Trisomy 7 in chorionic villi: Follow-up studies of pregnancy,normal child,and placental clonal anomalies

Cytogenetic study of chorionic villi sampled because of advanced maternal age revealed, after overnight culture, an apparently non-mosaic trisomy 7. Amniocentesis showed exclusively normal mitoses, and the pregnancy continued normally. One hundred mitoses from cord blood of the normal newborn revealed a non-mosaic 46,XX complement. No cells with a proven trisomy 7 were found in cultures from either of two biopsies of the morphologically normal placenta, but the peripheral biopsy showed in multiple cultures an abnormal clone: 47,XX, + 20,-2,-21, + t(2;21)(p13;q22). To our knowledge, this is the first case of non-mosaic trisomy 7 detected on CVS which has had follow-up studies of amniotic fluid, cord blood, and term placenta.

长江中下游海相三叠系膏盐层与铜(金)、铁矿床

长江中下游海相三叠系膏盖层中含有很大比例的大、中型铜（金）、铁、多金属矿床。膏盐层不仅是铜（金）、铁矿床的主要赋矿层位之一，而且是部分成矿金属的矿源层；膏盐层还为燕山期岩浆提供部分钠质、钾质及挥发组分，影响岩浆演化的方向，改变了含矿流体的性质；另外，从岩体和矿床中金属硫化物中流同位素重硫成分的增高，说明在成者、成矿过程中，膏盐层是硫的供应者之一。因此膏盐层与铜（金）、铁、多金属矿床之间存在着特殊的成因联系。     

铜、锌和锰抑制月形藻生长的毒性效应

运用评价化学品毒性藻类测试的标准实验方法，得到铜、锌和锰对月形藻生长的最小无显著差异浓度（LNOEC）分别为31.8μg/L、16.4μg/L和2.7mg/L，抑制月形藻生长的96h半效应浓度（96h-EC50)分别为199.5μg/L、38.0μg/L和12.6mg/L。实验结果表明无论从LNOEC还是从96h-EC50考虑，都证明抑制月形藻生长的毒性由大到小的顺序是锌＞铜＞锰。此结果对铜抑制藻类生长的毒性远远大于锌的毒性这一人们普遍认同的观点构成挑战。月形藻细胞壁表面可能含有较少的硫代基团但包含较多与锌有很强结合能力的官能团可能是导致月形藻对铜的敏感性弱而对锌敏感性强的主要原因。

不同生长期的Pseudomonas putida 5-x细胞对工业废水中Cu~(2+)的吸附

研究了不同生长阶段的Cu2 + 吸附细菌Pseudomonasputida 5 x对Cu2 + 的吸附容量 .结果表明在低硫培养基中 ,当P putida 5 x细胞生长刚进入对数生长期时 ,单位细胞对Cu2 + 的吸附溶量最低 .而当生长进入稳定生长期的后期或死亡期的早期时 ,单位细胞对Cu2 + 的吸附量最大 .实验结果还表明 ,高浓度的Cu2 + 对对数期细胞的吸附能力有一定的抑制 ,而对死亡期的细胞影响较小 .早期研究已证明细胞对重金属离子的吸附和细胞表面某些对重金属离子具有亲和性的功能基团 (如某些膜蛋白及羰基化合物 )有关 .利用透视电子显微镜观察了不同生长阶段的细胞表面结构及对铜离子的吸附效果 ,发现生长后期细胞表面吸附有较多的Cu2 + ,这表明生长后期的细胞表面可能含有较多的这类功能基团     

Methods for project-based mechanisms (JI/CDM)—relevance of IPCC inventory guidelines

A baseline for a project consists of estimates of annual emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) for a given time period without implementing the project. A general three-step process for determining the baseline is suggested. The emission reduction of the project is given by the difference between the baseline and the monitored annual emissions. A preferred method, direct measurement of the emission reduction, is possible for some types of projects. Methods for estimating the annual baseline emissions are not necessary for the latter category, and a definition of this project category is suggested. IPCC Guidelines for National GHG Inventories categorise the emission sources so that only direct emissions from consumption of fuel and feedstock are calculated. There are thus no emission factors for indirect emissions (e.g. electricity consumption or km transported) or emission factors that depend on technology only, independent of consumption of fuel and feedstock. Technology-dependent emission factors may thus need to be developed for estimating indirect emissions and multi-project baselines. Consistency should be sought with the IPCC Guidelines when estimating annual baseline emissions and in monitoring project emissions to ensure comparability with the National Inventories.     

Enhanced cyanogen chloride formation after UV/PS and UV/H2O2 pre-oxidation and chlorination in natural river water

Ultraviolet/persulfate (UV/PS) and Ultraviolet/hydrogen peroxide (UV/H₂O₂) have attracted much attention in recent years as advanced oxidation processes for water treatment. However, it is not all clear how these two methods affect the formation of cyanogen chloride (CNCl) in the subsequent water chlorination process. In this study, it was found that both UV/H₂O₂ and UV/PS pre-oxidation promoted the formation of CNCl in six actual water samples collected from urban rivers. Glycine, uric acid, arginine and histidine were investigated as the model compounds to explore the effects of different methods on the production of CNCl. The results showed that compared with chlorination alone, pre-oxidation by UV/H₂O₂ and UV/PS can reduce the production of CNCl for glycine and uric acid by up to 95% during post-chlorination process. However, they can greatly promote the formation of CNCl for arginine and histidine by up to 120-fold. In a more detailed investigation, pre-oxidation of histidine formed highly reactive intermediates to chlorine, leading to increased CNCl formation and chlorine consumption. The results showed that the precursors of CNCl was altered after pre-oxidation, and need to be re-evaluated.     

泉州湾滩涂沉积物对Cu（Ⅱ）的吸附实验

研究了Cu(Ⅱ)在泉州湾滩涂沉积物上的吸附行为。探讨了pH和温度对吸附作用的影响，测定了其吸附等温线。实验结果表明，常温下Cu(Ⅱ)在泉州湾滩涂沉积物上的吸附平衡时间约需3．5小时；吸附量随pH的升高先增大而后减少，pH=6．0左右时达最大；吸附量随温度的升高而增大；其吸附行为可以很好地用Langmuir型吸附等温线来描述。并在此基础上初步探讨了Cu(Ⅱ)在泉州湾滩涂沉积物上的吸附机理。     

上海市在用车推行I/M制度中检测方法的研究

对在用车实施I/M制度，采用底盘测功机模拟道路工况检测汽车排放污染物，按美国国家环保局（EPA）推荐的方法有3种：瞬态短工总法（IM240）、稳态加速模拟工况法（ASM）和瞬态短工部简易质量分析检测法（VMAS）。根据上海市的试验结果，对上述3种方法的检测精度、设备投资以及运行维护诸方面进行分析比较，阐明上海市采用VMAS方法的依据和应注意的问题，并对应采用的模拟道路工况提出了看法。
