Identification of a novel β0 - thalassaemia mutation in a greek family and subsequent prenatal diagnosis

We present a case in which a Greek couple was considered not to be at risk of having children with homozygous β-thalassaemia, an assessment based largely on the father's belief that he carried α-thalassaemia. After their first child was diagnosed with homozygous β-thalassaemia, the case was re-assessed and both parents were shown to have the haematological profile of β-thalassaemia trait. Screening for the common Mediterranean mutations demonstrated that the mother carries the IVS-1 nt 110 G→A β⁺ -thalassaemia mutation. Direct nucleotide sequencing of PCR-amplified DNA revealed that the father carries a novel β⁰-thalassaemia mutation, frameshift codons 9/10 (+T). The couple's second pregnancy was terminated after prenatal testing revealed that the fetus had inherited both parental mutations. This case illustrates the need to confirm the carrier status of individuals prior to assessing their genetic risks, and highlights the importance of being able to identify rare or novel β-thalassaemia mutations.     

含酚废水的Fenton试剂和光助 Fenton试剂降解研究

研究了在Fenton试剂和光助Fenton试剂作用下，苯酚降解的反应条件。研究结果表明。反应的时间、初始pH值、H2O2和Fe^2＋浓度对Fenton反应都有影响。常温下，当H2O2浓度为20mmol／L，Fe^2＋浓度为4mmol／L时，pH为1，反应时间为30min时，苯酚的转化率达到98％，矿化率达到65％以上。光助Fenton法可以大幅度提高含酚废水的降解率。     

北京部分地区大气PM10中多环芳烃的季节性变化

采集了北京城乡结合部和郊区 2003 年 4 个季节大气 PM10样品,用超声萃取-GC/MS 技术分析了其多环芳烃的组成.结果表明,17 种母核多环芳烃总量在8.46~296.57ng/m3之间,城乡结合部的浓度是郊区的1.02~1.58倍.PAHs总量的季节性变化与采样时环境温度显示出较好的负相关性,即冬季>秋季>春季>夏季.郊区和城乡结合部冬季 PAHs 总量分别是夏季的 22.25 倍和 34.41 倍,显示了燃煤取暖对北京冬季大气 PAHs 污染的贡献极为显著.运用多种多环芳烃比值综合判断,北京大气 PM10中 PAHs 主要以燃煤和机动车尾气混合来源为主,石油源和木材燃烧源的贡献较小.     

Fabricating Fe3O4-schwertmannite as a Z-scheme photocatalyst with excellent photocatalysis-Fenton reaction and recyclability

Here we reported an effective method to solve the rate-limiting steps, such as the reduction of Fe³⁺ to Fe²⁺ and an invalid decomposition of H₂O₂ in a conventional Fenton-like reaction. A magnetic heterogeneous photocatalyst, Fe₃O₄-schwertmannite (Fe₃O₄-sch) was successfully developed by adding Fe₃O₄ in the formation process of schwertmannite. Fe₃O₄-sch shows excellent electrons transfer ability and high utilization efficiency of H₂O₂ (98.5%). The catalytic activity of Fe₃O₄-sch was studied through the degradation of phenol in the heterogeneous photo-Fenton process. Phenol degradation at a wide pH (3 - 9) was up to 98% within 6 min under visible light illumination with the Fe₃O₄-sch as heterogeneous Fenton catalyst, which was higher than that using pure schwertmannite or Fe₃O₄. The excellent photocatalytic performance of Fe₃O₄-sch is ascribed to the effective recycling between Fe³⁺ and Fe²⁺ by the photo-generated electron, and also profit from the formation of the “Z-Scheme” system. According to the relevant data, photocatalytic mechanism of Fe₃O₄-sch for degrading phenol was proposed. This study not only provides an efficient way of enhancing heterogeneous Fenton reaction, but also gives potential application for iron oxyhydroxysulfate mineral.

为同时去除水溶液中的Cd（Ⅱ）和As（Ⅴ），采用羟基铁柱撑改性获得改性蒙脱石，并深入研究了其吸附性能和吸附机理.同时，采用BET比表面积、SEM、XRD和XPS等手段分析了改性前后蒙脱石的结构特征；采用批实验分别研究了改性蒙脱石对水体中Cd（Ⅱ）和As（Ⅴ）的吸附动力学和热力学特征，并探讨了Cd（Ⅱ）-As（Ⅴ）复合体系中镉、砷相互作用对改性蒙脱石等温吸附镉、砷的影响.结果表明，改性蒙脱石的比表面积较改性前增加了28.2%，XPS测试结果表明改性蒙脱石成功引入羟基铁.改性蒙脱石单一吸附Cd（Ⅱ）和As（Ⅴ）的最优初始pH分别为6.5和5.5，且25℃时分别在10 h和5 h内达到吸附平衡，吸附过程均符合准二级动力学方程；Langmuir等温吸附模型能更好地描述改性蒙脱石对Cd（Ⅱ）的吸附，最大吸附量为21.36 mg·g^-1，该吸附过程是离子交换和化学络合共同作用的结果；Freundlich等温吸附模型能更好地解释改性蒙脱石对As（Ⅴ）的吸附，最大吸附量为11.45 mg·g^-1，该吸附过程是化学络合作用的结果（改性剂投加量均为2 g·L^-1）.在Cd（Ⅱ）-As（Ⅴ）复合体系中，镉、砷之间存在相互作用，pH为5.5时，吸附量高于改性蒙脱石对单一Cd（Ⅱ）和As（Ⅴ）的吸附量，分别增加了14.4%和23.7%，表明合成的羟基铁柱撑蒙脱石对镉、砷复合污染农田具有同时去除Cd（Ⅱ）和As（Ⅴ）的修复潜力.
