Radiolarians of several radiolarites sections of the Pindos-Olonos zone, southern Peloponnesus, lead to propose direct datations of mesozoic sediments. The acuity of such datations allow to distinguish two periods for depositionof radiolarites s.s. in the tethyan region. The first period would be Upper Jurassic and general in tethyan realm, radiolarites depositing under various latitudes (0–35°N). This would be the result of a strong ocean surface current. The second period would be Upper Cretaceous (Vraconian—Coniacian) and be geographically much more restricted (0–15°N). This could result from a weaker current. The absence of radiolaritic sedimentation is possibly the result of the destruction or insulation of the accurate basins during the obduction of ophiolites on the apulo-african realm. The inventory of Late Cretaceous radiolarian fauna, rarely done on alpine series so far, shows similar result to those obtained in Central American and California. 相似文献
These experiments utilized ex vivo gastric chamber preparations in both fed rats and rats fasted for 14--18 h. A new, simple technique is described for the quantification of cells in small volumes of fluid. The data indicate that exposure to solutions of 50 mM HCl was accompanied by greater cell loss in fasted vs. fed animals. The gastric potential differences of mucosae exposed to Ringer's mammalian saline, and subsequently to 50 mM HCl, were consistently at least 10 mV more negative in fasted animals. 相似文献
14C-labelled polar lipids (monogalactosyl-diacylglycerol [MGDG], digalactosyl-diacylglycerol [DGDG], phosphatidylcholine [PC] and phosphatidylglycerol [PG]), purified from Vigna unguiculata leaves, were used as substrates to study the lipolytic activities of Vigna unguiculata leaf extracts. Analysis of the radioactive degradation products revealed the presence of at least three enzyme activities contributing to the hydrolysis of the four main leaf membrane lipids: Lipolytic acyl hydrolase (LAH) activities responsible for the deacylation of galactolipids and phospholipids, phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4) activity which gives rise to phosphatidic acid, and as suggested by the presence of diacylglycerols in minor quantities after phospholipid hydrolysis, phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP, EC 3.1.3.4) and/or phospholipase C (PLC, EC 3.1.4.3.) activity. Under the conditions described in the present paper, the presence of phospholipase A (PLA1, EC 3.1.1.3 and PLA2, EC 3.1.1.4) activities remains hypothetical, due to the absence of lysophospholipids. LAH and PLD were partially soluble and partially associated with the membranes. When Vigna unguiculata plants were submitted to drought, the enzymatic degradation of galactolipids and phospholipids increased. The stimulation of lipolytic activities was greater in the drought-sensitive cultivar of Vigna unguiculata (cv. 1183) than in the drought-tolerant (cv. EPACE-1) one. In cv. 1183, MGDG- and DGDG-LAH activities in the membrane fractions were dramatically stimulated at a rather moderate water deficit (?0.75 MPa). A sharp increase in membrane phospholipolytic activities was also observed at mild drought stress (?1.2 MPa). In contrast, in cv. EPACE-1, the stimulation of lipolytic activities was less drastic and occurred at lower leaf water potentials (below ?1.2 MPa for galactolipases, and below ?1.4 MPa for phospholipases). Our results confirm the presence in leaves of higher plants of a very active LAH acting on galactolipids, whereas PLD is the main enzyme responsible for the degradation of phospholipids, particularly when plants are submitted to drought stress. The differences in stimulation of lipolytic activities between the two Vigna cultivars was in accordance with the different levels of membrane lipid degradation shown previously and could explain their different capacity to sustain drought. 相似文献
