Acetylene reduction activity of intact rice plants was measured in closed assay chambers with plants grown in water culture. Acetylene was added to the liquid medium, and the ethylene formed was measured from both gas and liquid phases. After cutoff of mineral nitrogen supply and inoculation of fresh soil, rice plants grown from the seedling stage in water culture exhibited acetylene reduction activity after a lag period. However, rice plants grown in a paddy field and transferred to water culture were more suitable for N2 fixation studies because of their higher, less variable acetylene reduction activity. The time course of acetylene reduction was monitored by continuous circulation of gas between the gas phase and the liquid phase, and the result showed an initial 2- or 3-h period of lower activity, followed by increased and almost constant activity up to 24 h. The effects on acetylene reduction activity of aeration, ammonium, chloramphenicol, and 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea addition are reported. Ammonium was inhibitive at 0.33 mM, and its depressive effect was alleviated by ammonium uptake by the plants. 相似文献

Tidal volume, respiratory frequency, and minute volume were measured with total body plethysmography. Both hypercapnic (0-7% CO2) and hypoxic (13-21% O2) gas mixtures caused "dose" related hyperventilation in the hamsters. However, there was no synergism between combined stimuli. Rats exhibited greater hyperventilation than the hamsters during hypercapnic + hypoxic and hypercapnic exposures. Hamsters responded more than the rats to hypoxia alone. Greater blood buffering capacity of hamsters is a possible explanation for the species differences in ventilatory sensitivity. 相似文献

Potato callus and cell suspensions of potato and soybean were exogenously supplied with potato phytoalexin rishitin, much of which was converted by both species to an unknown tenatively identified as glutinosone. Exogenous lubimin was unaffected by the potato cell culture, but was transformed to 15-dihydro lubimin by the soybean cell suspensions. The stability of the exogenous lubimin may be ascribed to a second block in the rishitin pathway of the potato cell culture.Abbreviations MS

Changes in Canadian rates of mortality from barbiturates are examined, and their relation to barbiturate use in the general population is discussed. While the number of deaths attributed to barbiturates quadrupled, from 63 in 1950 to 232 in 1963, there has been a concomitant decrease in the number of deaths from inhalation of utility gas.Combined rates for deaths from utility gas and barbiturates declined steadily for most age groups between 1950-52, 1955-57, and 1959-63. It is possible that the increased mortality from barbiturates represents a change in fashion in regard to method of suicide. Changed mortality from barbiturates is not a valid measure of the extent to which consumption of barbiturates has increased in the Canadian population. 相似文献

Diffusion of CO2 inside leaves is generally regarded to be from the substomatal cavities to the assimilating tissues, i.e. in the vertical direction of the leaf blades. However, lateral gas diffusion within intercellular air spaces may be much more effective than hitherto considered. In a previous work it was demonstrated that, when 'clamp-on' leaf chambers are used, leaf internal 'CO2 leakage' beyond the leaf chamber gaskets may seriously affect gas exchange measurement. This effect has been used in the present paper to quantify gas conductance (g(leaf,l), mmol m(-2) s(-1)) in the lateral directions within leaves and significant differences between homo- and heterobaric leaves were observed. For the homobaric leaves, lateral gas conductance measured over a distance of 6 or 8 mm (the widths of the chamber gaskets) was 2-20% of vertical conductance taken from published data measured over much smaller distances of 108-280 microm (the thickness of the leaves). The specific internal gas diffusion properties of the leaves have been characterized by gas conductivities (g*(leaf), micromol m(-1) s(-1)). Gas conductivities in the lateral directions of heterobaric leaves were found to be small but not zero. In homobaric leaves, they were between 67 and 209 micromol m(-1) s(-1) and thus even larger than those in the vertical direction of the leaf blades (between 15 and 78 micromol m(-1) s(-1)). The potential implications for experimentalists performing gas exchange measurements are discussed. 相似文献

