显微红外研究巨噬细胞膜电融合后膜蛋白二级结构的变化

首次尝试了将显微傅里叶变换红外光谱术应用于研究电融合后细胞膜蛋白质二级结构的变化,发现脉冲电场作用于细胞具有穿透效应,施加电脉冲后,整个细胞的蛋白质体系能量增加,表明电泳冲对蛋白的二结构影响很大;同时,还发现用唾液酸苷酶和蛋白酶Ｐｒｏｎａｓｅ分析处理巨噬细胞膜表面后,膜上蛋白质二级结构无序化程度增加,用酶适度处理的细胞将更易发生电融合。     

大豆根尖维管组织分化和静止中心

用~3H-胸腺嘧啶核苷标记的自显影方法测定了大豆根尖的静止中心。结果表明在萌发后24小时产生,其高度为最大值,随着天数增加静止中心的高度逐渐减小。静止中心的高度与根的直径显著相关(r=0.94,p=0.01)。用显微光度计测定了静止中心细胞核的DNA 含量,大部分细胞在2c 水平,处在 G_1期。大豆根尖的静止中心与维管组织分化水平不相关,静止中心不直接控制维管组织的分化。     

Under-storey Nutrient Content in an Age Sequence of Douglas-fir Stands

The nutrient concentrations and contents of the under-storeyspecies were estimated for a series of Pacific North-west Douglas-fir[Pseudotsuga menxiessii (Mirb.) Franco] stands ranging in agefrom 9 to 95 years. Analyses were carried out for ash, N, P,K, Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, Zn and Na and significant differences innutrient concentrations were found to exist between species;species rejecting certain nutrients and accumulating others.General trends for mean concentrations of some nutrients areassociated with stand maturity in that ash, K and Mg decline,P and Mn increase and N and Ca reaches a peak at 20–30years and then declines. The nutrient contents (kg ha^–1)of the under-storey component of the stands are presented andtrends discussed.

Cyanide as a feeding stimulant for the southern army worm, Spodoptera eridania

ABSTRACT.

• 1 All instars of Spodoptera eridania larvae grow as well or better when cyanide is present in their diet as when it is absent. Concentrations up to 0.05% stimulate feeding in first to fourth instar larvae. Concentrations from 0.1% to 1.0% stimulate feeding in fifth and sixth instar larvae.
• 2 Three-day-old sixth instar larvae pre-exposed to cyanide are completely resistant to its acutely toxic effects, but previously unexposed larvae suffer reversible symptoms of poisoning when feeding on a diet containing 1.0% KCN.
• 3 A 1.0% dietary KCN exposure during the sixth instar reduces ecdysis to 17% adult emergence and completely inhibits oviposition.
• 4 Cyanide concentrations from 0.5% to 1.0% in the diet, although effecting increased growth rates, induce necrotic lesions in larval mid-gut epithelial cells.
• 5 Thiocyanate, one of the in vivo cyanide metabolites, at 0.5% in the diet reduces pupation to 23%, delays and reduces adult emergence to 20% and inhibits oviposition.
• 6 The preferred host plant of S.eridania is the lima bean, Phaseolus lunatus, probably due to its content of the cyanogenic glycoside linamarin. Dietary valine has no effect on the southern armyworm feeding and growth behaviour (Long & Brattsten, 1982) but dietary cyanide does. The lima bean is known to contain up to 31 ppm cyanide in some varieties.

机械损伤对9种水生植物叶片的影响

水生植物叶片的功能性状特征与陆生植物有所不同,同时叶脉类型也显著影响叶片的功能性状。本研究选取9种具有不同叶脉类型的水生植物,通过对叶脉进行直接损伤,分析叶片性状（形态、色素含量和叶绿素荧光指标）在叶脉受损后的变化程度与叶脉类型的关系。结果显示：具有平行脉的3种水生植物对叶脉损伤具有较强的耐受性;具羽状脉的4种植物主脉受损后显著抑制叶片生长,而侧脉受损的影响在不同物种间有所不同,具有物种特异性。本研究可为大型湖泊水生植物修复的水生物种筛选提供参考。

抑菌生的研究总结报告

本文报告一种由枯草杆菌制成的生态制剂,并命名为抑菌生(Subtilobiogen)。该制剂对创、烧伤感染有治疗作用。经过安全试验、急性毒性试验、Ames试验和微核试验证明,该制剂是一种无害、无毒和有致突变作用的活菌制剂。抑菌生有膏剂、乳剂及粉剂3种剂型。抑菌生在试管和体内对金黄色葡萄球菌、绿脓杆菌和大肠杆菌均具有抑菌作用。临床观察证明,将抑菌生喷洒在创面上,对浅Ⅱ°度、深Ⅱ°度及混合型烧伤感染均具有明显疗效。实验组(181例)与对照组(174例)相比较,在统计学上具有显著性差异。抑菌生的作用机制,经过初步试验证明,与营养争夺和占位性保护有关,因为枯草杆菌的生长速度超过金黄色葡萄球菌、绿脓杆菌和大肠杆菌的生长速度。
