Immobilization of cellulases on the reversibly soluble polymer Eudragit S‐100 for cotton treatment

Cellulases can penetrate into the fiber, causing tensile strength loss of the cellulosic fibers or fabrics. To minimize the tensile strength loss, we have immobilized cellulases on Eudragit S‐100. The characteristics of covalent Eudragit cellulase were evaluated using gel filtration analysis and UV spectra. Gel filtration analysis revealed that the cellulases were covalently bound to the polymer. Covalent Eudragit cellulase was loaded with the enzyme of about 40% and had a relative activity about 80% at a Eudragit S‐100 concentration of 15 g/L. When cellulase is bound to the polymer, the solubility profile becomes similar to the one of Eudragit. In addition, the effects of the enzyme on the cotton yarns and fabric using cellulases have been investigated. Native and immobilized cellulases caused improvements in whiteness and wrinkle recovery angle of the fabric in comparison to the control samples. The bending stiffness results show that native and immobilized cellulase treated cotton fabric has an improved softness than the control samples. It was found that using the immobilized cellulase reduced the weight and tensile strength, because the hydrolytic attack is only limited to the surfaces of cotton fibers.     

基于生态效率理论和TOPSIS法的工业园区循环经济发展评价

工业园区层面的生态效率评价是生态效率研究领域有待深入探索的课题。TOPSIS方法则可能是适用于生态效率评价的一种方法,它以空间统计学为基础,借助于多目标决策问题的理想解和负理想解来进行排序,能够客观地比较和评价不同样本点综合指标的优劣。本文根据生态效率和循环经济理论,结合《综合类生态工业园区标准（试行）》,建立工业园区循环经济评价指标体系,运用TOPSIS方法对苏州高新区、苏州工业园区生态工业园和无锡新区生态工业示范园区的生态效率进行综合评价,结果表明：三者的生态效率综合排名由高到低依次为：无锡新区生态工业示范园区> 苏州工业园区生态工业园> 苏州高新区,且3园区在经济发展、资源能源利用率、物质循环利用、环境污染控制等子系统有所优劣。并针对各园区的各自存在的不足提出了相应的改进和发展建议。

雷公藤红素抑制Cd2+诱导的神经毒性北大核心CSCD

镉(cadmium,Cd)是环境中常见的一种重金属,Cd^(2+)可以通过穿透血脑屏障,产生神经毒性,从而诱发各种神经退行性疾病,雷公藤红素是雷公藤的一种有效成分,具有抗癌、抗炎等一系列药理作用,本文探究雷公藤红素对Cd^(2+)诱导的相应神经毒性的影响作用。通过细胞增殖实验、细胞膜完整性实验、细胞形态实验探索了Cd^(2+)对小胶质细胞HMC3活力的影响;通过一氧化氮(NO)检测实验、脂质过氧化(malondialdehyde,MDA)检测实验、蛋白免疫印迹实验分析了Cd^(2+)的神经毒性以及雷公藤红素对Cd^(2+)诱导的相应神经毒性的影响。结果表明:与对照组相比,当Cd^(2+)浓度达到40μmol/L时,对HMC3细胞增殖抑制率为(57.17±8.23)%(P<0.01,n=5),继续增大Cd^(2+)浓度,细胞活性将进一步降低;当Cd^(2+)浓度达到40μmol/L以上时,HMC3的细胞膜明显受到破坏,并且破坏作用与浓度呈剂量依赖性关系;随着Cd^(2+)浓度的增加,细胞形态开始变化,贴壁效果变差。Cd^(2+)使HMC3细胞释放的NO量显著增加,而雷公藤红素能够有效地抑制Cd^(2+)诱导的HMC3细胞NO的释放;Cd^(2+)使HMC3细胞脂质过氧化水平显著增加,加入10^(-7) mol/L雷公藤红素后,MDA的释放量显著减少;Cd^(2+)会使p-PI3K蛋白含量增加,而加入了雷公藤红素(10^(-7)、10^(-6) mol/L)后,p-PI3K蛋白和p-AKT蛋白的激活均被抑制,从而抑制了细胞凋亡。综上所述,雷公藤红素能够抑制Cd^(2+)诱导的小胶质细胞毒性,从而起到神经保护作用。

Integrated soil and plant phosphorus management for crop and environment in China. A review

In semi-arid grassland ecosystems, soil biogeochemical processes are controlled by seasonal and inter-annual rainfall variation and temperature, which may override the long-term impact of grazers on N availability and N dynamics. In a three-year (2004?C2006) case study of an Inner Mongolian grassland, we analysed time-integrated (ion-exchange resins) and instantaneous (soil mineral N extractions) inorganic N availability at three sites of varying grazing intensities and combined these data with information on soil water content (SWC), aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) and plant N uptake. Additionally, the effects of rainfall and grazing on N-form availability (NO ₃ ^? -N, NH ₄ ⁺ -N) were considered. Grazing had less impact on N availability compared to seasonal and annual rainfall distribution. One of the three study years (2004) showed a grazing effect with higher resin-N availability at the ungrazed site compared to the heavily grazed site. Inorganic N availability was low in the driest year (2005) and highest in a year of average rainfall amount and favourable distribution (2004). In general, we found a positive relationship between inorganic N availability and both plant productivity and plant N uptake. Rainfall also controlled the plant available NO ₃ ^? -N and NH ₄ ⁺ -N pools; NH ₄ ⁺ -N dominated the available inorganic N-form in times of low SWC, while the available NO ₃ ^? -N increased with SWC. We observed N availability and plant productivity in a temporal synchronized pattern. Increased rainfall variability and land-use practices affecting SWC will likely alter N availability dynamics (and the relation of N-forms) and, therefore, important processes of semi-arid natural grassland carbon and N cycling.
