Abstract: The disclosure discloses a Pickering emulsion stabilized by cellulose from ginkgo seed shells and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the fields of preparation methods of biomass materials and food chemical industry. The disclosure uses ginkgo seed shells as a raw material to obtain high-purity cellulose through hot alkali treatment and sodium chlorite bleaching. After the cellulose is dried, the cellulose is hydrolyzed with sulfuric acid to obtain a cellulose nanocrystal suspension. The suspension is mixed with an oil phase, and the Pickering emulsion is obtained through high-speed shearing and homogeneous emulsification. The disclosure can prepare cellulose nanocrystals with different aspect ratios by adjusting the parameters of high-speed shearing and homogeneous emulsification according to actual production needs.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing an electronic circuit which uses CMOS technology, the method comprising: (a) a step of metal deposition (200) and etching to form metal connections (P, P?, . . . ) at a first level in a substrate, (b) a step of depositing a layer of dielectric material (110, . . . ) covering the metal connections, (c) a step of producing through-passages (112) in the thickness of the dielectric material, (d) a step of filling these passages with an interconnect metal (300), in order to form vias (V) connecting the levels. Steps (a) to (d) are repeated to form the metal connections (P, P?, . . . ) at different depths, connected by interconnection vias (V) in the thickness of the circuit.

Abstract: Provided are a series of crocins compounds and related pharmacological applications thereof in prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The series of crocins compounds are obtained by taking the Chinese herb, namely Gardenia jasminoides Ellis, as a raw material and separating same by means of various methods. The compounds playing a role in preventing oxidative injury caused by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and excitatory amino acid injury caused by L-glutamic acid are screened out by in-vitro cell experiments. The results show that the crocins compounds have good effect in preventing cell injury caused by H2O2 and L-glutamic acid. The compounds have good effect in preventing and treating Alzheimer's disease due to the fact that significant rise of oxidative stress and excitatory amino acid is a key factor for nerve injury in Alzheimer's disease, and have broad development and application prospect.
