湘西地方路径与历史之魅:土家族作家田瑛小说的一种读法

在关于湘西土家族作家田瑛小说的已有研究中,“另类传奇”“神秘”“原始”“巫傩异象”“残酷美学”“第三种湘西”往往成为必不可少的符号,这种标签式的描述很容易简化湘西作为地方的丰富性。缺少追问的是,田瑛打着方言印记的湘西故事如何跳出了地方主义?其小说的意义正在于以地方性反地方性,以地方色彩消解神秘性,从而获具一种“世界”文学的格局。还需追问的是,其小说时空的“不确定性”背后包含作家怎样的历史观念或意图?男人的残缺不仅意味着对男性权力历史的改写,也隐喻了对单一线性的历史完整性的质疑与瓦解,田瑛祛除历史之魅的方式之一便是语言的还原。

Effect of temperature on suspension magnetization roasting of hematite using biomass waste as reductant:A perspective of gas evolution

The magnetization reduction of hematite using biomass waste can effectively utilize waste and reduce CO_(2) emission to achieve the goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.The effects of temperatures on suspension magnetization roasting of hematite using biomass waste for evolved gases have been investigated using TG-FTIR,Py-GC/MS and gas composition analyzer.The mixture reduction process is divided into four stages.In the temperature range of 200-450℃ for mixture,the release of CO_(2),acids,and ketones is dominated in gases products.The yield and concentration of small molecules reducing gases increase when the temperature increases from 450 to 900℃.At 700℃,the volume concentrations of CO,H_(2) and CH_(4) peak at 8.91%,8.90% and 4.91%,respectively.During the suspension magnetization roasting process,an optimal iron concentrate with an iron grade of 70.86%,a recovery of 98.66% and a magnetic conversion of 45.70% is obtained at 700℃.Therefore,the magnetization reduction could react greatly in the temperature range of 600 to 700℃ owing to the suitable reducing gases.This study shows a detail gaseous evolution of roasting temperature and provides a new insight for studying the reduction process of hematite using biomass waste.

Cloning and Bioinformatic Analysis of Cinnamoyl-CoA Reductase Gene (CCR) from Pennisetum purpureum

[Objective] The aim was to clone the cDNA and DNA sequences of the CCR （Cinnamoyl-CoA reductase） gene which involves in lignin biosynthesis, from Pennisetum purpureum, and to make comprehensive analysis on these sequences. [Method] CCR sequences were cloned from P. purpureum by using conventional RT-PCR and RACE （Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends） methods; and the bioinformatic analyses of the CCR were conducted by means of NCBI, ProtParam ProtScale, TMHMM, TargetP, SignalP, Pfam20.0, Prosite, Swiss-Model, ClustalW2, DNAman, DNAstar and MEGA5. [Result] The cloned PpCCR （P. purpureum CCR） cDNA sequence was 1 316 bp, including a 1 110 bp ORF and 206 bp 3’-UTR. The cloned DNA sequence from PpCCR was 6 133 bp in full-length, containing five exons and four introns. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that PpCCR encoded a polypeptide of 369 amino acids, the secondary structure of which was primarily composed of random coil and α-helix, belonging to NAD-dependent epimerase/dehydratase family, and its co-factor binding sites and substrate binding sites were highly conserved. [Conclusion] DNA and cDNA sequences of CCR gene were obtained from P. purpureum, which had the typical characteristics of other homologous genes. The obtained bioinformatic data provided theoretical references for the further analysis of CCR and better application of P. purpureum in the future.

Relationship and effect of redox potential,jarosites and extracellular polymeric substances in bioleaching chalcopyrite by acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans

The changes of pH,redox potential,concentrations of soluble iron ions and Cu^2＋ with the time of bioleaching chalcopyrite concentrates by acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans were investigated under the different conditions of initial total-iron amount as well as mole ratio of Fe（III） to Fe（II） in the solutions containing synthetic extracellular polymeric substances （EPS）.When the solution potential is lower than 650 mV （vs SHE）,the inhibition of jarosites to bioleaching chalcopyrite is not vital as EPS produced by bacteria can retard the contamination through flocculating jarosites even if concentration of Fe（III） ions is up to 20 g/L but increases with increasing the concentration of Fe（III） ions;jarosites formed by bio-oxidized Fe3＋ ions are more easy to adhere to outside surface of EPS space on chalcopyrite;the EPS layer with jarosites acts as a weak diffusion barrier to further rapidly create a high redox potential of more than 650 mV by bio-oxidizing Fe^2＋ ions inside and outside EPS space into Fe^3＋ ions,resulting in a rapid deterioration of ion diffusion performance of the EPS layer to inhibit bioleaching chalcopyrite severely and irreversibly.

