Fusarium oxysporum & Fusarium solani: Identification, Characterization, and Differentiation the Fungal Phenolic Profiles by HPLC and the Fungal Lipid Profiles by GC-MS by Nashwa M. Shalapy, Wenyi Kang

“…Moreover, lipid criteria of Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani extracts had been displayed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and their fatty acids had been identified to define the prolific species of the most biological and valuable fatty acids. In discrimination between phenols and flavonoids of Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani as natural biological constituents analyzed by HPLC, the methanolic extracts of Fusarium species revealed that phenols level was elevated in F. oxysporum than its level in F. solani as well flavonoids level was advanced in F. oxysporum compared to F. solani. …”

Analysis of Water Surface Ratio Evolution in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Based on Landsat by JIANG Xintong, LIAO Xiaolong, QUAN Xujian, XUE Jiao, ZHONG Yixuan, YU Baishun

“…An appropriate urban water surface ratio plays a vital role in improving the ecological quality of urban areas and the quality of urban living space.By RS and GIS technology,the research takes the free and open source optical remote sensing data,Landsat images,as the data source and uses the normalized difference water index (NDWI) and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) to construct an automatic water body discrimination model.In this way,we can analyze the evolution of the water surface ratio in the core cities of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (Greater Bay Area) in the past two decades.The result analysis reveals that in the past 20 years,the water area of the Greater Bay Area has been decreased by 136 km²,and the water surface ratio is reduced from 4.48% to 4.22%.Among the cities in the Greater Bay Area,the city with the largest reduction in the water area is Jiangmen,with a decline of 44.20 km²,and its water surface ratio falls from 6.10% to 5.62%.Foshan follows Jiangmen,with a water area decrease of 32.34 km²,and its water surface ratio drops from 13.17% to 12.32%.The water area in Macao,Hong Kong,Huizhou,and Zhaoqing demonstrates a fall of not more than 10 km²,and that in Guangzhou and Shenzhen is reduced by not more than 20 km².By the transition matrix analysis of land use types in the Greater Bay Area,we can uncover the main reason for the decline in water area—that is,the increase in construction land invading the original water area.The result of this paper can provide theoretical and methodological support for the rational use of water resources and the construction of water ecology in the cities of the Greater Bay Area.Meanwhile,it can offer an important reference for promoting the construction of ecological civilization and strengthening environmental protection in the Greater Bay Area.…”

Pregnancy-Associated Glycoprotein Level in Early Pregnancy Detection with Prediction of Fetal Number and Gender in Iraqi Local Ewes by Mohammed AO Al-Rawi, Souhayla O Hussain ‎

“…The result of PAG level (ng/ml) during estrus has shown insignificant difference between G1(CIDR group), G2(vaginal sponge group) and G3 (control group), while at day 18, 30, 60 and 120 of pregnancy was significantly (p˂0.05) higher in G1 and G2, in comparison with G3. The discrimination value (cutoff point) for detection of pregnancy by PAG test was ˃ 0.915 ng/ ml (using ROC Curve) and based on breeding data from day 18 PAG values were detectable in all pregnant ewes. …”
