光响应性阳离子表面活性剂PCDA-C6-NH3+的合成及其对液滴蒸发行为的调控

农药的有效利用与农药液滴在植物叶片上的蒸发过程息息相关。传统表面活性剂虽然可以改变液滴的蒸发模式或速率,但并不能根据外界环境变化对蒸发过程进行主动调节。为实现"自主调控"农药液滴蒸发的目的,本文设计合成了一种含丁二炔官能团的光响应性阳离子表面活性剂(PCDA-C6-NH3+),利用紫外光刺激改变其在液滴中的聚集状态,调控液滴的蒸发过程。该表面活性剂以10,12-二十五碳二炔酸(PCDA)作为骨架,通过酰胺化反应引入末端氨基并质子化后得到。采用紫外-可见光谱研究了PCDA-C6-NH3+的拓扑化学聚合反应,并利用静态表面张力和动态接触角分析了其紫外光照前后的表面活性和蒸发行为。该研究为实现液滴"自主调控"蒸发过程提供了一种新思路,对提高农药利用率具有重要意义。

Topical Ganciclovir Reduces Viral Excretion in Mares With Equine Coital Exanthema

Equid alphaherpesvirus 3 (EHV-3) is the etiological agent of equine coital exanthema (ECE). Because no vaccines or antiviral therapies are available, prevention consists of clinical examination of mares and stallions before mating or semen collection and resting from breeding activities when lesions are present. However, this methodology does not identify subclinically infected animals. Ganciclovir is the most potent compound known to reduce EHV-3 replication. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of topical ganciclovir application to reduce EHV-3 replication in experimentally infected mares. A pilot study, after a double-blind completely randomized design, was carried out. Twenty mares were randomly divided into five groups (three treated with ganciclovir with different regimen of doses, one treated with a placebo, and one nontreated). Mares were experimentally infected with EHV-3 on day 0. Rectal temperature, clinical signs, and lesions were recorded. Daily perineal and vaginal swabs were evaluated by quantitative polymerase chain reaction for virus detection. The antibody response was assessed by a virus neutralization test in serum samples collected weekly. Mares experimentally infected with EHV-3 and treated with ganciclovir twice a day for 13 days showed reduced levels and duration of viral excretion and less severe lesions. The viral excretion period was reduced from 18 to nine days compared with the untreated groups. We concluded that ganciclovir had an antiviral effect on EHV-3 replication when topically administered in mares showing clinical signs of ECE. Further trials should be performed to optimize the dose of the antiviral for a definitive formulation.

基于改进蚁群算法的植保无人机路径规划方法

为了规划出更加高效的植保无人机路径，提出一种基于改进蚁群算法的植保无人机路径规划方法，该方法适用于多个具有复杂多边形边界与内部障碍物的三维作业区域。采用扫描方式生成水平面内的作业路径，经过离散化处理后，在三维地形曲面上插值，获得三维作业路径。在此基础上，建立作业路径生成算法，以三维作业路径总长度尽量短、作业路径数量尽量少为目标，对植保无人机作业航向进行寻优。改进蚁群算法通过附加记录作业路径进入点的机制，实现对三维作业路径的合理排序，生成总长度较短的转移路径。经过算例检验，针对同一作业区域规划出的三维作业路径与水平面内的作业路径的航向角存在较大差异，相差最大为92°，这说明考虑三维地形的必要性。算例中，将改进的蚁群算法与贪婪算法进行了对比，针对一系列相同的作业起点，改进的蚁群算法所得的转移路径总长度均较短，比贪婪算法所得结果缩短3%~28%；在未选定作业起点情况下，改进的蚁群算法与贪婪算法求得的转移路径总长度最小值分别为1661m与1763m，说明改进的蚁群算法具有良好的寻优能力。实例检验情况与算例所得结论基本一致。算例与实例中的作业区域边界与地形复杂，涵盖情况全面，表明本文提出的路径规划方法具有一定实用性。

Analysis of sinking death using video images of the swimming performance of Pacific Bluefin tuna (Thunnus orientalis) larvae

In this study, we aimed to clarify the mechanism of sinking death during the larval stage of Pacific Bluefin tuna Thunnus orientalis by investigating the effects of swimming performance on sinking death, using a behavioral approach. Swimming performance was examined 3–9 days after hatching (DAH) under day and night light conditions in cuboid experimental tanks. Swimming behavior variables such as swimming speed and swimming angle were measured under both light conditions. Larvae in the daytime experiment and larvae with inflated swim bladders at night were distributed on the surface layer of the water column. In contrast, larvae with uninflated swim bladders at night were frequently observed swimming vertically or sinking to the bottom of the tank. Larvae with inflated swim bladders at night were always distributed beneath the surface until the next morning (survival rates were 100 %). However, larvae with uninflated swim bladders at night swam upward repeatedly and later sank to the bottom of the tank (survival rates were 60 % and 38 % at 5 and 9 DAH, respectively). Larvae with uninflated swim bladders were not always able to maintain their swimming depth by swimming until the next morning. Additionally, their swimming speed and vertical swimming frequency (ratio) depended on the illumination and swim bladder conditions. Our findings show that larvae with uninflated swim bladders at night were associated with a higher risk of sinking death. The swimming energy capacity of Pacific Bluefin tuna larvae, which indicates the total amount of the energy that enables individuals to swim throughout the night without feeding, was found to be linked to sinking death.