Effect of Water Control before Transplanting and Rooting Powder Treatment on Tobacco Seedling Quality and Physiological Properties at Green Stage

Cultivating strong seedlings is an important guarantee for the production of high-quality flue-cured tobacco, while there are many disadvantages in tobacco floating system that is commonly adopted in China. To improve the tobacco floating system, with Xiangyan No.3 as experimental material, the effects of water control before transplanting and rooting powder treatment on tobacco seedling quality and physiological properties at green stage were investigated. The results showed that： （1） water control showed small influence on tobacco seedling quality, while rooting powder treatment and water control ＋ rooting powder treatment showed great influence on tobacco seedling quality, mainly represented by reduced plant height, thickened stem and increased dry matter accumulative amount; （2） water control before transplanting and rooting powder treatment all improved leaf chlorophyll content and root vigor of tobacco seedlings, and the effect of water control ＋ rooting powder treatment was best, followed by rooting powder treatment and water control; （3） all treatments increased the nitrate reductase and invertase activity, and reduced the MDA content of tobacco seedlings, and the effect of water control ＋ rooting powder treatment was best, followed by rooting powder treatment and water control. Mean- while, the treatment effect 10 d before the transplanting was better than that 5 d before the transplanting. In overall, the improvement effects of water control 10 d before transplanting ＋ rooting powder treatment on tobacco seedling quality and physiological properties at green stage were the best.

Effects of Plant Growth Regulators on the Contents of Reducing Sugar and Starch in Potato(Solanum tuberosum L.)

[Objective] The aim was to investigate the effects of plant growth regulators on contents of reducing sugar and starch in potato（Solanum tuberosum L.）.[Method]A potato cultivar named ＇Holand-212＇ with three treatments by spraying Diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate（DTA-6）,Uniconazole（S3307）and SOD mimics（SODM）were employed to compare differences of the contents of reducing sugar and starch in potato leaves,stolons and tubers in a field experiment.[Result]DTA-6 treatment could significantly reduce the contents of starch and reducing sugar in potato stolons in the period of 100-110 d after seeding,and it could also reduce the content of reducing sugar in tubers,but there is an opposite result in leaves in the same period,significantly.S3307 could extremely significantly increase the content of starch,and can promote the transfer of starch in stolons,in addition,it also could reduce the content of reducing sugar in tubers,and extremely significantly increase the content of starch in leaves at the 110 d after sowing.Moreover,there is a similar effect between SODM and S3307.[Conclusion]The research results are significant for understanding mechanisms of plant growth regulators and promoting application of plant growth regulator in potato.

Rapid Preparation Process of Silver Nanoparticles by Bioreduction and Their Characterizations

Bioreduction as a novel nanoparticle synthesizing technology attracts increasing attention. Dried cells of the bacterium Aeromonas sp. SH10 rapidly reduced [Ag（NH3）2]^＋ to Ago in the solution into which some amount of OH^- was introduced. The surface plasmon resonance centered at 425 nm on the UV-vis spectra and five broad Bragg reflections on the XRD pattern showed that stable silver nanoparticles were formed during the bioreduction process. TEM and SEM observations suggested that the silver nanoparticles were uniform in size and well dispersed on the cells and in the solution. Therefore, silver nanoparticles could be prepared rapidly by this bioreduction technology.

Effects of Pravastatin on neuroprotection and neurogenesis after cerebral ischemia in rats

