Developmental abnormalities in Glomeris marginata (Villers 1789) (Myriapoda: Diplopoda): implications for body axis determination in a myriapod

Abnormally developing embryos (ADEs) of the common pill millipede Glomeris marginata have been investigated by means of nuclear staining and mRNA in situ hybridization. It showed that all ADEs represent cases of Duplicitas posterior, which means that the posterior body pole is duplicated. The severity of the duplication ranges from duplicated posterior trunk segments in one specimen to an almost completely duplicated specimen that only shares the very anterior head region. Remarkably, none of the encountered ADEs represents a case of Duplicitas anterior (duplicated anterior pole) or a case of Duplicitas cruciata (cruciate duplication with two anterior and two posterior poles). This observation is discussed in the light of earlier reports on G. marginata ADEs that claim to have found these abnormalities. The lack of any other axial abnormality aside from D. posterior implies that early axis determination in G. marginata, and possibly myriapods in general, underlies the developmental mechanisms that prevent the formation of any other type of axial duplication. It is proposed that the formation of D. posterior-type embryos could be caused by the formation of two instead of only one posterior cumulus early during development.

Simultaneous oxidation of Mn(II) and As(III) on cupric oxide (CuO) promotes As(III) removal at circumneutral pH

Oxidation of Mn(II) or As(III) by molecular oxygen is slow at pH < 9, while they can be catalytically oxidized in the presence of oxide minerals and then removed from contaminated water. However, the reaction mechanisms on simultaneous oxidation of Mn(II) and As(III) on oxide mineral surface and their accompanied removal efficiency remain unclear. This study compared Mn(II) oxidation on four common metal oxides (γ-Al₂O₃, CuO, α-Fe₂O₃ and ZnO) and investigated the simultaneous oxidation and removal of Mn(II) and As(III) through batch experiments and spectroscopic analyses. Among the tested oxides, CuO and α-Fe₂O₃ possess greater catalytic activity toward Mn(II) oxidation. Oxidation and removal kinetics of Mn(II) and As(III) on CuO indicate that O₂ is the terminal electron acceptor for Mn(II) and As(III) oxidation on CuO, and Mn(II) acts as an electron shuttle to promote As(III) oxidation and removal. The main oxidized product of Mn(II) on CuO is high-valent MnO_x species. This newly formed Mn(III) or Mn(IV) phases promote As(III) oxidation on CuO at circumneutral pH 8 and is reduced to Mn(II), which may be then released into solution. This study provides new insights into metal oxide-catalyzed oxidation of pollutants Mn(II) and As(III) and suggests that CuO should be considered as an efficient material to remediate Mn(II) and As(III) contamination.     

土霉素和金霉素在土壤中的吸附–解吸行为

选择黑土和褐土两种典型东北地区土壤为吸附体,采用批平衡实验的方法,研究了四环素类抗生素(TCs)——土霉素(OTC)和金霉素(CTC)在褐土和黑土的吸附和解吸行为。结果表明:OTC和CTC都表现出较强的吸附性,且TCs在黑土上的吸附效果优于褐土。TCs在褐土和黑土上的吸附等温线均能较好地与Freundlich和Langmuir吸附方程相拟合,且Freundlich方程(R~2=0.994)拟合效果优于Langmuir方程(R~2=0.989)。四环素类抗生素的吸附过程是一个由迅速扩散和缓慢扩散组成的双速过程。CTC在褐土和黑土中属于L型等温吸附线;OTC在褐土和黑土中属于S型等温吸附线,表现出协同吸附的特点。OTC在黑土中吸附速率最快,解吸性最好,所以在黑土中具有更强的迁移性,对环境存在着更大的潜在威胁。     

CuxMn1-xCe0.75Zr0.25Oy催化降解甲苯的性能

采用溶胶凝胶法制备了双主金属、双助剂的Cu_xMn_1-xCe_0.75Zr_0.25O_y催化剂,在固定床反应器中评价了催化剂降解甲苯的性能,并采用XRD、H₂-TPR、O₂-TPD和Raman对催化剂进行表征。试验结果表明:催化剂中Cu含量的增加有助于增强Cu-Ce金属之间的相互作用,增加催化剂中的氧空位浓度和晶格氧含量,提高催化剂低温还原性,从而促进催化活性的提高。Cu₁CeZr催化剂降解甲苯活性最好,其完全降解甲苯的温度（T₁₀₀）为220℃,比Mn₁CeZr催化剂低60℃。
