用土钻法研究了杉木（Ｃｕｎｎｉｎｇｈａｍｉａｌａｎｃｅｏｌａｔａ）、火力楠（Ｍｉｃｈｅｌｉａｍａｃｌｕｒｅｉ）纯林和混交林的细根分布,用分解袋法研究了杉木和火力楠细根的分解,计算了３个林分中细根分解的Ｎ,Ｐ,Ｋ,Ｃａ,Ｍｇ的归还量。活细根的垂直分布以火力楠纯林层次性最强,混交林次之,杉木纯林最差。火力楠细根的养分含量比杉木细根高,而Ｃ／Ｎ比低。火力楠细根年分解率比杉木快,火力楠为５７．７％,而杉木为３２．７８％。细根分解的养分归还量多少顺序依次为：火力楠纯林、杉木火力楠混交林和杉木纯林。混交林中,细根分解的Ｎ,Ｐ,Ｋ,Ｃａ和Ｍｇ归还量分别为枯枝落叶的３３．３８％,５．８２％,２６９．３３％,３４．１２％和３７６．０８％。细根在３个林分的物质循环和周转中起着不可忽视的作用。     

杉木,火力楠纯林及混交林细根周转的研究

系统研究了杉木、火力楠纯林及混交林细根生物量、生产力及年周转率。结果表明,杉木、火力楠纯林及混交林活细根生物量分别为８８０、３０３５和１５６０ｋｇ．ｈａ＾－１;死细根生物量为２３５、３９８和５６５ｋｇ．ｈａ＾－１;细根年周转率为１．２９、１．４２和１．４０;年生产量为１１３７、４３１８和２１７９ｋｇ．ｈａ＾－１;年死亡量为４９７．５９５和１１４９ｋｇ．ｈａ＾－１,分别相当于林分枯枝落叶年凋落量为３     

南亚热带乡土树种人工纯林及混交林土壤微生物群落结构

以我国南亚热带格木、马尾松人工纯林及二者混交林林地土壤为对象,运用磷脂脂肪酸(PLFAs)法研究了3种人工林土壤微生物生物量和群落结构特征.结果表明: 旱季土壤微生物的PLFAs总量及各菌群的PLFAs量显著高于雨季.旱季土壤微生物的PLFAs总量、细菌PLFAs量、真菌PLFAs量、放线菌PLFAs量均为马尾松人工林最高,混交林次之,格木林最低;而雨季格木人工林土壤微生物的PLFAs总量、细菌PLFAs量、真菌PLFAs量、丛枝菌根真菌PLFAs量高于混交林,并显著高于马尾松人工林.主成分分析表明,土壤微生物群落结构组成受林分类型和季节的双重影响.冗余分析表明,土壤温湿度、pH值、全氮及铵态氮含量与特征磷脂脂肪酸之间呈显著相关关系.在全年水平上,混交林土壤真菌/细菌比值始终高于格木林和马尾松林,表明格木与马尾松混交更有利于提高土壤生态系统的稳定性.     

纯林和混交林中拟赤杨材性的比较分析

对拟赤杨（Alniphyllum fortunei Makino）纯林、拟赤杨-马尾松（Pinus massoniana Lamb．）混交林和拟赤杨-杉木[Cunninghamia lanceolata（Lamb．）Hook．]混交林中拟赤杨木材的物理力学性质和化学组分进行了测定和比较分析。结果表明,混交林中拟赤杨的木材密度、干缩系数和力学强度均大于纯林,且拟赤杨-马尾松混交林中拟赤杨木材的各指标值均最高。拟赤杨-杉木混交林中拟赤杨木材的热水抽出物、1％NaOH抽出物、苯醇抽出物、硝酸-乙醇纤维素和Klason木素含量分别为2．31％、18．63％、2．52％、45．74％和21．59％,均高于纯林;拟赤杨-马尾松混交林中拟赤杨木材的戊聚糖含量（22．98％）高于纯林。说明拟赤杨-马尾松混交林中拟赤杨木材的材性总体上最优,在拟赤杨木材品质培育过程中宜选择马尾松作为伴生树种。     

