So I’d like to twist the ancient curse into a prayer for you and yours: May you shop in somewhat dirty street markets but contract no disease.

  • Enzymes Are Nature's Catalysts, Featuring High Reactivity, Selectivity

    Enzymes Are Nature's Catalysts, Featuring High Reactivity, Selectivity

    ************************* Report Title************************************* Dr. Yao Chen Full Professor personal State Key Laboratory of Medicinal photograph Chemical Biology College of Pharmacy Nankai University Tianjin, China 300071 Phone: 01186-18222132527 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Enzymes are nature’s catalysts, featuring high reactivity, selectivity, and specificity under mild conditions. Enzymatic catalysis has long been of great interest to chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries. However, the use of enzymes for industrial applications is often handicapped by their low operational stability, difficult recovery, and lack of reusability under operational conditions. Immobilization of enzymes on solid supports can enhance enzyme stability as well as facilitate separation and recovery for reuse while maintaining activity and selectivity. As new classes of crystalline solid- state materials, porous frameworks materials (such as covalent-organic frameworks, COFs and metal-organic frameworks, MOFs) feature high surface area, tunable pore size, high stability, and easily tailored functionality, which entitle them as ideal supports for encapsulation of biomolecules to form novel composite materials for various applications. Our researches mainly focus on their biocatalysis, biomimetic and medicinal applications. This novel platform based on those biomolecule-incorporation composite materials exhibited various functionality and superior separation efficiency, biocatalytic performances and great potentials on biopharmaceutical formulations. Brief Biography Dr. Yao Chen obtained master degree from Nanjing Tech University, then obtained Ph.D degree from University of South Florida. After finished a posdoc training at UC San Diego, she moved back to China, and is now a full professor of State Key Laboratory of Medicinal Chemical Biology and College of Pharmacy at Nankai University. Her research interest mostly focuses on incorporating biomolecule into porous supports (e.g.

    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

The Nationalists drew their power from China's citizens, but they also subjected them to a regimen of training and control. Petitions from the ``Nanjing decade'' highlight the resulting tensions between government and the governed. Citizens from all walks of life accepted the ruling party's invitation to participate in the construction of the republic. Yet they also used petitions to seek redress when they believed the Nationalists had fallen short of their obligations. These documents mark a turbulent period of transition from imperial rule to representative democracy. They also characterize an era when new political ideas, new media, and new social organizations helped people take an old device and transform it into a useful weapon for asserting their rights as modern citizens. TUTELARY GOVERNMENT AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE MODERN PETITION The ®nal Chinese dynasty had been overthrown in 1911 because it was unresponsive to the changing opinions of its subjects. The imperial government had maintained a tradition of court memorials circulated between local and higher of®cials, all the way up to the Emperor.1 But this à The materials used in this article were gathered with support from the Center for Chinese Studies (Taipei, Taiwan), the Fulbright Foundation, the Chiang-Ching Kuo Foundation, the Committee on Scholarly Communication with China, and the American Council of Learned Societies.

    LA ECONOMÍA DE MERCADO Y LA TRANSFORMACIÓN DEL COMERCIO MINORISTA EN CHINA THE MARKET ECONOMY AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF RETAIL TRADE IN CHINA Carmen O. Bocanegra Gastelum 1 , Miguel A. Vazquez Ruiz2, Eduardo Salas Garcia3 Introducción Actualmente no se pone en duda el crecimiento que ha registrado la economía China en las tres últimas décadas, no solo como motor de crecimiento internamente sino también de la economía global. Esta dinámica se debe entre otros factores a las reformas económicas aplicadas desde la década de los años setenta en el pasado siglo XX, con las cuales abrió sus puertas a la economía de mercado. Un indicador por demás elocuente de la nueva economía china es el producto interno bruto, que de 1993 a 2013, creció a una tasa promedio anual de entre el 7 y el 14 por ciento. Muy superior a las economías del resto del mundo, incluso mayores a las del PIB mundial. Estas reformas han favorecido el surgimiento de un sector minorista con las características de las economías de libre mercado, alta inversión extranjera y oriunda, en formatos de supermercados, hipermercados y tiendas departamentales, ofreciendo una diversa gama de artículos, en tiendas abiertas las 24 horas del día y con la correspondiente publicidad referente a la calidad y precios bajos en las mercancías. Todo ello, para atraer la preferencia del consumidor final y los ingresos destinados a los bienes personales. Uno de los objetivos que se ha propuesto el gobierno chino, es elevar el consumo personal, tanto de las comunidades urbanas como rurales. Apoyadas en el crédito al consumo y en la comercialización por las cadenas minoristas foráneas y locales de bienes importados y elaborados en China.

    Part 7: Invasions, Rebellions, and the End of Imperial China Part 7 Introduction Pre-Modern Vs

    Part 7: Invasions, Rebellions, and the End of Imperial China Part 7 Introduction Pre-modern vs. Modern When does modern Chinese history begin? Some say during the Opium War, the late 1830s and 1840s. Others date modern history from 1919 and the May Fourth Movement. In this course we take the 18th century, when the Qing was at its height, to begin modern Chinese history. Considering that modern history bears some relation to the present, what events signified the beginning of that period? In Europe, historians often chose 1789, the French Revolution. The signifying events, the transitional events, for China begin with its transition from empire to nation-state, with population growth, with the inclusion of Xinjiang and Tibet during the Qianlong reign, and with the challenges of maintaining unity in a multi-ethnic population. Encounter with the West In the 19th century this evolving state ran head-on into the mobile, militarized nation of Great Britain, the likes of which it has never seen before. This encounter was nothing like the visits from Jesuit missionaries (footnote 129 on page 208) or Lord Macartney (page 253). It challenged all the principles of imperial rule. Foreign Enterprise Today’s Chinese economy has its roots in the Sino-foreign enterprises born during these early encounters. Opium was one of its main enterprises. Christianity was a kind of enterprise. These enterprises combined to weaken and humiliate the Qing. As would be said of a later time, these foreign insults were a “disease of the skin.”165 It was the Taiping Rebellion that struck at the heart.

This tone makes sense given the opportunities that China has already given England concerning trade, and the desire on the part of China to not have England take advantage of their generous nature.” “Tokugawa Iemitsu would naturally use a stern tone and a very specific numerical presentation of the Closed Country Edicts of 1635 and 1639 because as a political leader, he would want his people to have unambiguous direction on something as serious to him as their interaction with Catholic priests.” C 26: Transition and Change in East Asia What do you remember about China?
