美国和五大湖双边共同关注区域的白肚燕(双色树燕)雏鸟的有机污染状况

白肚燕，又名双色树燕，栖居于五大湖流域中27个双边共同关注区域(AOCs)，从2010年到2014年对其进行了污染物暴露风险评估，以协助管理者和监管者评估五大湖AOCs的污染状况。本文比较了AOCs和附近非AOCs雏鸟体内污染物浓度的差异。AOCs白肚燕雏鸟尸体中多氯联苯(PCB)和多溴联苯醚的含量分别为30%和33%，低于非AOCs的平均浓度。AOCs白肚燕雏鸟胃含物中多环芳烃(PAH)浓度和血浆中全氟化合物浓度分别为67%和64%，也低于非AOCs的平均浓度。但是与已有生殖效应记载的高PCB污染区相比，有些AOCs雏鸟尸体内的PCBs浓度只是存在小幅升高。一些AOCs食物中PAHs的浓度足够高以致引起可测量的生理响应。在AOCs中，全氟化合物全氟辛烷磺酸在血浆中的最高浓度出现在Raisin河(密歇根州，美国；几何平均数330 ng/mL)，但远低于预估毒性的参考值(1 700 ng/mL)。之前有研究报道雏鸟胃含物中PAH和PCB的浓度以及尸体中PCBs的含量与沉积物中污染物的含量显著相关，从而可加强白肚燕在评估沉积物污染生物有效性方面的应用。

蒽是典型的多环芳烃类环境污染物,属于美国EPA优先控制的16种多环芳烃类化合物,其在高盐环境下的生物降解备受关注.本研究从某石油污染的高盐土壤中成功筛选出了1株高效降解蒽的菌株,经过对其生理生化特征和16S rDNA序列分析,初步鉴定并命名该菌株为Martelella sp.AD-3.该菌株在0.1%～10%的盐度和6.0～10.0的pH范围内,均能够降解蒽.其生长和降解蒽的优化条件是:蒽初始浓度25 mg·L-1、温度30℃、pH值9.0和盐度3%,在优化条件下培养6 d,蒽的降解率可达到94.6%.根据已报道的双加氧酶α亚基的同源性设计简并引物,通过巢式PCR扩增获得双加氧酶基因的部分序列307 bp(GenBank:JF823991.1),与海杆菌属Marinobacter sp.NCE312(AF295033)菌株萘双加氧酶大亚基的部分氨基酸序列同源性最高为95%.     

辽宁大伙房水库沉积物中有机氯农药和多氯联苯的分布、来源及风险评价

利用GC-MS测定24个大伙房水库表层沉积物中有机氯农药和多氯联苯含量,主要揭示水库沉积物中有机氯农药和多氯联苯的残留特征.结果表明,HCHs的含量为0.70～3.48 ng.g-1,均值为（1.58±0.71）ng.g-1;DDTs的含量为0.85～4.94ng.g-1,均值为（1.94±0.82）ng.g-1;PCBs的含量为1.46～3.52 ng.g-1,均值为（2.42±0.64）ng.g-1.γ-HCH、β-HCH、DDE、DDT和PCB28百分含量较高.高百分含量γ-HCH和DDT表明目前仍在使用的林丹和工业滴滴涕产品;β-HCH、DDE和PCB28可能来自土壤中农药和多氯联苯残留.水库上游污染物含量明显高于水库下游,同时污染物高值点主要集中在浑河河口,表明水库上游浑河河流搬运是水库沉积物中污染物的主要输入来源,并影响污染物在沉积物中的分布.生态风险评价结果表明,沉积物中DDTs和γ-HCH存在较高的生态风险;沉积物中PCBs残留尚未对周围环境造成不利影响.     

