不同培养介质中纳米氧化铜对小麦毒性的影响（Influence of Culture Media on the Phytotoxicity of CuO Nanoparticles to Wheat（Triticum aestivum L.））

通过比较纳米氧化铜(CuONPs)和微米氧化铜(CuOMPs)在两种土壤中Cu2+的溶出及其对脲酶活性影响,结合产生脲酶活性抑制效应的Cu2+浓度阈值,研究了CuONPs和CuOMPs对土壤脲酶活性的毒性效应机制.结果表明:CuONPs和CuOMPs的Cu2+溶出量随其浓度增加而增加,溶出比率随浓度增加而减少,两者在红壤中Cu2+的溶出均比在乌栅土中高;在1～1000mg·kg-1范围内,CuONPs对土壤脲酶活性产生了显著(p≤0.05)或极显著(p≤0.01)的抑制效应;同浓度下,CuONPs在土壤中的Cu2+溶出及其对脲酶活性的抑制效应均大于CuOMPs;在相对低浓度(1～10mg·kg-1,红壤;1～100mg·kg-1,乌栅土)下,CuO的纳米态对土壤脲酶活性具有抑制毒性,在相对高浓度(≥50mg·kg-1,红壤;≥500mg·kg-1,乌栅土)下,CuO的纳米态和溶出Cu2+共同作用引起了脲酶活性抑制;与CuONPs不同,CuOMPs只有通过溶出Cu2+抑制土壤脲酶活性,其颗粒态对脲酶活性无显著影响;值得注意的是,在低浓度(1mg·kg-1)下CuONPs对土壤脲酶活性具有微米态和离子态所没有的抑制毒性,说明其对土壤酶影响应存在特殊机理,值得进一步深入研究.

Deposition and Retention of Ultrafine Aerosol Particles in the Human Respiratory System. Normal and Pathological Cases

The particle number concentration in ambient air is dominated by nanometersized particles. Recent epidemiological studies report an association between the presence of nanoparticles in inhaled air at the workplace and acute morbidity and even mortality in the elderly. A theoretical model of deposition of 20 nm particles in the human alveolus was formulated. Gas flow structure and deposition rate were calculated for alveoli with different elastic properties of lung tissue. Data obtained in the paper show increased convective effects and diffusional rate of deposition of nanoparticles for alveoli with higher stiffness of the alveolar wall. The retention of deposited particles is also higher in these pathological alveoli. Results of our calculations indicate a possibility of existence of a positive loop of coupling in deposition and retention of nanoparticles in the lung with pathological changes.     

Efficiency of Filtering Materials Used in Respiratory Protective Devices Against Nanoparticles

The basic aim of this research was to establish the efficiency of filtering materials widely used in respiratory protection devices with particular interest in their porosity, degree of electric and changeable process parameters, such as the flow rate of the test nanoaerosol and the size range of nanoparticles. Tests were carried out with an NaCl solid aerosol of 3.2 × 10⁵ particles/cm³ for the range of particle size of 7–270 nm, at aerosol flow rate of 1800, 2700, 3600, 4500 and 5400 L/h. The tests showed that electrospun nonwovens were the most effective filtering materials for nanoparticles over 20 nm. Melt-blown electret nonwovens with lower porosity than electrospun nonwovens had higher values of penetration of 1%–4%. Those materials provided very efficient protection against nanoparticles of certain sizes only.     

亚热带土壤氮素反硝化过程中N2O的排放和还原

将采集于江西鹰潭的45个发育于不同成土母质和不同利用方式的土壤样本,在密闭、淹水、充N2的严格厌氧条件下进行了28d的培养试验(30℃),在培育过程中,定期测定NO3--N(加入量为200mg·kg-1)含量和培养瓶上部空间N2O的含量变化.实验结果表明,N2O含量(N)随培养时间t的变化可用方程N=A×(1-exp(-k1 t))-B×exp(k2 t)拟合(A表示培养过程中N2O总排放量;B为常数;k1和k2分别为N2O排放速率常数和还原速率常数,拟合值和实测值之间回归方程的决定系数R2=0.84±0.11).不同土壤之间培养期间N2O总排放量(A)的变异可以用培养7d内被反硝化的NO3--N量和N2O排放率(A值与28d内被反硝化的NO3--N总量的百分比)进行解释(R2=0.829,p＜0.01).被反硝化的NO3--N量则主要受土壤有机碳含量或有机氮矿化量控制,N2O排放率则随k2的增大而呈指数下降(p＜0.01).由此可见,在该实验条件下,还原N2O能力强的土壤,在相同量的NO3--N被反硝化的情形下,排放的N2O可能较少.但影响k2值的主要因素还有待进一步研究.     

