Dietary Sodium Butyrate Supplementation Attenuates the Detrimental Effects of High-Fat Diets on Growth Performance, Liver Health, and Disease Resistance in Grass Carp

Abstract An 8-week experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of sodium butyrate (NaBT) inclusion in high-fat (HF) diets on growth performance, liver health, and disease resistance in Grass Carp Ctenopharyngodon idella. Three diets (Control diet containing crude lipid at 58 g/kg, HF diet with 108-g/kg crude lipid, and NaBT diet with 108-g/kg crude lipid and 1-g/kg NaBT) were randomly assigned to nine tanks with 30 fish (9.50 ± 0.06 g) in each tank. After the feeding trial, disease resistance was assessed by injecting the fish with Aeromonas hydrophila. Compared to the Control diet group, the HF diet group showed lower specific growth rate, feed efficiency, and survival rate (15.7%) after the A. hydrophila challenge; significantly higher activity levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in plasma; higher malondialdehyde content; higher messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of interleukin-8, cysteinyl aspartate specific protease (caspase) 9, and caspase 3; lower activity level of glutathione peroxidase; and lower mRNA expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 in liver. However, the NaBT diet significantly increased fish growth performance and survival rate (39.7%) after the A. hydrophila challenge and reduced hepatic oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis compared to the HF diet. In conclusion, NaBT can ameliorate the detrimental effects of HF diets on fish growth performance and fish health.

Onion-Like nanoparticles of the metal–organic framework UiO-66 synthesized by sequential spike crystal growth

Reproducible size and morphology of metal–organic framework (MOF) particles are essential for tuning these materials for applications like heterogeneous catalysis. Particle size measurements from electron micrographs provide information about the impact of changing synthetic parameters on MOF growth, but reported data are usually limited to averages and statistical distributions. Further elucidating synthetic control parameters could facilitate studies of facet-dependent and non-classical growth mechanisms. Here, in this work, phase-pure nanoparticles of the MOF UiO-66 were synthesized using alternating spikes of zirconium and hafnium-based nodes, forming an onion-like structure with alternating layers of Zr-UiO-66 and Hf-UiO-66. In conventional, bright-field transmission electron micrographs, Hf-UiO-66 and Zr-UiO-66 layers appeared darker and lighter, respectively. Alternating layers of Hf-UiO-66 and Zr-UiO-66 were also apparent in elemental maps obtained using scanning transmission electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Average particle sizes increased monotonically with each spike, and no Zr-only or Hf-only particles were observed after the first spike, indicating that new material was consistently incorporated onto existing seeds. Surface area of the onion-like particles and their uptake of Ni 2+ from solution were both between the values measured for Zr-UiO-66 and Hf-UiO-66. Results demonstrate the use of sequential spikes of nodes in monitoring crystal growth in MOFs.

Mechanisms of paint bake response in resistance spot-welded first and third generation AHSS

Implementation of 3rd generation advanced high strength steels (3GAHSS) in automotive structures requires careful consideration of joining process implications. Due to the presence of increased carbon equivalent in 3GAHSS such as 980 HF relative to commonly-applied 1st generation AHSS such as 980 DP, the resultant properties of the weld nugget and heat affected zones in resistance spot welded must be engineered to provide consistent and acceptable performance, specifically in cross-tension loading mode. Although the as-welded cross-tension strength (CTS) of 980 HF is less than 980 DP, there is a significant improvement of the CTS after paint baking in 980 HF welds. 980 DP steel welds do not exhibit such marked improvement upon baking. The mechanism of the strong and beneficial effect of paint baking on 980 HF in comparison to 980 DP is discussed in light of its effect on residual stress distributions and microstructures. Although residual stress (strain) reduction is observed via synchrotron x-ray diffraction for all tested steels, this effect is demonstrated as secondary to the performance restoration of the weld joint in cross tension. High-resolution electron channeling contrast imaging (ECCI) micrographs reveal that paint baking affects a more beneficial degree of martensite tempering in 980 HF as compared to 980 DP. The martensite tempering is also evidenced by both a reduction in nano-hardness of critical microstructural features and re-emergence of ductile fracture behavior following the paint baking process. The tempering of martensite is concluded to be the dominant mechanism in improving cross tension strength of 3GAHSS welds following paint baking.

Charm and bottom hadrons in hot hadronic matter

Heavy quarks, and the hadrons containing them, are excellent probes of the QCD medium formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, as they provide essential information on the transport properties of the medium and how quarks color-neutralize into hadrons. Large theoretical and phenomenological efforts have been dedicated thus far to assess the diffusion of charm and bottom quarks in the quark–gluon plasma and their subsequent hadronization into heavy-flavor (HF) hadrons. However, the fireball formed in heavy-ion collisions also features an extended hadronic phase, and therefore any quantitative analysis of experimental observables needs to account for the rescattering of charm and bottom hadrons. This is further reinforced by the presence of a QCD cross-over transition and the notion that the interaction strength is maximal in the vicinity of the pseudo-critical temperature. We review existing approaches for evaluating the interactions of open HF hadrons in a hadronic heat bath and the pertinent results for scattering amplitudes, spectral functions and transport coefficients. While most of the work to date has focused on D -mesons, we also discuss excited states as well as HF baryons and the bottom sector. Both the HF hadro-chemistry and bottom observables will play a key role in future experimental measurements. We also conduct a survey of transport calculations in heavy-ion collisions that have included effects of hadronic HF diffusion and assess its impact on various observables.
