ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the musculoskeletal injuries related to touch screen VDT operation and design implications.Methods The effects of touch screen size and angles on touch-screen-VDT-operation-related muscle load and fatigue were explored using thorough experiment and EMG acquisition method,and the independent variables included the size and angle and the dependant variables consisted of the load and fatigue of flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS),extensor digitorum communis (EDC),extensor carpi radialis (ECR) and extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU).Results No significant difference was found with regard to pointing success rate and accuracy at all screen sizes and angles levels.FDS and EDC MVC％ increased with increasing touch screen size at all levels of angles.FDS MVC％ decreased while EDC MVC％ increased with inclining angles at all levels of touch screen sizes.All measured muscles' MF did not decrease with time.Conclusion This study helps to provide basis for the optimization of equipment design,reduce exposure to musculoskeletal injuries risks and implement primary prevention.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the patent application of artificial cultivation and seed treatment technology of Paridis Rhizoma and natural resources protection. METHODS:Retrieved from State Intellectual Property Office patent database,“Paridis Rhizoma”and“Paris polyphylla”were used as search keywords from 1985 to March 31,2015;Paridis Rhizoma cultiva-tion and seed treatment technology patents as research object were analyzed in fields of the amount of patent application,regional construction and legal status,etc. RESULTS:Among 54 Paridis Rhizoma cultivation patent application,there were 19 applications from Yunnan,9 from Sichuan,8 from Hubei,5 from Anhui,4 from Hunan,3 from Guizhou,2 from Jiangxi,1 from Fujian, Shanxi,Jiangsu,Guangxi respectively;there were 18 licensed patents,and 13 licensed patents maintained more than 3 years, among which 1 patent right transferred;from aspect of patent without right,6 patent right were given up due to fail to pay annual fee,1 rejected and 5 withdrawn;from main types of patent proposer,enterprise submitted 24 patent application,universities 15, scientific research institutes 8 and other 7. 24 enterprise patents involved 21 enterprises,indicating that patent protection net didn’t form due to disperse proposers. CONCLUSIONS:Patent application is mainly from Yunnan. There still are some problems,such as small number of patent applications,poor quality of application writing,little patent transformation. It is suggested to plan artificial cultivation technology,enhance the quality of patent application,pay attention to patent operation and achievement transformation and other measures,in order to protect Paridis Rhizoma resource and industrial development.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To establish a gas chromatography method for determination of methyl propyl ketone in the air of workplace.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Methyl propyl ketone in the air of workplace was collected with activated carbon tubes and desorbed with carbon disulfide before sample loading. The target toxicant was separated with the capillary column and detected with a hydrogen flame ionization detector, identified by retention time, and quantified by peak area.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The linear range of methyl propyl ketone in the air of workplace was 202.5∼4 860.0 µg/ml, with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 98. The limit of detection was 1.5 µg/ml. The lower limit of quantification was 5.0 µg/ml. The minimum detectable concentration was 1.0 mg/m(3) under 1.5 L sampling volume and 1.0 ml desorption solution volume. The relative standard deviation of different methyl propyl ketone concentrations was 1.42%∼1.65%, and the recovery rate was 94.9%∼ 97.9%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>This method has high sensitivity, precision, and accuracy, and it is applicable for determination of methyl propyl ketone in the air of workplace.</p>
