Specific growth rates of heterotrophic bacterioplankton have been frequently estimated from in situ bacterial production (BP)
to biomass (BB) ratios, using a series of assumptions that may result in serious discrepancies with values obtained from predator-free
cultures. Here, we used both types of approaches together with a comprehensive assessment of single-cell physiological characteristics
(membrane integrity, nucleic acid content, and active respiration) of coastal bacterioplankton during a complete annual cycle
(February 2007–January 2008) in the southern Bay of Biscay off Xixón, Spain. Both leucine and thymidine incorporation rates
were used in conjunction with empirical tracer to carbon or cells conversion factors (eCFs) to accurately derive BP. Leu and
TdR incorporation rates covaried year-round, as did the corresponding eCFs at 0 and 50 m depth. eCFs peaked in autumn, with
mean annual values close to the theoretical ones (3.4 kg C mol Leu−1 and 2.0 × 1018 cells mol TdR−1). Bacterial abundance (0.2–1.5 × 106 cells L−1) showed a bimodal distribution with maxima in May and October and minima in March. Live (membrane-intact) cells dominated
year-round (79–97%), with high nucleic acid cells (42–88%) and actively respiring bacteria (CTC+, 1–16%) showing distinct
surface maxima in April and July, respectively. BB (557–1,558 mg C m−2) and BP (7–139 mg C m−2 day−1) presented two distinct peaks in spring and autumn, both of similar size due to a strong upwelling event observed in September.
Specific growth rates (0.35–3.8 day−1) were one order of magnitude higher in predator-free incubations than bacterial turnover rates derived from integrated BP:BB
ratios (0.01–0.16 and 0.01–0.09 day−1, for Leu and TdR, respectively) and were not correlated, probably due to a significant contribution of low activity cells
to total standing stocks. The Leu:TdR molar ratio averaged for the water column (6.6–25.5) decreased significantly with higher
integrated BB, indicating that low standing stocks tend to present unbalanced growth. Discrepancies about the true magnitude
of specific growth rates must be solved before fully appreciating the role of bacteria in the ocean carbon cycle. 相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and the prostaglandin (PG) synthesis inhibiting effect of flunixin were determined in 6 Norwegian dairy
goats. The dose was 2.2 mg/kg body weight administered by intravenous (i.v.), intramuscular (i.m.) and oral (p.o.) routes
using a cross-over design. Plasma flunixin content was analysed by use of liquid chromatography and the PG synthesis was evaluated
by measuring plasma 15-ketodihydro-PGF2α by a radioimmuno-assay. Results are presented as median (range). The elimination half-lives (t1/2·λ) were 3.6 (2.0–5.0), 3.4 (2.6–6.8) and 4.3 (3.4–6.1) h for i.v., i.m. and p.o. administration, respectively. Volume of distribution
at steady state (Vdss) was 0.35 (0.23–0.41) L/kg and clearance (CL), 110 (60–160) mL/h/kg. The plasma concentrations after oral administration
showed a double-peak phenomenon with the two peaks occurring at 0.37 (0.25–1) and 3.5 (2.5–5.0) h, respectively. Both peaks
were in the same order of magnitude. Bioavailability was 79 (53–112) and 58 (35%–120)% for i.m. and p.o. administration, respectively.
15-Ketodihydro-PGF2α plasma concentrations decreased after flunixin administration independent of the route of administration. 相似文献

The effectiveness of coil UV reactor series for the online sterilization of cheese whey was compared to those of the single conventional and coil reactors at various flow rates (5–70 mL/min). The residence time varied from 168 to 12 min and from 48 to 24 min for the single and the series reactors, respectively. Hundred percent destruction efficiency could not be achieved in the single reactors whereas in the coil reactor series the destruction efficiency reached 100% at the flow rates of 35 and 40 mL/min. The rate of microbial destruction was described by polynomial equation for the single coil reactor and by exponential equations for the single conventional reactor and the coil reactor series. The temperature of the effluent decreased with the increase in flow rate in all the reactors. The maximum effluent temperatures in the single conventional reactor, single coil reactor and coil reactor series were 45.8, 46.1, and 36.4 °C (Δt = 20.8, 21.1, 11.4 °C), respectively. The flow in all the reactors was laminar (R
e
= 1.39–20.10) and the Dean number was in the range of 1.09–15.41 in the coil reactors. Visual observation revealed less fouling on the UV lamps of coil reactors than on that of the conventional reactor due to the impact of Dean flow. The total operating time during which 100% destruction efficiency is achieved prior to the advent of fouling was 240 min in the coil reactor series compared to only 45 min in the conventional reactor. 相似文献

