水体悬移质对重金属吸附规律研究——以长江宜昌段为例

随着长江三峡工程的建设 ,上游来水的流速在此减缓 ,随江水而下的大量泥沙在此沉淀 ,将使坝下 (长江中下游 )水中的悬移质浓度降低、粒径改变 ,从而改变水环境容量。利用长江宜昌江段的周年悬移质样及水样 ,研究了悬移质对重金属 (铜、锌、铅、镉及铬 )的吸附特征。结果表明 ,悬移质对上述金属的吸附可用Freundlich型及Langmuir型等温式较好进行拟合 ;当较高浓度的金属污染物排入江水后 ,在吸附及沉淀的共同作用下 ,浓度明显降低 ;单位悬移质的吸附量随悬移质浓度降低而上升 ,但总吸附量降低 ,从而

Composite electrospun gelatin fiber-alginate gel scaffolds for mechanically robust tissue engineered cornea

A severe shortage of good quality donor cornea is now an international crisis in public health. Alternatives for donor tissue need to be urgently developed to meet the increasing demand for corneal transplantation. Hydrogels have been widely used as scaffolds for corneal tissue regeneration due to their large water content, similar to that of native tissue. However, these hydrogel scaffolds lack the fibrous structure that functions as a load-bearing component in the native tissue, resulting in poor mechanical performance. This work shows that mechanical properties of compliant hydrogels can be substantially enhanced with electrospun nanofiber reinforcement. Electrospun gelatin nanofibers were infiltrated with alginate hydrogels, yielding transparent fiber-reinforced hydrogels. Without prior crosslinking, electrospun gelatin nanofibers improved the tensile elastic modulus of the hydrogels from 78±19. kPa to 450±100. kPa. Stiffer hydrogels, with elastic modulus of 820±210. kPa, were obtained by crosslinking the gelatin fibers with carbodiimide hydrochloride in ethanol before the infiltration process, but at the expense of transparency. The developed fiber-reinforced hydrogels show great promise as mechanically robust scaffolds for corneal tissue engineering applications. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Reynolds number effects on scalar dissipation rate transport and its modeling in turbulent premixed combustion

The effects of turbulent Reynolds number, Ret, on the transport of scalar dissipation rate of reaction progress variable in the context of Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes simulations have been analyzed using three-dimensional simplified chemistry-based direct numerical simulation (DNS) data of freely propagating turbulent premixed flames with different values of Ret. Scaling arguments have been used to explain the effects of Ret on the turbulent transport, scalar-turbulence interaction, and the combined reaction and molecular dissipation terms. Suitable modifications to the models for these terms have been proposed to account for Ret effects, and the model parameters include explicit Ret dependence. These expressions approach expected asymptotic limits for large values of Ret. However, turbulent Reynolds number Ret does not seem to have any major effects on the modeling of the term arising from density variation. Copyright © Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.

人工四倍体鲤鲫的产生

在人工诱导的复合三倍体鲤鱼成熟个体中有极个别个体产出的卵既保留了原有的3套染色体,又能与一套外来精核融合产生四倍体。1997年人工产生的8000多尾鲤鲫四倍体鱼经细胞遗传学研究分析鉴定,结果所有的个体都有4套染色体组,染色体数目在185～210之间,众数为200,四倍体比率为100％。这表明人工复合三倍体鲤鱼的生殖方式十分独特,绝大部分个体的成熟卵可借助于外来精子的激动进行自然雌核发育;而有极个别个体的成熟卵能与外来精子融合产生四倍体个体。四倍体鲤鲫的形态特征像鲫鱼。