The effect of gas density on the spectral content of forced expiratory wheezes was studied in the search for additional information on the mechanism of generation of respiratory wheezes. Five normal adults performed forced vital capacity maneuvers through four or five orifice resistors (0.4-1.92 cm ID) after breathing air, 80% He-20% O2, or 80% SF6-20% O2. Tracheal lung sounds, flow, volume, and airway opening (Pao) and esophageal (Pes) pressures were measured during duplicate runs for each orifice and gas. Wheezes were detected in running spectra of lung sounds by use of a frequency domain peak detection algorithm. The wheeze spectrograms were presented along side expiratory flow rate and transpulmonary pressure (Ptp = Pao - Pes) as function of volume. The frequencies and patterns of wheeze spectrograms were evaluated for gas density effects. We found that air, He, and SF6 had similar wheeze spectrograms. Both wheeze frequency and patterns (as function of volume) did not exhibit consistent changes with gas density. Speech tone, however, was substantially affected in the usual pattern. These observations support the hypothesis that airway wall vibratory motion, rather than gas phase oscillations, is the source of acoustic energy of wheezes. 相似文献

Pressure, flow, and density relationships in airway models during constant-flow ventilation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Adequate CO2 elimination and normal arterial PCO2 levels can be maintained in dogs during apnea by delivering a continuous flow of inspired gas at high flow rate (1-3 l.min-1.kg-1) through tubes placed in the main-stem bronchi. However, during constant-flow ventilation (CFV) the mean alveolar pressure is increased, causing increased lung volume despite low pressures in the trachea. We hypothesized that the increased dynamic alveolar pressures during CFV were due to momentum transfer from the high-velocity jet stream to resident gas in the lung. To test this, we simulated CFV in straight tubes and in a branched airway model to determine whether changes in gas flow rate (V), gas density (rho), and tube diameter (D) altered the pressure difference (delta P) between alveoli and airway opening in a manner consistent with that predicted by conservation of momentum. Momentum analysis predicts that delta P should vary with V2, whereas measurements yielded a dependence of V1.69 in branched tubes and V1.9 in straight tubes. Substitution of heliox (80% He-20% O2) for air significantly reduced lung hyperinflation during CFV. As predicted by momentum transfer, delta P varied with rho 1.0. Momentum analysis also predicts that delta P should vary with D-2.0, whereas measurements indicated a dependence on D-2.02. The influence of V and rho on depth of penetration of the jet down the airway was explored in a straight tube model by varying the flow rate and gas used. The influence of geometry on penetration was measured by changing the ratio of jet-to-airway tube diameters.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

An electron-capture gas chromatographic procedure was developed for the analysis of 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine (CPHP), a metabolite of haloperidol. The assay involved basic extraction of this metabolite from the biological samples, followed by back-extraction with HCl. After basification of the acid phase, extractive derivatization with pentafluorobenzoyl chloride in toluene was conducted. The pentafluorobenzoyl derivative was quantified on a gas chromatograph equipped with a fused-silica capillary column, an electron-capture detector and a printer-integrator. N-(3-Trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine was carried through the procedure as an internal standard and calibration curves were determined for each assay run. The procedure was demonstrated to be linear and reproducible and was utilized to detect and quantify CPHP in urine, plasma, brain and liver samples from rats treated with haloperidol. The structure of the derivatized metabolite was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. 相似文献

Gas vesicles are strengthened by the outer-surface protein,GvpC 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The critical collapse pressure of gas vesicles isolated from Anabaena flos-aquae decreased from 0.557 to 0.190 MPa when GvpC, the hydrophilic 22 kDa protein present on the outer surface of the gas vesicle, was removed by rising in 6 M urea. Recombinant GvpC was purified from inclusion bodies, produced in an E. coli strain containing an expression vector bearing the gene ecoding GvpC from A. flos-aquae, and then solubilised in 6 M urea. This recombinant GvpC became bound to gas vesicles that had been stripped of their native protein, when the urea was removed by dialysis; the amount which bound increased with the concentration of GvpC present. The critical pressure of these reconstituted gas vesicles increased to 0.533 MPa, 96% of the original value. These results indicate that the function of GvpC is to increase the strength of the structure.Non-standard abbreviations SBTI