Determination of selenium in the human brain by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

For the investigation of neurological disorders, a development of simple and accessible methods for determining selenium in
human brain samples is required. We devised a method of determining selenium using graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry
(GFAAS). An electrodeless discharge lamp provided the sufficient sensitivity to determine brain selenium. The matrix interferences
were avoided by using high temperature, a prolonged pyrolysis step, and a palladium matrix modifier. The technique of standard
addition was used to evaluate the sample concentrations. The accuracy of the method was confirmed by a bovine liver reference
material. The detection limit of selenium was 0.04 ng. The determined selenium concentrations of human brain cortex and white
matter were higher than those of putamen (115–155 and 206–222 ng/g wet wt, respectively). These GFAAS values agreed with those
obtained by fluorometric analysis (r=0.91,n=10). Moreover, the GFAAS values were compatible to those reported by other researchers (99–274 ng/g wet wt), in which selenium
concentrations in putamen also tended to be higher than the other two regions. We conclude that GFAAS is useful for selenium
analysis in brain samples. 相似文献

We studied the effect of fatigue of the mm. gastrocnemius-soleus on the H reflex elicited by transcutaneous stimulation of n. tibialis and recorded from the m. soleus; healthy 18-to 34-year-old volunteers were tested. Fatigue was evoked by long-lasting (6 to 9 min) voluntary tonic static
sole flexion of the foot (ankle extension) with a force equal to 75% of the maximum voluntary contraction (MVC). The amplitude
of H reflex significantly (P < 0.001) decreased to about 60% of the initial value immediately after the period of fatiguing effort. Within 2 to 3 min,
it relatively rapidly recovered and reached about 90% of the control, and this was followed by a period of slow recovery to
about 96–97% of the initial value 30 min after conditioning fatigue. We suppose that the initial period of suppression of
the H reflex results to a considerable extent in an increase in the intensity of presynaptic inhibition of transmission from
Ia afferents due to tonic activation of high-threshold (groups III and IV) afferent fibers induced by intensive fatigue-related
metabolic changes in the muscles. More long-lasting (tens of minutes) changes are related to slow reverse development of direct
effects of fatigue-induced biochemical shifts in the muscle.

Cryopreservation of shoot-tips by droplet vitrification applicable to all taro (Colocasia esculenta var. esculenta) accessions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The application of the droplet vitrification cryopreservation technique to taro accessions from a range of Asia Pacific countries
is presented. The optimum protocol involves excision of about 0.8 mm shoot-tips from in vitro plants, 20–40 min PVS2 exposure
at 0°C followed by rapid plunge into liquid nitrogen. Thawing was done at room temperature (25°C) and shoot-tips inoculated
on MS medium with 0.1 M sucrose regenerated into plantlets 4–6 weeks later. This new droplet vitrification protocol improved
the mean post-thaw regeneration rates to 73–100% from 21–30% obtained with the previous cryo-vial vitrification protocol. 相似文献

Gross rates of N mineralization and nitrification, and soil–atmosphere fluxes of N2O, NO and NO2 were measured at differently grazed and ungrazed steppe grassland sites in the Xilin river catchment, Inner Mongolia, P. R.
China, during the 2004 and 2005 growing season. The experimental sites were a plot ungrazed since 1979 (UG79), a plot ungrazed
since 1999 (UG99), a plot moderately grazed in winter (WG), and an overgrazed plot (OG), all in close vicinity to each other.
Gross rates of N mineralization and nitrification determined at in situ soil moisture and soil temperature conditions were
in a range of 0.5–4.1 mg N kg−1 soil dry weight day−1. In 2005, gross N turnover rates were significantly higher at the UG79 plot than at the UG99 plot, which in turn had significantly
higher gross N turnover rates than the WG and OG plots. The WG and the OG plot were not significantly different in gross ammonification
and in gross nitrification rates. Site differences in SOC content, bulk density and texture could explain only less than 15%
of the observed site differences in gross N turnover rates. N2O and NO
x
flux rates were very low during both growing seasons. No significant differences in N trace gas fluxes were found between
plots. Mean values of N2O fluxes varied between 0.39 and 1.60 μg N2O-N m−2 h−1, equivalent to 0.03–0.14 kg N2O-N ha−1 y−1, and were considerably lower than previously reported for the same region. NO
x
flux rates ranged between 0.16 and 0.48 μg NO
x
-N m−2 h−1, equivalent to 0.01–0.04 kg NO
x
-N ha−1 y−1, respectively. N2O fluxes were significantly correlated with soil temperature and soil moisture. The correlations, however, explained only
less than 20% of the flux variance. 相似文献

