The mechanical properties of refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) are influenced by the types and concentrations of the constituent elements and significantly influenced by the precipitation behavior. In this study, the Al20Nb14Ti34Zr29Cr4 RHEA was designed to investigate the impact of precipitation on its microstructure and properties. The density of the alloy was only 5.53 g/cm3. Significant amounts of the Al3Zr5 phase and C14 Laves phase precipitated following prolonged annealing treatment. The evolution of the microstructure of the alloy was investigated through multi-directional forging at temperatures of 1000 degrees C and 1200 degrees C. High-temperature forging causes the dissolution of the Al3Zr5 phase, and greater dissolution occurs at elevated temperatures. Additionally, during high-temperature forging, dissolution and subsequent reprecipitation of the C14 Laves phase occur. Lower forging temperatures promote increased reprecipitation of the C14 Laves phase. The alloy forged at 1000 degrees C exhibited an exceptional yield strength of 1870.1 MPa, accompanied by a specific yield strength of 338.2 N center dot m/kg and a compressive limit deformation of 20.9 %. This remarkable performance can be attributed to the changes in the shape size and distribution of the precipitated phase during the forging process at 1000 degrees C, as well as the grain refinement caused by recrystallization. These factors work together to improve the strength and plasticity of the alloy.
Benefiting from the visible light emission behavior of the Sm3+ activator, Sm3+-incorporated inorganic phosphors have received considerable interest in solid-state lighting areas. Nevertheless, so far, highly efficient and heat-resistant optical materials activated with Sm3+ are scarce. In this work, a series of new orange-red-emitting phosphors K2SrP4O12 (KSPO):Sm3+,A+ (A+ = Li, Na, and K) were prepared by charge compensation strategy. Under 405 nm excitation, the phosphors exhibit strong orange-red emission. The incorporation of alkali metals A+ effectively compensates for the vacancy defects caused by the non-equivalent substitution of Sm3+ for Sr2+, improving the luminescent performance. In particular, the Na+-compensated phosphor exhibits a luminescence intensity 1.92 times greater than that of the uncompensated sample due to the fact that Na+ and Sr2+ have close ionic radii. It has demonstrated excellent internal quantum efficiency (37.1 %), high color purity (98.5 %), and high thermostability (94 %@423 K), significantly surpassing the majority of reported Sm3+-doped phosphors. In addition, a representative KSPO:0.03Sm3+,0.03Na+ phosphor is used to prepare W-LEDs, showing potential for solid-state lighting.
The family Potamanthidae is widely distributed across the Holarctic and Oriental regions, with nymphs often utilized as bioindicators for water pollution and human-induced environmental disturbances. However, limited mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) have been reported for this family. This study presents the first complete mitochondrial genome sequences of two Potamanthidae species, Potamanthus longitibius and Rhoenanthus youi. The mitogenome sizes were 15,430 bp and 15,232 bp, with A + T contents of 68.79% and 66.75%, respectively. The most abundant amino acids were phenylalanine (Phe), isoleucine (Ile), glycine (Gly), and alanine (Ala), with leucine (Leu2) showing the highest relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) value. The analysis of tRNA secondary structures revealed high conservation among the tRNAs encoded on the H-strand. Phylogenetic reconstruction, incorporating 40 species from 13 families of Ephemeroptera, confirmed the monophyly of all the families and supported a sister group relationship between Potamanthidae and Ephemeridae. Additionally, the sequence previously identified as Rhoenanthus sp. JZ-2021 was reassigned to the genus Potamanthus. This study provides valuable insights into the evolutionary relationships within Potamanthidae and lays a foundation for future phylogenetic and taxonomic research.
Thymidine, as a crucial precursor of anti-AIDS drugs (e.g., zidovudine and stavudine), has wide application potential in the pharmaceutical industry. In this study, we introduced the thymidine biosynthesis pathway into the wild-type Escherichia coli MG1655 by systems metabolic engineering to improve the thymidine production in E. coli. Firstly, deoA, tdk, udp, rihA, rihB, and rihC were successively deleted to block the thymidine degradation pathway and salvage pathway in the wild-type E. coli MG1655. Then, the pyrimidine nucleoside operons from Bacillus subtilis F126 were introduced to enlarge the metabolic flux of the uridylic acid synthesis pathway. Finally, the expression of uridylate kinase, ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase, thymidine synthase, and 5'-nucleotidase in the thymidine biosynthesis pathway was optimized to enhance the metabolic flux from uridylic acid to thymidine. The engineered THY6-2 strain produced 11.10 g/L thymidine in a 5 L bioreactor with a yield of 0.04 g/g glucose and productivity of 0.23 g/(L·h). In this study, we constructed a strain that used glucose as the only carbon source for efficient production of thymidine and did not harbor plasmids, which provided a reference for the research on other pyrimidine nucleosides.

