基于DISLab系统定量探究液体表面张力

在现行人教版和粤教版高中物理选择性必修第三册中,缺乏定量探究液体表面张力的内容。为此,可利用DISLab数字实验系统,以及透明塑料板、铁架台、钢管、短木板、滑轮等材料,自制一款定量探究液体表面张力的实验装置。该实验装置一方面便于学生观察液体表面张力的实验现象,另一方面可借助DISLab数字实验系统中的传感器轻松测量液体表面张力。实验结果表明,塑料板在脱离液体表面时受到的液体表面张力随外力的增大而增大,且存在一个最大值——液体最大表面张力,塑料板实际受到的液体表面张力大小在零与最大液体表面张力之间。

A method of batch-purifying microalgae with multiple antibiotics at extremely high concentrations

Axenic microalgal strains are highly valued in diverse microalgal studies and applications. Antibiotics, alone or in combination, are often used to avoid bacterial contamination during microalgal isolation and culture. In our preliminary trials, we found that many microalgae ceased growing in antibiotics at extremely high concentrations but could resume growth quickly when returned to an antibiotics-free liquid medium and formed colonies when spread on a solid medium. We developed a simple and highly efficient method of obtaining axenic microalgal cultures based on this observation. First, microalgal strains of different species or strains were treated with a mixture of ampicillin, gentamycin sulfate, kanamycin, neomycin and streptomycin （each at a concentration of 600 mg/L） for 3 days; they were then transferred to antibiotics-free medium for 5 days; and finally they were spread on solid f/2 media to allow algal colonies to form. With this method, five strains ofNannochloropsis sp. （Eustigmatophyceae）, two strains of Cylindrotheca sp. （Bacillariophyceae）, two strains of Tetraselmis sp. （Chlorodendrophyceae） and one strain ofAmphikrikos sp. （Trebouxiophyceae） were purified successfully. The method shows promise for batch- purifying microalgal cultures.

Effect of Phenylephrine on Alveolar Fluid Clearance in Ventilator-induced Lung Injury

Objective To investigate the effect of phenylephrine （an α-adrenergic agonist） on alveolar fluid clearance （AFC） in ventilator-induced lung injury and the possible mechanism involved. Methods A total of 170 male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into 17 groups （n= 10） using ran- dom number tables. Short-term （40 minutes） mechanical ventilation with high tidal volume （HVT） was per- formed to induce lung injury, impair active Na＋ transport and lung liquid clearance in the rats. Unventilated rats served as controls. To demonstrate the effect of phenylephrine on AFC, phenylephrine at different con- centrations （1×10^-5, 1 ×10^-6, 1×10^-7, 1×10^-8, and 1×10^-9 mol/L） was injected into the alveolar space of the HVT ventilated rats. To identify the influence of adrenergic antagonists, Na＋ channel, and microtubular sys- tem on the effect of phenylephrine, phenylephrine at 1×10^-5mol/L combined with prazosin （an α1-adrener- gic antagonist, 1×10^-4 mol/L）, yohimbine （an α2-adrenergic antagonist, 1×10^-4 mol/L）, atenolol （a β1- adrenergic antagonist, 1×10^-5 mol/L）, ICI- 118551 （an β2-adrenergic antagonist, 1×10^-5 mol/L）, amiloride （a Na＋ channel blocker, 51×10^-4mol/L）, ouabain （a Na＋/K＋-ATPase blocker, 5~×10^-4mol/L）, colchicine （a mi- crotubular disrupting agent, 0.25 mg/100 g body weight）, or β-lumicolchicine （an isomer of colchicine, 0.25 mg/100 g body weight） were perfused into the alveolar space of the rats ventilated with HVT for 40 minutes. AFC and total lung water content were measured. Results Basal AFC in control rats was （17.47±2.56）%/hour, which decreased to （9.64± 1.32）%/hour in HVT ventilated rats （P=0.003）. The perfusion of phenylephrine at 1 ×10^-8, 1×10^-7, 1×10^-6, and 1×10^-5 mol/L significantly increased the AFC in HVT ventilated rats （all P〈0.05）. This effect of phenylephrine on AFC was suppressed by prazosin, atenolol, and ICI-118551 in HVT ventilated rats by 53%, 31%, and 37%, respectively （all P〈0.05）. The AFC-stimulating effect of phenylephrine was lowered by 33% and 42% with amiloride and ouabain, respectively （both P〈0.05）. Colchicine significantly inhibited the effect of phenylephrine （P=0.031）. Conclusion Phenylephrine could increase the AFC in HVT-ventilated rats and accelerate the ab- sorption of pulmonary edema.

