CO_2干扰对红松和长白赤松幼苗土壤微生物量C的影响

以不同浓度CO2(700、500μm o l/m o l)处理的红松和长白赤松幼苗土壤为研究对象,在2003年的7~9月的中旬采样,对0~10 cm层土壤微生物生物量C受高浓度CO2影响进行了研究。结果表明,700μm o l/m o l CO2对红松幼苗土壤微生物生物量C起着极显著(p<0.01)抑制效应,其作用大于500μm o l/m o l CO2处理;受高浓度CO2处理的长白赤松幼苗土壤微生物生物量C表现出了与红松土壤微生物生物量C相似的变化规律。此外,500μm o l/m o l CO2条件对红松和长白赤松幼苗土壤微生物生物量C的影响存在着不稳定性。

到达中国陆面的生物有效紫外线辐射强度分布

随着大气臭氧层的日趋变薄,估算到达陆面的太阳紫外线辐射变化,评估对人体健康的影响日趋成为环境健康研究的一个重要课题。基于DISORT辐射传输模型,从生物健康效应的角度提出了估算陆面有效紫外线辐射强度的方法,并采用LibRadtran软件包UVSPEC模型以及GIS空间分析技术模拟了2000年1月和7月到达中国陆面的生物有效紫外线辐射强度空间分布,讨论了臭氧、云量、地表反照率等因素对陆面生物有效紫外线辐射强度的影响,研究了基于云量、海拔数据修正陆面紫外线辐射的方法。另外,还系统分析了2000年1月、7月我国陆面生物有效紫外线辐射强度的空间分布特征,1月份辐射强度是低纬度较高,而7月份是中高纬度较高。UVA和UVB陆面辐射强度分布明显不同,特别是7月份,UVB辐射强度的高值区域较UVA明显偏向低纬度地区。UVB的生物有效辐射强度大约是UVA的6倍。

Electrochemical characteristics of mediated laccase-catalysis and electrochemical detection of environmental pollutants

Laccase has been immobilized on the carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode surface by adsorption. As-prepared laccase retains good electrocatalytic activity to oxygen reduction by using 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) as the mediator. It can be used as a biosensor for the determination of catechol with broad linear range.

Alternate assemblies of polyelectrolyte functionalized carbon nanotubes and platinum nanoparticles as tunable electrocatalysts for dioxygen reduction

A novel method based on electrostatic layer-by-layer self-assembly (LBL) technique for alternate assemblies of polyelectrolyte functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) is proposed. The shortened MWNTs can be functionalized with positively charged poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) based on electrostatic interaction. Through electrostatic layer-by-layer assembly, the positively charged PDDA functionalized MWNTs (PDWNTs) and negatively charged citrate-stabilized PtNPs were alternately assembled on a 3-mercaptopropanesulfonic sodium (NIPS) modified gold electrode and also on other negatively charged surface, e.g. quartz slide and indium-tin-oxide (ITO) plate, directly forming the three-dimensional (3D) nanostructured materials. This is a very general and powerful technique for the assembling three-dimensional nanostructured materials containing carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nanoparticles. Thus prepared multilayer films were characterized by ultraviolet-visiblenear-infrared spectroscopy (UV-vis-NIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Regular growth of the mutilayer films is monitored by UV-vis-NIR.

用NMR方法研究中药山莨菪碱与磷脂脂质体的相互作用

用核磁共振(NMR)方法研究了中药山莨菪碱(anisodamine)与结构不同的3种磷脂脂质体相互作用,二棕榈酰磷脂酰胆碱(DPPC)极性基团空阻较大,山莨菪碱三级胺端不能与P-O键作用,仍处于水相,苯环只能嵌入到甘油骨架C-2附近。二棕榈酰磷脂酸(DPPA)极性头空间位阻较小,山莨菪碱苯环可以直接插入到靠近脂酰链γ-次甲基的位置,而三级胺端与极性头发生静电作用,并且药物可以提高DPPA脂质体的流动性。山莨菪碱通过三级胺端与鞘磷脂(SPM)极性头静电作用较强,而苯环位于SPM脂双层亲水和疏水区界面。药物对3种磷脂双层结构影响很小。

Polypyrrole (PPy) film is synthesized by anodic polymerization of pyrrole onto the surface of a platinum electrode in the presence of toluene-p-sulfonate and the film is used for the controlled release of the neurotransmitter, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP).

