Screening, identification and fermentation conditions optimization of agricultural antibiotic-producing bacteria by QIN Baoshan, LIANG Liyun, HE Haiyan, LI Yanting, FU Yue, QIN Yongling

“…The results showed that a strain of agricultural antibiotic-producing strain Ly was screened and identified as Methylobacterium oryzae, which exhibited good antibacterial activity against F. chlamydosporum, Aspergillus aculeatu and Escherichia coli with inhibition zone diameters of 23.11 mm, 12.13 mm, and 6.80 mm, respectively. The optimal fermentation conditions for producing agricultural antibiotics by M. oryzae Ly were liquid loading volume 100 ml/250 ml, soybean cake powder as nitrogen source, fermentation temperature 31 ℃, rotation speed 220 r/min, initial pH 8, and fermentation time 7 d. …”

Developing a 160 kW continuous wave circulator for the P-band high-frequency system of the Wuhan light source by XIAO Chengcheng, ZHANG Qiang, WANG Cheng, ZHANG Junqiang, FANG Wencheng, XU Yiming

“…BackgroundSolid-state amplifiers of synchrotron radiation high-frequency cavity equipment may sustain unrecoverable damage due to the excessive reflected power resulting from load detuning, a high-power circulator is used to guide the reflected power to the absorbing load and thus protect the power source. In this case, if the reflected power suddenly increases during device operation, the temperature of the circulator cavity will be risen and the parameter characteristics of the gyromagnetic ferrite will be changed in the circulator, and eventually lead to poor absorption of the reflected power by the load.PurposeThis study aims to design and develop a circulator with a temperature compensation control unit, capable of functioning at 499.654 MHz with a 160 kW continuous wave radiofrequency power.MethodsFirstly, the circulator was simulated and optimized using the HFSS software. …”
