Prenatal diagnosis,fetal pathology,and cytogenetic analysis of mosaic trisomy 14

While true mosaicism occurs in only 0–25 per cent of genetic amniocenteses, nearly 2–5 per cent of amniotic fluid cell cultures contain a second cell line. In the common practice of prenatal diagnosis, an aberrant cell line confined to a single colony is usually disregarded. We present a case of mosaic trisomy 14 which was not detected on initial chromosome analysis. At birth, multiple malformations were apparent. Newborn cytogenetic studies revealed mosaicism [46,XX/46,XX,-14,+i(14q)] with an isochromosome 14 in 37 per cent of lymphocytes. Additional cells from the initial amniotic fluid culture were analysed post-delivery and the isochromosome 14 identified in only one of 12 total colonies. This case illustrates two important lessons in prenatal diagnosis. First, amniotic fluid cell cultures may not accurately reflect the relative distribution of the normal and abnormal cell lines within a mosaic fetus. Second, while it is generally reasonable to disregard mosaicism confined to a single colony, this policy will, on rare occasion, result in diagnostic error. This should be taken into consideration, particularly when dealing with autosomal trisomies potentially compatible with livebirth.     

与玢岩铁矿有关的两类蚀变再认识

长江下游陆相火山岩地区分布着规模巨大的玢岩铁矿及其有关蚀变岩石,铁矿形成后普遍受到古风化淋滤和剥蚀作用的影响,并在浸蚀面上堆积的火山碎屑岩层的底部,发育有含铁矿石和蚀变岩石角砾的碎屑岩层。在此基础上又生成一套直接受火山作用控制的蚀变,称为火山蚀变,它在火山碎屑岩中分布很广泛,其中有黄铁矿化、黄铜矿化、明矾石化、硬石膏化、叶腊石化、硅化、高岭土化和水云母化等。上述两类蚀变是不同时期不同地质作用的结果,在成因上没有直接关系。     

铅对几种农作物的影响及迁移积累规律初探

四种作物的盆栽模拟实验表明:铅对作物的影响,主要表现为植株矮化、生物量下降.作物受铅危害,主要在种子萌发期和苗期.进入植物体的铅,主要沉积于导管壁及木质部细胞壁中.作物各部位吸铅的能力不同;作物吸铅量与土壤含铅量呈正相关;各器官含铅量依水分和养料的运输方向互成正相关性,并依此方向减少;作物吸收的铅不仅可以从下至上转移,也可以从上至下转移,但后者较困难.

Concurrency: a system design approach to environmental management and sustainability

The lessons of history indicate that mismanagement of natural resources and the environment often leads to potentially adverse consequences.The increasing interest in economic development,particularly in the developing countries of the world coupled with increasing population pressures and the globalization of economic activity is placing noticeable stresses on the ultimate sustainability of both human and environmental systems.Sustainable development is not a new concept.It has been an area of concern for different elements of society for some time.Yet efforts to understand the implications of sustainable development have not,until recently,been formalized.We have focused singularly on economic development and environmental quality as if they were mutually exclusive.This paper focuses on the concept of concurrency as both a conceptual framework and practicable method of understanding and implementing the ecology and economy of sustainability.

2－硝基芴大鼠肝微粒体体外代谢研究

初步研究了在通风条件下，经Ａｒｏｃｌｏｒ１２５４诱导的大鼠肝微粒体酶对２－硝基芴的体外代谢。通过液相色谱、气相色谱、质谱、紫外光谱及红外光谱，首次分离和检测出单羟芴和二羟基芴等代谢产物，但未测得明显的硝基还原代谢产物。此外尚有一些谢产物未能定性。高致突变性羟基衍生物的检出，显示出硝基多环芳烃在哺乳动物体内可能存在多种代谢活化途径。为进一步的研究奠定了基础。     

安徽新桥铜硫矿床成矿时代及成矿物质来源

安徽新桥铜硫矿床的主要矿体呈似层状赋存于上石炭统黄龙组下部，矿石的Rb－Sr等时线年龄为313.2士32．7Ma，Ph－Ph等时线年龄为290±10Ma。锶和铅同位素组成反映成矿物质主要来自上地壳（地层）。矿床主要由海西期沉积成矿作用形成，后来受到了燕山期岩浆活动迭加改造。
