环境因子对小球藻生长的影响及高产油培养条件的优化

探讨了不同环境条件对小球藻(Chlorella sp.)叶绿素荧光动力学参数以及净光合放氧速率的影响,确定了以L₁海水培养基为基础,以8.8 mmol/L浓度的(NH₂)₂CO为氮源、0.145 mmol/L NaH₂PO₄ · H₂O浓度为磷源,在150 μmol · m^-2 · s^-1光照强度、培养温度为18 ℃的小球藻最优培养条件。在此条件下,明显加快了小球藻细胞的生长速度,促进了油脂和脂肪酸的积累,细胞密度增加24%,油脂和脂肪酸含量分别增加了16.8%和66.6%。在培养液中添加外源柠檬酸(最适浓度以0.06 mmol · L^-1 · d^-1为宜)可以明显提高小球藻的生长速度,促进其脂肪酸的积累。同时也可看出,筛选的小球藻藻种具有生长快、易培养、产油高的优点,可作为生物能源研究的良好材料,为海洋微藻的开发利用奠定了基础。     

早期糖尿病肾病大鼠模型磁共振弥散加权成像的初步研究

目的:探讨早期糖尿病肾病(Diabetic nephropathy,DN)模型大鼠磁共振弥散加权成像(Diffusion Weight Imaging,DWI)肾实质ADC值变化规律。方法:将20只清洁级雄性SD大鼠随机分成两组,糖尿病肾病组(DN组)12只,正常对照组(NC组)8只;DN组给予60 mg/kg链尿佐菌素腹腔注射诱导糖尿病肾病模型,NC组按照相同方法、相同剂量柠檬酸缓冲液腹腔注射;并对最终糖尿病模型造模成功并且存活的8只DN大鼠、8只NC大鼠进行MRI扫描,包括常规轴位T1WI、T2WI扫描及DWI扫描;扫描结束后收集血液送血肌酐及双肾组织进行病理检查。并测量每只大鼠双肾皮、髓质的ADC值。结果:造模后,DN组大鼠血糖明显升高、尿量明显增加、体重明显减低,DN组大鼠肾脏出现不同程度病理损伤,符合早期DN病理改变。DN组大鼠肾脏皮、髓质ADC值分别为1.522±0.913×10^-3 mm^2/s、1.268±0.388×10^-3 mm^2/s,较NC组肾脏皮、髓质ADC值1.276±0.341×10^-3 mm^2/s、1.011±0.217×10^-3 mm^2/s增高,两组比较有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:DWI成像ADC值可能反映早期糖尿病肾病肾脏功能的变化。     

家蚕质多角体病毒片段IV的全序列测定

在随机引物建库的基础上,通过交叉设计引物及加单链DNA接头,应用RT-PCR技术克隆的家蚕质多角体病毒dsRNA片段Ⅳ的全长cDNA,并测定了它的全序列。该片段长3,262bp,含有一个完整的开放讯码框,编码一个长1,058氨基酸的成熟多肽。序列分析表明,该片段与日本BmCPV片段Ⅳ的核苷酸序列同源性为89％,氨基酸序列同源性为95％。     

氰戊菊酯在茶叶和茶汤中的残留动态及最大残留限量评价

在生长均匀的茶园喷施氰戊菊酯(fenvalerate),采摘施药后2 h和1 h、2 h、3 h、5 h、7 h、9 h、14 h、21天的茶树鲜叶加工成绿茶,用气相色谱法测定成茶、茶汤和茶渣中反式氰戊菊酯和顺式氰戊菊酯的含量,研究了氰戊菊酯在成茶、茶汤中的残留动态。结果表明:反式氰戊菊酯和顺式氰戊菊酯在成茶中的残留水平随施药间隔天数的增加呈下降趋势,20 mL/667 m2施药剂量下,分别由施药当天2 h的9.40 mg/kg和17.51 mg/kg减小到第21天的1.07 mg/kg和1.53 mg/kg,消解幅度为88.62%和91.26%,40 mL/667 m2施药剂量下,分别由施药当天2 h的20.37 mg/kg和38.67 mg/kg减小到第21天的1.94 mg/kg和3.06 mg/kg,消解幅度为90.49%和92.09%。茶汤中氰戊菊酯含量(y)与成茶中氰戊菊酯含量(x)呈二项式函数关系,反式氰戊菊酯的函数关系为y=-0.0007x2 0.0242x,顺式氰戊菊酯的函数关系为y=-0.0002x2 0.0114x。按我国标准饮茶摄入的氰戊菊酯占每日允许摄入量的0.049%,足以达到保护人体健康水平的要求。而按欧盟的标准,饮茶摄入的氰戊菊酯占每日允许摄入量的0.0019%,即在10-5水平上,这样的风险水平已接近对非阈效应化学物质的风险控制水平(10-6)。     

Inhibition of in Vivo Conversion of Methionine to Ethylene by l-Canaline and 2,4-Dinitrophenol

l-Canaline, a potent inhibitor of pyridoxal phosphate-mediated reactions, markedly inhibited the conversion of methionine to ethylene and carbon dioxide by apple tissue. A 50% inhibition of methionine conversion into ethylene was obtained with 50 mum canaline and almost complete inhibition with 300 mum canaline. When 2,4-dinitrophenol, an oxidative phosphorylation uncoupler, was fed to apple tissue, it inhibited the conversion of radioactive methionine to ethylene by 50% at a concentration of 60 mum and by 90% at a concentration of 100 mum. Production of labeled carbon dioxide from acetate-1-(14)C was increased by 2,4-dinitrophenol, indicating that the inhibition of ethylene production was due to uncoupling of phosphorylation. Auxin-induced ethylene production by mungbean (Phaseolus mungo L.) hypocotyl sections was similarly inhibited by these inhibitors.These results support the proposal that pyridoxal phosphate is involved in the formation of ethylene from methionine, substantiate the requirement for ATP in ethylene production, and suggest that this ATP requirement occurs in the step (s) between methionine and ethylene. The biosynthetic mechanism probably involves activation of methionine by ATP followed by a pyridoxal phosphate-mediated gamma-elimination.     

The Biosynthesis of Sucrose and Nucleoside Diphosphate Glucoses in Phaseolus aureus

Sucrose-phosphate synthetase is detectable only in intact chloroplast preparations of Phaseolus aureus. In contrast, sucrose synthetase and uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-glucose) pyrophosphorylase activities are low in extracts of photosynthetic tissues of P. aureus but are high in extracts of nonphotosynthetic tissues. Activities for ADP-, dTDP-, CDP-, and GDP-glucose pyrophosphorylases are generally higher in extracts of photosynthetic tissues of P. aureus than in extracts of nonphotosynthetic tissues. The high levels of sucrose synthetase and of UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase found in dark-grown hypocotyls begin to decline about 4 hours after exposure to light at a rate of 50% every 3 hours.