The relationship between ammonium assimilation and ammonium export has been studied in free-living, N2-fixing Rhizobium sp. 32H1. After 55 to 67 h of microaerobic growth under a gas phase of 0.2% O2 – 1.0% CO2 – 98.8% Ar high levels of nitrogenase were observed concomitant with a slightly adenylylated glutamine synthetase (GSI) and some glutamine synthetase (GSII) activity. However, after growth of 89 h, or longer, GSI became adenylylated and the level of GSII had decreased. When the gas phase was shifted to 0.2% O2 – 1.0% CO2 – 98.8% N2, a lag was observed before ammonium export could be detected in the 55 to 67 h cultures. No lag in ammonium export was observed in the cultures previously grown for 89 h. The onset of ammonium export in the 55 to 67 h cultures was found to correlate with the adenylylation state of GSI. There appeared to be no correlation between the level of GSII and the export of ammonium. Neither an increase in the adenylylation level of GSI nor ammonium export was observed when the 55 to 67 h cultures were maintained under the Ar gas mixture.Abbreviations GOGAT

The effects of an intravenous methacholine infusion on cardiovascular-pulmonary function were measured in seven mongrel dogs (22.0 +/- 2.8 kg), anesthetized with chloralose and urethan and beta-adrenergically blocked with propranolol. In a volume-displacement plethysmograph, physiological measurements were made at base line and 25 min after establishing a methacholine infusion (0.1-1.0 mg X kg-1 X h-1). Methacholine significantly (P less than 0.05) increased airways resistance (1.9 +/- 0.8 to 8.2 +/- 2.9 cmH2O X l-1 X s), decreased static lung compliance (84.7 +/- 18.5 to 48.2 +/- 9.4 ml/cmH2O), depressed arterial PO2 (81 +/- 17 to 56 +/- 10 Torr), and lowered blood pressure (132 +/- 10 to 69 +/- 18 Torr) and cardiac output (5.7 +/- 1.9 to 4.1 +/- 1.2 l/min). These effects persisted during a further 80 min of methacholine infusion conducted in five of the animals. During the initial 25-min period of methacholine, the end-expired volume (volume-displacement Krogh spirometer) rose in all animals, indicating an increase in functional residual capacity from 997 +/- 115 to 1,623 +/- 259 ml (P less than 0.0005). Analysis of pulmonary pressure-volume curves revealed no change in total lung capacity but an increase in residual volume from 489 +/- 168 to 1,106 +/- 216 ml (P less than 0.001). Thus methacholine caused 617 ml of gas trapping, which was not detected by the Boyle's law principle, presumably because gas was trapped at high transpulmonary pressure. We suggest that intravenous methacholine-induced canine bronchoconstriction, which causes gas trapping and hypoxia, may be a useful animal model of clinical status asthmaticus. 相似文献

Geometric consequences of electron delocalization were studied for all possible adenine tautomers in aqueous solution by means of ab initio methods {PCM(water)//DFT(B3LYP)/6-311+G(d,p)} and compared to those in the gas phase {DFT(B3LYP)/6-311+G(d,p)}. To measure the consequences of any type of resonance conjugation (π-π, n-π, and σ-π), the geometry-based harmonic oscillator model of electron delocalization (HOMED) index, recently extended to the isolated (DFT) and hydrated (PCM//DFT) molecules, was applied to the molecular fragments (imidazole, pyrimidine, 4-aminopyrimidine, and purine) and also to the whole tautomeric system. For individual tautomers, the resonance conjugations and consequently the bond lengths strongly depend on the position of the labile protons. The HOMED indices are larger for tautomers (or their fragments) possessing the labile proton(s) at the N rather than C atom. Solvent interactions with adenine tautomers slightly increase the resonance conjugations. Consequently, they slightly shorten the single bonds and lengthen the double bonds. When going from the gas phase to water solution, the HOMED indices increase (by less than 0.15 units). There is a good relation between the HOMED indices estimated in water solution and those in the gas phase for the neutral and ionized forms of adenine. Subtle effects, being a consequence of intramolecular interactions between the neighboring groups, are so strongly reduced by solvent that the relation between the HOMED indices and the relative energies for the neutral adenine tautomers seems to be better in water solution than in the gas phase.

