Abstract: Present invention teaches the method of using a keratin hydrolysis peptide (“KHP”) solution to increase the grape plant's production yield. By selectively choosing specific weights of feathers and water, and treating the mixture, though one embodiment does not have water mixed in, to a high-temperature high-pressure hydrolysis process, the resulting solution is confirmed to contain at least 253 peptides and then applied to the leaf surface of grape plants at different growth stages. Optionally, the KHP solution can be diluted by water, as taught in the specification, before applying to the leaf surface of the grape plants.

Abstract: Present invention uses a mixture of feathers and water, and, depending on specific embodiments of the ratio between feathers and water, subject the mixture to a high-temperature and high-pressure treatment process for a fixed amount of time, resulting in a keratin solution containing at least 253 peptides, with their molecular masses between 500 and 4,000 Daltons, and the concentration is in the range of 2.0×105˜4.5×105 ppm. The solution can then be further diluted by water for application to different plants, at specific growth stages, following additional steps or processes of application to increase crops yield.

Abstract: A method and system for fish identification based on body surface texture features and geometric features are provided. The method employs an improved Resnet network and a deep learning Yolov8 network to extract body surface texture features and geometric features of a fish on the basis of considering influences of fish tail swing and an oxygen concentration on a fish body form based on a small sample learning framework, and then realizes identity recognition of a fish individual by coupled analysis of the body surface texture features and the geometric features. The method can realize high-accuracy fish identification with few training samples of a fish to be identified from the perspective of actual application, provides theoretical basis and technical support for accurate fish stock assessment and accurate estimation of industrially farmed fish biomass, and meets the development requirements of modern agriculture.

The antibodies can comprise an Fc region containing a mutation that reduces or eliminates binding to Fc receptors, reducing or eliminating Fc gamma receptor (Fc?R)-mediated cross-linking or clustering.

Abstract: The application discloses a placement system for a door of a wafer pod, including a loadport. A docking interface is formed in the loadport, a placement mechanism is arranged on one side surface of the loadport, and includes a swing component, a follower component, and a docking plate. The swing component and the follower component are respectively connected to the docking plate, and the swing component can drive the docking plate to place the docking plate obliquely above the docking interface. By utilizing the space at the top of the loadport, the structural layout of the loadport is more reasonable; and the docking plate is placed nearly horizontally after the door is placed at a designated position, and provides a supporting force to the door, so that dependence on the vacuum suction is decreased, thereby avoiding the influences due to fluctuations of air pressure.
