Syst Vol.14 No.3

The tradeoff between energy conservation and traffic balancing is a dilemma problem in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). By analyzing the intrinsic relationship between cluster properties and long distance transmission energy consumption, we characterize three node sets of the cluster as a theoretical foundation to enhance high performance of WSNs, and propose optimal solutions by introducing rendezvous and Mobile Elements (MEs) to optimize energy consumption for prolonging the lifetime of WSNs. First, we exploit an approximate method based on the transmission distance from the different node to an ME to select suboptimal Rendezvous Point (RP) on the trajectory for ME to collect data. Then, we define data trans-mission routing sequence and model rendezvous planning for the cluster. In order to achieve optimization of energy consumption, we specifically apply the economic theory called Di-minishing Marginal Utility Rule (DMUR) and create the utility function with regard to energy to develop an adaptive energy consumption optimization framework to achieve energy effi-ciency for data collection. At last, Rendezvous Transmission Algorithm (RTA) is proposed to better tradeoff between energy conservation and traffic balancing. Furthermore, via collabo-rations among multiple MEs, we design Two-Orbit Back-Propagation Algorithm (TOBPA) which concurrently handles load imbalance phenomenon to improve the efficiency of data collection. The simulation results show that our solutions can improve energy efficiency of the whole network and reduce the energy consumption of sensor nodes, which in turn prolong the lifetime of WSNs.

Estimation and compensation for deviation of contour in slow tool servo precision turning for complicated curved surface

Feng-Ze Qin,Jian-Wei Ma,Zhen-Yuan Jia,Guan-Lin Li,Jian-Zhou Zhang 대한기계학회 2022 JOURNAL OF MECHANICAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Vol.36 No.8

In the presence of extremely high precision turning the complicated curved surface with geometry features of large slope gradient and multi convex-concave characteristics, the micron-scale deviation of contour resulting from the tracking deviation of the feed axis becomes non-negligible. To diminish the micron-scale contouring deviation, this study presents a valid contouring error estimation and pre-compensation method for slow tool servo (STS) precision turning. Aiming at estimating the tracking deviation of the axis of the turning machine tool in the machining process, the steady-state tracking deviation model of the axis is first constructed. The proposed multiply tangential estimation method is derived from the Taylor series of the foot point. Since the rotation feed movement of the C axis is the main movement in cutting forming movement for STS turning machining, the monotonicity of the displacement for the C axis is ensured. The compensation value for the axis position is derived through the Jacobi matrix of the STS turning machine. With the presented approach, the tool tip location deviation induced by the tracking deviation of the feed axis reduces from 1.087 μm to 0.025 μm. The measurement results of the comparison experiments indicate that with the presented method in this study, the contouring error of the machined part reduces from 5.72 μm to 4.36 μm. The micron-scale contouring error resulting from the tracking deviation of the feed axis is effectually compensated.

Jian Feng Zheng,Tai L Guo 경희대학교 융합한의과학연구소 2009 Oriental Pharmacy and Experimental Medicine Vol.9 No.1

