We conceptualize typical rural communities in China as diversified economic clusters. In normal times, economic actors in these communities rarely cooperate with each other, but are integrated into separate commodity chains. These “diversified clusters”, however, show resilience and flexibility when an external shock—the COVID-19 pandemic—disrupts the spatial connections throughout the existing commodity chains. In this study, we use primary field data collected from one typical rural community in Northern China to show how economic diversity, aided by social networks and space-shrinking technologies, allowed for the vertical commodity chains to be reconfigured temporarily into localized horizontal commodity networks to cope with the emergencies brought about by the pandemic. Our findings suggest that while market integration can create precarity at the individual level, it can also contribute to economic resilience at the community level if it increases economic diversity and compl...

Modeling Lymph Flow and Fluid Exchange with Blood Vessels in Lymph Nodes2015 •
Lymph nodes (LNs) are positioned strategically throughout the body as critical mediators of lymph filtration and immune response. Lymph carries cytokines, antigens, and cells to the downstream LNs, and their effective delivery to the correct location within the LN directly impacts the quality and quantity of immune response. Despite the importance of this system, the flow patterns in LN have never been quantified, in part because experimental characterization is so difficult. To achieve a more quantitative knowledge of LN flow, a computational flow model has been developed based on the mouse popliteal LN, allowing for a parameter sensitivity analysis to identify the important system characteristics. This model suggests that about 90% of the lymph takes a peripheral path via the subcapsular and medullary sinuses, while fluid perfusing deeper into the paracortex is sequestered by parenchymal blood vessels. Fluid absorption by these blood vessels under baseline conditions was driven ma...

PSVI-19 Effect of Processing Methods and Inclusion Level of Dried raw Garlic on in Vitro Fermentation Profile and Methane Production in a Corn Silage-Based DietGarlic (Allium sativum) contains secondary compounds known to modify rumen fermentation parameters and decrease methane (CH4) emissions; however, results from previous research on the effects of garlic-byproduct supplementation are quite variable. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of increasing inclusion levels and processing methods of dried raw garlic on in vitro ruminal fermentation and CH4 production. The experiment was designed as a randomized complete block design, where 24 h incubations were conducted on three separate days, with corn silage and gin trash (80:20, respectively) used as basal substrate. Treatments were arranged in a 3 × 3 factorial with garlic inclusion (0, 2.5, and 5% of the diet) and processing method (freeze-dried, oven-dried, and autoclaved) as factors. Three ruminally cannulated steers were fed ad libitum a corn silage and gin trash diet, for at least 35 d prior to collection of ruminal fluid used as inoculum. Final pH, concentra...