A novel hybrid of small core@shell structured CoSx@Cu2MoS4 uniformly hybridizing with a molybdenum dichalcogenide/N,S‐codoped graphene hetero‐network (CoSx@Cu2MoS4‐MoS2/NSG) is prepared by a facile route. It shows excellent performance toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline medium. The hybrid exhibits rapid kinetics for ORR with high electron transfer number of ≈3.97 and exciting durability superior to commercial Pt/C. It also demonstrates great potential with remarkable stability for HER and OER, requiring low overpotential of 118.1 and 351.4 mV, respectively, to reach a current density of 10 mA cm?2. An electrolyzer based on CoSx@Cu2MoS4‐MoS2/NSG produces low cell voltage of 1.60 V and long‐term stability, surpassing a device of Pt/C + RuO2/C. In addition, a Zn‐air battery using cathodic CoSx@Cu2MoS4‐MoS2/NSG catalyst delivers a high cell voltage of ≈1.44 V and a power density of 40 mW cm?2 at 58 mA cm?2, better than the state‐of‐the‐art Pt/C catalyst. These achievements are due to the rational combination of highly active core@shell CoSx@Cu2MoS4 with large‐area and high‐porosity MoS2/NSG to produce unique physicochemical properties with multi‐integrated active centers and synergistic effects. The outperformances of such catalyst suggest an advanced candidate for multielectrocatalysis applications in metal‐air batteries and hydrogen production. 相似文献

石蝴蝶属(Petrocosmea Oliv.)植物的现代分布与分化中心位于中国的西南山地以及周边国家和地区,如印度(阿萨姆邦)、缅甸、泰国、越南等也有分布。近年来,中国和中南半岛上各个国家和地区的新分类群和国家级新记录层出不穷,进一步加深了研究人员对中国和中南半岛植物区系以及该属植物在上述区域的多样性的理解。例如,滇黔石蝴蝶[Petrocosmea martinii (H. Léveillé)H. Léveillé]和丝毛石蝴蝶(P. sericea C.Y. Wu ex H. W. Li)曾被认为是中国的特有种,前者分布于贵州、广西北部和云南东南部,而后者仅见于云南东南部。该文报道了这两种石蝴蝶属植物的越南国家级分布新记录。这两个新记录种的发现,使得越南分布的石蝴蝶属植物种的数量上升到了5 种,这些新记录种的报道或暗示未来在与中国西南山地邻近的地区还将会有更多该属的新分类群或新记录有待发现。该文还同时提供了这两个国家级分布新记录物种的描述、图示、濒危等级现状评价以及目前所有越南已知分布的石蝴蝶属植物的检索表以备检索和核对。 相似文献
This study investigated the biomass production process from the laboratory to the pilot scale in order to use the nutrient-rich biomass of the diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii as live feed for white-leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) at larval stages (zoeal, mysis, and postlarval) and in commercial production in hatcheries in Vietnam. Our results showed that T. weissflogii was successfully cultured in 1–2 L Erlenmeyer flasks, 0.2–3.5 m3 composite tanks, and 6.5 m3 tubular photobioreactors, with the highest cell density of 1.6 × 106 cells mL?1 reached after 6 days of culture. Under optimal culture conditions, the protein, lipid, and carbohydrate contents in this algal biomass were 13.2%, 20.0%, and 10.0% of dry cell weight, respectively. The fatty acid composition contains high amount of palmitic acid (C16:0, 43.11% of total fatty acid), and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5ω-3), approximated 16.5% of total fatty acid. In a 50 L larval rearing tank, at the optimal stocking density of 125 nauplii L?1, the survival percentage (75.55%), the total body length (from 5.376 ± 0.007 to 10.860 ± 0.030 mm), and weight (at from PL1 to PL12 stages) (from 0.145 ± 0.002 to 1.158 ± 0.005 g) of the white-leg shrimp larvae reached the highest values but the metamorphosis time (234 h) was shortest compared with the other stocking densities. Further, adding living T. weissflogii biomass to the diet of white-leg shrimp larvae at the nauplii 6 stage led to an increase in the body length, weight, and survival percentage of white-leg shrimp larvae of 21.17%, 35.7%, and 33% higher compared with those of larvae fed the control diet (without the addition of T. weissflogii), respectively. At the same time, the metamorphosis time of larvae (from Z1 to PL1) decreased by 4 h compared to the control group. In intensive ponds (area of 6400 m2 pond?1), using seed stocks at the postlarvae 12 stage that had been fed T. weissflogii, the final weight, yield, and survival percentage of the shrimp were increased by 7.3%, 14.2%, and 16.3%, respectively, compared with those of the control group. There were no statistically significant differences in the protein and carbohydrate contents in the shrimp flesh among the experimental and control group (p > 0.05). The lipid, omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acid contents of shrimp flesh in experiment formula (per 100 g shrimp) were 1.21 g, 72.9 mg, 114 mg, and 86.1 mg, 11%, 29%, 21.6%, and 17.7% higher than that those in control, respectively. The obtained results show the great potential of using T. weissflogii as live feed on white-leg shrimp farms in Vietnam.
