ABSTRACT A new species, Spilomena capatrata Bashir & Ma, sp. nov. is described from Palearctic and Oriental China. Additionally, eleven species are reported, of which five are new records from China: S. beata Blüthgen, S. hainesi N. Smith, S. menkei R. Bohart, S. punctatissima Blüthgen, and S. valkeilai Vikberg. A key to Chinese species of Spilomena Shuckard is also provided.
Droplet atomization characteristics and its morphology in twin-wire arc sprayed (TWAS) Ni-Al were explored in depth. Both numerical model and theoretical method were built for calculating the process of the droplet deformation and breakup in air flow, which based on the standard k-ε model and the volume of fluid (VOF) dual-phase flow model. The atomization characteristics of double droplets and three droplets w...
Droplets deformation and solidification characteristics in twin-wire arc sprayed Ni-Al were explored in depth. Both theoretical method and numerical model were established for calculating the deformation process of the droplets impacting on the substrate and their solidification behavior in airflow, which based on two models of the volume of fluid (VOF) dual-phase flow and the standard k-ε. The morphology and t...
The reaction mechanism of AgIII complex ([Ag(HIO6)2]5–) with ruthenium(II) bipyridine (Ru(bpy)32+) in acid medium was investigated. A novel flow injection chemiluminescence (CL) analysis method was developed for the detection of norfloxacin (NFLX) and ofloxacin (OFLX) in commercial drug, milk and human urine samples based on AgIII-ruthenium(II) bipyridine in acidic solution. Under optimal conditions, CL intensi...
Abstract Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and mechanisms of root tuber of Polygonum ciliinerve (Nakai) ohwi (rPC) which has been used to treat bacterial infection in traditional Chinese medicine. Methods: With the mouse model of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) pneumonia, the phenotype of rPC treated mice, including body weight, mortality, lung slices and bacterial burden were evaluated. Furthermore, infla...
A simple and sensitive method based on flow-injection chemiluminescence analysis coupled with luminol-Ag(III) complex was developed for the determination of uric acid (UA) in human urine. The method was based on the chemiluminescence (CL) reaction of luminol with Ag(III) in alkaline solution. UA in the urine can dramatically enhance CL intensities. In optimum conditions, the relative CL intensity had a linear r...
A novel sensitive chemiluminescence (CL) system ([Ag(HIO6)2]5--luminol reaction system), coupled with a flow injection, is introduced for determination of d-penicillamine. The system is based on the enhancement effect of chemiluminescence reaction by penicillamine in alkaline medium. Under the optimum conditions, the CL intensity is proportional to the concentrations of d-penicillamine with a good linearity. Th...
In this note, we consider self-similar immersions of the mean curvature flow and show that a graph solution of the soliton equation, provided it has bounded derivative, converges smoothly to a function which has some special properties (see Theorem 1.1).