Objective Statins inhibit hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A （HMG-CoA） reductase activity and lower total serum cholesterol levels. We investigated the effects of Pravastatin on neuroprotection and neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus （DG）, subventricular zone （SVZ） and striatum after cerebral ischemia in rats. Methods The filament method was used for temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion （tMCAO）. Pravastatin or saline post-ischemically were administered at subsequent time points： 6 h after tMCAO, and then on every subsequent day up to day 14 after tMCAO. Neurological outcome was investigated by using a neuroscore, the beam balance test and the rotarod test. Cholesterol and triglycerides levels were determined by blood sample analysis prior to sacrifice. Infarct area was calculated by microtubule-associated protein 2 （MAP2） staining. Neurogenesis was evaluated by triple staining with bromodeoxyuridine （BrdU）, doublecortin （DCX）, and neuronal nuclei （NeuN）. Results Compared with the control groups, Pravastatin treated animals were significantly improved in neurological outcome in rotarod test, with smaller infarct size. Pravastatin increased BrdU- positive cells number in the DG （P = 0.0029） and the SVZ （P = 0.0280） but not in the striatum （P = 0.3929）. Furthermore, Pravastatin increased BrdU-labeled DCX positive cells number in the DG （P = 0.0031）, SVZ （P = 0.0316） and striatum （P = 0.0073）. We also observed a DCX-positive cells stream from the SVZ to the striatum, suggesting a migration route of those immature neurons. No significant differences of total serum cholesterol and triglycerides were observed between groups. Conclusion The Pravastatin administration strategy is safe and could promote neurological recovery in ischemic stroke. Pravastatin induces neurogenesis in the DG and SVZ, and increases the number of migration cells in the striatum. These effects are independent of the cholesterol-lowering property of Pravastatin.

Wound healing of intestinal epithelial cells

The intestinal epithelial cells(IECs) form a selective permeability barrier separating luminal content from underlying tissues.Upon injury,the intestinal epithelium undergoes a wound healing process.Intestinal wound healing is dependent on the balance of three cellular events;restitution,proliferation,and differentiation of epithelial cells adjacent to the wounded area.Previous studies have shown that various regulatory peptides,including growth factors and cytokines,modulate intestinal epithelial wound healing.Recent studies have revealed that novel factors,which include toll-like receptors(TLRs),regulatory peptides,particular dietary factors,and some gastroprotective agents,also modulate intestinal epithelial wound repair.Among these factors,the activation of TLRs by commensal bacteria is suggested to play an essential role in the maintenance of gut homeostasis.Recent studies suggest that mutations and dysregulation of TLRs could be major contributing factors in the predisposition and perpetuation of inflammatory bowel disease.Additionally,studies have shown that specific signaling pathways are involved in IEC wound repair.In this review,we summarize the function of IECs,the process of intestinal epithelial wound healing,and the functions and mechanisms of the various factors that contribute to gut homeostasis and intestinal epithelial wound healing.

New insight into hydroxyl-mediated NH_3 formation on the Rh-CeO_2 catalyst surface during catalytic reduction of NO by CO

Vibrational IR spectra and light‐off investigations show that NH3forms via the“hydrogen down”reaction of adsorbed CO and NO with hydroxyl groups on a CeO2support during the catalytic reduction of NO by CO.The presence of water in the reaction stream results in a significant increase in NH3selectivity.This result is due to water‐induced hydroxylation promoting NH3formation and the competitive adsorption of H2O and NO at the same sites,which inhibits the reactivity of NO reduction by NH3.

Production of Chiral Aromatic Alcohol by Asymmetric Reduction with Vegetable Catalyst

Chiral aromatic alcohols are the key chiral building block for many important enantiopure pharmaceu-ticals. In this work,we studied asymmetric reduction of prochiral aromatic ketone to produce the corresponding chiral alcohol using vegetables as the biocatalyst. Acetophenone was chosen as the model substrate. The results in-dicate that acetophenone can be reduced to the corresponding chiral alcohols with high enantioselectivity by the chosen vegetables,i.e. apple(Malus pumila),carrot(Daucus carota),cucumber(Cucumis sativus),onion(Allium cepa),potato(Soanum tuberosum),radish(Raphanus sativus),and sweet potato(Ipomoea batatas) . In the reaction,R-1-phenylethanol is produced with apple,sweet potato and potato as the catalyst,while S-1-phenylethanol is the product with the other vegetables as the catalyst. In term of the enantioselectivity and reaction yield,carrot(D. ca-rota) is the best catalyst for this reaction. Furthermore,the reaction characteristics were studied in detail using car-rot(D. carota) as the biocatalyst. The effects of various factors on the reaction were investigated and the optimal reaction conditions were determined. Under the optimal reaction conditions(reaction time 50 h,substrate concen-tration 20 mmol·L-1,reaction temperature 35 °C and pH 7),95% of e.e.(to S-1-phenylethanol) and 85% chemical yield can be obtained. This work extends the biocatalyst for the asymmetric reduction reaction of prochiral aromatic ketones,and provides a novel potential route to produce enantiopure aromatic alcohols.