杉木,火力楠纯林及其混交林细根分布,分解与养分归还

用土钻法研究了杉木,火力楠纯林和混交林的细根分布,用分解袋法研究了杉木和火力楠细根的分解,计算了３个林分中细根分解的Ｎ、Ｐ,Ｋ,Ｃａ,Ｍｇ的归还量,活细根的垂直分布以火力楠纯林层次性最强,混交林次之,杉木纯林最差。     

浙江省马尾松生态公益林凋落物及与群落特征关系

在浙江10.18万km2的区域内,有代表性地调查了12个县共24个马尾松生态公益林样地的凋落物。研究表明:马尾松林年均凋落量为257.9g/(m2.a),其中叶凋落含量为84.6%,枝、果实、皮、碎屑凋落含量分别为4.7%、4.2%、2.0%和4.5%。不同地区间比较表明,浙西北、浙中、浙南3个自然区域间年凋落量无显著差异(p>0.05),沿海则明显低于其它地区。年凋落量与马尾松林龄呈对数相关(p<0.01);年凋落量与马尾松的胸径、树高、生物量及群落生物量间也呈对数相关关系(p<0.01)。同龄林凋落量比较及凋落量与植物多样性关系表明:马尾松纯林的凋落量小于非纯林,且乔木种类越多,凋落量越多。从凋落物角度分析,马尾松纯林的生态效益较低,不利于林地自肥、保水及进一步的植被恢复。     

杉楠混交与人工杉木林自养机制的恢复

自养机制的形成是人工林可持续经营的目标之一.本研究通过混交模拟杉木人工林不同恢复阶段林分,观察比较发现从退化的杉木林阶段到地带性树种比例较低的混交林、地带性树种比例较高的混交林和地带性树种纯林阶段凋落量、N、P、K、Ca和Mg5种元素的归还量逐渐增加,特别是5种养分元素的循环速率也不断增大,其中N、Mg的循环速率由杉木纯林的0.1左右增大到火力楠纯林的0.5以上,与此同时林分土壤有机质含量和养分含量也不断增加,表明退化杉木人工林在恢复过程中随着林内地带性火力楠树种混交比例的增加,林分的自养机制逐渐获得重建.从杉木人工林可持续经营角度来看,杉阔混交比例的确定应以林分自养机制的形成和土壤养分状况的改善为标准.

New amino-dithiaphospholanes and phosphoramidodithioites and their rhodium and iridium complexes

New sulfur derivatives of phosphoramidite ligands were synthesized and the impact of the sulfur unit on the spectroscopic properties of their rhodium and iridium complexes was investigated. The new ligands Bn₂NPSCH₂CH₂S^a(P-S^a) (Bn = benzyl, 4), Bn₂NPSCHCHS^a(CH₂)₃C^aH₂(P-S^a)(C^a-S^a) (6) and Bn₂NP(4-XC₆H₄OMe)₂ (X = S, 7a; X = O, 7b) were converted to the rhodium and iridium complexes trans-[Rh(CO)Cl(L)₂] (L = 4, 6, 7), [RhCl(COD)(L)] (L = 4, 6, 7), [IrCl(COD)(7a)] and [IrCl₂Cp∗(6)]. For comparison, some phosphoramidite complexes of these formulations also were synthesized. The new metal complexes were spectroscopically analyzed. For the carbonyl complexes, the ν_CO IR stretching frequencies were lower than for the corresponding phosphite and phosphoramidite ligands. The ¹J_PRh coupling constants for the rhodium complexes with the new ligands were also smaller than for the respective phosphoramidite and phosphite complexes. Finally, the ¹J_PSe coupling constants of the selenides of the new ligands were lower than those of the phosphoramidite ligands but higher than for PPh₃. The spectroscopic data reveal that the new thio ligands 4, 6 and 7a are more electron donating than phosphites and phosphoramidites but less electron donating than PPh₃.     