Growth and ultimate size can provide important population insights and a sound biological basis for setting length limits,
which can be the best single regulation for preventing overexploitation of muskellunge (Esox masquinongy) populations. A system was developed, using cleithral age and total length at age confidence limits (CL) data, to determine
reproductive and growth potential (ultimate size) for calculating and setting increased size limits based on minimum reproductive
size (upper 99% CL at age at first maturity + 2 year) and minimum ultimate size (MUS) calculated from the lower 99% CL—minimum
ultimate size limit (MUSL). MUS also provides a trophy standard and an index of relative size for comparing trophy potential
of individuals within and among populations. Guidelines are provided for determining minimum sample size (mean ± 95% confidence
interval = 12 ± 4) and minimum age (8–10 ± 2.0 year) required to produce valid von Bertalanffy growth trajectories. MUS, MUSL,
and trophy standards for both length and estimated weight are provided for female and male muskellunge from 14 Ontario sources.
Mean MUS, or trophy standard, for females was 115 ± 10.3 cm (MUSL range 75–135) and 11.1 ± 2.6 kg (2.5–17.5) and for males
was 95 ± 7.5 cm (66–110) and 6.1 ± 1.3 kg (1.9–9.2). These indices can precisely define growth and growth potential for muskellunge
populations and individuals and can be used to better manage and maintain or improve the quality of muskellunge populations
and fisheries.

Statistical analysis of protein folding rates has been done for 84 proteins with available experimental data. A surprising
result is that the proteins with multi-state kinetics from the size range of 50–100 amino acid residues (a.a.) fold as fast
as proteins with two-state kinetics from the same size range. At the same time, the proteins with two-state kinetics from
the size range 101–151 a.a. fold faster than those from the size range 50–100 a.a. Moreover, it turns out unexpectedly that
usually in the group of structural homologs from the size range 50–100 a.a., proteins with multi-state kinetics fold faster
than those with two-state kinetics. The protein folding for six proteins with a ferredoxin-like fold and with a similar size
has been modeled using Monte Carlo simulations and dynamic programming. Good correlation between experimental folding rates,
some structural parameters, and the number of Monte Carlo steps has been obtained. It is shown that a protein with multi-state
kinetics actually folds three times faster than its structural homologs. 相似文献

Intracranial saccular aneurysms have been clinically observed to emit a transient sound, a bruit, on each heartbeat. The
mechanism causing the bruits has been a matter of contention. A qualitative analysis of the nonlinear dynamical properties
of the Shah-Humphrey model for periodic pressure forcing of a thin-necked saccular aneurysm, using the Fung nonlinear constitutive
model for the aneurysm material, shows that a small blood pressure jump on each beat, whether the pressure is weakly aperiodic
or periodic, induces transients in the radial deformation response of the aneurysmal wall on each heartbeat. These transient
vibrations, which have a component with frequency near the natural frequency of the system but are not resonant phenomena
and which decay rapidly to a limit cycle during each distinct forcing pressure cycle, can generate the bruits.

The limited proteolytic sites or nicksites are present only in one of the five loops of the RNase A molecule. The splitted
loop 15–23 connects two structural domains in the hinge region of the interdomain contacts of the V-shaped molecule. The other
four loops are inside two domains, 64–71 and 112–115 in the domain I (1–19, 47–81, 102–106) and 36–42 and 88–95 in the domain
II (20–46, 82–101). Because of enhanced chain flexibility of the splitted loop in the pH-dependent conformational isomerization,
deformation of its structure is slighter under the influence of the intermolecular contacts in the crystal lattice and more
significant changes occur in loop conformation at the formation of the 3D swapped dimer of the RNase A molecule. The proteolytic
splitting of the 15–23 loop proceeds due to the local fluctuation of the native protein structure. 相似文献

Dew and its effect on two heliophile understorey species of a tropical dry deciduous forest in Mexico 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Víctor L. Barradas M. Guadalupe Glez-Medellín 《International journal of biometeorology》1999,43(1):1-7
A series of horizontal and vertical measurements of dew deposition and dew duration were carried out in a tropical dry deciduous
forest in western Mexico (19° 30′ N, 105° 03′ W). The effect of dew on transpiration in heliophile species was also investigated.
The amount of dew was very variable with no temporal or spatial pattern. The amount of dew measured at two horizontal transects
(maximum and minimum) (at heights of 0.20 m and 1.30 m above ground level) was from 0.014 to 0.203 mm and from 0.013 to 0.061 mm
in the middle and at the end of the dry season, respectively. Dew deposition at different vertical levels (0.50–12.5 m height)
ranged from 0.04 to 0.36 mm. The duration of dew formation ranged between 60 and 129 min after sunrise above the canopy (a
height of 11 m), and between 259 and 290 min after sunrise at a height of 2 m. Daily transpiration rates were 883 and 632 g
m–2 d–1 in Coccoloba liebmannii and 538 and 864 g m–2 d–1 in Jacquinia pungens in January and April, respectively. Transpiration was restricted from sunrise to early afternoon in April, as a result of
the pronounced midday closure of stomata in both species. The reduction of transpiration by dew ranged from 13.2 to 50.1 g
m–2 d–1 and from 4.5 to 77.7 g m–2 d–1 for C. liebmannii and J. pungens, respectively. Dew can play an important role in enhancing the survival of heliophile species in the dry season by reducing
transpiration rates during the morning.