Fe/N-doped mesoporous carbons derived from soybeans: A highly efficient and low-cost non-precious metal catalyst for ORR

Oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)plays a crucial role in many energy storage and conversion devices.Currently,the development of inexpensive and high-performance carbon-based non-precious-metal ORR catalysts in alkaline media still gains a wide attention.In this paper,the mesoporous Fe-N/C catalysts were synthesized through SiO2-mediated templating method using biomass soybeans as the nitrogen and carbon sources.The SiO2 templates create a simultaneous optimization of both the surface functionalities and porous structures of Fe-N/C catalysts.Detailed investigations indicate that the Fe-N/C3 catalyst prepared with the mass ratio of SiO2 to soybean being 3:4 exhibits brilliant electrocatalytic performance,excellent long-term stability and methanol tolerance for the ORR,with the onset potential and the half-wave potential of the ORR being about 0.890 V and 0.783 V(vs RHE),respectively.Meanwhile,the desired 4-electron transfer pathway of the ORR on the catalysts can be observed.It is significantly proposed that the high BET specific surface area and the appropriate pore-size,as well as the high pyridinic-N and total nitrogen loadings may play key roles in enhancing the ORR performance for the Fe-N/C3 catalyst.These results suggest a feasible route based on the economical and sustainable soybean biomass to develop inexpensive and highly efficient non-precious metal electrochemical catalysts for the ORR.

Impacts of Alkalinity Drops on Shifting of Functional Sulfate-Reducers in a Sulfate-Reducing Bioreactor Characterized by FISH

Alkalinity is one of the most important parameters that influence microbial metabolism and activity during sulfate-laden wastewater biological treatment. To comprehensively understand the structure and dynamics of functional microbial community under alkalinity changes in sulfate-reducing continuous stirred tank reactor （CSTR）, fluorescent in situ hybridization （FISH） technique was selected for qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis of functional microbial compositions in activated sludge. During 93d of bioreactor operation, the influent alkalinity was adjusted by adding sodium bicarbonate from 4000mg·L^-1 down to 3000mg·L^-1, then to 1500mg·L^-1, whereas other parameters, such as the loading rates of chenucal oxygen demand （COD） and sulfate （SO4^2-）, hydraulic retention time （HRT）, and pH value, were continuously maintained at 24g·L^-1·d^-1 and 4.8g·L^-1·d^-1, 10h,and about 6.7, respectively. Sludge samples were collected during diflerent alkalinity levels, and total Bacteria, tlae sulfate-reducing bacteria （SRB）, and four SRB genera were demonstrated with 16S ribosomal .RNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes. The results indicated that bioreactor started-up successfully in 30d. The two instances ot drop in alkalinity resulted in the fluctuation of sulfate removal rate. The diversity of SRB community showed significant shift, and the alteration of microbial community directly resulted in the corresponding statuses of bioreactor. The dominant genera during the bioreactor start-up and alkalinity drops were Desulfovibrio, Desulfobacter, Desulfovibrio, Desulfobacter, and Desulfovibrio, respectively. In addition, the acetotrophic SRB sutterecl more trom me reduction of alkalinity than the non-acetotrophic SRB. This strategy can present the functional microbial community structure during start-up and alkalinity drop stages, and provides a powerful theoretical guideline for optimization and adjustment of bioreactor, as well.

Significance of Biogenic Amines in Foods and Their Reduction Methods

The term ＂biogenic amines＂ defines decarboxylation products such as histamine, putrescine, serotonin, tyramine, phenylethylamine, tryptamine and also aliphatic polyamines. They can be detected in both raw and processed foods. In the recent years, there is a great interest in biogenic amines as they are associated with quality, safety and freshness of some foods, particularly fermented foods. The presence of biogenic amines in foods can also be used as an indicator of hygienic quality. Biogenic amines also cause health hazards due to their toxic effects especially in sensitive individuals. It is therefore important to control and reduce the biogenic amines. The reduction can be brought about by the use of high pressure, irradiation, packaging, additives, starter cultures and by reduction of decarboxylase activity and temperature. This review summarizes the significance, function, occurrence and formation of biogenic amines in different foods and their reduction by different methods.

