Abstract: The invention provides a multi-temperature air conditioning system, a control method thereof and a transport refrigeration vehicle. The multi-temperature air conditioning system comprises: an outdoor unit, in which a compressor, a first stop valve, an outdoor heat exchanger, and a second stop valve connected through pipelines are arranged, wherein, the first stop valve is arranged between a first end of the outdoor heat exchanger and an exhaust port of the compressor, and the second stop valve is arranged between a second end of the outdoor heat exchanger and a suction port of the compressor; a first type indoor unit, in which a first indoor heat exchanger, a first throttling element, a third stop valve, and a fourth stop valve are arranged; and a second type indoor unit, in which a second indoor heat exchanger, a second throttling element, a fifth stop valve, and a sixth stop valve are arranged.

Abstract: Bacteria of the sp. Bacillus that produce a lipopeptide are found to be effective in the treatment and prophylaxis of gastro-intestinal disease when administered as a probiotic. In particular, a strain of Bacillus bacteria identified as PB6 is useful for the treatment of Antibiotic Associated Diarrhea (AAD) or the more serious condition Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea (CDAD) when administered as a probiotic. Additionally, these bacteria have been found efficient for the treatment of immunorelated diseases such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

Abstract: The absorption and deposition of carotenoids added to poultry diets into the yolk of eggs produced by the poultry is improved by adding a carotenoid formulation comprising a carotenoid, a vegetable oil, a surfactant, a chelating agent, an antioxidant, an alkali and a solvent. The carotenoid formulation can reduce the crystalline nature of lutein for its better dissolution in the formulation and the diet. This new formulation is capable of making more micelles for an effective transfer of lutein from the formulations to the aqueous layer. The new formulation can increase the bioavailability of lutein in chicken biological system and leads to more deposition in the blood and the egg. The lutein deposition in the egg was consistent for an extended period of time when this new formulation was added to the diet. Addition of this carotenoid formulation to the diet increased the antioxidant power of the blood. Eggs produced by poultry fed diets supplemented by the formulation have in excess of 0.
