植物对纳米颗粒的吸收、转运及毒性效应

随着工程纳米颗粒的广泛使用,这些纳米材料不可避免地进入环境,对环境造成未知影响.植物是高等生物暴露于纳米颗粒的一条主要途径,工程纳米颗粒可能通过食物链使其在高营养水平生物中积累.植物与纳米颗粒间的相互作用应该受到关注和重视.已有的文献表明纳米颗粒能被植物选择性地吸收并引起植物毒性,但纳米颗粒进入植物体内的机制仍不明确.多数关于植物吸收纳米颗粒的研究是在理想条件如水培实验下开展,并且集中在植物的种子发芽或是幼苗生长阶段.描述纳米颗粒在植物体内的生物转化和在植物体内分配的报道较少,而且这方面的机制没有阐述清楚.目前有许多研究者关注纳米颗粒的植物毒性效应,但这方面的研究需要进一步深入.

酸化液对厌氧释磷好氧吸磷速率的影响研究

采用序批式试验研究了酸化液对聚磷菌厌氧释磷好氧吸磷速率的影响。同一活性污泥混合液中聚磷菌的释磷潜力相当,混合液中挥发性脂肪酸越多则越有利于激发聚磷菌的释磷潜能。酸化液投加量越大,对应的混合液中聚磷菌的平均释磷速率也越大。当酸化液投加量为30 mg/L(以TOC计)时,聚磷菌的平均释磷速率达0.137 mg/(mg.d),是未投加酸化液工况的3.26倍。聚磷菌厌氧释磷过程中,活性污泥的MLVSS值逐渐增大,而MLSS值却不断减小,这是由聚磷菌释磷反应过程中聚磷颗粒和糖原的消耗,以及PHB的生成而产生的。碳源充足与否,对聚磷菌的平均好氧吸磷速率影响不大,研究各工况中,聚磷菌的平均吸磷速率在0.129~0.160 mg/(mg.d)内。碳源越充足,则聚磷菌在好氧吸磷反应持续的时间越长,因此,具有更强的超量吸磷能力。酸化液投加量为20 mg/L时(以TOC计),聚磷菌在好氧吸磷结束时,出水的SP浓度能减少到0.5 mg/L以下。     

Nitrogen mass balance in a constructed wetland treating piggery wastewater effluent

The nitrogen changes and the nitrogen mass balance in a free water surface flow constructed wetland （CW） using the four-year monitoring data from 2008 to 2012 were estimated. The CW was composed of six cells in series that include the first settling basin （Cell 1）, aeration pond （Cell 2）, deep marsh （Cell 3）, shallow marsh （Cell 4）, deep marsh （Cell 5） and final settling basin （Cell 6）. Analysis revealed that the NH4＋-N concentration decreased because of ammonification which was then followed by nitrification. The NO4＋-N and NO4＋-N were also further reduced by means of microbial activities and plant uptake during photosynthesis. The average nitrogen concentration at the influent was 37,819 kg/year and approximately 45% of that amount exited the CW in the effluent. The denitrification amounted to 34% of the net nitrogen input, whereas the accretion of sediment was only 7%. The biomass uptake of plants was able to retain only 1% of total nitrogen load. In order to improve the nutrient removal by plant uptake, plant coverage in four cells （i.e., Cells 1, 3, 4 and 5） could be increased.     

硒对镉胁迫下菠菜生理特性、元素含量及镉吸收转运的影响

为了探讨硒(Se)对菠菜中的镉(Cd)胁迫造成毒害的缓解作用,采用盆栽试验,研究了不同浓度Se(0、0.5、2.0、4.0 mg·L-1)对不同浓度Cd(0.5和2.0 mg·kg-1)胁迫下菠菜生理特性、元素含量及Cd吸收转运的影响.结果表明:不同浓度的Se可使丙二醛(MDA)积累量显著降低,最佳作用下分别为两种浓度Cd单一胁迫下的53.93%和41.79%;不同浓度的Se可以缓解Cd胁迫对菠菜地上部和根部的抑制作用,最佳缓解条件下,菠菜地上部和根部的鲜重分别为两种浓度Cd单一胁迫时的1.13倍、1.29倍和1.31倍、1.37倍,干重分别为1.78倍、2.09倍和3.03倍、4.36倍;叶绿素含量显著提高,在最佳缓解浓度下分别是两种浓度Cd单一胁迫时的1.51倍和1.35倍;与两种浓度Cd单一胁迫相比,最佳缓解浓度下超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性分别提高了36.0%和42.8%;外源Se可以使地上部和根部的K、Na、Ca和Mg等元素的含量不同程度的增加;施Se可以有效的抑制菠菜根部对Cd的吸收、富集和向地上部的转运,使菠菜地上部和根部Cd含量显著降低,分别为两种浓度Cd单一胁迫下的65.77%、75.92%和46.11%、70.01%,表明外源Se能有效的减轻Cd胁迫对菠菜的毒害作用.对本研究所用的两种浓度Cd来说,最佳的缓解浓度为2.0 mg·L-1和4.0 mg·L-1.     

