序批式接触氧化反应器中细菌多样性及其功能

采用分子生物学手段,通过构建16S rDNA基因文库,对新型剩余污泥减量化处理系统——序批式生物砾间接触氧化反应器中细菌多样性进行了系统发育分析,并讨论了多种细菌共存对剩余污泥减量化的贡献.共有72个克隆子用于细菌系统发育分析. 结果表明:填料表面附着细菌与孔隙内细菌由变型菌属、噬纤维菌-屈挠杆菌-拟杆菌组(CFB)、硝化杆菌科、低G+C革兰氏阳性细菌、高G+C革兰氏阳性细菌、疣微菌科和绿菌科等七大类细菌组成. 其中,优势菌群分别是以兼具呼吸/发酵代谢方式的β变形菌纲(分别占生物膜和内泥中克隆子总量的18%和35%)和δ变形菌纲,以及以呼吸/发酵为主要代谢方式的CFB(分别占克隆子总量的24%和23%). 多种细菌对剩余污泥减量化的主要功能可归纳为能量解偶联、共代谢作用、生物溶胞作用和慢性生长种群的影响.      

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans in different tissues of the cormorants (Phalacrocorax carbo) from Dongting Lake, China

Tissue distribution provides important information regarding the pharmacokinetic behavior of pollutants and is invaluable when analyzing the risk posed to avian species by the exposure to such kind of pollutants. In this study, concentrations of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) were determined in muscle, liver, spleen, kidney, stomach, gall bladder, skin, heart, pancreas, intestine and lung tissue extracts of cormorants collected from Dongting Lake, China. Tissue distribution results showed preferential accumulation of PCDD/Fs in both liver and skin. The total concentration of PCDD/Fs ranged from 421 to 5696 pg/g lipid weight. Octachlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (OCDD) was the predominant congener in all tissues and contributed between 31% and 82% to all 17 PCDD/Fs in different tissues. The liver/muscle ratios progressively increased with the degree of chlorination of PCDDs, except for OCDD. The relative toxic potential of PCDDs and PCDFs in tissues were calculated using the World Health Organization (WHO) Toxic Equivalency Factors (TEFs) for birds. The concentrations of WHO-toxic equivalent in different tissues ranged between 14.8 and 2021 pg/g lipid weight. These results indicated PCDD/Fs may have been bio-accumulated in cormorant via food-web. Furthermore, when compared with studies reported in the literatures, the PCDD/Fs levels in the cormorant collected from Dongting Lake were still relatively high.     

苯并[a]芘对马氏珠母贝鳃组织抗氧化酶活性的影响

将马氏珠母贝（Pinctada martensi）暴露于不同质量浓度（1、4和8μg.L-1）苯并[a]芘B[a]P中,检测暴露后第3、7和10天后,马氏珠母贝鳃组织抗氧化酶（超氧化物歧化酶SOD、谷胱甘肽硫转移酶GST和过氧化氢酶CAT）对苯并[a]芘胁迫的生态毒理效应。结果表明：暴露时间为3、7 d时,SOD活性无明显变化,随着暴露时间的延长,SOD活性在第10天时被激活;在胁迫初期,GST活性被激活,随后表现出逐渐降低的趋势,在暴露后10 d,不同质量浓度组GST活性变化趋于稳定。当暴露质量浓度相同时,表现出明显的时—效关系;而CAT活性在第7天被激活,随着时间的延长,高质量浓度（4和8μg.L-1）组表现出先升高后下降的趋势,并表现出一定的时-效关系。SOD、GST和CAT均可作为B[a]P污染的生物标志物,活性变化相对于SOD,GST和CAT对B[a]P的胁迫更加敏感。     

抗赖氨酸加苏氨酸的玉米种子蛋白突变体

通过离体选择抗赖氨酸加苏氨酸玉米突变体，不仅获得了积累游离苏氨酸和赖氨酸等氨基酸的突变类型，也选择到了种子蛋白组份发生改变的高蛋氨酸突变体和高赖氨酸体细胞无性系变异体。高蛋氨酸种子中总蛋氨酸的含量比对照增高２２．６％，这是由于醇溶蛋白Ｚｅｉｎ－２部分及其蛋氨酸含量增高所致。高赖氨酸变异体种子游离必需氨基酸增高显著（２－１０倍），总赖氨酸比对照亲本增高２８．１％，含量约占种子干重的０．４０％，种子蛋白清蛋白、球蛋白和谷蛋白组份含量增高而醇溶蛋白减少。高赖氨酸和高蛋氨酸特性遗传稳定，植株育性正常。     

中国保护水生生物的甲基汞水质标准制订初探

甲基汞是具较强生物有效性和毒性的有机汞形态,其具有高生物累积性和生物放大效应,能对水生态系统中高营养级生物产生极高的危害,对脊椎动物造成神经毒性、内分泌干扰和生殖毒性等。我国不同环境介质(水、沉积物和生物体组织)中均检测到了甲基汞的存在。传统的水质基准仅依据水环境中水生生物急慢性毒性数据推导得到,未考虑污染物的生物有效性和生物累积性,采用该水质基准可能会对水生态系统造成欠保护。组织浓度是累积性物质生物有效性的直接体现,使用基于组织浓度的毒性数据推导水质基准进而确定水质标准,科学性更强,能更加合理、可靠地保护水生态系统。综述了甲基汞暴露最新毒性研究,在此基础上,采用物种敏感度分布法计算了甲基汞基于组织浓度的基准值为23.15 μg/kg,确定了其保护水生生物的水质基准值为0.12 ng/L,由此推导了其适合我国水环境的水生生物水质标准值为0.35 ng/L。研究结果可为甲基汞水质基准向水质标准的转化及生物累积性物质的水环境质量管理提供思路和支持。     

