摘要
The effects of Ce^3 ＋ on the chloroplast senescence of spinach under light were studied. The results show that when the chloroplasts are illuminated for 1, 5 and 10 min with 500 μmol·cm^-2· min^-1 light intensity, the oxygen evolution rate is rapidly increased. When the chloroplasts are treated for 20, 30 and 40 min with 500 μmol·cm^-2·min^-1 light intensity, the oxygen evolution rate is gradually decreased. While spinach is treated with 16μmol·L^-1 Ce^3＋ , the rate of oxygen evolution of chloroplasts in different illumination time （1,5, 10, 20, 30, 40 min） is higher than that of control, and when illumination time is over 10 min, the reduction of the oxygen evolution rate is lower than that of control. It suggests that Ce^3＋ treatment can protect chloroplasts from aging for long time illumination. The mechanism research results indicate that Ce^3＋ treatment can significantly decrease accumulation of active oxygen free radicals such as O2^- and H2O2, and reduce the level of malondialdehyde （MDA）, and maintain stability of membrane structure of chloroplast under light. It is shown that the redox took place between cerium and free radicals, which are eliminated in a large number, leading to protect the membrane fiom peroxidating.