AF反应器对芳香族化合物反硝化降解特性研究

对羟基联苯在黄河兰州段底泥上的吸附行为

为研究典型有机污染物在黄河兰州段的吸附规律及影响因素,以黄河兰州段的底泥为供试样品,选择对羟基联苯(phydroxy biphenyl,PHB)为代表性有机污染物,采用批量实验法研究了底泥对PHB的吸附动力学和热力学特征及其影响因素.结果表明,黄河兰州段底泥对PHB吸附动力学的最优模型为准二级动力学模型,吸附热力学过程更符合单分子层吸附的Langmuir等温吸附模型(R20.974),在25~45℃温度范围内,PHB在黄河兰州段底泥上的吸附平均自由能(E)在0.913~1.00 k J·mol~(-1)之间,吸附过程中,ΔGθ和ΔHθ均小于0,ΔSθ均大于0,表明黄河兰州段底泥对PHB的吸附过程主要是物理吸附,属于自发放热过程且体系的混乱度是增加的.分析黄河兰州段底泥对PHB吸附影响因素的结果表明,粒径越小,黄河底泥对PHB的吸附量越大;PHB的初始质量浓度越高,黄河底泥对PHB的吸附量越大;当p H在4.23~7.00之间时,吸附量随pH升高而缓慢下降,当pH7.00时,吸附量随pH升高急剧下降,且在pH=10.3附近,吸附量几乎为零;体系中离子强度增大,PHB吸附量增大,但当离子强度到一定值时,由于竞争吸附作用,会抑制底泥对PHB的吸附,造成吸附量的下降.     

The structure of the fire fighting foam surfactant Forafac®1157 and its biological and photolytic transformation products

For several decades, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) has widely been used as a fluorinated surfactant in aqueous film forming foams used as hydrocarbon fuel fire extinguishers. Due to concerns regarding its environmental persistence and toxicological effects, PFOS has recently been replaced by novel fluorinated surfactants such as Forafac®1157, developed by the DuPont company. The major component of Forafac®1157 is a 6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonamide alkylbetaine (6:2 FTAB), and a link between the trade name and the exact chemical structure is presented here to the scientific community for the first time. In the present work, the structure of the 6:2 FTAB was elucidated by ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁹F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Moreover, its major metabolites from blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) and turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) and its photolytic transformation products were identified. Contrary to what has earlier been observed for PFOS, the 6:2 FTAB was extensively metabolized by blue mussel and turbot exposed to Forafac®1157. The major metabolite was a deacetylated betaine species, from which mono- and di-demethylated metabolites also were formed. Another abundant metabolite was the 6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonamide. In another experiment, Forafac®1157 was subjected to UV-light induced photolysis. The experimental conditions aimed to simulate Arctic conditions and the deacetylated species was again the primary transformation product of 6:2 FTAB. A 6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonamide was also formed along with a non-identified transformation product. The environmental presence of most of the metabolites and transformation products was qualitatively demonstrated by analysis of soil samples taken in close proximity to an airport fire training facility.     

Effects of biosurfactants on assays of PCB congeners in transgenic arabidopsis plants carrying a recombinant guinea pig AhR-mediated GUS reporter gene expression system

The transgenic Arabidopsis plants carrying a recombinant guinea pig (g) aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)-mediated β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene expression system were generated for assays of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners. The selected transgenic Arabidopsis plant XgD2V11-6 exhibited a correlation between uptake of PCB126 and PCB126-induced GUS activity. Also, the plants showed induced GUS activity towards the supplemental indole 3-acetic acid (IAA). Thus, the GUS assay may reflect induction by both endogenous and exogenous AhR ligands. When biosurfactants, MEL-B, produced in the culture of yeast isolated from plants were used for assays of PCB congeners in the transgenic Arabidopsis plants, they showed marked PCB126 dose-dependent and toxic equivalency factor (TEF) dependent GUS activities. The effects of biosurfactants were clearer when the plants were cultivated on soils containing PCB congeners for 7 days as compared with on soils for 3 days as well as in the medium for 3 days. Threfore, it was estimated that biosurfactants form micellae with PCB congeners, which are easily uptaken by the plants in a mode of passive diffusion, transport into the aerial parts and then induce GUS activity.
