They usually come cul as ore-bearing horizon and contain different ore-forming element. Why are there so many different associated metallic elements in the marine black shale ? Evidence shows that the answer is bio-mineralization. The bio-mineralizahon in the process of formation of metalliferous black shales can be divided intp twp stages. The first stage is the bio-achvities occurring in the surface layer aquatic body of the ocean .The ore-forming elements could be absorbed by only a few species of organisms as a bioconcentrator. The second stage is the biogeochemical process. The anaerobic bacteria decomposed the organic remains and the metal elements were activated, and migrated and combined with organic matter or clay minerals or sulfide. After sediments were buried deeply, the organic matter were cracked by high earth temperature.The metal elements in organic compound were continuously acivated, and migrated to form matamorphic minerals or hydrothermal minerals in original rocks or quartz veins. The biogenetic marks in the black shale are changed or distorted beyond recognition and not easy to be found.展开更多

Split plot designed with four treatments (Control, (50% Mineral fertilizer (M.) + 50% Biological fertilizer (Bio.)), 100% M. and 100% Bio.) of each species. Vegetative growth, leaf area, tree biomass, stored carbon, basal area, tree volume, and in the soil both of microbial account and mineral content were determined. The experimental results showed no significant differences between studied species among the most studied parameters except for Khaya senegalensis which gave the highest significant difference in root biomass and below-stored carbon than Swietenia mahagoni. Evidently, the highest significant growth parameters were 100% mineral fertilizer followed by (50% M. + 50% Bio.) as compared with control. No significant difference between 100% M. and (50% M. + 50% Bio.) of shoot dry biomass (15.19 and 12.02 kg, respectively) and above-stored carbon (0.28 and 0.22 Mt, respectively). Microbial account and mineral content in soil were improved after cultivation of tree species compared to before planting and control, especially with 50% mineral fertilizer and 50% bio-fertilizer treatment. In conclusion, a treatment containing 50% mineral fertilizer and 50% bio-fertilizer has led to the ideal Khaya senegalensis and Swietenia mahagoni growth in sandy soil for cheaper and sustainable.展开更多

When heated from the room temperature to 35- 37 ℃ , the entrapped calcium, inorganic phosphate and fl^rin released from the liposome,A mixture of Ca- Pi and F-loaded liposome formed apatite. The mineral was indicated by a rapid drop in suspension PH from 7.4 approximately 6. This was illustrated by applying a liposome suspension warmed human dentin and enamel surface which resulted in deposition of apatite onto the tissue substrates.展开更多

The as-obtained BiOBr was composed of regular multi-layered nanosheets, which were formed by selective adsorption of ionic liquids on the Br-terminated surface, followed by the formation of hydrogen bond-co-π-π stacking.The synthesized BiOBr exhibited high activity, excellent stability, and superior mineralization ability in the photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes under visible light owing to its enhanced light absorbance and narrow bandgap. Furthermore, photo-generated electrons were determined to be the main active species by comparison with different trapping agents used in the photocatalytic reactions.展开更多

The synthetic method utilized the Mannich-type reaction of an N-monosubstituted thiourea, an aldehyde, and triphenyl phosphate in glacial acetic acid solution. The experimental results of flotation of the cerussite mineral show that the collector has stronger collecting ability and higher selectivity in a neutral and a slightly alkaline medium, especially in the pulp of pH=8. Using the measurements by infrared spectroscopy （IR） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） of the cerussite mineral, the collector, as well as the cerussite treated with the collector, the flotation mechanism of cerussite has been discussed. It is concluded that the adsorption of collector on cerussite is a chemical adsorption through the electron donor atoms of the collector chelating the Pb （ Ⅱ ） of cerussite to form chelate.展开更多

Titanium oxide films obtained by MAO in the sodium phosphate electrolyte were investigated. The films were composed mainly of TiO2 phases in the form of anatase and mille and enriched with Na and P elements at the surface. Their apafite-inducing ability was evaluated in a simulated body fluid （SBF）. When immersing in SBF for over 30 d, a preferential carbonated-hydroxyapatite was formed on the surfaces of the films, which suggests that the MAO-treated titanium has a promising positive biological response.展开更多

The study also provided basic data for functional beverage preparation and for application of ZT. The results of the two experimental cycles revealed that under the ZT treatment, sap was available for collection from May, the beginning of the rainy season, to November, the beginning of the dry season. The period of abundance was July to October with the highest yield of sap of 3.18 L stalk-1 in September, 2014, still lower than the moso bamboo sap, which was likely due to the scale of sap production of monopodial bamboos being different from that of sympodial bamboos. In January, trace amounts of sap were still detected, suggesting that the effect of the treatment was significant. Moreover,in the dry season, soil water content and soil temperatures at 10-15 cm depths indicated that the fertilizer had the ability to maintain soil temperatures and moisture. In both fertilizer treatments, the correlation between the collected sap and environmental parameters was significant. In the ZT treatment for the entire 2 years, the effectual environ- mental factors were soil water at 10-15 cm, air tempera- tures, and wind speeds. The same determining factors were observed for the rainy season. In the CK treatments, the effectual environmental factors for the entire year and the rainy season were soil water at 0-5 cm and air moisture. The bamboo charcoal-based bio-fertilizer elevated the potassium, calcium, iron, manganese, copper, and total phosphorus content, simultaneously increasing the sap yield, protein and reducing sugar contents, and with a relative increase in sap pH. The wine bamboo sap con- tained 18 amino acids. Glutamic acid, alanine and proline were the most abundant. Compared to the controls, the treatment showed higher levels of all amino acids. Thus, the ZT treatment could be more beneficial to the development of root systems because the function of heat preservation and moisture retention prolong the sap collection period, increase sap yields, and elevate mineral element, conventional nutrients, and amino acid contents with evident fertilization effects and broader application prospects.展开更多