Studies on solvent extraction of iron(III) as a step for conversion of a waste effluent to a value added product

Solvent extraction of iron(III) from actual sulphate waste pickle liquor was investigated using trialkylphosphine oxide diluted with kerosene. The waste pickle liquor was procured from a local company which deals with the manufacturing of pipes and tubes made of iron and steel. Various parameters were studied to optimise a suitable condition for the maximum extraction of iron. The composition of the aqueous feed used in the experiment was 60.88 g/L Fe(III), 53 g/L acid with traces of Cu, Ni and Co. An ambient extraction at 30 °C yielded acceptable kinetics and loading efficiency for 40% trialkylphosphine oxide with a saturated loading capacity of 51.85 g/L in four contacts at O/A ratio of 1/1 in a multiple contact mode. Iron from the loaded organic was stripped using various strippants such as distilled water, H₂SO₄ and oxalic acid. Since only 32% of loaded Fe could be stripped with 2 M H₂SO₄ in five contacts, further stripping was done with 5% oxalic acid which showed a very promising result. It was found that almost 100% of Fe(III) could be stripped out with 5% oxalic acid at O/A of 1/1 in five contacts.     

SGO改性复合纳滤膜的制备及分盐性能

近年来,水资源短缺,水源污染严重,国家对水处理末端的资源化利用提出了更高的要求,分盐过程也受到越来越多的关注.纳滤膜表面通常带有电荷,可以选择性地透过不同价态的离子.基于纳滤膜表面电荷特性不同,为很好地实现盐的分离,将制备的带有磺酸基团的氧化石墨烯引入到纳滤膜材料中,采用界面聚合法,制备了SGO改性复合纳滤膜. Zeta电位分析表明所制备的复合纳滤膜表面的电荷比不添加SGO的纳滤膜更负;红外光谱分析中酯基基团特征峰的出现表明磺酸基团参与了聚合反应; SEM结构表面,膜表面出现了明显的图灵结构,在0. 2 MPa压力下,纯水通量可达45. 85 L·(m~2·h)-1,对Na2SO4截留率为98. 23%,对Na Cl截留率为24. 93%,10 h运行可以很好地实现对SO_4~(2-)、Cl~-的有效分离,可实现盐的资源化回收.     

Visible light photocatalytic bismuth oxide coatings are effective at suppressing aquatic cyanobacteria and degrading free-floating genomic DNA

Access to safe drinking water free from microbial pollution is an issue of global concern. The use of photocatalytic thin films in water treatment has focused on titanium dioxide, which requires UV-activation, proving a potential barrier to upscaling and implementation in the real world. Visible-light-activated photocatalytic thin films, such as bismuth oxide, have recently been shown to have antimicrobial properties. However, more understanding of the photocatalytic effect on the microbial population in water is required. Glass beads coated with bismuth oxide were incubated with either Microcystis aeruginosa, Anabaena sp. or free-floating genomic DNA. The presence of bismuth oxide-coated glass beads was able to rapidly stop a population of cyanobacteria from increasing. The coated beads were also able to degrade genomic DNA. Leachate from the beads showed no increase in toxicity against human liver cells. This data demonstrates the efficacy of bismuth oxide-coated glass beads for controlling potentially dangerous cyanobacterial populations, whilst potentially reducing the amount of free-floating genomic DNA (an essential issue in the face of antimicrobial resistance) – all of which should be essential considerations in emerging water treatment technologies.     

稻田土壤氧化亚氮产生潜势、反硝化功能基因丰度和群落结构的垂向分布

土壤中氧化亚氮（N₂O）的释放量占全球N₂O释放总量的60%.其中，稻田土壤是N₂O最主要的释放源.反硝化过程是稻田土壤N₂O生成的主要微生物过程之一.本研究选取广东韶关稻田垂向土壤（0~100 cm）为研究对象，通过乙炔抑制剂法测定了N₂O产生潜势和反硝化潜势，并利用针对特异性功能基因的实时荧光定量和高通量测序技术分别分析反硝化功能基因丰度和反硝化微生物群落结构.结果显示：0~10 cm深度的土壤样品N₂O产生潜势最高，可达（0.020±0.0035）μg·g^-1·h^-1.反硝化功能基因中，nirK基因的丰度峰值（（1.51±0.0015）×10⁸ copies·g^-1）出现在0~10 cm深度，而nosZ和nirS基因的丰度峰值（（4.29±0.0015）×10⁷ copies·g^-1和（8.86±0.0010）×10⁷ copies·g^-1）均出现在10~20 cm深度.稻田垂向土壤中N₂O产生潜势和相关的反硝化功能基因（nosZ、nirK和nirS）丰度均随土壤深度的增加而逐渐降低.其中在所有深度的土壤样品中nirK基因的丰度均高于nirS.基于nirK基因的高通量测序结果发现慢生根瘤菌（Bradyrhizobium）的相对丰度最高（44.06%±6.14%，n=6）.相关性分析表明，稻田土壤中N₂O产生潜势与环境因子（TN、TC和含水率）、反硝化功能基因丰度以及慢生根瘤菌（Bradyrhizobium），罗河杆菌属（Rhodanobacter）和亚硝化螺菌属（Nitrosospira）的相对丰度呈正相关.上述结果表明稻田土壤中环境因子和反硝化功能基因丰度影响了N₂O产生潜势的垂向分布.