Molecular cloning and characterization of peroxiredoxin 6 from Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis

Peroxiredoxin is a superfamily of antioxidative proteins that play important roles in protecting organisms against the toxicity of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, the full-length cDNA encoding peroxiredoxin 6 (designated EsPrx6) was cloned from Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis by using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) approaches. The full-length cDNA of EsPrx6 was of 1076 bp, containing a 5' untranslated region (UTR) of 69 bp, a 3' UTR of 347 bp with a poly (A) tail, and an open reading frame (ORF) of 660 bp encoding a polypeptide of 219 amino acids with the predicted molecular weight of 24 kDa. The conserved Prx domain, AhpC domain and the signature of peroxidase catalytic center identified in EsPrx6 strongly suggested that EsPrx6 belonged to the 1-Cys Prx subgroup. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR was employed to assess the mRNA expression of EsPrx6 in various tissues and its temporal expression in haemocytes of crabs challenged with Listonella anguillarum. The mRNA transcript of EsPrx6 could be detected in all the examined tissues with highest expression level in hepatopancreas. The expression level of EsPrx6 in haemocytes was down-regulated after bacterial challenge and significantly decreased compared to the control group at 12 h. As time progressed, the expression level began to increase but did not recover to the original level during the experiment. The results suggested the involvement of EsPrx6 in responses against bacterial infection and further highlighted its functional importance in the immune system of E sinensis. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Growth, survival and immune activity of scallops, Chlamys farreri Jones et Preston, compared between suspended and bottom culture in Haizhou Bay, China

We examined the growth, survival and immune response of the scallop, Chlamys farreri, during a 1-year period in deep water of Haizhou Bay. Scallops were cultured using two methods: (1) in lantern nets at a 5 m depth and (2) in a bottom culture system (sleeves) on the seabed at about a 25 m depth. Shell heights, meat dry weight and immune activities in the haemolymph (superoxide dismutase and myeloperoxidase) were measured bimonthly or quarterly from July 2007 to June 2008. Survival was measured at the end of the study and environmental parameters in the experimental layers were monitored during the experiment. The growth and immune activities of scallops were lower when the water temperature was high, which was consistent with the main mortality occurring in summer. The growth and immunity of scallops were higher in the suspended culture than in the bottom culture during the experiment, with the exception of shell growth during the last study period. Survival of scallops in the suspended culture (54.6 +/- 12.3%) was significantly lower than that in the bottom culture (86.8 +/- 3.5%) at the end of this study. We conclude from our results that the high mortality of C. farreri can be prevented by culturing them in a bottom culture system before November of the first year, and then transferring them to a suspended culture to improve scallop production.

万山汞矿区地表与大气界面间汞交换通量研究

采用动力学通量箱与高时间分辨率大气自动测汞仪联用技术对万山汞矿区不同季节、不同地表与大气界面间汞交换通量和大气汞含量进行了测定. 结果显示,受人为活动和地表强烈释汞的影响,万山地区大气汞含量高出背景区1～3 个数量级,在冶炼厂附近平均值可达1 10118 ng/ m3 ,最低平均值达1718 ng/ m3 ,显示万山汞矿区已遭受较严重的大气汞污染. 万山汞矿区土壤与大气界面汞交换非常强烈,土壤向大气的释汞通量最高可达27 827 ng/ (m2·h) ,大气汞干沉降通量最高可达9 434ng/ (m2·h) . 万山汞矿区土壤与大气汞交换通量主要受光照强度、大气汞含量影响. 光照在土壤释汞过程中起促进作用,而较高的大气汞含量则抑制了土壤向大气的释放,并导致大气汞强烈的干沉降. 不同的地表类型对地表释汞影响较大,植被覆盖土壤释汞通量显著低于无植被覆盖地区,而冶炼后的矿渣堆则成为大气汞的净源.
