为研究2008年8月北京奥运会1a之后北京市大气颗粒物的污染特征,于2009年8月对北京市大气颗粒物PM10、PM2.5样品进行采集,测量其质量浓度并对其中的水溶性离子组分进行分析.研究发现2009年8月北京市大气颗粒物PM10、PM2.5质量浓度日均值分别为176.9μg/m3和102.5μg/m3.PM10质量浓度比2008年观测值上升了180%,比2007年降低了10%; PM2.5质量浓度比2008年观测值上升了126%,比2007年上升了31%.水溶性离子是大气颗粒物的重要组分,分别占PM10和PM2.5质量浓度的43%和61%.对比发现,污染天气条件下PM2.5/PM10和NO3-/SO42-比值升高,移动源是北京地区主要的污染物来源.风向风速和降水等天气条件对颗粒物质量浓度有很大影响,其中0.5~1.0m/s的东南风条件下大气颗粒物污染最为严重.     

超声场中活性炭上Zn2+的吸附/脱附

采用静态条件,考察了超声波对活性炭上Zn2+吸附/脱附性能的影响.结果表明,有/无超声作用下,活性炭对Zn2+的吸附率均随Zn2+初始浓度的增加而减少,该吸附过程属于优惠吸附, Langmuir模型能更好描述该过程,超声的引入对活性炭吸附Zn2+有一定抑制作用.脱附研究发现,在蒸馏水介质中,Zn2+脱附率仅为2.11%,加入超声后Zn2+的脱附率提高至20.8%,添加NaOH后脱附率明显增加,有/无超声作用下的脱附率分别为40.1%和33.1%.动力学分析表明,Zn2+在活性炭上的吸附/脱附均符合2级反应动力学.     

Oxidized multiwalled carbon nanotubes modified with 2-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl imidazole for solid phase extraction and preconcentration of some metal ions

In this work, a new procedure for the enrichment of the trace amount of Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Pb²⁺, Fe²⁺, and Zn²⁺ ions based on the utilization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) modified with 2-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl imidazole as chelating agent prior to their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry has been described. The influence of effective parameters including pH, amount of ligand and MWCNT, composition of eluent, and coexisting ions on recoveries of understudy metal ions was examined. At the optimum pH of 5.0, all metal ions were quantitatively sorbed onto the proposed solid phase and completely desorbed with 8?mL of 5.0?mol?L^?1 HNO₃. The detection limit of Cu²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Pb²⁺, Fe²⁺, and Zn²⁺ ions was 1.7, 2.4, 2.3, 2.9, 2.8, and 1.4?µg?L^?1, while the preconcentration factor was 63 for Cu²⁺ and 94 for the other metal ions and relative standard deviations between 1.8 less than 3.0%. The proposed procedure was applied for the analysis of various samples.     

Measurement of watershed phosphorus: A review

Eutrophication control programs are based on phosphorus management which, in turn, requires a detailed quantification of the watershed phosphorus budget. This involves an assessment of non‐point sources of phosphorus, a key element of which is determining the fraction of soil‐P and sediment‐P available to support algal growth. This paper presents a review of the state‐of‐the‐art of estimating algal available‐P from non‐point sources, and an analysis of pertinent data. The need to employ multi‐interval algal bioassays in developing phosphorus management systems is stressed.     

Testicular DNA synthesis inhibition—an in vivo system for the detection of mutagenic and carcinogenic chemicals

By binding covalently to DNA chemical mutagens and carcinogens inhibit replication, which can be measured as a decrease in thymidine incorporation into DNA. This DNA synthesis inhibition (DSI) has been determined in testicular cells of mice for a large number of compounds and has been found to correlate very well with their known mutagenic and carcinogenic properties.

Not only could this test give a qualitative answer about potential carcinogenicity or mutagenicity, but, with regard to its in vivo characteristics, could furthermore give an indication of the carcinogenic and mutagenic potency and thus be of use in the risk evaluation of chemical substances; the relationship between the DNA synthesis inhibition and the underlying alkylation of guanine ‐0⁶ by different methylating agents is demonstrated.

As toxic effects decrease thymidine incorporation, too, means are discussed for distinguishing between “true”;, mutagenic, and “false”;, cytotoxic, DNA synthesis inhibition.

In conclusion, the implications of including the DSI‐test in a battery of mutagenicity tests are outlined.     

Hydroxyl radical generation by redox cycling of some chemotherapeutic antibiotics

The anticancer drugs: adriamycin, farmorubicin and mitomycin C greatly enhance the generation of hydroxyl radicals (HO^.) from H₂O₂ in the presence of Co(II) ions (CoCl2) at pH 7.4 and 8, as measured by the deoxyribose assay. Catalase, hydroxyl radical scavengers (mannitol, cysteine, glutathione, thiourea, lactic dehydrogenase) inhibited the degradation of deoxyribose confirming that HO‐radicals are responsible for the degradation of the carbohydrate.     

Uncertainty analysis of a pharmacokinetic modeling for inorganic arsenic

This paper presents an uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of a pharmacokinetic modeling of inorganic arsenic deposition in rodents for a short‐term exposure. Efforts to develop the pharmacokinetic model are directed towards predicting the kinetic behavior of inorganic arsenic in the body, including tissue and blood concentrations, and especially, the urinary excretion of arsenic and its methylated metabolites. However, the use of the model raises an important question when fixed values of model parameters are used: how is the uncertainty in the model prediction based on the collective uncertainties in the model inputs? This study focuses on an “epistemic”; uncertainty in order to handle this problem. In this case, the uncertainty refers to an input that has a single value which cannot be known with precision due to a lack of knowledge about items or its measurement. The combination of the pharmacokinetic model and the uncertainty analysis would help understand the uncertainties in risk assessment associated with inorganic arsenic.
