Investigation into the interactions between graphene oxide (GO) and biomolecules is very important for broad applications of GO in bioassay and bioanalysis. In this work, we describe the interactions between double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and GO. We demonstrated that dsDNA can bind to GO forming complexes (dsDNA/GO) in the presence of certain salts, which protects dsDNA from being enzymatically digested. On the other hand, we found that a nonionic surfactant, such as triton X-100, can block the formation of dsDNA/GO complexes, so that the enzymatic digestion of dsDNA is restored. These results lead us to believe that the reason for GO protecting dsDNA from enzymatic digestion is the formation of dsDNA/GO complexes hindering the access of DNA enzymes to dsDNA, rather than direct inactivation of the DNA enzymes.

The autonomous vehicle is a mobile robot integrating multi-sensor navigation and positioning, intelligent decision making and control technology. This paper presents the control system architecture of the autonomous vehicle, called "Intelligent Pioneer", and the path tracking and stability of motion to effectively navigate in unknown environments is discussed. In this approach, a two degree-of-freedom dynamic model is developed to formulate the path-tracking problem in state space format. For controlling the instantaneous path error, traditional controllers have difficulty in guaranteeing performance and stability over a wide range of parameter changes and disturbances. Therefore, a newly developed adaptive-PID controller will be used. By using this approach the flexibility of the vehicle control system will be increased and achieving great advantages. Throughout, we provide examples and results from Intelligent Pioneer and the autonomous vehicle using this approach competed in the
