Feeding State-Dependent Modulation of Feeding-Related Engine Designs.
To investigate the genetic polymorphisms of 59 Y-chromosomal short tandem repeat (Y-STR) loci in the Yulin Han population, 229 unrelated healthy male individuals were analyzed using AGCU Y37 kit and AGCU Y-SUPP Plus kit. A total of 227 different haplotypes were obtained at the 59 Y-STR loci. Among them, 225 haplotypes were unique and 2 haplotypes occurred twice. The overall haplotypic diversity and discrimination capacity were 0.9999 and 0.9913, respectively. The phylogenetic relationships between the studied Yulin Han population and 17 previously reported reference populations were evaluated via multidimensional scaling and Neighbor-Joining analyses based on the haplotypic frequencies of 'YHRD Maximal Loci'. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Yulin Han population was closely related to Chinese Han and Hunan Yao populations. These results demonstrated that the 59 Y-STR loci were useful for forensic applications and population genetic studies.Reef ecosystems are under increasing pressure from global and local stressors. Rising seawater temperature and high ultraviolet radiation (UVR) levels are the main drivers of the disruption of the coral-dinoflagellate symbiosis (bleaching). Bleaching can also be exacerbated by nitrate contamination in coastal reefs. However, the underlying physiological mechanisms are still poorly understood. Here, we assessed the physiological and oxidative state of the scleractinian coral Pocillopora damicornis, maintained eight weeks in a crossed-factorial design including two temperatures (26 °C or 30 °C), and two nitrate (0.5 and 3 μM-enriched), and UVR (no UVR and 25/1.5 Wm-2 UVA/B) levels. Nitrate enrichment, and high temperature, significantly impaired coral photosynthesis. However, UVR alleviated the nitrate and temperature-induced decrease in photosynthesis, by increasing the coral's antioxidant capacity. The present study contributes to our understanding of the combined effects of abiotic stressors on coral bleaching susceptibility. Such information is urgently needed to refine reef management strategies.The hydrothermal products of the Clam hydrothermal field from the Okinawa Trough were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry to determine abundances of hydrocarbons. The n-alkanes in the hydrothermal products conformed to a bimodal distribution and exhibited an odd-to-even predominance of high molecular weight and an even-to-odd predominance of low molecular weight n-alkanes with maxima at C16 and C18. The total concentration of n-alkanes in hydrothermal sediment was much higher than that in hydrothermal sulfide and altered rock. The carbon isotopic value of individual n-alkanes in hydrothermal sediment was slightly higher than that in pelagic sediment. The concentrations and individual carbon isotopic compositions of n-alkanes suggest that the n-alkanes in hydrothermal products may be mainly the result of the metabolic activity of submarine microorganisms. Additionally, the present results suggest that the abiogenic contribution to source of hydrocarbons in hydrothermal products of the Clam hydrothermal field from the Okinawa Trough should not be ignored.
The aggregation of protein-stabilised emulsions leads to the formation of emulsion gels. These soft solids may be envisioned as droplet-filled matrices. Here however, it is assumed that protein-coated sub-micron droplets contribute to the network formation in a similar way to proteins. Emulsion gels are thus envisioned as composite networks made of proteins and droplets.

Emulsion gels with a wide range of composition are prepared and their viscoelasticity and frequency dependence are measured. Their rheological behaviours are then analysed and compared with the properties of pure gels presented in the first part of this study.

When the concentrations of droplets and protein are expressed as an effective volume fraction, the rheological behaviour of emulsion gels is shown to depend mostly on the total volume fraction, while the composition of the gel indicates its level of similarity with either pure droplet gels or pure protein gels. These results help to form an emerging picture of protein-stabilised emulsion gel as intermediate between droplet and protein gels. This justifies a posteriori the hypothesis of composite networks, and opens the road for the formulation of emulsion gels with fine-tuned rheology.

Asphaltenes can form rigid interfacial films surrounding water droplets rendering water separation from crude oil sluggish. Therefore, the quantitative characterization of such complex film formation is of great importance. As the adsorbed layers of asphaltene illustrate crumpling under compression at certain conditions, the evolution process from soft to rigid states of the film can be evaluated considering standard deviations from Young-Laplace shape fitting.

In this study, novel experimental protocols are introduced to investigate the evolution of adsorbed asphaltene layer to a film of aggregates at model oil/water interface by means of dynamic interfacial tension (IFT) and dilational surface rheology measurements. In particular, the surface elasticity and standard deviation from the Young-Laplace shape fitting (YL-SD) are introduced as important indicators for the transformation of a regular asphaltene adsorbed layer to a film of aggregates. Different parameters affecting the film formation and stabil parameter to reveal the properties of the interfacial asphaltene film, which cannot be recognized by regular IFT measurements. Via this novel technique, it is revealed that the transformation of an asphaltene adsorbed layer to a rigid film depends not only on the asphaltene concentration but also on the aging time and the interfacial area perturbations. The results of this new method are supported by measurements of the dilational surface elasticity, which is known as an important parameter for the characterization of complex adsorbed layers, and further verified by an emulsion stability analysis.
