  • Patent number: 11292852
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for extracting a RG-I-rich pectic polysaccharide. The method comprises the following steps: mixing and stirring a citrus fruit peel powder and a dilute hydrochloric acid solution at a low temperature to destroy cell walls of citrus peels, filtering, and then mixing the retentate with a sodium hydroxide solution for low temperature extraction, adding ethanol to the solution obtained by filtering to precipitate, and washing the obtained polysaccharide with ethanol and drying to obtain the above pectic polysaccharide. Compared with the traditional extraction method, this method reduces the hydrolysis of pectin side chains by controlling the extraction temperature, and the extracted pectic polysaccharide is rich in RG-I domain and has higher biological activity such as cancer and cardiovascular disease prevention. Energy can be greatly saved because of the low extraction temperature.

  • Publication number: 20220039025
    Abstract: A method for detecting the state of the proximity sensor, applied to a terminal including the proximity sensor and an antenna, includes: sending a predetermined instruction to the proximity sensor; determining whether the proximity sensor is abnormal based on a feedback result of the proximity sensor to the predetermined instruction; and maintaining the antenna transmitting power at a low power if the proximity sensor is abnormal. Through the feedback of the proximity sensor to the request to obtain the capacitance value, it is determined whether the proximity sensor can work normally, and in a case that the proximity sensor cannot work normally, the antenna transmitting power is reduced to avoid the continuous high antenna transmitting power due to the inability of the proximity sensor to work normally, which reduces the radiation to the human body.
