用氧化裂解和四极质谱检测法测定地面水中有机悬浮物的元素组成

本研究采用燃烧后四极质谱(QMS)检测装置测定地面水中有机悬浮物的元素组成。用离心法收集几种类型水中的固体物质。结果表明,本方法可用于水特性鉴定等方面。包括予处理和元素分析约需30分钟。无论水污染研究还是废物和天然有机物代谢机理的探讨,都越来越对地面水中不溶物内的有机质部分的元素组成感兴趣。有机质的组成极为复杂,因为它可能含有多种工业组分及脂肪、蛋白质和碳水化合物的代谢物。所以,进行全面的结梅分析以确定化合物的种类及其含量是不实际的而且几乎是不可能的。然而,元素分析可以给出化合物种类的有用信息,如脂肪或蛋白质的存在。最近Baumeister(1978)进行了地面水中悬浮物的CHN分析(即碳氢氮分析,译注)。他发现,各种不同试样的颗粒中C/N比率颇为一致。这可说明均来源于生物。     

金属矿物学中光性数据的测定和应用

<正> 现今人们理解定量矿相学的意义是,用光学方法在反射光下精确测定那些对矿物鉴定来说十分重要的数据。这就是反射率、显微硬度和色度以及折射率(n),吸收系数(k)和吸收指数(x)。 反射率的测定可以追溯到Orcel(1937)时代,他第一次用光电池方法测定金属矿物的反射率。这一     

Seven suggestive quantitative trait loci influence hygienic behavior of honey bees

In 1964, Walter Rothenbuhler proposed a two-gene model to explain phenotypic variance in the remarkable behavior in which honey bee workers remove dead brood from their colonies. Rothenbuhler's model proposed that one locus controls the uncapping of brood cells containing dead pupae, while a second controls the removal of the cell contents. We show here, through molecular techniques and quantitative trait loci (QTL) linkage mapping, that the genetic basis of hygienic behavior is more complex, and that many genes are likely to contribute to the behavior. In our cross, we detected seven suggestive QTLs associated with hygienic behavior. Each detected QTL controlled only 9-15% of the observed phenotypic variance in the character.     

博茨瓦纳欧科范果湿地1972～2000年泛滥方式

欧科范果三角洲地区泛滥范围年年在变化.这种变化与安哥拉高地集水区的区域性降水及当地降雨量有关.我们采用了1972～2000年的3000多幅卫星图像来描绘湿地的格局,其中从1985～2000年的图像几乎是NOAAAVHRR每日连续传送的,1972年以来的其它图像是从Landsat传感器上传下来的,其连续性次之.对AVHRR图像每10天为一期,用无监督分类方法分成陆地和水体.对LandsatTM和ERS2-ATSR数据进行分析的结果,与测算的淹没区域89%相吻合.结果显示欧科范果湿地近期30年期间的变化约在2450～11400km2之间.     

利用裂变产物I~(133)的中子活化分析法精确测定岩石、矿物中的铀含量

本文介绍了一种确定岩石和矿物样品中铀含量的放射化学中子活化技术。这种方法是基于碱熔样品,用硝酸钠溶液对碘的选择氧化和用蒸馏法分出裂变产物 I~(133)。这种方法是迅速、灵敏和可靠的。     

有机染料废水的净化

电化学处理目前用电化学法处理工业废水的越来越多。在无隔膜电解槽中阳极氧化有机杂质很有效。有机污染物可通过原子氧、氯以及电化学法进行氧化。电解槽的阳极一般用石墨、钛、氧化钌钛涂层,而阴极一般用不锈钢和钛涂层,此时多数情况下不生成沉淀。在以石墨或涂钌钛氧化物的电极为阳极无隔膜电解槽中进行了净     

Fluid Mechanics of Biological Surfaces and their Technological Application

 A survey is given on fluid-dynamic effects caused by the structure and properties of biological surfaces. It is demonstrated that the results of investigations aiming at technological applications can also provide insights into biophysical phenomena. Techniques are described both for reducing wall shear stresses and for controlling boundary-layer separation. (a) Wall shear stress reduction was investigated experimentally for various riblet surfaces including a shark skin replica. The latter consists of 800 plastic model scales with compliant anchoring. Hairy surfaces are also considered, and surfaces in which the no-slip condition is modified. Self-cleaning surfaces such as that of lotus leaves represent an interesting option to avoid fluid-dynamic deterioration by the agglomeration of dirt. An example of technological implementation is discussed for riblets in long-range commercial aircraft. (b) Separation control is also an important issue in biology. After a few brief comments on vortex generators, the mechanism of separation control by bird feathers is described in detail. Self-activated movable flaps (=artificial bird feathers) represent a high-lift system enhancing the maximum lift of airfoils by about 20%. This is achieved without perceivable deleterious effects under cruise conditions. Finally, flight experiments on an aircraft with laminar wing and movable flaps are presented.
