Impact Toughness of an NM400 Wear-Resistant Steel
An NM400 wear-resistant steel was hot rolled and then the plates were heat-treated by direct quenching and tempering (DQT) and reheat quenching and tempering (RQT) techniques, respectively. The Charpy impact t...

Exopolysaccharide-deficient mutants of Astragali rhizobia are symbiotically effective on Astragalus sinicus, an indeterminate nodulating host
Five exopolysaccharide-deficient mutants were isolated after rhizobial strain 107 was subjected to transposon Tn5 mutagenesis. The amount of EPS produced by the mutants was dramatically decreased to between 3%...

Generalized Nitrogen Regulation in the Purple Non-Sulfur Photosynthetic Bacteria
A quarter century ago, the researchers in our laboratory had investigated the mechanism of hydrogen evolution in the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter palustris, which was later found to be a nitrogenase-catal...
