Twelve of the main European LCA software packages currently available are examined wirh the aim of establishing which are
the most appropriate for LCAs on industrial processes. The packages performances are assessed in terms of
The review concludes with a Specification Table which summarises the facilities available on each software package.
The general conclusion from this study is that for industrially based LCAs, there are four packages which may offer advantages
over the rest. These are The Boustead Model, The Ecobilan Group’s TEAM™, PEMS 3.0 and SimaPro 3.1. 相似文献

| (1) | 1. Invertebrate (chironomid and gastropod) food for ducklings and adult Tufted ducks increased substantially. |
| (2) | 2. Tufted duckling brood use of the lake increased greatly and Tufted duckling survival appears to have increased. |
| (3) | 3. Shoveler and Pochard nested successfully for the first time. |
| (4) | 4. Submerged aquatic macrophytes grew profusely over the lake bed for the first time leading directly to large increases in use of the Lake by wintering herbivorous waterfowl. |
| (5) | 5. When fish were re-introduced to the Main Lake sampling bay the increases in invertebrate abundance and, to a less marked extent, macrophyte abundance were reversed. |

In recent years anthropologists have made much progress in understanding ancient activities from skeletal remains. In this
paper, material from the Iron Age cemetery at Pontecagnano (VII-IV century BC) is used to illustrate activity-related traits
of eight basic categories:
These traits, and others, can be used not only singly but in conjunction to define (a) patterns of activity and occupational
specialization for individuals, and (b) distributions within society reflecting the basic division of labor by geneder and
class. 相似文献

The conclusions about the development of the content of the LC Initiative are the following:
相似文献
| – | A specific niche for the Life Cycle Initiative has developed, compared with the role of SETAC, the International Society of Industrial Ecology (ISIE) and ISO. |
| – | The aims of the initiative have step by step been extended, by bringing the initiative at a world level, by including both LCI and LCIA, and by including a program on Life Cycle Management (LCM). |
| – | In the LCM program due attention is to be given to other tools and approaches than quantitative LCA which are relevant for life-cycle thinking in general, and also to the other two dimensions of sustainability, i.e. the social and economic dimensions. |
| – | A number of important questions regarding the scope of the initiative and the methodological set-up have been in-depth discussed, thus resulting in a clear basis for the technical content of work to come. |
| – | Three definition studies will now be implemented which will define the work program for the three programs of the initiative; these studies will be finalised by the end of 2002. |

Culture studies with healthy and virus-infected isolates of Ectocarpus siliculosus, Feldmannia simplex and F. irregularis gave the following results:
相似文献
| – | Virus particles are produced in deformed reproductive organs (sporangia or gametangia) of the hosts and are released into the surrounding seawater. |
| – | Their infective potential is lost after several days of storage under laboratory conditions. |
| – | New infections occur when gametes or spores of the host get in contact with virus particles. The virus genome enters all cells of the developing new plant via mitosis. |
| – | Virus expression is variable, and in many cases the viability of the host is not impaired. Infected host plants may be partly fertile and pass the infection to their daughter plants. |
| – | Meiosis of the host can eliminate the virus genome and generate healthy progeny. |
| – | The genome of the Ectocarpus virus consists of dsDNA. Meiotic segregation patterns suggest an intimate association between virus genome and host chromosomes. |
| – | An extra-generic host range has been demonstrated for the Ectocarpus virus. |
| – | Field observations suggest that virus infections in ectocarpalean algae occur on all coasts of the world, and many or all Ectocarpus and Feldmannia populations are subject to contact with virus genomes. |

Summary

| 1. | The phenotype of the ‘assimilated bithorax’ stock is due in part to a number of genes, on all the chromosomes, which act directly on the individuals containing them, and partly to a recessive X-chromosome condition which causes a maternal effect. |
| 2. | Attempts to break down the maternal-effect condition by crossing-over were unsuccessful. |
| 3. | The maternal effect condition, when made homozygous in a wild-type background, causes the appearance of some bithoraxes in the next generation. |
| 4. | The condition may have arisen by mutation during the course of the selection by which the assimilated stock was built up, but it may have been present in very low frequency in the initial population. |
| 5. | The offspring of females homozygous for the maternal-effect condition do not produce a higher percentage of bithoraxes, following ether treatment, than do flies of similar genotype from other mothers. |

| (1) | The inactivation of various forms of nucleoside transport with reagents blocking thiol groups was studied in whole cells ofE. coli B. No positive correlation between the efficiency of active transport and the extent or rate of inactivation could be demonstrated. |
| (2) | The most efficient constitutive nucleoside-transporting system was found to comprise a specific thiol component characterized by low rate of inactivation with N-ethylmaleimide; the less efficient inducible transport and the facilitated diffusion of guanosine require the integrity of another thiol component which is rapidly inactivated with N-ethylmaleimide. |
| (3) | The constitutive nucleoside-transporting system is completely inactivated with T4 phage, while other modes of nucleoside transport are much less affected. |
| (4) | Inactivation of constitutive transporting system in cells exposed to N-ethylmaleimide for a limited period of time continues long after the inhibitor has been removed, indicating storage of the inhibitor in some cellular compartment. Addition of dithiothreitol stops the inactivation immediately. |

| 1. | The reactions of tympanic nerve fibers ofLocusta migratoria were recorded by glass microelectrodes in the metathoracic ganglion. |
| 2. | The units were classified by frequency-, intensity-, and directional characteristics as well as by their response pattern. The response to speciesspecific song is compared with the response to song ofEphippiger ephippiger. |
| 3. | The physiological properties lead to a classification into three types of low-frequency neurons (characteristic frequency 3.5–4 kHz; 4kHz; 5.5–6 kHz) and one type of high-frequency neuron (12–20 kHz). This is similar to other species (Gray, 1960, Michelsen, 1971). |
| 4. | Intensity-coding is done by sharp rising intensity characteristics and by different absolute thresholds of the units. |
| 5. | There is a marked directional sensitivity with some differences between LF and HF units. In the low frequency range the tympanal organ seems to react as a pressure gradient receiver; for high frequencies another mechanism is discussed. |
| 6. | No filtering of species-specific song takes place at the level of the receptor cells. |

