水环境中腐殖酸与镉离子结合作用的影响因素

通过测定不同化学条件下腐殖酸与镉离子作用后的游离态镉离子浓度及其结合率,研究各因素对腐殖酸与镉离子作用的影响。研究结果表明,pH值、离子强度、投加镉离子总浓度、腐殖酸浓度和反应温度均影响腐殖酸与镉离子的结合。pH值在4.5~6.5范围内,随pH值升高,腐殖酸与Cd²⁺的结合率增大,游离态Cd²⁺浓度减少。溶液的离子强度增大对结合反应有抑制作用。投加Cd²⁺总浓度的增大会导致结合态Cd²⁺浓度和游离态Cd²⁺浓度逐渐增加,而其结合率逐渐减小。腐殖酸浓度逐渐增大,使Cd²⁺和腐殖酸的结合率逐渐增大。在20℃~50℃范围内时,随反应温度升高,游离态Cd²⁺浓度逐渐减小,其结合率逐渐增加。     

土壤镉处理对棉花镉吸收及分布规律的影响

用CdCl2将盆栽土壤Cd浓度处理为1mg／kg、5mg／kg、10mg／kg、20mg,／kg、30mg／kg种植棉花,研究棉花对镉的吸收及镉在棉花体内的分布规律。结果表明,当土壤镉浓度小于30mg／kg时,镉在棉花体内的分布呈现不同的规律。当土壤镉浓度小于5mg／kg时,镉主要分布在棉花的地上部;当土壤镉浓度大于20mg／kg时,镉主要分布在棉花的叶片、根、茎中,其中叶片的镉含量最高,棉絮镉含量最低。不同镉污染水平下,棉花的镉富集系数均小于1。当土壤镉污染浓度为5mg／kg时,棉花叶片的镉富集系数为0．76。在同一镉污染水平下,棉花叶片的镉转运系数最高。当土壤镉含量小于20mg／kg时,棉花茎、叶、棉絮的转运系数平均为4．63。

Differential fitness of allelic isozymes in the marine gastropodsLittorina punctata andLittorina neritoides,exposed to the environmental stress of the combined effects of cadmium and mercury pollution

The present study tested the separate and the interactive pollution effects of cadmium and mercury on the electrophoretically detected allelic isozyme frequencies of the enzyme phosphoglucose isomerase for two species of littoral marine gastropods —Littorina punctata andL. neritoides — and the enzyme amino peptidase forL. neritoides. Our results indicate differential survivorship of allelic isozyme genotypes specific for each type of pollutant and for their interaction, as well as trends common to all pollutants. Theoretically the results reflect the adaptive nature of at least some allozymic genotypes in these marine gastropods and seem inconsistent with the neutral theory of allozyme polymorphisms. Practically, the results reinforce earlier conclusions that changes in the frequency of allelic isozymes may be used as a genetic monitor of pollution.     

Municipal sludge management: Health aspects of crop uptake of cadmium from sludge-amended soil and recommendations for regulation

Regulations have been proposed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency to promote the proper management of sludge disposal on croplands. The application of municipal sludge to croplands raises serious questions concerning the increase in dietary levels of metals resulting from metal uptake by crops. A model is presented that affords a quantitative estimate of the dietary increase of metals when foods are derived from sludge-amended soil. If a diet or part of a diet is derived completely from sludge-amended soil, it is likely to be excessive in cadmium and pose a clear health hazard. Recommendations designed to reduce the potential health threat of excessive metals in the diet are presented.     

