土壤干旱对元宝枫渗透调节能力的影响

采用盆栽控水法和P—V技术研究分析了不同土壤干旱(速度、程度)条件对元宝枫渗透调节能力的影响。结果表明,元宝枫具有很强的渗透调节能力．但该能力受土壤干旱的速度和程度影响,在缓慢干旱条件下,元宝枫叶片的ψw、ψ0、π100、RWC^0、ROWC^0均明显降低．其中与渗透调节能力直接相关的(π100可下调0．52MPa,ψ0下调1．51MPa。在快速干旱条件下π100和ψ0分别仅下凋0．20MPa和0．48MPa。△π100值也表明缓慢干旱条件下元宝枫渗透调节能力是快速干旱下的45倍。在缓慢干旱条件下．由轻度到中度干旱时其渗透调节能力显著增强(增加270％);由中度到严重干旱时．增加不明显(增加了24．5％)。从3种有机渗透调节物质含量与△π100值的动态变化可见,可溶性糖含量增加对渗透调节能力的贡献是第一位的．其次是Pro、游离氨基酸。     

Solubilization and controlled release of a hydrophobic drug using novel micelle-forming ABC triblock copolymers

Amphiphilic ABC triblock copolymers composed of monomethoxy-capped poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG), poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (DMA), and poly(2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (DEA) have been synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). These copolymers dissolve molecularly in acidic aqueous media at room temperature due to protonation of the tertiary amine groups on the DMA and DEA residues. On adjusting the pH with base, micellization occurred at pH 8, with the water-insoluble, deprotonated DEA block forming the hydrophobic cores and the MPEG and DMA blocks forming the hydrophilic micellar coronas and inner shells, respectively. This pH-induced micellization has been exploited to develop a solvent-free protocol for drug loading. A model hydrophobic drug, dipyridamole (DIP), which dissolves in acid but is insoluble above pH 5.8, was incorporated into the micelles by increasing the pH of an aqueous drug/copolymer mixture to 9. Both the empty and the drug-loaded micelles were characterized by dynamic light scattering and fluorescence studies. The interaction of both pyrene and DIP with the MPEG-DMA-DEA micelles was studied by fluorescence; both compounds had relatively high partition coefficients into the micelles, 4.5 x 10(5) and 1.5 x 10(4), respectively. Intensity-average micelle diameters ranged from 20 to 90 nm, depending on the polymer composition and concentration. Shorter MPEG blocks (Mn = 2000) produced larger micelles than longer MPEG blocks (Mn = 5000) due to the shift in the hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance of the copolymer. Transmission electron microscopy studies of the drug-loaded micelles indicated spherical morphologies and reasonably uniform particle size distributions, which is in marked contrast to the needlelike morphology observed for pure DIP in the absence of the copolymer. Experiments on controlled release demonstrated that DIP-loaded MPEG-DMA-DEA micelles act as a drug carrier, giving slow release to the surrounding solution over a period of days. Rapid release can be triggered by reducing the pH to reverse the micellization.

Environmental controls over carbon exchange of three forest ecosystems in eastern China

Net ecosystem productivity (NEP) was continuously measured using the eddy covariance (EC) technique from 2003 to 2005 at three forest sites of ChinaFLUX. The forests include Changbaishan temperate mixed forest (CBS), Qianyanzhou subtropical coniferous plantation (QYZ), and Dinghushan subtropical evergreen broad‐leaved forest (DHS). They span wide ranges of temperature and precipitation and are influenced by the eastern Asian monsoon climate to varying extent. In this study, we estimated ecosystem respiration (RE) and gross ecosystem productivity (GEP). Comparison of ecosystem carbon exchange among the three forests shows that RE was mainly determined by temperature, with the forest at CBS exhibiting the highest temperature sensitivity among the three ecosystems. The RE was highly dependent on GEP across the three forests, and the ratio of RE to GEP decreased along the North–South Transect of Eastern China (NSTEC) (i.e. from the CBS to the DHS), with an average of 0.77 ± 0.06. Daily GEP was mainly influenced by temperature at CBS, whereas photosynthetic photon flux density was the dominant factor affecting the daily GEP at both QYZ and DHS. Temperature mainly determined the pattern of the interannual variations of ecosystem carbon exchange at CBS. However, water availability primarily controlled the interannual variations of ecosystem carbon exchange at QYZ. At DHS, NEP attained the highest values at the beginning of the dry seasons (autumn) rather than the rainy seasons (summer), probably because insufficient radiation and frequent fog during the rainy seasons hindered canopy photosynthesis. All the three forest ecosystems acted as a carbon sink from 2003 to 2005. The annual average values of NEP at CBS, QYZ, and DHS were 259 ± 19, 354 ± 34, and 434 ± 66 g C m⁻² yr⁻¹, respectively. The slope of NEP that decreased with increasing latitude along the NSTEC was markedly different from that observed on the forest transect in the European continent. Long‐term flux measurements over more forest ecosystems along the NSTEC will further help verify such a difference between the European forest transect and the NSTEC and provide insights into the responses of ecosystem carbon exchange to climate change in China.
