Degradation of ethinyl estradiol (EE2) by nitrifying activated sludge was studied with micro-organisms grown in a reactor with feedback of sludge fed with only a mineral salts medium containing ammonium as the sole energy source. Ammonium was oxidised by this sludge at a rate of 50 mg NH4+ g(-1) DW h(-1). This activated sludge was also capable of degrading EE2 at a maximum rate of 1 microg g(-1) DW h(-1). Using sludge with an insignificant nitrifying capacity of 1 mg NH4+ g(-1) DW h(-1), no degradation of EE2 was detected. Oxidation of EE2 by nitrifying sludge resulted in the formation of hydrophilic compounds, which were not further identified. Most probably degradation by nitrifying sludge results in a loss of estrogenic activity, as hydroxylated derivatives of EE2 are known to have a substantially lower pharmacological activity than EE2. 相似文献

Socioeconomic indicators and the survival of the tropical rainforest of cross river state of Nigeria
An internal household survey of socioeconomic indicators in the Cross River State forest communities showed that basic infrastructural
facilities such as clean water supply, adequate waste disposal system, good roads and electricity are grossly inadequate.
There is a total absence of modern family planning practices in the communities, and population is projected to increase by
44.8% between 2000 and 2015 and 85.4% between 2000 and 2025. The study revealed that about 65% of the population of the rainforest
communities consists of subsistence farmers and power chain operators, and besides the 19% of the Cross River State Tropical
High Forestry (THF) already reported to have been lost to agriculture and plantation between 1972 and 1991, about 9% was lost
between 1991 and 2000. An additional 25% of the THF will be lost by 2025, leaving only 470600 hectares (4706 km2). With 84.1% of community members having an annual income less than $300, the survival potential of the Cross River State
rainforest in the next fifty years is very low, unless an effective forest management programme is encouraged by government
in partnership with all stakeholders. 相似文献
