摘要:
The deposition of a benefit agent on a substrate after treatment of the substrate with a personal care composition which has a viscosity of at least 50 mPa·s at 25° C. and comprises the benefit agent and a low molecular weight surfactant is improved when a water-soluble polymer is used as a substitute for at least a portion of the low molecular weight surfactant. The headspace concentration of a fragrance provided by such personal care composition is also increased.

A state-of-health monitoring and prognosis method and system for a battery includes a signal preprocessing module for monitoring battery terminal voltage and current and extracting a portion of the battery terminal voltage and current corresponding to an engine cranking event. Battery voltage loss that occurs during said engine cranking event is estimated from the extracted portion of battery terminal voltage and current by a voltage loss estimation module. The estimated battery voltage loss is compared with a predetermined voltage loss threshold to determine battery state-of-health by a state-of-health evaluation module.

摘要:
Recombinant or transgenic non-human mammals are described having a mutant tryptophan hydroxylase 2 (Tph2) gene resulting in altered synthesis of 5-hydroxytryptophan and serotonin in the brain. In some embodiments the mutant tryptophan hydroxylase 2 gene contains mouse R439H and/or P447R functional mutations, or their corresponding mutations in other species. Congenic non-human mammals having mutant tryptophan hydroxylase 2 genes are also provided. Methods of screening a compound for serotonergic activity or activity in treating a serotonergic neurotransmission dysregulation disorder are provided, which include administering a test compound to a recombinant non-human mammal and then detecting the presence or absence of serotonergic activity, or activity in treating a serotonergic neurotransmission dysregulation disorder, in the mammal. A cell such as a nerve cell (e.g., a central nervous system neuron) isolated from a transgenic or congenic mammal is also disclosed, along with cell cultures containing these cells. Such mammals and cells and cell cultures are useful in vitro for screening the activity of candidate compounds for their effect on serotonergic neurotransmission and for their activity in treating serotonergic neurotransmission dysregulation disorders.
摘要:
The present invention discloses a method for optimizing PCR amplification by adding elementary substance material into PCR system, wherein the elementary substance material is selected from a group consisting of element titanium, element nickel, element bismuth, element stibium, element selenium, element chromium, and a mixture of the group. This new method is more effective than conventional amplifying method and could be widely employed in many fronts, especially in multiplex PCR, two-round PCR, low-copy PCR, long-term PCR and rapid PCR.

摘要:
A daylight transmission system that can be used in buildings, the system including: dual-axis implementation device, CPU-controller, light position sensor and optical components that include moving and fixed optical components; with the moving optical components including optical light collector and the fixed optical components including first receiver and consecutive receivers. The invented system transmits sunlight in a form of parallel light after it is concentrated and therefore does not rely on expensive medium such as optic fibers, with the entire process being efficient in light transmission and economically viable. With the help of a tracking device, sunlight of any incident angle will be reflected in a fixed direction and to a fixed point where the light is reflected further on to the desired destination inside of a building. The invented system can be installed directly onto the external wall of any building, and be applied within a wide range of buildings.
