The invention discloses a composite of all-trans-retinoic acid and liposome and application thereof. The composite of all-trans-retinoic acid and liposome consists of the liposome and the all-trans-retinoic acid encapsulated in the liposome. The composite is prepared by a method comprising: 1) dissolving lipid materials and the all-trans-retinoic acid to prepare a mixture of a lipid membrane and the all-trans-retinoic acid; 2) hydrating the mixture of the liquid membrane and the all-trans-retinoic acid to prepare a hydration product; and 3) performing ultrasonic on the hydration product to prepare the composite of the all-trans-retinoic acid and the liposome. Experiments of the invention prove that the composite of the all-trans-retinoic acid and the liposome can be used for inhibiting the reproduction of tumor cells, and the combined application of the composite of the all-trans-retinoic acid and the liposome and Vinorelbine invisibile liposome produces the strongest inhibitory effect on the recrudesce of tumors.

The invention belongs to the field of image processing and pattern recognition, relating to a three-dimensional recognition method used for an online detection system of fabric defects. The method comprises the following steps: first converting three-dimensional data of fabrics to a coordinate system where the planes of the fabrics are positioned through coordinate transformation to realize computing of spatial dimension reduction, and then judging the types of the fabrics according to the distribution of X, Y and Z coordinates. Because of adopting three-dimensional coordinate information, the method can effectively get rid of the interference resulted from uneven wrinkles, willow catkins, ambient light or background light, not only can provide the information whether the defects exist but also can provide the types and reasons of the defects, thereby facilitating the operators to timely adjust production technology and avoiding the defects from appearing again.
