文摘cis-1,3,4,6-Tetranitrooctahydroimidazo-[4,5 d]imidazole(BCHMX)is an advanced energetic compound that expected to spread worldwide in the near future.Since,no approved remote detection methods were reported in current literature for this material,we performed hyper-spectral imaging and laser induced fluorescence(LIF)to a BCHMX sample under low laser fluence for determining the optimum laser wavelength used in any future BCHMX-LIF based remote detection systems.For this purpose,an experimental setup consisted of a sun spectrum lamp and hyper-spectral camera was built to illuminate and image white powder samples of BCHMX in comparison with the traditional explosives,HMX(1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetraazacyclooctane),RDX(1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane),PETN(2,2-Bis[(nitroxy)methyl]propane-1,3-diyldinitrate).The imaging reveals strong BCHMX sample absorption contrast among other samples at wavelength ranging from 400 to 410 nm.When light source was replaced by a 405 nm laser diode illuminator,a strong BCHMX sample LIF at the spectral range from 425 to 700 nm was observed under low laser fluence condition of 0.1 mJ/cm^(2).Finally,we demonstrated successfully the ability of the 405 nm LIF and the hyperspectral imaging technique to detect finger print traces of BCHMX on white cellulose fabric from a distance of 15 m and a detection limit of 1 mg/cm^(2).

文摘In the underwater waveguide,the conventional adaptive subspace detector(ASD),derived by using the generalized likelihood ratio test(GLRT)theory,suffers from a significant degradation in detection performance when the samplings of training data are deficient.This paper proposes a dimension-reduced approach to alleviate this problem.The dimension reduction includes two steps:firstly,the full array is divided into several subarrays;secondly,the test data and the training data at each subarray are transformed into the modal domain from the hydrophone domain.Then the modal-domain test data and training data at each subarray are processed to formulate the subarray statistic by using the GLRT theory.The final test statistic of the dimension-reduced ASD(DR-ASD)is obtained by summing all the subarray statistics.After the dimension reduction,the unknown parameters can be estimated more accurately so the DR-ASD achieves a better detection performance than the ASD.In order to achieve the optimal detection performance,the processing gain of the DR-ASD is deduced to choose a proper number of subarrays.Simulation experiments verify the improved detection performance of the DR-ASD compared with the ASD.

文摘With the approval of more and more genetically modified(GM)crops in our country,GM safety management has become more important.Transgenic detection is a major approach for transgenic safety management.Nevertheless,a convenient and visual technique with low equipment requirements and high sensitivity for the field detection of GM plants is still lacking.On the basis of the existing recombinase polymerase amplification(RPA)technique,we developed a multiplex RPA(multi-RPA)method that can simultaneously detect three transgenic elements,including the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S gene(CaMV35S)promoter,neomycin phosphotransferaseⅡgene(NptⅡ)and hygromycin B phosphotransferase gene(Hyg),thus improving the detection rate.Moreover,we coupled this multi-RPA technique with the CRISPR/Cas12a reporter system,which enabled the detection results to be clearly observed by naked eyes under ultraviolet(UV)light(254 nm;which could be achieved by a portable UV flashlight),therefore establishing a multi-RPA visual detection technique.Compared with the traditional test strip detection method,this multi-RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a technique has the higher specificity,higher sensitivity,wider application range and lower cost.Compared with other polymerase chain reaction(PCR)techniques,it also has the advantages of low equipment requirements and visualization,making it a potentially feasible method for the field detection of GM plants.

文摘Mercury removal from coal combustion flue gas remains a significant challenge for environmental protection due to the lack of cost-effective sorbents.In this study,a series of red mud(RM)-based sorbents impregnated with sodium halides(NaBr and NaI)are presented to capture elemental mercury(Hg^(0))from flue gas.The modified RM underwent comprehensive characterization,including analysis of its textural qualities,crystal structure,chemical composition,and thermal properties.The results indicate that the halide impregnation substantially impacts the surface area and pore size of the RM.Hg^(0) removal performance was evaluated on a fixed-bed reactor in simulated flue gas(consisting of N_(2),O_(2),CO_(2),NO and SO_(2),etc.)on a modified RM.At an optimal adsorption temperature of 160℃,NaI-modified sorbent(RMI5)offers a removal efficiency of 98%in a mixture of gas,including O_(2),NO and HCl.Furthermore,pseudo-second-order model fitting results demonstrate the chemisorption mechanism for the adsorption of Hg^(0) in kinetic investigations.
文摘Bovine serum albumin(BSA)and glycine(Gly)dual-ligand-modified copper nanoclusters(BSA-Gly CuNCs)with high fluorescence intensity were synthesized by a one-pot strategy.Based on the competitive fluorescence quenching and dynamic quenching effects of ornidazole(ONZ)on BSA-Gly CuNCs,a simple and sensitive detection method for ONZ was successfully developed.The experimental results demonstrate that the addition of the small molecule Gly can more effectively protect CuNCs,and thus enhance its fluorescence intensity and stability.The proposed assay allowed for the detection of ONZ in a linear range of 0.28 to 52.60μmol·L^(-1)and a detection limit of 0.069μmol·L^(-1).Compared with the single-ligand-modified CuNCs,dual-ligand-modified BSA-Gly CuNCs had higher fluorescence intensity,stability,and sensing ability and were successfully applied to evaluate ONZ in actual ONZ tablets.
文摘Herein,copper nanoclusters(Cu NCs)were synthesized in aqueous solution through a chemical reduction method using polyethyleneimine as reducing agent and protective ligand,with Cu(NO_(3))_(2)as copper source.Subse-quently,composite fluorescent nanoparticles,chitosan-functionalized silica nanoparticles(CSNPs)-coated Cu NCs(Cu NCs/CSNPs),were synthesized via a reverse microemulsion method.Compared with Cu NCs,the composite Cu NCs/CSNPs exhibited an increased quantum yield and enhanced fluorescence sensing performance.Based on the composite Cu NCs/CSNPs,a fluorescence method for the detection of cefixime fluorescence quenching was estab-lished.The technique was simple,sensitive,and selective for detecting cefixime.The fluorescence quenching effi-ciency of Cu NCs/CSNPs was linearly related to the concentration of cefixime in the range of 3.98-38.5µmol·L^(-1)(1.81-17.46 mg·L^(-1)),with a limit of detection of 0.0455µmol·L^(-1)(20.6µg·L^(-1)).

文摘Lunar impact crater detection is crucial for lunar surface studies and spacecraft landing missions,yet deep learning still struggles with accurately detecting small craters,especially when relying on incomplete catalogs.In this work,we integrate Digital Elevation Model(DEM)data to construct a high-quality dataset enriched with slope information,enabling a detailed analysis of crater features and effectively improving detection performance in complex terrains and low-contrast areas.Based on this foundation,we propose a novel two-stage detection network,MSFNet,which leverages multi-scale adaptive feature fusion and multisize ROI pooling to enhance the recognition of craters across various scales.Experimental results demonstrate that MSFNet achieves an F1 score of 74.8%on Test Region1 and a recall rate of 87%for craters with diameters larger than 2 km.Moreover,it shows exceptional performance in detecting sub-kilometer craters by successfully identifying a large number of high-confidence,previously unlabeled targets with a low false detection rate confirmed through manual review.This approach offers an efficient and reliable deep learning solution for lunar impact crater detection.