不同生物质炭对酸雨及氧化性沉降下花生生长及累积砷镉的影响

通过温室盆栽试验,研究了普通生物质炭和铁基生物质炭对酸雨及氧化性沉降下不同生育期花生生长及累积砷、镉(As、Cd)的影响.结果表明,酸雨及50μmol·L-1H2O2沉降处理对处于花期及成熟期中花生的生物量、根瘤数和瘤干重的影响不显著(p0.05),但却显著增加了花生籽粒中Cd的含量和花生壳中As的含量(p0.05).其中,铁基生物质炭可显著降低酸雨及氧化性沉降下花生地上部、根部、籽粒、壳中累积As、Cd含量(p0.05),且作用效果明显强于普通生物质炭.由此可知,酸雨及氧化性沉降增加了花生对土壤重金属As、Cd的富集,而施加铁基生物质炭可有效降低作物的As、Cd累积,为有效防控酸雨及氧化性沉降区域的花生砷、镉重金属污染具有重要现实意义.     

Diffusive gradients in thin films using molecularly imprinted polymer binding gels for in situ measurements of antibiotics in urban wastewaters

• Selective molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) binding gel was prepared. • MIP-DGT showed excellent uptake performance for antibiotics. • In situ measurement of antibiotics in wastewaters via MIP-DGT was developed. • The MIP-DGT method was robust, reliable, and highly sensitive. Urban wastewater is one of main sources for the introduction of antibiotics into the environment. Monitoring the concentrations of antibiotics in wastewater is necessary for estimating the amount of antibiotics discharged into the environment through urban wastewater treatment systems. In this study, we report a novel diffusive gradient in thin films (DGT) method based on molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for in situ measurement of two typical antibiotics, fluoroquinolones (FQs) and sulfonamides (SAs) in urban wastewater. MIPs show specific adsorption toward their templates and their structural analogs, resulting in the selective uptake of the two target antibiotics during MIP-DGT deployment. The uptake performance of the MIP-DGTs was evaluated in the laboratory and was relatively independent of solution pH (4.0–9.0), ionic strength (1–750 mmol/L), and dissolved organic matter (DOM, 0–20 mg/L). MIP-DGT samplers were tested in the effluent of an urban wastewater treatment plant for field trials, where three SA (sulfamethoxazole, sulfapyridine, and trimethoprim) and one FQ (ofloxacin) antibiotics were detected, with concentrations ranging from 25.50 to 117.58 ng/L, which are consistent with the results measured by grab sampling. The total removal efficiency of the antibiotics was 80.1% by the treatment plant. This study demonstrates that MIP-DGT is an effective tool for in situ monitoring of trace antibiotics in complex urban wastewaters.     

鱼吸收富集LAS的分析研究进展

LAS对鱼等水生生物均产生有害影响,会破坏鱼鳃上皮组织、影响其相关功能(如通透性等)。LAS经由鱼鳃吸收、并通过血液输送到鱼体中各组织。LAS疏水性越大,其在鱼体中生物富集系数越大。水硬度等影响鱼吸收、富集LAS。鱼体中LAS生物转化过程减小了LAS生物富集。鱼体中LAS及其生物转化产物大多是经过固相萃取或基质固相分散萃取后,采用HPLC或HPLC/MS等方法进行分析。     

Nitrogen cycling of atmosphere-plant-soil system in the typical Calamagrostis angustifolia wetland in the Sanjiang Plain, Northeast China

The nitrogen (N) distribution and cycling of atmosphere-plant-soil system in the typical meadow Calamagrostis angustifolia wetland (TMCW) and marsh meadow Calamagrostis angustifolia wetland (MMCW) in the Sanjiang plain were studied by a compartment model. The results showed that the N wet deposition amount was 0.757 gN/(m2·a), and total inorganic N (TIN) was the main body (0.640 gN/(m2·a)). The ammonia volatilization amounts of TMCW and MMCW soils in growing season were 0.635 and 0.687 gN/m2, and the denitrification gaseous lost amounts were 0.617 and 0.405 gN/m2, respectively. In plant subsystem, the N was mainly stored in root and litter. Soil organic N was the main N storage of the two plant-soil systems and the proportions of it were 93.98% and 92.16%, respectively. The calculation results of N turnovers among compartments of TMCW and MMCW showed that the uptake amounts of root were 23.02 and 28.18 gN/(m2·a) and the values of aboveground were 11.31 and 6.08 gN/(m2·a), the re-translocation amounts from aboveground to root were 5.96 and 2.70 gN/(m2·a), the translocation amounts from aboveground living body to litter were 5.35 and 3.38 gN/(m2·a), the translocation amounts from litter to soil were larger than 1.55 and 3.01 gN/(m2·a), the translocation amounts from root to soil were 14.90 and 13.17 gN/(m2·a), and the soil (0-15cm) N net mineralization amounts were 1.94 and 0.55 gN/(m2·a), respectively. The study of N balance indicated that the two plant-soil systems might be situated in the status of lacking N, and the status might induce the degradation of C. angustifolia wetland.