The production phenotype improvement of industrial microbes is extremely needed and challenging. Environ-mental factors optimization provides insightful ideas to trigger the superior production phenotype by activating potential genetic determiners. Here, phenotype-genotype mapping was used to dissect the betaine-triggered L-arginine overproduction mechanism and mine beneficial genes for further improving production phenotype. The comparative transcriptomic analysis revealed a novel role for betaine in modulating global gene transcription. Guided by this finding, 4 novel genes (cynX, cynT, pyrB, and rhaB) for L-arginine biosynthesis were identified via reverse engineering. Moreover, the rhaB deletion was demonstrated as a common metabolic engineering strategy to improve ATP pool in E. coli. By combinatorial genes manipulation, the L-arginine titer and yield increased by 17.9% and 28.9% in a 5-L bioreactor without betaine addition. This study revealed the molecular mechanism of gene transcription regulation by betaine and developed a superior L-arginine overproducer that does not require betaine.

出口信用险是出口国政府为外贸企业提供的由于进口国政治风险(包括战争、外汇管制、进口管制和延期付款等)和进口商商业风险(例如破产、拖欠和拒收等)导致收汇损失的政策性险种.如果卖家因为上述原因不能如期收款,可以由保险公司先行赔付,至于保险公司如何向买家追偿以及能否追回货款,与出口商无关.在我国承担这一重要政策性扶持角色的是中国出口信用保险公司(简称中信保).也正因为出口信用险保障的是卖方利益,所以有些不法分子就利用中信保的资信对出口商巧妙设局,实施真实的业务诈骗,这对我国出口商提出了非常有价值的警示和针对性的思考.
Based on the energy consumption data of the logistics industry in 30 provinces and cities in China, this paper uses the carbon emission accounting method of IPCC to estimate the total carbon emissions of the logistics industry in China from 2010 to 2019, and introduces the carbon emission Theil index. The Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) model is used to measure the regional differences in carbon emissions of China's logistics industry and decompose the influencing factors. The research results show that the total carbon emissions of China's logistics industry have increased significantly, and the total carbon emissions and growth rates of the eastern region are significantly higher than those of the central and western regions. On the whole, the inter-provincial differences in carbon emissions of China's logistics industry have not changed substantially and have shown a downward trend. Intra-regional differences are the main reason for the overall difference in carbon emissions in China's logistics industry, and inter-regional differences have little impact on the overall difference. Among the three major regions, the eastern region has the largest inter-provincial carbon emissions difference, followed closely by the central region, with the western region having the smallest difference. Furthermore, the difference in carbon emissions between the eastern, central, and western regions is expanding, the results of the LMDI model show that the economic development effect is the most important positive effect of the logistics industry's carbon emissions in terms of the national average. The population scale effect is second, and the energy intensity effect is the main negative effect, followed by the energy structure effect. In terms of regional differences, the energy intensity effect is the most obvious in the eastern region, and the population scale effect has a relatively greater impact on the western region. The effect of economic development on the eastern and western regions is higher than in the central region.
Large intergenic spacers and tRNA gene duplications have been reported in several insect groups, although little is known about mitogenomes of mayflies. Here, we determined complete mitogenomes of ten heptageniid species and systemically analyzed their mitogenomic features. Both a conserved intergenic spacer (IGS) and trnM duplication were detected in those mitogenomes. The IGS, which was observed in heptageniids, could be further folded into a stable stem–loop structure. The tRNA gene duplication was found in almost all analyzed mitogenomes, and a unique gene block trnI-trnM-trnQ-trnM-ND2 was also discovered. Our analysis demonstrates that the heptageniid gene arrangement pattern can be explained by the tandem duplication-random loss (TDRL) model. Phylogenetic analyses using both Bayesian inference (BI) and maximum likelihood (ML) methods based on the nucleotide and amino acid sequence data recovered the genus Epeorus as monophyletic with strong support. Our results provide a better understanding of mitogenomic evolution in Heptageniidae, as well as novel molecular markers for species identification of mayflies.

The most common start codon is ATN (ATA, ATG, and ATT), and the most common termination codon is TAA. In addition, three PCGs have incomplete termination codon T. The overall nucleotide composition is 38.0% of A, 7.8% of G, 42.4% of T, and 11.8% of C. The data will increase the basic information of Satyrinae phylogenetic research and can help to better understand the phylogenetic status ofL. confusein Nymphalidae.
The recent hype in online purchasing has skyrocketed the importance of the electronic commerce (e-commerce) industry. One of the core segments of this industry is business-to-consumer (B2C) where businesses use their websites to sell products and services directly to consumers. Thus, it must be taken care of that B2C websites are designed in a way which can build a trustworthy and long-term relationship between businesses and consumers. Thus, this study assesses and prioritizes factors for designing a successful B2C e-commerce website. The study employs multi-criteria decision making (MCDM), and to minimize any ambiguity and greyness in the decision-making, it integrates fuzzy and grey respectively with the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to form FAHP and TOPSIS-Grey. Initially, the study conducts a thorough literature survey to screen important factors reported in past studies. Five main factors and nineteen sub-factors were selected for further prioritization. Later, FAHP prioritized factors based on their importance. Finally, based on the FAHP results, TOPSIS-Grey ranked five alternatives (e-commerce websites). FAHP revealed “service quality” as the most successful website designing factor, while TOPSIS-Grey reported “Website-3” as the most successful website, having incorporated the factors required to design a successful website.