The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of herb formula HDDM, a modification of Huangdan decoction that has been shown to be effective in the treatment of glomerulonephritis and chronic renal failure, on the blood glucose levels in multiple low doses (MLD; 50 mg/kg for five consecutive days) of streptozotocin (STZ)-treated female B6C3F1 mice. Initial studies were performed to compare diabetes induction in five strains (e.g., B6C3F1, NOD, CD-1, C3H/HeN and C57BL/6) of mice by MLD-STZ, and immune changes following the treatment. The results suggested that the order of susceptibility to diabetes induction was NOD ≈ CD-1 > B6C3F1 ≈ C3H > C57BL/6. Furthermore, STZ modulation of T cell development, differentiation and activation might play a role in diabetes induction by MLD-STZ treatment. MLD-STZ-induced diabetes in female B6C3F1 mice was moderate, which allowed the evaluation of drug-induced protection or exacerbation of diabetes to be performed. As such, modulation of blood glucose by HDDM, which consisted of Da Huang (Radix Et Rhizoma Rhei), Huang Qi (Radix Astragali Seu Hedysari), Dan Shen (Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae), Yin Yang Huo (Herba Epimedii), Yi Yi Ren (Semen Coicis or Coix lacryma-jobi), Mai Dong (Radix Ophiopogonis) and Shan Zhu Yu (Fructus Corni), was evaluated in MLD-STZ-treated female B6C3F1 mice. The results suggested that HDDM could lower the blood glucose levels, but it had no immunomodulatory activities. Additionally, HDDM-treated mice exhibited improved glucose tolerance. In conclusion, these studies have suggested that MLD-STZ-induced diabetes in female B6C3F1 mice is a useful model to evaluate drug modulation of diabetes, and that the herb formula HDDM possesses anti-diabetic effects.

<P>In order to exploit the 430-cavity in the active sites of neuraminidases, 22 zanamivir analogs with C-1 and C-4 modification were synthesized, and their inhibitory activities against both group-1 (H5N1, H1N1) and group-2 neuraminidases (H3N2) were determined. Compound <B>9f</B> exerts the most potency, with IC<SUB>50</SUB> value of 0.013, 0.001, and 0.09 μM against H3N2, H5N1, and H1N1, which is similar to that of zanamivir (H3N2 IC<SUB>50</SUB> = 0.0014 μM, H5N1 IC<SUB>50</SUB> = 0.012 μM, H1N1 IC<SUB>50</SUB> = 0.001 μM). Pharmacokinetic studies of compound <B>9f</B> in rats showed a much longer plasma half-life (<I>t</I><SUB>1/2</SUB>) than that of zanamivir following administration (po dose). Molecular modeling provided information about the binding model between the new inhibitors and neuraminidase, with the elongated groups at the C-1-position being projected toward the 430-loop region. This study may represent a novel starting point for the future development of improved antiflu agents.</P><P><B>Graphic Abstract</B> <IMG SRC='http://pubs.acs.org/appl/literatum/publisher/achs/journals/content/jmcmar/2013/jmcmar.2013.56.issue-3/jm3009713/production/images/medium/jm-2012-009713_0009.gif'></P><P><A href='http://pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.1021/jm3009713'>ACS Electronic Supporting Info</A></P>

Jian-Feng Xu,Hui-Bin Wu,Ding-Cai Liu,Long Sha,Wen-Hui Wu,Hua Fan,Yishan Song,Hong-Guang Zhu 대한화학회 2015 Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society Vol.36 No.12

Bioactive natural products were firstly obtained from biogas slurry. Three new 29 carbon skeletons of the pentacyclic triterpenoid compounds 24-norolean-12-ene-3,22-dione (1), 3β-hydroxy-24-norolean-12-ene-22-one (2), 3α-hydroxy-24-norolean-12-ene-22-one (3), as well as one known compound S-equol (4) were isolated and purified from the MeOH extract of chicken manure biogas slurry. The molecular structures of the four compounds were elucidated based on the extensive spectroscopic data analysis, and the structure of Compound 1 was further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structures of Compounds 1, 2, and 3 are similar with oleanolicum and hederagenin that has excellent anti-tumor activities. The cytotoxicity against five cancer cell lines (Hela, A549, MCF7, PC3, and B16) of Compounds 1–4 was tested. Similar to Compound 4 (S-equol), Compounds 1–3 (pentacyclic triterpenoids) showed cytotoxicity activity against different tumor cell lines. Compounds 1–3 showed slightly lower cytotoxicity activities than Compound 4. The IC50 of Compound 4 was determined to be 9.7–27.6 μM, while the IC50 values of 1–3 were 17.6–65.3 μM. There are no significant differences in the cytotoxicity capacities between Compounds 1, 2, and 3.