Tyrosinase,a new innate humoral immune parameter in large yellow croaker(Pseudosciaena crocea R)

We evaluated the immune response to infection with a pathogen in large yellow croaker(Pseudosciaena crocea Richardson).The fish were given an intraperitoneal(i.p.) injection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus or sterile sea water(control).We collected blood sera from the fish 0.17,1,2,4,8,12,or 16 d after injection(dpi).We measured tyrosinase activity and the concentrations of lysozyme,NOS,and antibodies.Serum tyrosinase activity was significantly higher at 0.17 and 4 dpi than in the control group,and peaked at 8 dpi.Lysozyme activity was significantly higher at 2 and 12 dpi than in the control group,but lower at 16 dpi.There is no statistical difference in the level of nitric oxides synthase(NOS) activity or antibodies between the control and injection groups.This is the first report of the tyrosinase activity in the serum of large yellow croaker.Our results indicate that tyrosinase plays an important role in the immediate immune defense against V.parahaemolyticus in large yellow croaker.Tyrosinase is a candidate parameter for investigation of fish innate immune defense.

High Efficiency of Propagation for Sagittaria sagittifolia Using a Temporary Immersion Bioreactor System

Although several studies have reported on the propagation of the Sagittaria sagittifolia to date, none of these methods have efficiently achieved the mass production of these plants. The present study aimed to investigate the propagation and growth of S. sagittifolia using a temporary immersion bioreactor system （TIBS） compared with conventional semi-solid and liquid culture. The effect of different immersion frequencies and immersion times together with supplementation of various plant growth regulators to the Murashige and Skoog （MS） medium was evaluated on shoot proliferation and plant growth. The results showed that the higher immersion frequency （every 6 h） and shorter immersion time （3 min and 10 rain） in medium containing 4 mg/L BA and 0.1 mg/L NAA produced the highest multiplication rate （23）, which are significantly higher than conventional semi-solid （3.6） and liquid （4.5） method, and the best plant growth parameter. While, the lower immersion frequency and longer immersion time （30 rain every 12 h and 60 min every 24 h） induced vitrification and pollution rate in shoot tips 16.6% and 19%, 42% and 37%, respectively. There is distinct decrease in pollution rate （8.3%） in TIBS （10 min every 6 h） compared with the conventional semi-solid and liquid cultures. Medium containing 4 mg/L BA and 0.5 mg/L NAA using 10 min immersion every 6 h showed satisfaction at the rooting stage, with high shoot proliferation rate （21.6）, 100% rooting and 94% plant survival. Therefore, applying TIBS in S. sagittifolia is an efficient method for scaling up the production of plantlets with high quality seedlings.

The Analysis of Gas Absorption into a Stationary Droplet in Atmospheric Environment

Absorption of gaseous species into stationary droplets is a fundamental interest of mass transfer between liquid droplets and ambient gas, which plays a key role in atmospheric environment control and many industrial applications. In this paper, two different considerations including equilibrium and non-equilibrium relations at the interface are used to analyze and predict the absorption time for a physical absorption at a relatively low solubility of gas. For the equilibrium pattern, in the beginning period of absorption, the mass transfer rate is considerably rapid and afterward becomes slower and slower and finally comes to almost zero as the droplet concentration closes to the saturated value. Differently, when the non-equilibrium model is adopted, the interfacial concentration increases gradually with the bulk concentration of liquid droplet, and the absorption rate mildly decelerates with the increase of bulk one throughout the process, which leads to a longer absorption time. Based on the diffusion equation of species, the concentration distribution within the droplet at different times is computed. A solution for CO2 absorption into a small water droplet is given.

A totally mini-invasive approach for colorectal laparoscopic surgery

AIM:To study the short-term outcome of patients treated with laparoscopic right colectomy and how intracorporeal anastomosis has improved the outcome.METHODS:We retrospectively examined all patients affected by colorectal cancer who underwent a laparoscopic right colectomy between January 2006 and December 2010 in our department.Our evaluation criteria were:diagnosis of colorectal carcinoma at presurgical biopsy,elective surgery,and the same surgeon.We excluded:emergency surgery,conversions from laparotomic colectomy,and other surgeons.The endpoints we examined were:surgical time,number of lymph nodes removed,length of stay(removal of nasogastric tube,bowel movements,gas evacuation,solid and liquid feeding,hospitalization),and major complications.Seventy-two patients were divided into two groups:intracorporeal anastomosis(39 patients)and extracorporeal anastomosis(33 patients).RESULTS:Significant differences were observed between intracorporeal vs extracorporeal anastomosis,respectively,for surgical times(186.8 min vs 184.1 min,P < 0.001),time to resumption of gas evacuation(3 d vs 3.5 d,P < 0.001),days until resumption of bowel movements(3.8 d vs 4.9 d,P < 0.001),days until resumption of liquid diet(3.5 d vs 4.5 d,P < 0.001),days until resuming a solid diet(4.6 d vs 5.7 d,P < 0.001),and total hospitalization duration(7.4 d vs 8.5 d,P < 0.001).In the intracorporeal group,on average,19 positive lymph nodes were removed;in the extracorporeal group,on average,14 were removed P < 0.001).Thus,intracorporeal anastomosis for right laparoscopic colectomy improved patient outcome by providing faster recovery of nutrition,faster recovery of intestinal function,and shorter hospitalization than extracorporeal anastomosis.CONCLUSION:Short-term outcomes favor intracorporeal anastomosis,confirming that a less traumatic surgical approach improves patient outcome.

