The results showed that the average soil total salt content was 0.818%, with an average pH of 8.43, and the average CI and Na＋ contents were 0.27% and 0.22%, respectively. Presenting zonal distribution feature, the soil total salt content increased gradually from west to east of Binhai New Area. Statistics on the distribution areas of different salinization degrees showed that the area of non-salinzed soils only accounted for 3.18% of the total area; with an area of 107.43 km2, mild saline soil accounted for 6.34% of the total area; the area of moderate saline soil was 173.51 km2, accounting for 10.24%; and the area of sal- inzed soils was 217.36 km2, accounting for 12.82% of the total soil area. The area of saline soils （total salt content 〉0.6%） was 1 142.8 km2, accounting 67.42% of the total land area in Binhai New Area. And the areas for the soils with total salt content of 0.6%-1.0%, 1.0%-1.5%, 〉1.5% were respectively 388.47, 411.82, 342.51 km2, accounting for 22.92%, 24.3%, 20.21% of the total area.展开更多

Interview and observation were used in collecting the needed data at selected craft centres in the Kwabre East District, Ejisu-Juaben municipality, Kumasi sub-metro and metropolitan in the Ashanti region of Ghana. The study employed both descriptive and experimental research methods based on the qualitative research approach. It was revealed that Kente and Adinkra enjoy wide reputation and therefore are considered as prestigious clothes. However, Nwomu cloth does not have this fame, only indigenes understand its usage and the philosophy behind its production. In view of this, it is recommended that the elders who are endowed with this unique craft must open their doors to the youth to learn the craft.展开更多

Shrinkage experiments of silk habotai, silk twill and silk satin fabrics were performed. The results were compared with those of the theoretical computations, and theoretical method is reliable.展开更多

The staching satin embedded in the abdominal cavity of rats could be absorbed rapidly without any macroscopic residue or organic abnormality in one week. After being embedded outside the dura mater of rats for a week, some stanching satin was found to remain in the form of unadherent small soft balls which disappeared in one more week. In the pathological examination no residue in cells was found in the major organs, and no degeneration, necrosis, hemorrhage or thrombosis in these organs and the vessels was observed. All the biochemical parameters in blood and routine urine examination were in the normal ranges. The results of the three behavior function tests were negative. It showed S-100 stanching satin, embedded in the body of rats for 12 weeks, had neither general toxicity nor adverse effect on the higher nervous activity, general behavior and equilibrium function of rats.展开更多
