A flow cytometer based protocol for quantitative analysis of bloom-forming cyanobacteria (Microcystis) in lake sediments

A quantitative protocol for the rapid analysis of Microcystis cells and colonies in lake sediment was developed using a modified flow cytometer, the CytoSense. For cell enumeration, diluted sediment samples containing Microcystis were processed with sonication to disintegrate colonies into single cells. An optimized procedure suggested that 5 mg dw (dry weight)/mL dilution combined with 200 W × 2 min sonication yielded the highest counting efficiency. Under the optimized determination conditions, the quantification limit of this protocol was 3.3×10⁴ cells/g dw. For colony analysis, Microcystis were isolated from the sediment by filtration. Colony lengths measured by flow cytometry were similar to those measured by microscopy for the size range of one single cell to almost 400 μupm in length. Moreover, the relationship between colony size and cell number was determined for three Microcystis species, including Microcystis flos-aquae, M. aeruginosa and M. wessenbergii. Regression formulas were used to calculate the cell numbers in different-sized colonies. The developed protocol was applied to field sediment samples from Lake Taihu. The results indicated the potential and applicability of flow cytometry as a tool for the rapid analysis of benthic Microcystis. This study provided a new capability for the high frequency monitoring of benthic overwintering and population dynamics of this bloom-forming cyanobacterium.

一种新型聚合物分散剂的制备及表征

以甲基丙烯酸和丙烯磺酸钠为单体、过硫酸铵溶液为引发剂合成聚合物分散剂（PMS）。最佳合成条件：单体总质量为60g,甲基丙烯酸和丙烯磺酸钠的摩尔比为3．0,过硫酸铵溶液加入量为12g,亚硫酸氢钠加入最为1g,反应温度为75℃。对最佳条件下制得的PMS进行应用实验,当100g陶瓷氧化铝粉末中PMS加入量为0．5g时,浆料的黏度较小,分散效果良好。PMS属于非品态聚合物,热稳定性良好,相对分子质量为2127。     

生物质分类表征蔬菜废物好氧降解模型中试检验

为发展可支持生产性堆肥设施控制的有机废物好氧降解模型,对生物质分类蔬菜废物好氧降解速率模型(即:六因子的生物质分类一级降解动力学模型Mt=M0e-kt),以及通过主因子分析法(PCA)和生物质组分归类2种方法简化得到的二因子和三因子模型,利用太湖农村生活垃圾现场堆肥中试的一次发酵试验结果,进行了模拟检验.结果表明,生物质分类表征蔬菜废物好氧降解模型能有效地模拟中试的实际降解率,模拟与实测值的pearson相关系数r＞0.966(p＜0.001);且模拟效果基本不受原料生物质组成与堆肥工况控制条件的影响.而简化模型的模拟效果明显劣于六因子模型,这可能源于各类生物质好氧降解受温度影响的机制不同,组分的动力学参数难以合并简化.

Regulatory effects on particulate pollution in the early hours of Chinese New Year, 2015

Human activities are a key driver of air pollution, so it is hardly surprising that celebrations affect air quality. The use of fireworks contributes to high particulate concentrations in many parts of the world, with the Chinese Lunar New Year (spring festival) particularly noticeable, as firecrackers are traditionally used to drive off evil spirits. Fireworks lead to short-term peaks in the concentration of PM10, PM2.5 and SO₂. Regulatory actions that restrict the use of fireworks have been evident in China since the 1990s. This paper investigates the particulate concentrations in nine Chinese cities (Beijing, Chengdu, Chongqing, Tianjin, Xi’an, Nanjing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, along with Hong Kong (a Special Administrative Region) and Taipei and Kaohsiung (Taiwan) with a particular focus on the celebrations of 2015. Extremely high concentrations of particulate matter were observed, with some sites revealing peak PM10 concentrations in excess of 1000 μg m^?3 in the early hours of the New Year. In Beijing, Tianjin and Chongqing, the activities caused high particulate matter concentrations at most sites throughout the city. These peaks in particulate load in the early hours of Chinese New Year do not appear to be closely related to meteorological parameters. However, in cities where fireworks appear to be better regulated, there are fewer sharp pollution peaks just after midnight, although lowered air quality can still be found in the outer parts of some cities, remote from regulatory pressures. A few cities seem to have been effective at reducing the impact of the celebrations on air quality, with Nanjing a recent example. An increasing focus on light displays and electric lanterns also seems to offer a sense of celebration with much reduced impacts on air quality.     

深部煤层对CO2地质处置机制及应用前景

CO2是重要的温室气体之一,CO2的有效处置对减缓全球变暖具有重大意义。由于煤介质具有特殊的双重孔隙结构、吸附性强等物性特征,对CO2具有很强的吸附能力,且大于煤介质吸附CH4的能力,因此,可将CO2注入深部不可开采煤层储存,在长久处置CO2的同时亦可促进深部煤层气的开采。在我国,深部不可开采煤层处置CO2显示了巨大的潜力,可以处置26-46年的CO2排放量,尤其在华北煤炭能源基地具有良好的应用前景。
