At present, the competition of China’s MBA education is becoming more and more intense. Strengthening the image-building of MBA education, importing CIS strategy into MBA education, improving the core competitiveness of MBA education, and building the brand of MBA education, should become an important strategic choice to the development of MBA education. From referencing the connotation of enterprise CIS, this paper describes the significance and procedures to import the CIS strategy into MBA education, proposes some proposals about establishing and implementing MBAIS strategy, and puts forward the specific case that Northeastern University imports MBAIS into MBA education.

Homochiral porous nanosheets for enantiomer sieving

Sun, Bo,Kim, Yongju,Wang, Yanqiu,Wang, Huaxin,Kim, Jehan,Liu, Xin,Lee, Myongsoo Nature Publishing Group UK 2018 NATURE MATERIALS Vol.17 No.7

<P>Protein pores are highly specific in binding to chiral substrates and in catalysing stereospecific reactions, because their active pockets are asymmetric and stereoselective(1,2). Chiral binding materials from molecular-level pores with high specificity have not been achieved because of problems with pore deformation and blocking(3). A promising solution is the self-assembly of single sheets where all pores are exposed to the environment, for example as metal-organic frameworks(4), polymers(5,6) or non-covalent aromatic networks(7-10), but, typically, the pores are distant from the internal cavities with chirality. Here, we report the synthesis of homochiral porous nanosheets achieved by the 2D self-assembly of non-chiral macrocycles, with open/closed pore switching. Pore chirality is spontaneously induced by a twisted stack of dimeric macrocycles. The porous 2D structures can serve as enantiomer sieving membranes that exclusively capture a single enantiomer in a racemic mixture solution, with uptake capacity greater than 96%. Moreover, the entrapped guests inside the pores can be pumped out by pore closing triggered by external stimuli. This strategy could provide new opportunities for controlled molecule release, as well as for artificial cells.</P>

Sun-Young Park,Bo-Xin Kang,홍종기,Quing-Li,Jungae Lee,김훈식 대한화학회 2009 Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society Vol.30 No.7

GC/MS analysis of catecholamines (CAs) in biological sample may produce poor reproducible quantitaion when chemical derivatization is used as the technique to form a volatile derivative. Significant quantities of the side products can be formed from CAs with primary amine during the derivatization reaction under un-optimized conditions. We have tested various chemical derivatization techniques in an attempt to find an optimum derivatization method that will reduce side product formation, enable to separate several catecholamine derivatives in GC chromatogram, and obtain significant improvement of detection sensitivity in GC/MS analysis. Whereas several derivatization techniques such as trimethylsilylation (TMS), trifluoroacylation (TFA), and two step derivatization methods were active, selective derivatization to form O-TMS, N-heptafluorobutylacyl (HFBA) derivative using N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl)-trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA) and N-methyl-bis(heptafluorobutyramide) (MBHFBA) reagents was found to be the most effective method. Moreover, this derivative formed by selective derivatization could provide sufficient sensitivity and peak separation as well as produce higher mass ion as base peak to use selected ion in SIM mode. Calibration curves based on the use of an isotopically labeled internal standard show good linearity over the range assayed, 1 ~ 5000 ng/mL, with correlation coefficients of > 0.996. The detection limits of the method ranged from 0.2 to 5.0 ppb for the different CAs studied. The developed method will be applied to the analysis of various CAs in biological sample, combined with appropriate sample pretreatment.

Molecular cloning and characterization of two novel DREB genes encoding dehydration-responsive element binding proteins in halophyte Suaeda salsa

Xiao-Bo Sun,Hong-Xiang Ma,Xin-Ping Jia,Yu Chen,Xiao-Qing Ye 한국유전학회 2015 Genes & Genomics Vol.37 No.2

The dehydration-responsive element-binding(DREB) proteins play an important role in regulatingexpression of stress-inducible genes under abiotic stresses. In this study, two genes encoding putative DREB proteins,named SsDREBa and SsDREBb, were cloned from halophyteSuaeda salsa L. using RACE method. The deducedSsDREBa and SsDREBb proteins contain a typical AP2/ERF domain. Multiple sequence alignments and phylogeneticanalysis revealed that the two SsDREB genes of S. salsa were highly similar in AP2/ERF domains at thenucleotide and amino acid levels and belong to the A-6subgroup of the DREB transcription factor subfamily. Asubcellular localization assay showed that both SsDREBslocalized to the nucleus. Yeast one-hybrid experimentstestified that both proteins were able to specifically bind tothe DRE sequence and activate the expression of the downstreamHIS reporter gene in yeast. Quantitative real-timePCR analysis demonstrated that under normal conditions,the expression level of SsDREBa was the most high in theroots and no SsDREBa mRNAs were detected in the stems;SsDREBb expressed at relatively higher levels in the leavesthan in the roots and stems. The expression of SsDREa andSsDREBb genes in S. salsa roots and leaves was remarkablyinduced by high-salt and dehydration treatments, butnot by cold and ABA, and exhibited stronger induction inroots and leaves, respectively. These results indicate thatthe SsDREBa and SsDREBb are novel stress-responsivetranscription factors, which are involved in the drought andhigh-salt stress responses through ABA-independent pathwaysand could be used for production of stress-toleranttransgenic crops.