The tracheal system of harvestmen consists of two stem tracheae, which give rise to higher order tracheae that supply the extremities and internal organs. In this study, we used stereological morphometric methods to investigate diffusing capacities of the walls ('lateral diffusing capacity') of the tracheae of adult males and females of Nemastoma lugubre. Diffusing barriers of the tracheal walls tend to be thinnest (0.17-0.19 microm) for the smallest tracheae (inner diameter 0.5-2 microm). In other tracheal classes the diffusing barriers increase with increasing diameters. Calculation of the mass-specific diffusing capacity for oxygen (D(O2)) of the walls of all higher order tracheae revealed 10.57 microl min(-1)g(-1)kPa(-1) for the females (mean body mass 3.8 mg) and 25.23 microl min(-1)g(-1)kPa(-1) for the males (mean body mass 1.4 mg). In both animal groups, the main D(O2) (58-67%) lies in the tracheae with an inner diameter of 0.5-2 microm, but also tracheae up to an inner diameter of 20 microm allow gas exchange via the tracheal walls. Stem tracheae are of no importance for lateral diffusion. Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that the functional morphology of the tracheal system of harvestmen represents an 'intermediate state' between the tracheal system of insects in which gas exchange is focused on the distal portions and that of spiders, in which the walls of all tracheae serve in gas exchange. 相似文献

The adult beetles Aphthona lacertosa and Aphthona nigriscutis, used as biocontrol agents for leafy spurge, had a complex mixture of hydrocarbons on their cuticular surface consisting of alkanes, methylalkanes, alkenes and alkadienes as determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A trace amount of wax esters were present. In both species, the hydrocarbons were the major cuticular lipid class and the gas chromatographic profiles of the total hydrocarbons were similar. However, the profiles for the saturated hydrocarbon fraction were distinct for each species. Alkanes (n-alkanes and methyl-branched alkanes), alkenes and alkadienes comprised 26, 44 and 30%, respectively, for A. lacertosa, and 48, 26 and 26%, respectively, for A. nigriscutis, of the total hydrocarbons. The major methyl-branched hydrocarbons were 2-methylalkanes: 2-methyloctacosane and 2-methyltriacontane. The major monoene was hentriacontene and the major diene was tritriacontadiene. The species were unique in that a number of di- and trimethyl-branched alkanes were present in minor quantities in which the first methyl branch was on carbon 2 or 3. Examples of structures were 2,10-, 2,12-, 2,6-, 2,4- and 3,7-dimethylalkanes. 2,10,12-Trimethylalkanes and a 2,10,12,24-tetramethylalkane with one methylene between adjacent methyl branch points also were identified. The adjacent methyl branch points of the 2,4- and 2,10,12- and 2,10,12,24-methyl-branched alkanes appeared to cause additional fragmentations in the mass spectra. Dimethylalkanes with an odd number of carbons in the backbone of the molecule were identified as 2,23-dimethylnonacosane and 2,25-dimethylhentriacontane; their mass spectra also corresponded to mass spectra expected for a 2,6 branching sequence. However, a 2,6 branching sequence is not biosynthetically feasible because such a structure has a straight-chain tail with an odd number of carbon atoms beyond the last methyl branch point. The 2,23 and 2,25 branching sequences could be synthesized starting with a primer derived from the amino acid leucine which would account for both the even number of carbons between the branch points and an even number of carbons beyond the last methyl branch point. 相似文献

