Experimental Investigation of Decontamination Factor Dependence on Aerosol Concentration in Pool Scrubbing by Haomin Sun, Yasuteru Sibamoto, Yuria Okagaki, Taisuke Yonomoto

“…To investigate an existence of DF dependence on the concentration, DF in a pool scrubbing with 2.4 m water submergence was derived from aerosol measurements by light scattering aerosol spectrometers. It was observed that DF increased monotonically with decreasing particle number concentration in a constant thermohydraulic condition: a gradual increase from 10 to 32 in the range of 1.3×1011 - 8.0×1011/m3 at the inlet and a significant increase from 32 to 77 in the range of 3.6×1010 - 1.3×1011/m3. …”

Recent advancements in the diverse roles of polymerase-associated proteins in the replication and pathogenesis of Newcastle disease virus by Jinghang Zhou, Yuqi Duan, Menglan Liu, Jinyang Liu, Zenglei Hu, Zhiqiang Duan

“…Despite significant progress in understanding the unique and shared functions of NDV polymerase-associated proteins, research on these viral proteins’ structure and function is less comprehensive than other NDV proteins, and the available information is often scattered. Therefore, this article systematically summarises and reviews the research progress made in understanding the structural features, virulence, pathotype, and thermostability correlation of NDV polymerase-associated proteins, as well as the critical roles of interactions between polymerase-associated proteins and host proteins in NDV replication and pathogenicity. …”

Multi-scenario territorial spatial simulation and dynamic changes: A case study of Jilin Province in China from 1985 to 2030 by Shi Dan, Liu Xuan, Jin Jing, Wan Daiji, Chen Baolong, Liu Jiping

“…The results show that: (1) From 1985 to 2020, the productive space (PS) and living space (LS) show a gradual increase trend; the ecological space (ES) shows a decrease trend. The LS is scattered except in the Changbai Mountain area; the PS is mainly concentrated in the west and expands year by year; the ES is mainly in the east, and its scope shrinks year by year. (2) From 1985 to 2020, the center of gravity of PS changes more slowly and moves northward as a whole. …”
