This method compares the detectors＇ responses to consecutive optical pulses and generates the random sequence. We implement a demonstration experiment to show its simplicity, compactness and scalability. The generated numbers are proved to be unbiased, post-processing free, ready to use, and their randomness is verified by using the national institute of standard technology statistical test suite. The random bit generation efficiency is as high as 32.8% and the potential generation rate adopting the 32× 32 APD array is up to tens of Gbits/s.展开更多

The signal processing method using a special sector SSPA was investigated. Based on the principle and characteristics of SSPA, a signal acquisition and processing method controlled by computer was introduced. The amplification of weak signal, the matching of time sequence, the fast peak holding with low leakage, the high speed A/D conversion and nonlinear correction were discussed. This method can acquire the peak signal of every ring of sector SSPA with high accuracy and in real time. It can be used to detect the distribution of space light energy.展开更多

The quantification of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, flavonols and anthocyanins was done by spectrophotometric methods and identification of chemical components was performed by ultraperformance liquid chromatography with photodiode array and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. Antioxidant activity was measured using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)method and by the ferric reducing/antioxidant power(FRAP) assay. Litholytic activity of E.FA and I.FA was studied using a special model that resembles circuitry of the urinary system.Results: E.FA showed greater antioxidant efficacy than I.FA(P < 0.05). Its higher efficiency was shown via the values of median inhibitory concentration, which was close to(76.14 ± 0.91) mg/mL for E.FA versus(202.64 ± 5.77) lg/mL for I.FA using the DPPH method, and(53.77 ± 0.81) lg/mL for E.FA versus(236.86 ± 31.90) lg/mL for I.FA, using FRAP method. I.FA exhibited significantly higher litholytic activity compared to E.FA(P < 0.05), with dissolution values of 31.03% ± 0.63% versus 14.55% ± 0.65%, respectively.Conclusion: Overall, the results suggest that the A. unedo is rich in bioactive compounds, and possesses antioxidant and litholitic abilities that are worthy of further study.展开更多
