    When using nondestructive acoustic impulse response method to assess physical qualities of eggs and check cracks of eggshell, it can be found that there are lots of factors affecting dominant resonant frequency, such as eggshell strength, egg-shaped index, egg weight, and egg specific gravity. Furthermore, the relationship among these factors and dominant resonant frequency is non-linear and it is difficult to analyze the relationship among them through conventional regression method. In the paper, the grey relative coefficient among the dominant frequency and affecting factors of eggs are calculated with the grey relative theory. As shown in the results, the order of grey relative degree is as follows: eggshell strength, egg weight, egg-shaped index, and egg specific gravity. From the results, conclusion can be drawn that eggshell strength is the first important affecting factor, and the egg weight is the second, while the factor of egg specific gravity only affects the dominant resonant frequency slightly. In brief, the presented grey relative theory can provide a new way for comprehensive analysis of the relationship among dominant frequency and affecting factors.

    Carboxymethy chitosan was oxidatively degraded with H2O2. The effects of reaction time and concentration of H2O2 on the degradation were studied. Viscosity determination and modified Schales’ procedure were applied to assay the molecular weights of degraded carboxymethyl chitosan. Antioxidant activity of degraded carboxymethy chitosan was evaluated as hy- droxyl radical scavenger by flow injection chemoluminescence technology. The results showed that the molecular weights of degraded products would be a relative constant value with the increase of H2O2 concentration. Carboxymethyl chitosan with molecular weight of about 1100 would be obtained when the H2O2 concentration is higher than 1.3mol/L and reaction time is longer than 16h. All degraded carboxymethyl chitosans show certain hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, but the antioxidant activity is stronger at lower molecular weight.

    The effects of magnetic treatment on the biomass and excreting of exo-polysaccharides(EPS) of Spirulina were studied systematically. It proved that a lower magnetic intensity(≤40kA/m) is good for improving the biomass of Spirulina but the growth rate restrained as magnetic intensity higher than 40kA/m. 24kA/m is the optimum condition for improving the growth rate and the maximum-cell-concentration. The higher the magnetic intensity, the stronger the restraint is when the magnetic intensity is higher than 80kA/m. The growth stops almost when the magnetic intensity is higher than 400kA/m. Although the growth of Spirulina is restrained at the higher intensity magnetic treatment, it could stimulate the excretion of EPS obviously. It was also found that the optimum magnetic effect takes place in logarithmic growth phase.
