Monitoring of air pollution by polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans of pine needles in Korea

The atmospheric contamination levels of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) were evaluated from the analysis of pine needles in South Korea. Pine needles were collected from 30 sampling points at five main cities in South Korea (Busan, Daegu, Gwangju, Changwon and Jeju island). The highest concentrations of PCDDs/DFs (2.19–26.88 pg I-TEQ/g of dry weight) were measured at Busan, where is the city of the highest population density and traffic volume among five cities. The lowest concentration was detected at Jeju with 0.62 pg I-TEQ/g dry weight, suggesting Jeju could be an environmental background area in Korea. The dominant homologues of PCDDs/DFs in pine needles were the lower chlorine-substituted compounds such as tetra CDDs and CDFs, and the distribution ratios of PCDDs/DFs decreased with increase of the number of chlorine substituents. Homologue profiles of pine needle samples were similar to PCDDs/DFs profiles of the vapor phase in the ambient air, and thus the pine needles absorbed the vapor phase of PCDDs/DFs from air. Results suggested that pine needles could be used as an indicator of the atmospheric contamination for PCDDs/DFs in Korea.

Synthesis of [13C]- and [14C]-labeled phenolic humus and lignin monomers

Natural phenolic monomers are ubiquitous in the environment and are involved in the stabilization of atmospheric carbon and the transformation of xenobiotics. Investigations on the stabilization of phenolic carbons and their environmental fate are hampered by the unavailability of commercial [13C]- and [14C]-labeled phenols. Here we report the complete chemical synthesis of the lignin and humus structural monomers p-coumaric, ferulic, and caffeic acids, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, protocatechualdehyde, vanillin, catechol, and guaiacol, uniformly [13C]- or [14C]-labeled in the aromatic ring, starting from commercially available [U-ring-13C]- or [U-ring-14C]-labeled phenol. The synthesis of these compounds involved selective ortho-hydroxylation of the aromatic ring, Friedel-Crafts alkylation, and Knoevenagel condensation. [U-ring-13C]- or [U-ring-14C]-p-coumaric acid was synthesized via p-hydroxybenzaldehyde with a 75% yield with respect to phenol. Synthesis of [U-ring-13C]- or [U-ring-14C]-ferulic acid, consisting of six single steps via guaiacol and vanillin, had an overall yield of up to 45%. Uniformly ring-labeled caffeic acid was synthesized either via catechol and protocatechualdehyde in five single steps, yielding [U-ring-14C]-caffeic acid with a 37% yield, or via guaiacol, vanillin, and ferulic acid in seven steps, yielding [U-ring-13C]-caffeic acid with an 18% yield. Ferulic acid, [14C]-labeled at beta-C of the propenoic side chain, was synthesized from [2-14C]-malonic acid under Knoevenagel conditions with a 67% yield with respect to malonic acid. Demethylation of the [beta-14C]-ferulic acid with BBr3 in CH3CN resulted in [beta-14C]-caffeic acid with a 62% yield. All [U-ring-13C]-labeled phenolic products were analyzed by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (13C-NMR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).     

The three-year monitoring of 18 elements in five edible mushroom species collected from an old orchard

Abstract

The content of Al, As, Be, Cd, Ca, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Pb, Li, Mg, Mn, Ni, Rb, Se, Sr, and Zn in fruiting bodies of edible mushrooms Calocybe gambosa, Entoloma clypeatum, Entoloma saepium, Xerocomellus chrysenteron, and Amanita rubescens growing in an orchard planted with fruit trees and situated close to a high-grown forest was studied during years 2016–2018. A. rubescens showed the highest potential of the element accumulation with bioconcentration factors of 48.5, 16.2, 7.80, 6.53, 1.75, and 1.68 obtained for Rb, Cd, Cu, Zn, Sr, and Mg, respectively. Both Entoloma species accumulated the elements similarly with bioconcentration factors >1.0 obtained for Rb, Cu, Cd, and Mg. Bioconcentration factors <0.05 were obtained for Al, Cr, Fe, and Pb in all studied species. The contents of beryllium (<0.1?mg/kg dry matter) were always the lowest among the studied elements. The contents of some elements of studied mushroom species significantly fluctuated over the years. Despite the fact that some studied elements (As, Be, Cd, Pb, Ni) are considerably toxic for humans, the pronounced effect on health is not expected if the studied mushroom species are consumed occasionally and do not represent the main component of the diet.

一种经济、简单的微生物基因组DNA的提取方法

获得一定浓度和纯度的DNA是进行分子生物学研究的基础。破解细胞壁与细胞膜是获得基因组DNA的前提，而蛋白质和核酸物质的分离是获得高质量DNA产物的关键。目前，主要采用的破壁方法有：冷冻研磨法、溶菌酶法、EDTA测等，这些方法一般采用复杂的裂解液体系，并借助蛋白酶K和RNA酶的帮助来获得高质量的抽提产物。由于细胞裂解体系不仅配制十分麻烦，而日部分药品有毒操作危险性大，此外部分药品及相关酶试剂价格昂贵。本文充分利用DNA在不同温度下自身可变性与复性的特性和在高盐与高温条件下蛋白质能够变性并沉淀。以无菌的SDS（c／c=20％）和NaCl（c/c=8％）的混合液作裂解体系，在沸水浴中破壁膜并使得部分的蛋白质变性和DNA变性并得到初步分离；随后在60℃和72℃水浴中使变性的DNA复性和重新凝聚，同时让RNA、蛋白质和细胞壁碎片等杂质降解或沉淀，从而获得高质量的DNA产物。     

塔克拉玛干绿洲外围胡杨林的水分特征研究

塔克拉玛干沙漠南缘地区年均降水量不足50mm,胡杨在这一地区绿洲外围自然植被中占有重要地位.对塔克拉玛干沙漠绿洲外围胡杨林水分特征的研究表明,在生境地下水含量较稳定的条件下,胡杨林受到的水分胁迫程度不大,干旱胁迫未对胡杨林的持续存在构成主要威胁.胡杨的水分生理特点显示植物更加依靠稳定的水分供应来应对极端干旱的环境条件,并且在蒸腾作用中形成了细胞水平上的生理适应策略.因此,保持地下水的稳定是维持绿洲前沿天然胡杨林持续存在的关键因素.     

表面活性剂对柴油在土壤中吸附的影响

通过静态吸附实验,研究土壤对十二烷基苯磺酸钠(LAS)和十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)的吸附行为,探讨表面活性剂对柴油吸附的影响.结果表明,土壤对LAS和CTAB的吸附等温线均为非线性,其吸附能力的大小顺序为:轻壤土>轻粘土>中壤土>砂壤土>重壤土>紧砂土.同一土壤中,CTAB的吸附量大于LAS的吸附量.LAS和CTAB均利于柴油在土壤表面的解吸,且LAS的解吸效果更好.柴油的吸附量随LAS浓度的升高而降低.当CTAB的浓度小于临界胶束浓度CMC时,吸附量随CTAB浓度的升高而升高,当CTAB的浓度等于或大于临界胶束浓度(CMC)时,吸附量随CTAB浓度的升高而降低.
