RESUMO

Metal sulfide, being a high-capacity anode material, is a promising anode material for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, most research efforts have focused on improving their low cycling performance due to multiple combined factors, including low conductivity, huge volume changes, multi-step conversion/alloying reactions, and redox shuttling effect, during the cycling process. Here, we report that by using AgSbS2 nanowires as LIB anode materials, a record-breaking long cycle life metal sulfide anode has been achieved through the silver synergistic electrochemical performance effect. We found that while the AgSbS2 nanowire anode is cycled, Ag precipitated out to form a nanocrystal tightly connected with Sb and S and plays a key role in highly-reversible electrochemical performance. Ag can effectively enhance the electrode conductivity, increase ion diffusion rate, serve a diluent huge volume changes during conversion-alloying reactions, improve the absorbability and catalytic ability towards LiPSs to reduce shutting effect of sulfur, and enhanced Li+ adsorption. As a result, AgSbS2 nanowire anodes maintain 90% capacity retention over 5000 and 7000 cycles at the current densities of 500 mA g-1 and 2000 mA g-1, respectively, whereas the capacities of Sb2S3 nanowire and Sb2S3/C nanowire anodes drop rapidly within 10 cycles. The ultra-stable cycle life is superior to the state-of-the-art metal sulfide anodes. Finally, using AgSbS2 nanowires as the anode combined with the cathode LiNi5Co3Mn2, a full battery after 480 cycles was assembled to verify that its stability (high retention rate of 99.5%) can be used in the current commercial battery architecture. This work solves multiple problems related to shuttling effects and complex reactions of metal sulfide anodes, and provides important progress for the future development of metal sulfide anodes for LIBs.

RESUMO

Asia harbors substantial cultural and linguistic diversity, but the geographic structure of genetic variation across the continent remains enigmatic. Here we report a large-scale survey of autosomal variation from a broad geographic sample of Asian human populations. Our results show that genetic ancestry is strongly correlated with linguistic affiliations as well as geography. Most populations show relatedness within ethnic/linguistic groups, despite prevalent gene flow among populations. More than 90% of East Asian (EA) haplotypes could be found in either Southeast Asian (SEA) or Central-South Asian (CSA) populations and show clinal structure with haplotype diversity decreasing from south to north. Furthermore, 50% of EA haplotypes were found in SEA only and 5% were found in CSA only, indicating that SEA was a major geographic source of EA populations.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Copy number variations (CNVs) have recently been recognized as important structural variations in the human genome. CNVs can affect gene expression and thus may contribute to phenotypic differences. The copy number inferring tool (CNIT) is an effective hidden Markov model-based algorithm for estimating allele-specific copy number and predicting chromosomal alterations from single nucleotide polymorphism microarrays. The CNIT algorithm, which was constructed using data from 270 HapMap multi-ethnic individuals, was applied to identify CNVs from 300 unrelated Han Chinese individuals in Taiwan. RESULTS: Using stringent selection criteria, 230 regions with variable copy numbers were identified in the Han Chinese population; 133 (57.83%) had been reported previously, 64 displayed greater than 1% CNV allele frequency. The average size of the CNV regions was 322 kb (ranging from 1.48 kb to 5.68 Mb) and covered a total of 2.47% of the human genome. A total of 196 of the CNV regions were simple deletions and 27 were simple amplifications. There were 449 genes and 5 microRNAs within these CNV regions; some of these genes are known to be associated with diseases. CONCLUSION: The identified CNVs are characteristic of the Han Chinese population and should be considered when genetic studies are conducted. The CNV distribution in the human genome is still poorly characterized, and there is much diversity among different ethnic populations.

RESUMO

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common sequence variation in the human genome; they have been successfully used in mapping disease genes and more recently in studying population genetics and cancer genetics. In a population-based association study using high-density oligonucleotide arrays for whole-genome SNP genotyping, we discovered that in the genomes of unrelated Han Chinese, 34 out of 515 (6.6%) individuals contained long contiguous stretches of homozygosity (LCSHs), ranging in the size from 2.94 to 26.27 Mbp (10.22+/-5.95 Mbp). Four out of four (100%) Taiwan aborigines also demonstrated this genetic characteristic. The number of LCSH regions increased markedly in the offspring of consanguineous marriages. LCSH was also detected in Caucasian samples (11/42; 26.2%) and African American samples (2/42; 4.76%). A total of 26 LCSH regions were recurrently detected among Han Chinese, Taiwan aborigines, and Caucasians. DNA copy number determination by hybridization intensity analysis and real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) excluded deletion as the cause of LCSH. Our results suggest that LCSHs are common in the human genome of the outbred population and this genetic characteristic could have a significant impact on population genetics and disease gene studies.
