The X-ray diffraction analysis of wet S1nm Me^(2+) manganates after 24 h room temperature dry showed that their basal d-spacing had been changed, indicating that there was phase transformation between 1nm and 0.7nm manganates. Take 1nm manganates with unstable structure collapsed into 0. 7nm manganate by losing one interlayer OH-H_2O, while those with stable structure still retained the 1nm d-spacing. This factor reminds us that the manganese nodule samples must be kept in wet condition to avoid the misleading results. The structural stabdity of 1nn manganate is mainly controlled by the interlayer divalent cations. There is a possitive correlation between the amount of cations in the interlayer and the structural stability, while the capacity of different canons in stabilizing the structure of 1nm manganate is as follows: Ni > Cu > Co > Zn > Ca>Mg > Na.展开更多

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of manganism on the rat hippocampus using immunohistochemistry and MRI examination. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized controlled study, performed in the School of Medicine and Life Science, Jianghan University and the State Key Laboratory of Atomic & Molecular Physics and Spectroscopy, Chinese Academy of Science, from July to September 2005. MATERIALS: Fourteen healthy SD rats aged two months were selected for this study. MnCl2 4H2O (BHD, UK) (batch number: 9791325); glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) staining kit (Beijing Zhongshan Biotechnology); Biospec 4.7T/30 animal MRI formatter (Bruker, Germany). METHODS: Fourteen rats were randomly divided into a control group (n =7) and a manganism group (n = 7). Rats in the manganism group received intraperitoneal injection of MnCl2 · 4H2O (50 mg/kg), once a day, for four successive days. Rats in the control group were injected according to the manganism regimen, but using saline instead of manganese solution. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Twenty-four hours after the last injection, rats were examined using MRI. Immunohistochemically stained GFAP and hematoxylin-eosin stained hippocampal sections were observed under optical microscopy. RESULTS: Fourteen rats were included in the final analysis. After manganese treatment, T1 weighted image and inversion recovery MR1 demonstrated that the signal intensity was significantly enhanced in hippocampus, compared to controls. Neuronal necrosis was not observed in the hippocampus after HE staining. As compared to the control group, GFAP expression was markedly enhanced in the hippocampus of the manganism group. CONCLUSION: Within the rat brain, manganese preferentially localizes to the hippocampus and can induce astroctye activation.展开更多

The influences of reaction conditions, including pH value, initiator concentration, monomer concentration and its composition, on percent grafting and grafting efficiency were investigated. The graft copolymer was characterized by means of IR spectroscopy, scanning electron micrograph(SEM) and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The biodegradation experiment showed that the degradation of corn starch-g-poly(MMA-co-VAc) was mainly from starch. However, after poly VAc in the side chain was transformed into poly vinyl alcohol(PVA), both starch and the grafted side chain could be degraded completely.展开更多

The d-spaciug of which shows 1. 002 nm, 0. 501 nm and 0. 34 nm respectively. As the analogue of natural 1nm manganate, it has been used for a serieS of experiments of divalent cations substitution. The results indicate that the 1nm manganate has very strong cation substitution capacity, which probable is the reason of the valuable metal such as Cu, Ni and Co enriched in the manganese nodules. The preference of canons substituting into S 1nm manganate is Cu>Co>Zn≥Ni>Ca>Mg. In the manganese nodules, the content of Ni is usually higher than that of Cu and Co, but in the cation substitution, the latter two are more preference than the former. One can infer from this differentiation that the post-deposition cation substitution is not the sole mechanism by which the valuable metals enter the manganese nodules. It could be the results of combined effects of both original formation and the post-deposition substitution of canons,which leads to the enrichment of valuable metal in the manganese nodules.展开更多
