  • Patent number: 12233098
    Abstract: A preparation method of Antrodia cinnamomea water-insoluble dietary fiber. After ethanol and water extraction, Antrodia cinnamomea wastes are dried and superfine-comminuted to obtain Antrodia cinnamomea waste powder. The waste powder treated with NaOH solution containing NaBH4 is extracted it twice to obtain two extracts. The two extracts are combined and an appropriate amount of glacial acetic acid are added for neutralization. The extracts are centrifugalized and precipitate is collected. After washing the precipitate with ultrapure water, the precipitate is dissolved with LiCl-DMSO. The precipitate that is insoluble in the LiCl-DMSO solution is dialyzed and freeze-dried to obtain the water-insoluble dietary fiber component ACA-IDK of Antrodia cinnamomea. The LiCl-DMSO solution is subjected to ethanol/DMSO fractional precipitation, and then the precipitate is collected and dialyzed. The water-insoluble dietary fiber component ACA-DK of Antrodia cinnamomea is obtained after freeze-drying.

  • Publication number: 20230333562
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a warehousing robot control method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. In the method in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a preset area is arranged near a workstation, and a throttling condition corresponding to the preset area is set. When the number of the robot in the preset area meets the throttling condition, a scheduling server sends an avoidance instruction to a warehousing robot that meets an avoidance condition, the avoidance instruction being used for indicating an operation of the warehousing robot that meets the avoidance condition stopping entering the preset area. If an avoidance instruction is received, a warehousing robot enters an avoidance state and stops moving toward a preset area of a workstation allocated to the warehousing robot. This can reduce the number of warehousing robots that wait near a workstation, thereby avoiding congestion near the workstation, and improving goods pick-and-place efficiency.
