  • Publication number: 20250114484
    Abstract: An aqueous synthesis methodology for the preparation of silica nanoparticles (SNPs), core-shell SNPs having, for example, a size of 2 to 15 nm and narrow size-dispersion with size control below 1 nm, i.e. at the level of a single atomic layer. Different types of dyes, including near infrared (NIR) emitters, can be covalently encapsulated within and brightness can be enhanced via addition of extra silica shells. The surface may be functionalized with polyethylene glycol (PEG) groups and, optionally, specific surface ligands. This aqueous synthesis methodology also enables synthesis of 2 to 15 nm sized fluorescent core and core-shell aluminosilicate nanoparticles (ASNPs) which may also be surface functionalized. Encapsulation efficiency and brightness of highly negatively charged NIR fluorophores is enhanced relative to the corresponding SNPs without aluminum.

    Abstract: A multi-use monitoring system is disclosed, which comprises an electronic device, multiple sensor devices, multiple cameras, at least one wireless interface, and a remote electronic device. According to the present invention, the sensor devices are adopted for detecting multiple environmental parameters such as gas level, humidity and temperature, and the multiple cameras are controlled to acquire images from the poultry bred in a breeding environment. Therefore, after receiving the images and the environmental parameters from the electronic device, the remote electronic device can extract at least one poultry characteristic from the images, and then correlate the environmental parameters to the poultry characteristic(s). As a result, the remote electronic device can subsequently calculate an evaluation score according to the growth and/or health state of the poultry, such that the breeder can plan how to distribute the breeding resources for the poultry.