THE IMPACT OF URBANIZATION ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF HEAVY METALS IN BOTTOM SEDIMENTS OF THE SADDLE RIVER1

ABSTRACT: A three-year study has been conducted on a 4.6 mile stretch of the Saddle River near Lodi, New Jersey. The primary objectives of this investigation were (1) to provide baseline information on the concentration and distribution of heavy metals in bottom sediments of the Saddle River; (2) to qualitatively evaluate which parameters affect this distribution; and (3) to determine the effect of urbanization on the concentration and distribution of these materials. Significant enrichments of several heavy metals were observed in bottom sediments of the lower Saddle River near Lodi, New Jersey, as compared to the upper Saddle River. Attempts to correlate metal concentrations in bottom sediments with chemical-oxygen demand were not successful in demonstrating a relationship between these two factors. Metal concentrations were found to be strongly dependent upon particle size. In general, metal concentrations in bottom sediments increased with decreasing partical diameter. However, metals enrichment was observed to be considerably greater in the larger sediment fractions studied (>420μ) than the smaller sediment fractions as one proceeded downstream through the urban area. Since the larger sediment fractions are least effected by scour and transport they may best reflect the effect of urbanization on the distribution of heavy metals over an extended period of time at a given location.     

CADMIUM ACCUMULATION AND TOXICITY IN SUBMERGED PLANT HYDRILLA VERTICILLATA (l.f.) ROYLE

Cadmium accumulation and its toxicity in relation tochlorophyll, protein, cysteine contents and in vivo nitrate reductaseactivity were studied under controlled conditions in Hydrillaverticillata, a submerged commonly occurring macrophyte. Plants weresubjected to six different concentrations of Cd ranging from 1.0 to 25.0 µM for 24, 48, 72 and 168 h. Tissue Cd concentration was maximum (13.71 µmoles/g dw) at 25 µM background concentration. At this concentration, a decrease of approximately 79 and 72% was found in chlorophyll and protein content. In vivo nitrate reductase activity was stimulated at 1.0 µM; however, the activity gradually declined beyond this concentration. Exposure to various cadmium concentrations resulted in an increase in cysteine content of the plant.

生物炭对重污染土壤镉形态及油菜吸收镉的影响

为了解不同种类和用量的生物炭对土壤镉形态及油菜吸收镉的影响,通过室外盆栽试验,以湖南某冶炼区周边重镉污染土壤为供试土壤,湘油27号为供试作物,于油菜移栽前7d分别添加w为0.1％和1％的竹炭和柠条炭,分析土壤镉形态和成熟期油菜各器官镉含量.结果表明,添加生物炭能降低土壤镉的有效性和油菜各器官中镉含量.柠条炭降低油菜吸收累积镉的效果比竹炭更明显,且随着生物炭量的增加阻控效果更明显.相比于对照组,施用生物炭后土壤中w(可交换态镉)最大可降低16.64％;油菜根部、茎秆、油荚和籽粒w(镉)最大可分别降低34.06％ 、39.74％、33.15％和49.81％.综合结果表明,添加w=1％柠条炭处理组处理效果最佳.     

聚苯乙烯微塑料单独或与镉共同暴露诱导肝细胞铁死亡

微塑料作为一种新型污染物,易吸附并富集环境中的重金属等,广泛存在于大气、土壤和水体环境中,对人体的危害正受到广泛关注.微塑料与其吸附污染物引发的复合毒性效应及机制是目前微塑料环境毒理学评价中亟待解决的科学问题.本研究以聚苯乙烯微塑料和镉为研究对象,考察其对新型细胞死亡方式-铁死亡的诱导作用,发现微塑料和镉暴露诱导肝细胞线粒体形态异常和线粒体嵴减少、GSH水平下降、脂质过氧化损伤以及关键铁死亡调节蛋白GPX4表达量降低,证实微塑料和镉暴露可诱导肝细胞发生铁死亡;同时不同铁死亡抑制剂及毒性检测指标的测定还表明,Cd²⁺主要通过抑制膜脂修复膜GPX4活性,引起脂质过氧化,导致铁死亡发生;聚苯乙烯微塑料主要通过刺激活性氧产生促进铁死亡;二者复合体可同时通过活性氧和抑制酶活等方式促进铁死亡发生,但其发生程度弱于Cd²⁺,可能是由于复合体中Cd²⁺呈吸附态降低其部分毒性所致.本文预期将为深入评价微塑料与镉的复合毒性效应提供数据支撑,同时为微塑料与其它共存的有毒组分的复合毒性效应及机制研究提供一定参考.
