Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a transmissible respiratory disease that was initially reported in Wuhan, China in December 2019. With the alarming levels of COVID-19 spread worldwide, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. Over the past several months, chest CT has played a vital role in early identification, disease severity assessment, and dynamic disease course monitoring of COVID-19. The published data has enriched our knowledge on the etiology, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and pathologic findings of COVID-19. Additionally, as the imaging spectrum of the disease continues to be defined, extrapulmonary infections or other complications will require further attention. This review aims to provide an updated framework and essential knowledge with which radiologists can better understand COVID-19.

Synthesis of hexagonal boron nitride thin film on Pt substrates for resistive switching memory applications

Jiang Yue,Huang Yong,Zhang Shengli 한국물리학회 2022 Current Applied Physics Vol.44 No.-

Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), due to its high reliability as a two-dimensional (2D) dielectric material, has attracted much attention for its potential applications in nanoelectronic devices. Here, the use of radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering-grown hBN films to construct hBN-based resistive switching (RS) memory device is reported, and the RS mechanism is deduced. The hBN-based RS memory shows low operating voltage, reproducible write cycles, and long retention time. First-principles simulations further confirm the resistive switching. This work provides an important case to facilitate the future applications of 2D materials in the RS memory.

Trichoderma spp. are widely applied, eco-friendly mycofungicides and plant growth promoters. Native Trichoderma strainsare likely to have more productive, stable biocontrol and biofertilizer activities since they are well adapted to the local environment. In this study, we isolated a native Trichoderma strain ‘Th62’ from the rhizosphere soil of wild Chelidonium majusplants in Harbin, China (126.6341°E, 45.7242°N). The isolated Trichoderma strain was identifi ed as a T. harzianum strainvia morphological observation and molecular methods based on the rDNA internal transcribed spacer region and elongationfactor-1α gene sequences. Signifi cant antagonistic activities of Th62 against fi ve soil-borne fungal phytopathogens,Fusarium oxysporum , Sclerotinia sclerotiorum , Alternaria alternata , Cytospora chrysosperma, and Rhizoctonia solani ,were confi rmed by dual-culture assays. Furthermore, the crude fermentation products of Th62 also displayed antifungalactivities against these fi ve pathogens. To evaluate the function of Th62 as a biofertilizer, we subsequently applied Th62on cockscomb ( Celosia cristata L), a plant species with both ornamental and medicinal values, by inoculation with Th62conidia at diff erent concentrations, 1 × 10 10 cfu mL −1 , 1 × 10 11 cfu mL −1 , and 1 × 10 12 cfu mL −1 . The benefi cial eff ects ofTh62 were evaluated by measuring the growth and photosynthetic traits of the inoculated cockscomb plants, and the resultsdemonstrated that Th62 signifi cantly improved the photosynthetic effi ciency, photosynthetic capacity, and the adaptabilityto intense light of the inoculated cockscomb plants compared to the controls. Consistently, Th62 inoculation signifi cantlyimproved the growth and fl ower yield of cockscomb. We presented a positive case of isolating and applying native microbialresources on local plantation practices.

Jiang Lingmin,Choe Hanna,Peng Yuxin,Jeon Doeun,Cho Donghyun,Jiang Yue,Lee Ju Huck,Kim Cha Young,Lee Jiyoung 한국미생물·생명공학회 2023 Journal of microbiology and biotechnology Vol.33 No.10

PAMB 00755T , a bacterial strain, was isolated from Korean fir leaves. The strain exhibits yellow colonies and consists of Gram-negative, non-motile, short rods or ovoid-shaped cells. It displays optimal growth conditions at 20°C, 0% NaCl, and pH 6.0. Results of 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic analyses showed that strain PAMB 00755T was most closely related to Sphingomonas chungangi MAH-6T (97.7%) and Sphingomonas polyaromaticivorans B2-7T (97.4%), and ≤96.5% sequence similarity to other members of the genus Sphingomonas. The values of average nucleotide identity (79.9–81.3%), average amino acid identity (73.3–75.9%), and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (73.3– 75.9%) were significantly lower than the threshold values for species boundaries; these overall genome-related indexes (OGRI) analyses indicated that the strain represents a novel species. Genomic analysis revealed that the strain has a 4.4-Mbp genome encoding 4,083 functional genes, while the DNA G+C content of the whole genome is 66.1%. The genome of strain PAMB 00755T showed a putative carotenoid biosynthetic cluster responsible for its antioxidant activity. The respiratory quinone was identified as ubiquinone 10 (Q-10), while the major fatty acids in the profile were identified as C18:1ω7c and/or C18:1ω6c (summed feature 8). The major polar lipids of strain PAMB 00755T were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingoglycolipid, and phosphatidylcholine. Based on a comprehensive analysis of genomic, phenotypic, and chemotaxonomic characteristics, we proposed the name Sphingomonas abietis sp. nov. for this novel species, with PAMB 00755T as the type strain (= KCTC 92781T = GDMCC 1.3779T ).