In the rift valley (North-East of France/South-West of Germany), the Rhine runs freely for 300 km from South to North. The absence of natural obstacles allows the development of a very regular profile of the river. We have therefore an opportunity to study very gradual modifications of the alluvial forest communities of the fluvial corridor from upstream to downstream, according to the gradual evolution of the ecological factors, related to slope decrease and hydrological modifications.We describe, from Basel to Mainz:

We hypothesized that manganese deficient animals fed high vs moderate levels of polyunsaturated fat would either manifest
evidence of increased oxidative stress or would experience compensatory changes in antioxidant enzymes and/or shifts in manganese
utilization that result in decreased endogenous gut manganese losses. Rats (females in Study 1, males in Study 2,n = 8/treatment) were fed diets that contained 5 or 20% corn oil by weight and either 0.01 or 1.5 μmol manganese/g diet. In
study 2,54Mn complexed to albumin was injected into the portal vein to assess gut endogenous losses of manganese. The manganese deficient
rats:
Gut endogenous losses of manganese tended to account for a smaller proportion of absorbed manganese in rats fed high-fat diets;
otherwise fat intake had few effects on tissue manganese concentrations. 相似文献

| 1. | We used laser vibrometry and free field sound stimulation to study the frequency responses of the eardrum and the lateral body wall of awake male Eleutherodactylus coqui. |
| 2. | The eardrum snowed one of two distinct frequency responses depending on whether the glottis was open (GO response) or closed (GC response) during the measurement. |
| 3. | The lateral body wall vibrated with a maximum amplitude close to that of the eardrum and in the same frequency range. |
| 4. | Covering the frog's body wall with vaseline reduced the vibration amplitude of the GC response by up to 15 dB. |
| 5. | When a closed sound delivery system was used to stimulate a local area of the body wall the eardrum also showed one of two types of responses. |
| 6. | These results suggest that sound is transmitted via the lung cavity to the internal surface of the eardrum. This lung input has a significant influence on the vibrations of the eardrum even when the glottis is closed. |
| 7. | The vibration amplitude of the eardrum changed with the angle of sound incidence. The directionality was most pronounced in a narrow frequency range between the two main frequencies of the conspecific advertisement call. |

To compare the efficiency of various whole cell immobilization techniques for the production of gluconic acid by Aspergillus niger were investigated using potassium ferrocyanide-treated cane molasses as the substrate. The techniques followed were:
A comparative analysis of yield has revealed that calcium alginate entrapment was the most suitable technique as it had given the maximum product yield (0.40 g gluconic acid/g total reducing sugar supplied). The properties of immobilized A.niger in sodium alginate gel have been thoroughly investigated and compared with those of free cells under most suitable conditions of fermentation. 相似文献

| 1. | Paramecium bursaria was stimulated by a light spot of 10–15 m diameter, and the photosensitive site was searched by recording responses in swimming behavior and in membrane potential. |
| 2. | Local stimulation to the anterior half of the cell caused an avoiding response. |
| 3. | Stimulation to the cells deciliated by ethanol treatment elicited a depolarization of the membrane potential. |
| 4. | Local stimulation to the anteroventral portion elicited a depolarization, but stimulation to the dorsal side induced no change in the membrane potential. |
| 5. | The action spectrum of depolarization elicited by local stimulation to the anteroventral surface showed two main peaks at 420 nm and 560 nm, corresponding to those of light stimulation of the whole cell. |
| 6. | It is concluded that a photosensitive site exists on the anteroventral surface ofParamecium, in particular within the oral groove of the cell. This local photosensitivity is discussed with respect to the mating reaction. |

The dissolved CO 2 concentration of stream waters is an important component of the terrestrial carbon cycle and an important pathway for release
of CO2 to the atmosphere. This study uses data from the UK's largest groundwater monitoring network to estimate the importance of
groundwater in contributing excess dissolved CO2 to the atmosphere. The study shows that:
If this were replicated across the UK then the flux of CO2 from rivers would be 0.65 Mt C/year. 相似文献
| (i) | the arithmetic mean concentration of excess dissolved CO2 in the groundwater was 4.99 mg C/I with a standard deviation of 2.53 |
| (ii) | for the groundwater composition of excess dissolved CO2 analysis shows no statistical difference between years but does show a significant intra-annual effect and a significant difference between aquifers |
| (iii) | A weighted average of the estimate the areal export of excess dissolved CO2 from the groundwater of the catchment is between 1.4 and 2.9 t C/km2 |
| (iv) | the flux of excess dissolved CO2 at the catchment outlet over the period between 1975 and 2002 averages 1.79 kt C/year. |