For the systematic study of the gonostomatid fishes of theDiplophos taenia species complex, a total of 698 specimens was obtained from the three oceans. Four valid species were recognized:D. taenia Günther,D. proximus Parr,D. orientalis Matsubara, andD. australis sp. nov. The diagnostic characters are 90–100 total vertebrae (TV) (37–41 abdominal (AV) +52–60 caudal vertebrae (CV)) and
103–115 IC photophores (IC) for D.taenia, 85–90 TV (36–39 AV + 48–52 CV) and 98–104 IC forD. proximus, 83–86 TV (33–35 AV + 49–52 CV) and 92–100 IC for D.orientalis, and 84–91 TV (33–37 AV+ 50–54 CV) and 99–105 IC forD. australis. In addition to the above,D. proximus has larger orbital diameter (the proportion to head length 21–28%) than the other three species (15–23%) beyond 70mm in standard
length. Due to wide distribution,D. taenia shows meristic variations: the numbers of TV, IC and anal fin rays (A) are smaller at lower latitudes and larger at higher
ones in all oceans, and the number of A is smaller in the Atlantic (56–71) than in the other oceans (59–72) of the same latitude.
Because of these variations, identification to species level is possible only area by area. The distribution of each of the
four species is also distinct:D. taenia is a cosmopolitan between about 40° N and 30° S exclusive of the eastern tropical Pacific;D. proximus is endemic to the eastern tropical Pacific;D. orientalis is limited to the North Pacific transitional zone between about 30° and 40° N; andD. australis in a transitional zone of the Southern Ocean south of 20° S. 相似文献

Depth profiles of oxygen concentration and the redox status of acid-extractable iron were measured in littoral sediment cores
of Lake Constance incubated under a light–dark regimen of 12 h. While oxygen penetrated to 3.4±0.2 mm depth in the dark, photosynthetic
oxygen production shifted the oxic–anoxic interface down to 4.0±0.2 mm or 5.9±1.6 mm depth, at low or high light intensity,
respectively, and caused a net oxygen efflux into the water column. After a light–dark or dark–light transition, the oxygen
concentration at the sediment surface reached a new steady state within about 20 min. The redox state of the bioavailable
iron was determined in 1-mm slices of sediment subcores. After a dark period of 12 h, 85% of the acid-extractable iron (10.5 μmol cm−3 total) in the uppermost 8 mm was in the reduced state. Within 12 h at low or high light intensity, the proportion of ferrous
iron decreased to 82 or 75%, respectively, corresponding to net rates of iron oxidation in the range of 244 and 732 nmol cm−3 h−1, respectively. About 55 or 82% of the iron oxidation at low or high light intensity occurred in the respective oxic zone
of the sediment; the remaining part was oxidized in the anoxic zone, probably coupled to nitrate reduction. The areal rates
of iron oxidation in the respective oxic layer (21 or 123 nmol cm−2 h−1 at low or high light intensity, respectively) would account for 4 and 23% of the total electron flow to oxygen, respectively.
Light changes caused a rapid migration of the oxic–anoxic interface in the sediment, followed by a slow redox reaction of
biologically available iron, thus providing temporal niches for aerobic iron oxidizers and anaerobic iron reducers. 相似文献

This study is based on our already published experimental data (Kowalska et al. in Radiat Environ Biophys 58:99–108, 2019) and is devoted to modeling of chromosome aberrations in human lymphocytes induced by 22.1 MeV/u 11B ions, 199 MeV/u 12C ions, 150 MeV and spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) proton beams as well as by 60Co γ rays. The curvature of the dose–effect curves determined by the linear-quadratic model was considered in the frame of a simple analytical approach taking into account increase in the irradiation dose due to overlapping interaction regions of ion tracks. The model enabled to estimate effective interaction radius which could be compared with the physical expectations. The results were also compared to the Amorphous Track Structure Model of Katz which allows to get some additional information about the ion track structure. The analysis showed that the curvature of the experimental dose–effect curves mainly results from highly efficient repair processes of the DNA damage. 相似文献

