Abstract: A method of exposing microorganisms to a condition wherein the condition facilitates or inhibits growth of a specific species of microorganisms or a specific consortium of microorganisms. The condition may also stimulate microorganisms to uptake a pollutant from a fluid and/or release the pollutant. Furthermore, the microorganisms may also be harvested and used as a foodstuff for human and animal consumption.

Abstract: A drive backboard, a manufacturing method thereof, a display panel and a display device are provided. The drive backboard includes a plurality of pixel units and a plurality of spare electrode groups. Each pixel unit includes m subpixel units, and m is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. Each spare electrode group includes two first spare electrodes and one second spare electrode; two adjacent ith subpixel units respectively use one first spare electrode in each spare electrode group and share one second spare electrode in each spare electrode group, where i is a positive integer from 1 to m.

Abstract: Disclosed are a fingerprint recognition sensor, a manufacturing method, and a display device. The fingerprint recognition sensor includes a base substrate, a thin film transistor, on a side of the base substrate; and a photosensitive element, on a side of the base substrate away from the thin film transistor, the thin film transistor, the base substrate, and the photosensitive element are sequentially stacked in a thickness direction perpendicular to the base substrate, the base substrate includes a conductive structure penetrating through the base substrate in the thickness direction perpendicular to the base substrate, and the photosensitive element is connected with the thin film transistor through the conductive structure.

Abstract: A method of using algae to remove a contaminant or pollutant from a first fluid is provided. The method can include providing a growing apparatus having a first reservoir containing the first fluid and a second reservoir containing a second fluid, and growing the algae using the growing apparatus. The method can further include exposing the algae to the first fluid within the first reservoir where the algae uptakes the contaminant or pollutant from the first fluid, and exposing the algae via a belt to the second fluid in the second reservoir where the algae is stimulated to release the contaminant or pollutant.

Abstract: A method of using microorganisms to remove a pollutant from a fluid by exposing microorganisms to a fluid containing a pollutant, the microorganisms uptake the pollutant, then the microorganisms are exposed to a condition in order to stimulate the microorganisms to release the pollutant. Furthermore, the microorganisms are harvested and used as a foodstuff for human and animal consumption.

Abstract: A patterning method of a quantum dot layer, a quantum dot layer pattern, a quantum dot device, a manufacturing method of the quantum dot device, and a display apparatus are provided, The patterning method of the quantum dot layer includes: forming a quantum dot layer, in which the quantum dot layer includes quantum dots and a photoinitiator; irradiating a preset portion of the quantum dot layer by light having a preset wavelength to quench the quantum dots in the preset portion and form a patterned quantum dot layer.
