3种不同功效医药品活性成分对发光菌的毒性作用

因药物活性成分的环境残留引发的风险和健康问题成为公众关注的焦点。本文以海洋发光细菌为受试生物,研究了布洛芬、阿奇霉素、三氯生3种医药品的单一和联合毒性作用。结果表明,3种医药品对发光菌的EC_(50)值分别为:36.5×10~(-5)、30.26×10~(-5)和0.0155×10~(-5)mol·L~(-1);二元及多元混合体系对发光菌的EC_(50)值高于单一体系的毒性作用,进一步采用相加指数法(AI)、毒性单位法(TU)、混合毒性指数法(MTI)评价3种医药品多元体系的联合毒性的作用类型,取得了一致的评价结果。3种医药品的二元混合体系及多元混合体系的作用类型均属于拮抗作用,但拮抗作用的强弱不同,这与医药品不同药效官能团结构可影响其对微生物生理生化反应过程有关。研究3种医药品对发光菌急性毒性作用可为该类新型污染物的环境风险评价提供基础数据。

Seasonal and interannual variation of soil respiration in four vegetation types in the loess hilly region北大核心CSCD

Soit carbon (C) stock is the largest C pool in terrestrial ecosystems, and the emission of CO2 through soil respiration contributes to the majority of soil C expenditure and atmospheric C. Soil respiration is also one of the major processes controlling the C budget of terrestrial ecosystems. A slight change in soil CO2 emission might cause drastic variations in global C balance. Therefore, it is of great significance to investigate the characteristics of soil respiration of soils growing different types of vegetation over a long period, and determine its relationship with variables such as soil temperature and moisture. The rate of soil respiration was measured each month in the growing seasons (from April to October) of 2011, 2013, and 2014 using the Li-8100 CO2 flux measurement system in the central Loess Plateau. Four types of vegetation (Quercus liaotungensis, Platycladus orientalis, Robinia pseudoacacia, and a natural shrub) were chosen for the periodical measurements. A permanent sample plot was established for each type of vegetation, and five polyvinyl chloride (PVC) collars were placed in each plot for the measurements. The temperature and water content of the soil in the upper 12 cm near the collar were measured using a digital soil temperature probe and a TDR 200 soil moisture meter at the same time when the soil respiration was measured. The soil respiration rates were fitted to the soil temperature and moisture with an exponential function, power function, linear function, and an equation combining the two variables. The results showed that: (1) the seasonal variation in the rates of soil respiration in the soils growing the four types of vegetation were almost the same, and were lower in the earlier period and then increased to high levels in the middle and later periods; (2) the rates of soil respiration in the same month varied with the type of vegetation grown, and were in the descending order: Q. liaotungensis > P. orientalis > shrub > R. pseudoacacia; (3) the average values of the rates of soil respiration in 2011, 2013, and 2014 were 2.77, 3.48, and 5.08 μmol m-2 s-1, respectively. The variation in soil respiration was higher across the three years than the variation for the types of vegetation grown; and (4) the rate of soil respiration was positively correlated to soil temperature and moisture for all the types of vegetation. A better fit was obtained by using the equation that included both the variables, soil temperature and moisture, than by an equation that included a single factor. Our results suggested that both seasonal and inter-annual variations of soil respiration occurred in the soils growing the four types of vegetation in the region. The temperature and water content of soils are the major regulating factors, and soil respiration in the Loess Plateau is more greatly affected by environment factors than by the type of vegetation. © 2018 Science Press.

纳米银和PVP包被纳米银对HepG2细胞遗传毒性的比较研究

为了探讨纳米银对HepG2细胞DNA损伤、染色体畸变等遗传毒性指标的影响,以期为纳米银体外遗传毒性评价提供参考依据,本文采用2种纳米银材料(20 nm-PVP包被纳米银、20 nm-无包被纳米银),分别以20μg·mL~(-1)、40μg·mL~(-1)、80μg·mL~(-1)、160μg·mL~(-1)的剂量对HepG2细胞染毒24 h,用Hoechst-33258染色法检测细胞凋亡,彗星实验检测DNA损伤,胞质分裂阻滞微核细胞组学试验法检测染色体畸变。结果表明,20 nm Ag NPs组在160μg·mL~(-1)时引起细胞凋亡数显著增多(P0.05);20 nm PVP-Ag NPs组在80μg·mL~(-1)和160μg·mL~(-1)剂量组中细胞凋亡数显著增多(P0.01)。2种纳米银引起HepG2细胞发生细胞凋亡,并呈剂量效应关系。彗星试验结果表明,20 nm Ag NPs和20 nm PVP-Ag NPs在40μg·mL~(-1)、80μg·mL~(-1)、160μg·mL~(-1)剂量组中,Olive尾矩、尾长和尾部DNA百分比与空白对照组相比均有显著差异(P0.05)。2种纳米银对HepG2细胞DNA损伤程度为:20 nm Ag NPs20 nm PVP-Ag NPs。胞质分裂阻滞微核细胞组学试验结果表明,2种纳米银均不会引起核质桥数发生明显改变(P0.05),20 nm Ag NPs在高染毒剂量下引起微核总数、I型微核、II型微核、核芽数明显升高(P0.05);20 nm PVP-Ag NPs在各染毒剂量下均会引起微核总数及I型微核数量升高(P0.01),II型微核数在160μg·mL~(-1)剂量下升高明显(P0.01),剂量大于20μg·mL~(-1)时核芽数升高(P0.01)。20 nm PVP-Ag NPs对细胞核的影响大于20 nm Ag NPs(P0.05)。总之,2种纳米银材料均会引起HepG2细胞DNA损伤及染色体畸变等遗传毒性效应的改变,无包被纳米银比PVP包被纳米银更容易引起DNA损伤,PVP包被纳米银比无包被纳米银更容易引起细胞染色体畸变相关效应;2种材料对HepG2细胞的损伤存在浓度-效应关系,浓度越高遗传毒性损伤越严重。     

