不同退化红砂荒漠草地的水分分配格局

研究了内蒙古阿拉善盟不同过牧退化红砂草地的土壤 植物 大气系统的水分分配格局、不同退化草地和主要植物种的水分利用效率 .2 0 0 1年降雨量 12 4 .3mm ,其中试验期 119.4mm .1m深土壤水分结果表明 ,10～ 4 0cm土层受蒸散影响最大 ;由于主要共存种红砂和无芒隐子草根系分布和蒸腾强度不同等 ,含水量在 10～ 2 0cm土层以中度退化区显著低于其它样区 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,而 2 0～ 4 0cm土层以轻度退化区较低 .样地年均蒸发量为 30 .6mm ,红砂种群的年均蒸腾量为 11.9mm .随着草地退化加剧 ,裸地的蒸发量和退化指示种匍根骆驼蓬种群的蒸腾量增加 ,而红砂种群的蒸腾量降低 .与较轻度退化区比 ,中度和重度退化区的水分利用率分别下降了 14 .6 %和 4 6 .1% ,红砂水分利用率分别下降了 37.8%和 73.8% .     

The role of recipient cells in the mechanism of pathological calcification of heart valve transplants

It was found using the model of subcutaneous implantation in rats that the calcification of the aorta wall occurs by two mechanisms of which one is dependent on, and the other independent of the migration of recipient cells to the transplant.     

A Finding of the Red Squirrel (Rodentia,Sciuridae, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Sciurus vulgaris</Emphasis> Linnaeus, 1758) and Forest Dormouse (Rodentia,Gliridae, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Dryomys nitedula</Emphasis> Linnaeus, 1778) in the Pleistocene of the Southern Urals

The study deals with a new sample of the mammalian fossils from the Pleistocene deposits of the Ignatievskaya Cave in Southern Urals (54°53' N, 57°46' E). Among the rodent fossils, the teeth of red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) and forest dormouse (Dryomys nitedula) have been identified. The enamel differentiation quotient (SDQ) of the water vole teeth matches the Arvicola terrestris species from locations of the end of Middle and Late Pleistocene (oxygen isotope stages, OIS 6 and OIS 5–2, respectively). The high SDQ value for the water vole and the presence of the squirrel and dormouse in the fauna allow dating the finding near the end of the Middle Pleistocene and beginning of the Late Pleistocene (OIS 6 and OIS 5e, respectively). The widespread open and forest landscapes were inhabited by this fauna.     

Finding of Molars of the Archaic Vole Lasiopodomys (Stenocranius) Gregaloides (Hinton, 1923) (Mammalia,Rodentia, Cricetidae) in the Late Pleistocene of the Southern Urals

Doklady Biological Sciences - A total of 1250 lower first molars (m1) of voles (Arvicolini) were studied from Late Pleistocene deposits (the radiocarbon dates from rodent bones: 17?100 ±...     

The use of the microdot immunoenzyme method for determining antibodies to Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens

The microdot enzyme immunoassay (EIA) has been used for the determination of antibodies to M. tuberculosis protein fractions, crude antigenic preparations, PPD and old tuberculin in tuberculosis patients and healthy persons. Purified protein fractions have been found to possess the highest sensitivity and specificity in microdot EIA. The determination of antibodies to these fractions has permitted the differentiation of persons infected with M. tuberculosis from healthy ones. The use of M. tuberculosis protein fractions permits the determination of IgA and IgC in the sera of tuberculosis patients.     

The problem of enhancing the biological action of ionizing radiations. Glucose as an agent for increasing the radiosensitivity of Ehrlich ascitic carcinoma cells in vitro

The effect of short-term incubation of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells in a medium containing excess glucose on their radiosensitivity was studied with a reference to the growth of tumors of ascitic and solid forms. It was shown that the incubation of cells with glucose, being accompanied by a change in pH of the suspension, caused, by itself, only a slight increase in the duration of the latent period of solid tumor formation and in the life-span of mice with ascitic tumors but increased considerably the lethal effect of radiation, as was estimated by the above mentioned criteria and the percentage of inoculated tumors.
