Abstract: A method for preparing (S)-nicotine by reduction includes conducting a reduction process on an alkene compound as shown in Formula I and/or an iminium cation compound as shown in Formula II, thereby producing (S)-nicotine. The method is simple, safe, reliable, and yields both high purity and high quantities of (S)-nicotine production.

Abstract: A Streptococcus suis (S. suis) vaccine is provided. For the S. suis vaccine, an antigen is a protein with an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2. A preparation method of the S. suis vaccine is provided, including the following steps: mixing a white oil and aluminum stearate to obtain a white oil adjuvant; adding poly sorbate 80 to an aqueous solution of the protein with the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2, and thoroughly mixing to obtain an antigen solution; and mixing the antigen solution with the white oil adjuvant according to a volume ratio of (0.5-1.5):2, and emulsifying to obtain the S. suis vaccine. An animal immunized with the S. suis vaccine of the present disclosure can effectively resist the attack of S. suis serotype 2, 3, and 31, with a vaccine protection rate as high as 100%.

Abstract: A packet forwarding method and apparatus, and a communication network, related to the field of communication technologies. In the solutions provided, a controller may obtain a correspondence between an application-aware identifier of a service flow and a network service required for transmitting the service flow, and deliver the correspondence to a network device. Further, when identifying the service flow as a service flow indicated by the application-aware identifier, the network device may directly forward a packet of the service flow by using the corresponding network service. The controller may establish and deliver the correspondence between the application-aware identifier and the network service, so that the network device can directly forward the service packet of the service flow based on the correspondence. Therefore, flexibility of forwarding the service packet is effectively improved.

Abstract: A pneumatic tool includes, but is not limited to, an air motor cylinder defining an interior configured to receive an air motor and further defining an inlet configured to receive pressurized air to supply to the air motor; a tool handle defining a source fluid passageway fluidically coupled between the inlet and an air inlet configured to receive pressurized air, the source fluid passageway configured to direct a first portion of pressurized air received by the inlet to the inlet of the air motor cylinder; an air pressure indicator coupled to the air motor cylinder and configured to provide an indication of a dynamic air pressure of the pneumatic tool; and an indicator fluid passageway fluidically coupled between the air pressure indicator and the source fluid passageway, the indicator fluid passageway configured to divert a second portion of pressurized air received by the air inlet to the air pressure indicator.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a true triaxial tester with adjustable loading stiffness and a test method, relating to the technical field of rock mechanics. The tester includes a first principal stress variable stiffness loading apparatus, a second principal stress variable stiffness loading apparatus, a third principal stress loading apparatus, a monitoring system, and a control system. The monitoring system includes a stiffness sensor, a pressure sensor, and a displacement sensor. Loading stiffness in a first principal stress direction and a second principal stress direction is adjustable. The tester has the following advantages: it has fixed loading stiffness, can complete stiffness loading of one side being free and five sides being variable, and is easy to operate.
