Method for screening patients to predict which patients at risk of a medical disorder, such as morbid obesity, gastrointestinal problems, or gastroesophageal problems, will be responders, and conversely, which patients will not, to achieve a favorable outcome from therapy for that disorder. This method supports an intervention strategy for patients having weight or gastrointestinal problems that will cut health costs. It enables patients and care-givers alike to more efficiently use their time, efforts and resources by enabling an early selection of an appropriate treatment modality for a given patient. Its application also extends to other implantable medical devices and therapies using them.

An automated process for cleaning fruit bins, and particularly grape bins, deploys a conveyer system in which bins are simultaneously rinsed on the inside and outside in an inverted position. Two rinse cycles are rapidly completed with the conveyance of the inverted bins through a wash station. The wash station deploys a pivoting V-shaped spray rod inside the bin, below the conveyor track, while the outside is rinsed by a second surrounding inverted V-shaped spray bar that moves transverse to conveyor direction will the bin is stationary inside the wash station. A pivoting L-shaped arm with an integrated conveyor track move the bins on or off the central conveyor, while flipping them 90 degrees. Two such conveyors return the bins to an upright position for use and stacking. The water from a first rinse is optionally screened and treated before its use to rinse subsequent bins.

The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a purpose and relevant medicine of miR-135. The invention discloses the dependency of the miR-135 and the foot cell injury for the first time, and discloses the capability of overexpression miR-135 to cause foot cell injury for the first time, and the process is more similar to the human disease causing process. A foot cell injury model has the sufficient foot cell injury typical features, can well simulate the occurrence and the development of foot cells in the body, and belongs to an ideal model of foot cell injury base and clinic application study, so that the miR-135 can be well applied to the medicine for screening and treating the foot cell injury.

The invention relates to an apparatus for collecting and screening frozen soil fragments in a Hopkinson test. The apparatus comprises a protective cover which comprises an external layer semicircular protective cover and an internal layer semicircular protective cover by low temperature strong glue bonding; the protective cover is connected to a bracing frame and an internal layer slide plate by a loose-leaf hinge and a positioning pin; air vents are arranged at the lower part of the bracing frame, a channel section is arranged on the bracing frame, and a katathermometer is internally arranged in the bracing frame; a temperature control test box and a protective cover are respectively provided with a pole hole and a rotating wheel hole for a Hopkinson pressure bar and a soil scraping rotating wheel to pass through; the channel, a screw and a support bar are used for connecting the bracing frame and an electric vibrating screen; a control power supply is arranged outside a test box with controllable temperature; a temperature control system is used for controlling the temperature of the test box with controllable temperature. The apparatus can prevent secondary fragmentation of frozen soil fragments, and more frozen soil fragments are collected as possible. The frozen soil fragments are screened and treated at first time after the test, and accuracy of test data is improved.

The invention provides a schistosoma japonicum katsurada recombinant protein SjSAPLP5 as well as an encoding gene and an application thereof. The protein provided by the invention has amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID No.2 or has amino acid sequence which is formed by replacement, deletion and / or addition of one or more of amino acid residues and has the same function. The invention also provides the encoding gene for encoding the protein. The recombinant protein SjSAPLP5 provided by the invention is excellent in immunogenicity, can be served as an excellent diagnosis antigen, is used for preparing a schistosoma japonicum katsurada diagnostic kit with high sensitivity and high specificity, and is also used for preparing an anti-schistosome vaccine and the drug served as a potential drug effecting target spot and is used for screening and treating the schistosoma japonicum katsurada diseases.