Chemometric approach to evaluate element distribution in muscle,liver and fish bone of roach (Rutilus rutilus), silver bream (Blicca bjoerkna) and crucian carp (Carassius carassius) from Swarzędzkie Lake (Poland) using ICP-MS and FIAS-CVAAS techniques

The content of elements in fish tissues and organs from Swarz?dzkie Lake was investigated in order to evaluate the possible risk associated with their consumption by animals as well as humans. Samples of muscle, liver and fish bone of three fish species; roach (Rutilus rutilus), silver bream (Blicca bjoerkna) and crucian carp (Carassius carassius) were collected from seine catches undertaken as part of the biomanipulation of Swarz?dzkie Lake. Element concentration (Al, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Zn) was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), with the exception of Hg where the flow injection analysis system cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry (FIAS-CVAAS) was applied. The study indicated a large variation in the occurrence of the investigated elements in different parts of the fish body. The highest content of Al and Zn was stated in all fish organs for each fish species. The majority of the applied statistical and chemometric methods (e.g., PCA, CA) refer to roach since we had a large number of data for this species. The obtained results were assessed in terms of their accuracy and precision using certified reference material of Fish Muscle ERM BB422.     

Characterisation of early responses to cadmium in roots of Salix matsudana Koidz

This study deals with the characterisation of early responses of roots of Salix matsudana in respect to oxidative stress, subcellular distribution, and chemical forms when exposed to 50 μmol/L Cd. Within 12 h, the root length is reduced and the contents of O₂^??, H₂O₂, and malondialdehyde are increased by 49%, 43%, and 35%. Cd is mainly retained in the cell walls; small amounts are distributed into other cell organelles. The largest proportion of Cd is found in the NaCl extractable, pectate-, and protein-integrated fraction.     

甲醛暴露时间延长加剧小鼠哮喘模型肺氧化损伤并促进IL-17表达

为了探究不同暴露时间甲醛对小鼠哮喘模型肺氧化应激及IL-17表达的影响,用浓度为3.0 mg·m~(-3)的甲醛气体吸入染毒,同时将48只雄性Balb/c小鼠随机分为6组:(1)对照组(生理盐水组);(2)ovalbumin(OVA)致敏组;(3)0.5 h甲醛+OVA组;(4)1h甲醛+OVA组;(5)1.5 h甲醛+OVA组;(6)2 h甲醛+OVA组,以不同时间长度进行甲醛暴露,连续35 d。OVA致敏组、0.5 h甲醛+OVA组、1 h甲醛+OVA组、1.5 h甲醛+OVA组、2 h甲醛+OVA组均在第11、18及25天腹腔注射OVA致敏液(5 mg OVA+175 mg Al(OH)_3+30 mL生理盐水),第29~35天(共计1周)进行1%OVA雾化(30 min·d~(-1)),每日1次,诱发哮喘。第36天进行以下操作:取肺组织测定肺系数并制作肺匀浆,检测肺组织中活性氧自由基(ROS)、丙二醛(MDA)和还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)的含量,并采用ELISA法检测肺组织中IL-17的水平。同时,采用HE染色法观察小鼠肺部气道的病理学变化。结果显示,在浓度为3.0 mg·m~(-3)的甲醛气体吸入染毒条件下,与对照组相比,1.5 h甲醛+OVA染毒组、2 h甲醛+OVA染毒组ROS、MDA、IL-17含量上升,具有统计学意义(P0.01)。同时,随着暴露时间长度的增加,小鼠肺部气道出现明显病理学变化。综上所述,每天2 h甲醛+OVA染毒能对小鼠肺造成损伤并恶化OVA对小鼠肺的损伤,产生炎症反应,并通过氧化应激反应介导。

本文采用邻苯三酚自氧化法，测定了大亚湾核电站Ⅰ、Ⅱ号机组运转前与后第１年、第２年附近地区动物体肝组织及红细胞中超氧物歧化酶（ＥＣ１．１５．１．１Ｓｕｐｅｒｏｘｉｄｅｄｉｓｍｕｔａｓｅ，ＳＯＤ）活性变化，结果发现Ⅰ、Ⅱ号机组运转后第１年与第２年，鱼类，细鳞（ＴｈｅｒａｐｏｎＪａｒｂｕａ）红细胞与肝组织中ＳＯＤ活性较运转前明显升高（Ｐ＜０．０５），血红蛋白略有下降，肝组织蛋白无明显变化，两栖类动物蟾蜍（Ｂｕｆｏｍｅｌａｎｏｓｔｉｃｔｕｓ）红细胞ＳＯＤ活性运转后亦明显升高（Ｐ＜０．０１），但肝组织中ＳＯＤ活性呈现下降（Ｐ＜０．０５），血红蛋白及肝组织蛋白无明显性变化，本文对其变化可能原因进行了讨论。     

Sensitivity of chromosomal mosaicism detection by different tissue culture methods

In the field of prenatal cytogenetic diagnosis, two tissue culture methodologies are currently in use: the flask method, which examines mixed populations of cells, and the in situ method, which examines distinct colonies of cells. These two methods provide inherently different levels of sensitivity which can be made comparable by adjusting the number of cells examined depending on the methodology used and the number of colonies formed per ml of specimen. Assuming that there are 2 colonies per ml of amniotic fluid in a 20 ml specimen, in order to detect 10, 20, and 30 per cent mosaicism with 95 per cent confidence, 29, 14, and 9 colonies should be examined respectively by the in situ method. Similarly, 50, 17, and 10 cells must be analysed by the flask method.