BioDeNOx is a novel technique for NOx removal from industrial flue gases. In principle, BioDeNOx is based on NO absorption into an aqueous Fe(II)EDTA2- solution combined with biological regeneration of that scrubber liquor in a bioreactor. The technical and economical feasibility of the BioDeNOx concept is strongly determined by high rate biological regeneration of the aqueous Fe(II)EDTA2- scrubber liquor and by EDTA degradation. This investigation deals with the Fe(II)EDTA2- regeneration capacity and EDTA degradation in a lab-scale BioDeNOx reactor (10-20 mM Fe(II)EDTA2-, pH 7.2 +/- 0.2, 55 degrees C), treating an artificial flue gas (1.5 m3/h) containing 60-155 ppm NO and 3.5-3.9% O2. The results obtained show a contradiction between the optimal redox state of the aqueous FeEDTA solution for NO absorption and the biological regeneration. A low redox potential (below -150 mV vs. Ag/AgCl) is needed to obtain a maximal NO removal efficiency from the gas phase via Fe(II)EDTA2- absorption. Fe(III)EDTA- reduction was found to be too slow to keep all FeEDTA in the reduced state. Stimulation of Fe(III)EDTA- reduction via periodical sulfide additions (2 mM spikes twice a week for the conditions applied in this study) was found to be necessary to regenerate the Fe(II)EDTA2- scrubber liquor and to achieve stable operation at redox potentials below -150 mV (pH 7.2 +/- 0.2). However, redox potentials of below -200 mV should be avoided since sulfide accumulation is unwanted because it is toxic for NO reduction. Very low values for biomass growth rate and yield, respectively, 0.043/d and 0.009 mg protein per mg ethanol, were observed. This might be due to substrate limitations, that is the electron acceptors NO and presumably polysulfide, or to physiological stress conditions induced by the EDTA rich medium or by radicals formed in the scrubber upon the oxidation of Fe(II)EDTA2- by oxygen present in the flue gas. Radicals possibly also induce EDTA degradation, which occurs at a substantial rate: 2.1 (+/-0.1) mM/d under the conditions investigated. 相似文献

To attempt to develop physicochemical and physiological modelling for methane transport from the rhizosphere to the atmosphere through rice plants, methane flux, methane concentration in the soil water, and the biomass of rice were measured in lysimeter rice paddies (2.5 × 4 m, depth 2.0 m) once per week throughout the entire growing season in 1992 at Tsukuba, Japan. The addition of exogenous organic matter (rice straw) or soil amendments with the presence or absence of vegetation were also examined for their influence on methane emissions. The total methane emission over the growing season varied from 3.2 g CH4 m-2 y-1 without the addition of rice straw to 49.7 g CH4 m-2 y-1 with rice straw and microbiological amendment. In the unvegetated plot with the addition of rice straw, there was much ebullition of gas bubbles, particularly in the summer. The annual methane emission due to the ebullition of gas bubbles,from the unvegetated plot with the addition of rice straw was estimated to be almost the same as that from the vegetated site with the addition of rice straw. In the early growth stage, the methane flux can be analyzed by the diffusion model (Flux=Methane concentration × Conductance of rice body) using parameters for methane concentration in the soil water as a difference in concentration between the atmosphere and the rhizosphere, and for the biomass of rice as a conductance of rice body. On the other hand, although the diffusion model was inapplicable to a large extent from the middle to late growth stage, methane flux could be estimated by air temperature and concentration in the soil water. Thus, methane transport from the rhizosphere to the atmosphere through rice plants consisted of two phases: one was an explainable small part by diffusion in rice body; the other was a large part strongly, governed by air temperature. The existence of gas bubbles in the soil may be related to the transition between the two phases 相似文献

Within the genus Polygonum a large variation was found between species with regard to stomatal number, gas phase resistance, intracellular resistance and dark respiration. Interspecific variation in CO2 compensation concentration and intercellular CO2 concentration at constant external concentration were comparatively small. Correlations were found between stomatal number and gas phase resistance, stomatal number and Γ, and Γ and the product of dark respiration rate and intracellular resistance. The influence of dark respiration and stomatal number on photosynthetic gas exchange is discussed. It was concluded that dark respiration in light was enhanced by 22% as a mean value in 9 Polygonum species and by 62% in Polygonum lapathifolium . 相似文献

The [(2RS,3RS)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1- yl)-pentan-3-ol] (paclobutrazol, PP333) measured in apple seedlings (`York Imperial' Malus domestica Borkh) was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Data showed that paclobutrazol was taken up through roots and transported primarily in the xylem through the stems and accumulated in leaves. No detectable basipetal movement of paclobutrazol in apple seedlings was found. 相似文献
