Optimiranje podloge za uzgoj i sastava aminokiselina u miceliju gljive Pleurotus cornucopiae SD-01 obogaćenog kromom

Chromium(III) is an essential trace element for humans and animals. Pleutorus cornucopiae SD-01 is a nutritional and functional mushroom containing many kinds of bioactive ingredients. The aims of this work are to optimize the conditions of P. cornucopiae SD-01 cultivation with Cr enrichment in submerged culture by determining the dry cell mass, Cr content in mycelia and the rate of Cr enrichment, and to analyze the amino acid composition of Cr-enriched mycelia. The optimal medium contained (in g/L): potato 200, sucrose 25, yeast extract 4, KH2PO4 1 and MgSO4·7H2O 1. The optimum parameters of liquid culture were temperature 25 °C, cultivation time 6 days, the volume of the medium 100 mL, rotation speed 160 rpm and initial pH=6.5. Under the optimized conditions, the values of the dry cell mass, Cr content in mycelia and the rate of Cr enrichment were (6.63±0.35) g/L, (3670±211) μg/g and (12.15±1.01) % respectively, which were by (23.23±1.22), (18.19±1.06) and (45.68±2.67) % respectively, higher than those in the control. Chromium(III) in Cr-enriched mycelia was mainly combined with protein and polysaccharide. The contents of total amino acids and essential amino acids in Cr-enriched mycelia were increased by (31.25±0.58) and (44.26±0.76) %, respectively.Trovalentni je krom esencijalni element u tragovima, potreban za rast ljudi i životinja. Pleurotus cornucopiae SD-01 hranjiva je gljiva funkcionalnih svojstava, koja sadrži mnoge bioaktivne komponente. Svrha je ovoga rada bila optimirati uvjete uzgoja P. cornucopiae SD-01 u podlozi obogaćenoj kromom, i to određivanjem suhe stanične mase, udjela kroma u miceliju i stupnja obogaćivanja micelija, te analizirati aminokiselinski sastav micelija obogaćenog kromom. Optimalni sastav podloge bio je (u g/L): krumpir 200, saharoza 25, kvaščev ekstrakt 4, KH2PO4 1 i MgSO4·7H2O 1. Utvrđeni su optimalni parametri rasta: temperatura 25 °C, vrijeme uzgoja 6 dana, volumen podloge 100 mL, brzina rotacije 160 rpm i početni pH=6,5. U tim su uvjetima dobivene sljedeće vrijednosti: suha stanična masa od (6,63±0,35) g/L, veća za (23,23±1,22) %; udio kroma u miceliju od (3670±211) mg/g, veći za (18,19±1,06) % i stupanj obogaćivanja micelija kromom od (12,15±1,01) %, što je za (45,68±2,67) % više nego u kontrolnom uzorku. Utvrđeno je da se trovalentni krom u miceliju uglavnom veže za proteine i ugljikohidrate. Ukupni se udio aminokiselina u takvom obogaćenom miceliju povećao za (31,25±0,58) %, a udio esencijalnih aminokiselina za (44,26±0,76) %

Quantum network teleportation for quantum information distribution and concentration

We investigate the schemes of quantum network teleportation for quantum information distribution and concentration which are essential in quantum cloud computation and quantum internet. In those schemes, the cloud can send simultaneously identical unknown quantum states to clients located in different places by a network like teleportation with a prior shared multipartite entangled state resource. The cloud first perform the quantum operation, each client can recover their quantum state locally by using the classical information announced by the cloud about the measurement result. The number of clients can be beyond the number of identical quantum states intentionally being sent, this quantum network teleportation can make sure that the retrieved quantum state is optimal. Furthermore, we present a scheme to realize its reverse process, which concentrates the states from the clients to reconstruct the original state of the cloud. These schemes facilitate the quantum information distribution and concentration in quantum networks in the framework of quantum cloud computation. Potential applications in time synchronization are discussed.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figur

Detection and diagnosis of paralysis agitans

Humans’ daily behavior can reflect the main physiological characteristics of neurological diseases. Human gait is a complex behavior produced by the coordination of multiple physiological systems such as the nervous system and the muscular system. It can reflect the physiological state of human health, and its abnormality is an important basis for diagnosing some nervous system diseases. However, many early gait anomalies have not been effectively discovered because of medical costs and people's living customs. This paper proposes an effective, economical, and accurate non-contact cognitive diagnosis system to help early detection and diagnosis of paralysis agitans under daily life conditions. The proposed system extract data from wireless state information obtained from antenna-based data gathering module. Further, we implement data processing and gait classification systems to detect abnormal gait based on the acquired wireless data. In the experiment, the proposed system can detect the state of human gait and carries high classification accuracy up to 96.7 %. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed technique is feasible and cost-effective for healthcare applications

Maternal expectations of fetal gender and risk of postpartum depression

Background: Female offspring was associated with a high risk of postpartum depression (PPD) during the one-child policy period in China. However, little is known about the association between maternal expectations on fetal gender and the risk of PPD in the context of the new two children policy implemented in 2016. Methods: We conducted a hospital-based cohort study of women with singleton pregnancies between 2017 and 2018 (n = 991) to address this concern. Logistic regression was run to estimate the association between unexpected fetal gender and the risk of PPD. Results: A total of 127 women (12.8%) were diagnosed with PPD. Compared with women who achieved fetal gender expectations, the odds ratio (OR) for PPD among those who had an unexpected fetal gender was 2.44 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.30–4.58) (in the backward method logistic regression model) and 2.25 (95% CI: 1.21–4.18) (in the forward method model), respectively. The disparity of the association was significant among primiparous and pluriparous women (OR, 2.52, 95% CI: 1.32–4.84, P = 0.005 vs. OR, 0.91, 95% CI: 0.09–8.75, P = 0.932). Fetal gender expectations accounted for about 15% of the risk of PPD in the structural equation models. Conclusions: These results indicated that unexpected fetal gender was associated with an increased risk of PPD among Chinese primiparous women