Myogenic enhancer transcription factor 2c (MEF2c), one of the members of the MEF2 family of transcription factors, plays an important role in mammalian muscle development. However, the role of MEF2c in avian muscle development still remains unclear. To understand the function of MEF2c in avian muscle development, we first cloned the duck MEF2c coding domain sequence (CDS) and analyzed MEF2c expression in duck muscle tissues of embryos from 10 days of incubation to 1 week after birth using real-time PCR technology. The results showed that the duck MEF2c CDS consists of 1,398nucleotides that encode 465 amino acids. The MEF2c duck protein contains a MADS domain, a MEF2 domain and a HJURP_C domain with high homology to related proteins in other organisms. Different expression levels of MEF2c were found in skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscle. Therefore, these results indicated that duck MEF2c has two conserved domains (a MADS and a MEF2 domain), is an indispensable regulator of muscle development, and plays an important role in the development of duck muscle.

Numerical simulation of helicon waves current drive in the HL-2M tokamak for the steady-state scenario

Liu Hong Bo,Li Xin Xia,Xiao Zheng Yao,Zhang Ding Zong,Sun Ai Ping 한국물리학회 2021 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.79 No.12

The helicon wave heating and current drive in the HL-2M tokamak for the steady-state scenario is studied numerically. Based on the theory of fast wave current drive proposed by Chiu, we analyze the characteristics of helicon waves damping for the HL-2M tokamak. For wave frequencies larger than 420 MHz, strong wave damping occurs, and electron Landau damping is dominant. Moreover, a strong wave absorption region associated with the dimensionless parameters βe and ξe that depend on the wave frequency is obtained. The helicon wave propagation and current drive are simulated using the GENRAY/CQL3D code. The results show that an off-axis current drive with profiles peak at ρ ∼ 0.4 can be generally received at a wave frequency f ∼ 500 MHz and the launched parallel refractive index n∕∕ = 3.8 and that the current drive efficiency reaches up to ∼140 kA/MW. A scan of n∕∕ showed that both the current drive profile peak and the generated current could be adjusted by changing the launched n∕∕ . Finally, a feasible scheme for the helicon wave off-axis current drive in the HL-2M tokamak is proposed.

Helicon waves have been proposed for efcient of-axis current drive in high-performance tokamaks. The HL-2M tokamak will be operated with high plasma beta approaching to 훽N ∼ 4.0%, which provides a good platform to apply helicon wave system in the machine. Based on the helicon wave dispersion relation, efects of electron Landau damping and transit time magnetic pumping on wave absorption are analyzed according to the HL-2M plasma, and then, an optimized scheme of helicon wave parameter is proposed. The evolution of helicon wave electric feld and produced current drive are calculated by the AORSA full-wave code. It shows that current drive efciency of 100 kA/MW can be generally received in the machine. Moreover, the AORSA results are actively benchmarked with the ray-tracing code, and the results show a good consistency. Finally, the numerical convergence and the consumption of computation resources on grid point numbers in AORSA code are discussed.

Fabrication of Photopolymer Hierarchical Micronanostructures by Coupling Electrospinning and Photolithography for SERS Substrates

Wen-Yi Zhang,Xin-Ze Xiao,Chao Lv,Jia Zhao,Gong Wang,Xuan Gu,Ran Zhang,Bin-Bin Xu,Dan-Dan Zhang,Ai-Wu Li,Yong-Lai Zhang,Hong-Bo Sun 한국고분자학회 2013 Macromolecular Research Vol.21 No.3

Reported here is the fabrication of photopolymer hierarchical micronanostructures through a combinative process of electrospinning and subsequent photolithography. Electrospun SU-8 (epoxy-based negative photoresist)nanofiber films have been patterned into gratings with periods of 100, 200, 300, and 400 μm, respectively. Deposition of a silver nanolayer on these interlaced nanofiber films would lead to the formation of various plasmonic nanostructures,and therefore, giving rise to abundant surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) “hot spots”. In the detection of Rhodamine 6G (R6G), probing molecule, the resultant SERS substrates show both high sensitivity and good reproducibility. The SERS enhancement factor could reach as high as ~108, indicating high efficiency. The fabrication of patterned, highly efficient SERS substrates may hold a great promise for the integration of SERS substrates in various microdevices such as microfluidic chips.