中國司法體制改革試點論略

( Ji Yue Jiang ) 제주대학교 법과정책연구소 2014 국제법무 Vol.6 No.2

The reform of China`s judicial system has been almost simultaneous with that of the reform of China`s economic structure. However, in contrast to the reform of China`s economic structure, which has essentially been changing constantly in the last three decades, the reform of China`s judicial system has only been narrow within the reform of judgment mode. Recently, after summarizing and reviewing previous conducted reforms, schemes and objectives, reforms to further develop the judicial system were proposed in China`s 18th Communist Party Congress. Additionally, the reform pilots are specifically confined. The proposed schemes concerns four aspects: first, improved management of the various of Judicial Officers; second their explicit legal obligations; then guarantee Judicial Officers` career security; finally, centralization of the administration of personnel. assets and other related items of local judicial entities which are below the provincial government level. This paper is motivated to analyze the conjecture implied by the reform of China`s judicial system. Further, the developing trends are investigated. It is argued that it is time to response to the long-term but inevitable important theoretical and cognitional issues, including the relation between the power of party and the; priority of law and leadership of the party. This study insists that, to achieve substantive reformation, which are dominated by the rule of law, and establish and independence, the essential thing is to pay attention to law, advocate law and authorize supremacy to law.

Effect of Supplemental Selenomethionine on Growth Performance and Serum Antioxidant Status in Taihang Black Goats

Yue, Wenbin,Zhang, Chunxiang,Shi, Liguang,Ren, Youshe,Jiang, Yusuo,Kleemann, D.O. Asian Australasian Association of Animal Productio 2009 Animal Bioscience Vol.22 No.3

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different levels of supplemental selenomethionine (Se-Met) on growth performance and serum antioxidant status in Taihang Black goats. Fifty 16-week-old goats with an average body weight of 12.5${\pm}$0.5 kg were randomly assigned to five treatments fed a basal diet (0.049 mg Se/kg DM) supplemented with 0 (control), 0.10, 0.30, 0.50 and 1.00 mg of Se/kg DM (form Se-Met) for 80 days. Average daily gain and feed efficiency were higher (p<0.05) in the groups supplemented with 0.30 to 0.50 mg Se/kg DM compared with the control group. However, Se-Met supplementation had no influence on average daily feed intake (p>0.05). Se-Met supplementation significantly increased (p<0.01) the activity of glutathione peroxidase enzymes (GSH-Px) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum. The group supplemented with 0.50 mg Se/kg DM had the highest activity of GSH-Px compared with other groups (p<0.05). Serum SOD activity was higher (p<0.05) in goats supplemented with both 0.30 and 0.50 mg Se/kg DM than in control goats and goats supplemented with 1.00 mg Se/kg DM. Serum glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration were significantly decreased (p<0.05) in goats supplemented with 0.30, 0.50 and 1.00 mg Se/kg DM compared with control values. These results indicated that Se-Met supplementation markedly improved the antioxidant status in goats. Blood Se concentration increased linearly (p<0.001) and quadratically (p<0.001) as the level of supplemental Se-Met increased. The concentration of Se in the control diet (0.049 mg Se/kg DM) did not satisfy the Se requirement in goats as indicated by reduced growth rate, feed efficiency, activities of GSH-Px and SOD in serum, and blood Se concentrations. In conclusion, it is recommended that 0.30 to 0.50 mg of Se/kg DM from Se-Met (total diet Se of 0.349 to 0.549 mg/kg DM) be supplied in the diet of Taihang Black goats to enhance growth performance and improve antioxidant status.

Luminescence and photoconductivity properties of porous polycrystalline silicon

Yue Zhao,Dong-sheng Li,Jie Zhao,Wen-bin Sang,De-ren Yang,Min-hua Jiang 한국물리학회 2008 Current Applied Physics Vol.8 No.2

In recent years, the photoluminescence and the photoconductivity of porous silicon were comprehensively studied. But the photoluminescence and the photoconductivity of porous polycrystalline silicon have not been wholely studied. In this paper, the results showed that luminescent property of the samples prepared by poly-crystal silicon wafers may be related to the defects on Si complexes surface, which can be proved by microwave-detected photoconductivity decay measurements. Furthermore, the luminescence of samples was disappeared under the external illumination, which may be related to the elimination of luminescent-centers. In addition, the conductivities of the samples were dependent on etched time and current density, and the large porosity of samples led to isotropic photoconductivity, which may be related to the change of energy band structure of the devices.