Astrocytes and Synaptosomes Transport and Metabolize Lactate and Acetate Differently

Astrocytes transport the monocarboxylate acetate, but synaptosomes do not. The reason for this is unknown, because both preparations express monocarboxylate transporters (MCT). The transport and metabolism of lactate, another monocarboxylate, was examined in these two preparations, and the results were compared to those for acetate. Lactate transport is more rapid in astrocytes than in synaptosomes, but of lower affinity (Kms of 17 and 4 mM, respectively). Lactate (0.2 mM) is metabolized to CO2 more rapidly in synaptosomes than in astrocytes (rates of 0.37 and 0.07 nmol x mg protein(-1) x min(-1), respectively). The reason for this is unclear, but cellular differences in lactate dehydrogenase isotype expression may be involved. Acetate is metabolized to CO2 more rapidly in astrocytes than in synaptosomes (rates of 0.43 and 0.02 nmol x mg protein(-1) x min(-1), respectively). This is likely due to cellular differences in the expression of monocarboxylate transporter subtypes.

The first and second sessions of the Workshop focussed on the basics of ultrasound and infrasound, their applications in both industry and medicine, and metrology and protection standards for ultrasound applications.     

Relative and combined effects of ethanol and protein deficiency on strontium and barium bone content and fecal and urinary excretion

To elucidate accumulation of minerals in human iliac arteries with aging, the content of minerals was analyzed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Bilateral common, internal, and external iliac arteries of 16 men and 8 women, ranging ages from 65 to 93 yr, were examined. It was found that an extremely high accumulation of calcium and phosphorus occurred in the common iliac artery at old age, being higher than that of the internal and external iliac arteries. It should be noted that the accumulation of calcium and phosphorus is the highest in the common iliac artery among the human arteries examined to date. Regarding sexual differences, the content of calcium and phosphorus in the common and internal iliac arteries was higher in women than in men, whereas their content in the external iliac artery was lower in women than in men.     

Prostaglandin and thromboxane production by human and guinea-pig macrophages and leucocytes

The ability of partially purified human and guinea-pig haematogenous cell populations, when cultured in vitro, to metabolise arachidonic acid (AA) has been studied. Supernatants from 24 hour cell culture have been subjected to analysis for products of AA metabolism by gas chromatography with electron-capture detection.The cell types studied were human peripheral blood monocytes (both glass adherent and non-adherent), neutrophils, eosinophils and leukemic leucocytes; thoracic duct lymphocytes and lung alveolar macrophages. From the guinea-pig, induced and non-induced macrophage or neutrophil enriched peritoneal exudate populations, lymph node cells, peritoneal eosinophils and peripheral blood platelets were examined. Supernatants were assayed for the presence of PGE₂, PGD₂, PGF_2α, TXB₂ and 6-keto-PGF_1α. In all types studied PGE₂ and TXB₂ were the major products formed. The identification of PGE₂ and TXB₂ was confirmed by GC/MS with multiple ion monitoring.The results have been compared with other reports and their possible significance discussed in relation to the proposed role of prostaglandins as mediators and modulators in immunopathology.     

Chemokines and cytokines: axis and allies in asthma and allergy

Allergic asthma can be precipitated by many factors. For the atopic person, fungus, pollen, dust mites, cockroach antigens, and diesel exhaust are all agents that may trigger an allergic attack. Cytokines and chemokines are integral mediators of fungal asthma. From the earliest time points, they recruit and activate the cells required for the clearance of fungus as well as being critical factors involved in the immunopathology of this disease. In the final analysis, it is clear that these mediators can act to the benefit or the detriment of the host.     

Oxidation and nitration of ribonuclease and lysozyme by peroxynitrite and myeloperoxidase

In spite of the many studies on protein modifications by reactive species, knowledge about the products resulting from the oxidation of protein-aromatic residues, including protein-derived radicals and their stable products, remains limited. Here, we compared the oxidative modifications promoted by peroxynitrite and myeloperoxidase/hydrogen peroxide/nitrite in two model proteins, ribonuclease (6Tyr) and lysozyme (3Tyr/6Trp). The formation of protein-derived radicals and products was higher at pH 5.4 and 7.4 for myeloperoxidase and peroxynitrite, respectively. The main product was 3-nitro-Tyr for both proteins and oxidants. Lysozyme rendered similar yields of nitro-Trp, particularly when oxidized by peroxynitrite. Hydroxylated and dimerized products of Trp and Tyr were also produced, but in lower yields. Localization of the main modified residues indicates that peroxynitrite decomposes to radicals within the proteins behaving less specifically than myeloperoxidase. Nitrogen dioxide is emphasized as an important protein modifier.