Electro-assisted CNTs/ceramic flat sheet ultrafiltration membrane for enhanced antifouling and separation performance

• A stable and electroconductive CNTs/ceramic membrane was fabricated. • The membrane with the electro-assistance exhibited optimal fouling mitigation. • The removal efficiency was improved by the -2.0 V electro-assistance. • Electro-assisted filtration is energy-saving than that of commercial membrane. Ultrafiltration is employed as an important process for water treatment and reuse, which is of great significance to alleviate the shortage of water resources. However, it suffers from severe membrane fouling and the trade-off between selectivity and permeability. In this work, a CNTs/ceramic flat sheet ultrafiltration membrane coupled with electro-assistance was developed for improving the antifouling and separation performance. The CNTs/ceramic flat sheet membrane was fabricated by coating cross-linked CNTs on ceramic membrane, featuring a good electroconductivity of 764.75 S/m. In the filtration of natural water, the permeate flux of the membrane with the cell voltage of -2.0 V was 1.8 times higher than that of the membrane without electro-assistance and 5.7-fold greater than that of the PVDF commercial membrane. Benefiting from the electro-assistance, the removal efficiency of the typical antibiotics was improved by 50%. Furthermore, the electro-assisted membrane filtration process showed 70% reduction in energy consumption compared with the filtration process of the commercial membrane. This work offers a feasible approach for membrane fouling mitigation and effluent quality improvement and suggests that the electro-assisted CNTs/ceramic membrane filtration process has great potential in the application of water treatment.

Multiple effects of nitrate amendment on the transport, transformation and bioavailability of antimony in a paddy soil-rice plant system

Nitrate (NO₃^?) is known to be actively involved in the processes of mineralization and heavy metal transformation; however, it is unclear whether and how it affects the bioavailability of antimony (Sb) in paddy soils and subsequent Sb accumulation in rice. Here, the effects of NO₃^? on Sb transformation in soil-rice system were investigated with pot experiments over the entire growth period. Results demonstrated that NO₃^? reduced Sb accumulation in brown rice by 15.6% compared to that in the control. After amendment with NO₃^?, the Sb content in rice plants increased initially and then gradually decreased (in roots by 46.1%). During the first 15 days, the soil pH increased, the oxidation of Sb(III) and sulfides was promoted, but the reduction of iron oxide minerals was inhibited, resulting in the release of adsorbed and organic-bound Sb from soil. The microbial arsenite-oxidizing marker gene aoxB played an important role in Sb(III) oxidation. From days 15 to 45, after NO₃^? was partially consumed, the soil pH decreased, and the reductive dissolution of Fe(III)-bearing minerals was enhanced; consequently, iron oxide-bound Sb was transformed into adsorbed and dissolved Sb species. After day 45, NO₃^? was completely reduced, Sb(V) was evidently reduced to Sb(III), and green rust was generated gradually. Thus, the available Sb decreased due to its enhanced affinity for iron oxides. Moreover, NO₃^? inhibited the reductive dissolution of iron minerals, which ultimately caused low Sb availability. Therefore, NO₃^? can chemically and biologically reduce the Sb availability in paddy soils and alleviate Sb accumulation in rice. This study provides a potential strategy for decreasing Sb accumulation in rice in the Sb-contaminated sites.

Simulating dynamics of managed monsoon evergreen broad-leaved forest in south China

The forest succession model FORDYN is developed based on TREEDEV model. TREEDEV is a process-based tree growth model, that calculates tree growth based on carbon and nitrogen balance, and is calculated using on the photo-production of leaves, respiration, nitrogen content of all organisms and that in soil, and other losses due to respiration, litter and renewal of stems, branches, leaves and roots. In the FORDYN model succession is divided into three phases called early, middle and late succession, and the transition between these three succession phases is distinguished by a difference in leaf area index. As a verification of the model we used the characteristics and available data of a monsoon evergreen broad-leaved forest in Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve (DHS-BR). The model was validated with natural forest data. In addition, a sensitivity analysis was performed in which 30 independent variables were varied and analyzed in connection with their influence on 16 dependent variables describing forest conditions. The simulation results describe the changes in total biomass, carbon and nitrogen change in plant–litter–soil system of an undisturbed monsoon evergreen broad-leaved forest during succession. We compared these findings with simulation in which different logging management strategies were used. The results show that having a longer logging cycle, delaying the first logging time and a smaller logging fraction the scenario can contribute to a sustainable forest development, while still having a positive economic yield.