Land Management Effects on Biogeochemical Functioning of Salt-Affected Paddy Soils

Most lowlands in Northeast Thailand(Isaan region)are cultivated with rice and large areas are affected by salinity, which drastically limits rice production.A field experiment was conducted during the 2003 rainy season to explore the interactions between salinity and land management in two fields representative of two farming practices:an intensively managed plot with organic inputs and efficient water management,and one without organic matter addition.Field measurements,including pH,Eh,electrical conductivity(EC),and soil solution chemistry,were performed at three depths, with a particular focus on Fe dynamics,inside and outside saline patches. High reducing conditions appeared after flooding particularly in plots receiving organic matter and reduction processes leading to oxide reduction and to the release of Fe and,to a lesser extend,Mn to the soil solution.Oxide reduction led to the consumption of H^+ and the more the Fe reduction was,the higher the pH was,up to 6.5.Formation of hydroxy-green rust were likely to be at the origin of the pH stabilization.In the absence of organic amendments,high salinity prevented the establishment of the reduction processes and pH value remained around 4.Even under high reduction conditions,the Fe concentrations in the soil solution were below commonly observed toxic values and the amended plot had better rice production yield.

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T genotype affects promoter methylation of tumor-specific genes in sporadic colorectal cancer through an interaction with folate/vitamin B_(12) status

AIM:To evaluate joint effects of Methylentetra-hydrofolate reductase(MTHFR) C677T genotypes,and serum folate/vitamin B12 concentrations on promoter methylation of tumor-associated genes among Iranian colorectal cancer patients. METHODS:We examined the associations between MTHFR C677T genotype,and promoter methylation of P16,hMLH1,and hMSH2 tumor-related genes among151 sporadic colorectal cancer patients. The promoter methylation of tumor-related genes was determined by methylation-specific PCR. Eighty six patients from whom fresh tumor samples were obtained and 81 controls were also examined for serum folate and vitamin B12 concentrations by a commercial radioimmunoassay kit. RESULTS:We found 29.1% of cases had tumors with at least one methylated gene promoter. In case-case comparison,we did not find a significant association between methylation in tumors and any single genotype. However,in comparison to controls with the CC genotype,an increased risk of tumor methylation was associated with the CT genotype(OR = 2.5;95% CI,1.1-5.6) . In case-case comparisons,folate/vitamin B12 levels were positively associated with tumor methylation. Adjusted odds ratios for tumor methylation in cases with high(above median) versus low(below median) serum folate/vitamin B12 levels were 4.9(95% CI,1.4-17.7) ,and 3.9(95% CI,1.1-13.9) ,respectively. The frequency of methylated tumors was significantly higher in high methyl donor than low methyl donor group,especially in those with MTHFR CT(P = 0.01) ,and CT/TT(P = 0.002) genotypes,but not in those with the CC genotype(P = 1.0) . CONCLUSION:We conclude that high concentrations of serum folate/vitamin B12 levels are associated with the risk of promoter methylation in tumor-specific genes,and this relationship is modified by MTHFR C677T genotypes.

Structural engineering of 3D hierarchical Cd0.8Zn0.2S for selective photocatalytic CO2 reduction

The solar-driven catalytic conversion of CO2 to useful chemical fuels is regarded as an environmentally friendly approach to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and mitigate the greenhouse effect.However,it is highly intriguing and challenging to promote the selectivity and efficiency of visible-light-responsive photocatalysts that favor the adsorption of CO2 in photoreduction processes.In this work,three-dimensional hierarchical Cd0.8Zn0.2S flowers(C8Z2S-F)with ultrathin petals were successfully synthesized through an in-situ self-assembly growth process using sodium citrate as a morphology director.The flower-like Cd0.8Zn0.2S solid solution exhibited remarkable photocatalytic performance in the reduction of CO2,generating CO up to 41.4μmol g^−1 under visible-light illumination for 3 h;this was nearly three times greater than that of Cd0.8Zn0.2S nanoparticles(C8Z2S-NP)(14.7μmol g^−1).Particularly,a comparably high selectivity of 89.9%for the conversion of CO2 to CO,with a turnover number of 39.6,was obtained from the solar-driven C8Z2S-F system in the absence of any co-catalyst or sacrificial agent.Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy indicated that the introduction of flower structures enhanced the light-harvesting capacity of C8Z2S-F.The in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy unveiled the existence of surface-adsorbed species and the conversion of photoreduction intermediates during the photocatalytic process.Empirical characterizations and predictions of the photocatalytic mechanism demonstrated that the flower-like Cd0.8Zn0.2S solid solution possessed desirable CO2 adsorption properties and an enhanced charge-transfer capability,thus providing a highly effective photocatalytic reduction of CO2.