Pleurotus sp. was grown in liquid medium and on a solid straw substrate, and activities of laccase and manganese-dependent peroxidase
(MnP) were recorded. The activities were the highest in a rich, glucose corn-steep liquid medium. In straw cultures, laccase
activity was about ten times lower. Under solid state conditions, MnP production was the highest during days 20–40, when laccase
activity already had declined. In straw cultures, mineralization of14C-pyrene was measured as release of14CO2. The highest rates of pyrene mineralization occurred during days 20–45,i.e. the period of high MnP activities, suggesting a role of this enzyme in PAH degradation. Within 60d, 24% of pyrene was mineralized. 相似文献

In many cases the distribution of saccadic reaction times (SRT) deviates considerably from a unimodal distribution and may
often exhibit several peaks. We present a statistical approach to determining the number and form of the individual peaks.
The overall density of the reaction times f
i
(t), i=1…M obtained in M different experiments with the same subject is described as the sum of K basis functions x
k
(t),k=1…K with different weights and an error term. A change in the experimental conditions is assumed to cause a change in the weights,
not in the basis functions. We minimize the square of the difference (measured data minus approximation), divided by the error
of the data. Incrementing K step by step we determine the necessary number of basis functions. This method is applied to data of six subjects tested
in different saccade tasks. We detect five different modes: two in the range 80–140 ms (express modes), two in the range 145–190 ms
(fast-regular mode) and one at about 230 ms (slow-regular mode). These modes are located at about the same positions for different
subjects. The method presented here not only proves statistically the existence of several modes in SRT distributions but
also allows the distributions to be described by a few characteristic numbers that go beyond the mean values and standard
deviations.

Shielding of relativistic protons 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Protons are the most abundant element in the galactic cosmic radiation, and the energy spectrum peaks around 1 GeV. Shielding
of relativistic protons is therefore a key problem in the radiation protection strategy of crewmembers involved in long-term
missions in deep space. Hydrogen ions were accelerated up to 1 GeV at the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory, Brookhaven National
Laboratory, New York. The proton beam was also shielded with thick (about 20 g/cm2) blocks of lucite (PMMA) or aluminium (Al). We found that the dose rate was increased 40–60% by the shielding and decreased
as a function of the distance along the axis. Simulations using the General–Purpose Particle and Heavy-Ion Transport code
System (PHITS) show that the dose increase is mostly caused by secondary protons emitted by the target. The modified radiation
field after the shield has been characterized for its biological effectiveness by measuring chromosomal aberrations in human
peripheral blood lymphocytes exposed just behind the shield block, or to the direct beam, in the dose range 0.5–3 Gy. Notwithstanding
the increased dose per incident proton, the fraction of aberrant cells at the same dose in the sample position was not significantly
modified by the shield. The PHITS code simulations show that, albeit secondary protons are slower than incident nuclei, the
LET spectrum is still contained in the low-LET range (<10 keV/μm), which explains the approximately unitary value measured
for the relative biological effectiveness. 相似文献

Distribution of dissolved organic carbon and dissolved fulvic acid in mesotrophic Lake Biwa, Japan 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in mesotrophic Lake Biwa were determined by a total organic carbon (TOC)
analyzer, and DOC molecular size distributions were determined by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) using a fluorescence
detector at excitation/emission (Ex/Em) levels of 300/425 nm with the eluent at pH 9.7. The fluorescence wavelengths for detection
were chosen from the result of excitation–emission matrix spectrometry (EEM) analysis for dissolved fulvic acid (DFA) extracted
from Ado River (peak A, Ex/Em = 260–270/430–440 nm; peak B, Ex/Em = 300–310/420–430 nm). Ado River DFA was eluted with a retention
time (RT) of 7.4–8.9 min and the apparent molecular weight was estimated at 22–87 kDa based on the elution curve for the spherical
protein molecular weight standard. A DFA peak eluted at the same retention time as Ado River DFA also appeared in all the
samples of Lake Biwa water. From the linear relationship between the peak areas with an RT of 7.4–8.9 min by SEC analysis
and DOC values of DFA by TOC analysis of a series of DFA samples (r2 = 0.9995), the concentrations of DFA in the lake water were roughly calculated. DFA was distributed within the range 0.25–0.43 mg C l−1 and accounted for 15%–41% of DOC, with the highest ratios observed at a depth of 70 m in August and the lowest at 2.5 m in
May. 相似文献
