Evaluation of potential genotoxicity of five food dyes using the somatic mutation and recombination test

In this study, different concentrations of five food dyes (amaranth, patent blue, carminic acid, indigotine and erythrosine) have been evaluated for genotoxicity in the Somatic Mutation and Recombination Test (SMART) of Drosophila melanogaster. Standard cross was used in the experiment. Larvae including two linked recessive wing hair mutations were chronically fed at different concentrations of the test compounds in standard Drosophila Instant Medium. Feeding ended with pupation of the surviving larvae. Wings of the emerging adult flies were scored for the presence of spots of mutant cells which can result from either somatic mutation or somatic recombination. For the evaluation of genotoxic effects, the frequencies of spots per wing in the treated series were compared to the control group, which was distilled water. The present study shows that carminic acid and indigotine demonstrated negative results while erythrosine demonstrated inconclusive results. In addition 25 mg mL⁻¹ concentration of patent blue and 12.5, 25 and 50 mg mL⁻¹ concentrations of amaranth demonstrated positive results in the SMART.

Effects of inorganic chlorine source on dioxin formation using fly ash from a fluidized bed incinerator

Chlorine source is indispensable for polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin and furan (PCDD/F) formation during municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration. Inorganic chlorine compounds were employed in this study to investigate their effects on PCDD/F formation through heterogeneous synthesis on fly ash surfaces. A fly ash sample obtained from a fluidized bed incinerator was sieved to different size fractions which served as the PCDD/F formation sources. The capability of different metal chlorides which facilitate the formation of PCDDs/Fs was found to follow the trends: Na ＜ Mg ＜ K ＜ Al ＜ Ca, when two particle fractions of ＞177 μm and 104-125 μm were used in the experiments. However, the capability of NaCl, MgCl2 and KCl did not seem much different from each other, whereas CaCl2 and AlCl3 were much more active in PCDD/F formation. NaCl and MgCl2 were relatively effective to produce more PCDDs, while KCl, AlCl3 and CaCl2 generated more PCDFs during heterogeneous reactions occurring on fly ash. 2,3,7,8-TCDF was the most significant contributor to the toxicity of the PCDDs/Fs formed from inorganic chlorine sources. Decreasing the sizes of fly ash particles led to more active formation of PCDDs/Fs when NaCl was used as inorganic chlorine in the experiment. The highest PCDDs/Fs produced from particles with size ＜37 μm, while the lowest PCDDs/Fs produced from particles with size ＞177 μm. The toxicity generally increased with decreasing size of the fly ash particles. The formation of PCDDs was mainly facilitated by the two size fractions, 104-125 μm and ＜37 μm, while formation of PCDFs was favored by the two other size fractions, ＞177 μm and 53-104 μm.     

Removal of disinfection by-products formation potential by biologically intensified process

The removal of disinfection by-products formation potential(DBPFP) in artificially intensified biological activated carbon(IBAC) process which is developed on the basis of traditional ozone granular activated carbon was evaluated. By IBAC removals of 31% and 68% for THMFP and HAAFP were obtained respectively. Under identical conditions, the removals of the same substances were 4% and 32% respectively only by the granular activated carbon(GAC) process. Compared with GAC, the high removal rates of the two formed potential substances were due to the increasing of bioactivity of the media and the synergistic capabilities of biological degradation cooperating with activated carbon adsorption of organic compounds. A clear linear correlation ( R^2 = 0.9562 and R^2 = 0.9007) between DOC HAAFP removal rate and Empty Bed Contact Time(EBCT) of IBAC process was observed, while that between THMFP removal rate and EBCT of GAC was R^2 = 0.9782. In addition certain linear correlations between THMFP, HAAFP and UV254 ( R^2 = 0.855 and R^2 = 0.7702) were found for the treated water. For IBAC process there are also more advantages such as long backwashing cycle time, low backwashing intensity and prolonging activated carbon lifetime and so on.     

一种基于聚类分析的由林分因子估算地表可燃物载量的方法

地表可燃物载量的确定,是实现森林地表火蔓延预测的前提。已有火蔓延模型中,假定同一林分中可燃物分布是均匀的,不能准确描述可燃物载量的复杂空间分布。基于聚类分析方法,建立了一种根据易获取的几种林分因子来估算地表可燃物载量的方法。首先,对大兴安岭地区35块兴安落叶松林样地和21块樟子松林样地的树龄、郁闭度、胸径、树高等林分因子采用重心法进行系统聚类分析,分别将兴安落叶松林和樟子松林分为5类和7类。然后,计算得出每类可燃物的类中心,并以每类包含所有样地的可燃物载量的平均值来表示该类中心的载量,并由此建立可燃物载量与林分因子的对应关系。对聚类分析与线性回归预测模型从平均绝对误差AAD、标准误差SEE、模型预测稳定性指标SIF三方面进行对比,结果表明聚类分析模型要优于线性回归分析模型。

黄河三角洲水土盐形成演化与分布特征

在研究黄河三角洲形成与演化规律基础上,研究了浅层地下水赋存分布与水质特征以及土壤含盐量分布特征,重点探讨了地下淡水、微咸水形成与演化规律。主要认识和结论如下:(1)黄河三角洲是由黄河携带泥沙填海造陆而成,据三角洲形成年代,将黄河三角洲划分为古黄河三角洲、近代黄河三角洲和现代黄河三角洲;(2)近年来,人类活动成为影响河口三角洲发育不可忽视的因素;(3)黄河三角洲咸水含水层广布,浅层地下淡水和微咸水主要赋存在黄河现代河床、古河道带和决口扇高地;(4)黄河三角洲地下淡水、微咸水的分布与形成演化及土壤含盐量分布状况与三角洲形成的早晚、黄河河道的变迁、所处微地貌部位及现代河道与渠系分布等因素密切相关;(5)三角洲形成时间越晚,浅层淡水和微咸水分布面积越小,水量越贫乏。     

长兴入太湖河网水文变化特征与水质时空差异

以长兴县入太湖的泗安塘-合溪-乌溪河网为研究对象,将入湖河网划分为水源区、河网区、西苕溪区和入湖区,于2018年8月和2019年1月分别对长兴县入太湖河网丰水期和枯水期的水质状况进行了调查,采用空间聚类法、水质标识指数对水质的时空分布进行评价。结果表明,长兴入太湖河网不同片区氨氮（NH₃-N）和总氮（TN）的质量浓度平均值呈现枯水期较丰水期高的特征,而高锰酸盐指数（COD_Mn）和总磷（TP）则呈现丰水期较枯水期高的特征。空间聚类分析结果表明,水质指标分布具有明显的空间差异性,呈现水源区>西苕溪区>河网区>入湖区的分布特征,入湖区是污染物聚集的主要区域。综合水质标识指数分析结果表明,长兴入太湖河网主要以Ⅱ类和Ⅲ类水为主;单因子水质标识指数分析结果表明,溶解氧（DO）、COD_Mn、NH₃-N、TP指标均优于Ⅲ类水标准,TN是入太湖河网的特征污染物,且在丰水期和枯水期质量浓度平均值分别达到2.24,3.49 mg/L。因此,进一步削减氮污染是缓解其河网富营养化的关键。