Ultracytochemical localization of H+-adenosine triphosphatase activity in autophagic vacuoles induced by vinblastine in rat liver

H+-adenosine triphosphatase (H+-ATPase) activity was demonstrated oytoohemioally in autophagio vaouoles (AVs) of rat hepatooytes using a modification of the method for the demonstration of neutral p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (p-NPPase) activity [1]. When an inhibitor of H+-ATPase, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) or 4,4'-diisothiooyanostilbene-2,2'disalfonio aold, di-sodium salt (BIDS) was included in the incubation medium the enyzme activity was abolished indicating that p-NPPase demonstrated in this study represents H+-ATPase. Autophagy was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of vinblastine sulfate (VBL). The number of AVs increased remarkably in hepatooytes from 40 min after VBL treatment. H+-ATPase activity was observed mainly on the membranes of lysosomes and AVs. However, early forms of AVs containing only incompletely digested material showed no H+-ATPase activity. Most AVs revealing a positive reaction seemed to be in advanced stages of development. Acid phosphatase aotioity was demonstrable in mature but not in early forms of AVs. The present investigation showed that membranes of advanced stage A Vs possess an H+-ATPase which may be derived from lysosomal membranes.

Short-and long-term results of endoscopic ultrasoundguided transmural drainage for pancreatic pseudocysts and walled-off necrosis

AIM To evaluate the short-and long-term results of endoscopic ultrasound-guided transmural drainage(EUS-GTD) for pancreatic fluid collection(PFC) and identify the predictive factors of treatment outcome for walled-off necrosis(WON) managed by EUS-GTD alone.METHODS We investigated 103 consecutive patients with PFC who underwent EUS-GTD between September 1999 and August 2015. Patients were divided into four groups as follows: WON(n = 40), pancreatic pseudocyst(PPC; n = 11), chronic pseudocyst(n = 33), and others(n = 19). We evaluated the short-and long-term outcomes of the treatment. In cases of WON, multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the predictor variables associated with the treatment success. In addition, PFC recurrence was examined in patients followed up for more than 6 mo and internal stent removal after successful EUS-GTD was confirmed.RESULTS In this study, the total technical success rate was 96.1%. The treatment success rate of WON, PPC, chronic pseudocyst, and others was 57.5%, 90.9%, 91.0%, and 89.5%, respectively. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography using the multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the treatment success rate of WON was significantly lower in patients with more than 50% pancreatic parenchymal necrosis(OR = 17.0; 95%CI: 1.9-150.7; P = 0.011) and in patients with more than 150 mm of PFC(OR = 27.9; 95%CI: 3.4-227.7; P = 0.002).The recurrence of PFC in the long term was 13.3%(median observation time, 38.8 mo). Mean amylase level in the cavity was significantly higher in the recurrence group than in the no recurrence group(P = 0.02).CONCLUSION The reduction of WON by EUS-GTD alone was associated with the proportion of necrotic tissue and extent of the cavity. The amylase level in the cavity may be a predictive factor for recurrence of PFC.

Effect of xiaoer feire kechuan oral solution on extrapulmonary injury induced by mycoplasma pneumoniae in infant wistar rats

Objective To observe the effect of Xiaoer Feire Kechuan oral solution on the extrapulmonary injury induced by Mycoplasma pneumoniae in infant Wistar rats. Methods Infant Wistar rats were infected intranasally with M. pneumoniae once a day for four days. In the treatment groups, Xiaoer Feire Kechuan oral solution was administered daily for four days beginning from the day of infection. On day 5, blood of the rats was collected, and blood routine and biochemistry indexes were measured. All rats were sacrificed, and the weight of brain, heart, liver, and kidney was measured to calculate the organ indexes. The GM1 and GALC-Ab content in brain tissue was determined by ELISA. Pathological changes in the brain, heart, liver, kidney, and cerebellum were observed by HE staining. Results Blood routine indexes fluctuated within the normal range in the infection control group and in three of the Xiaoer Feire Kechuan oral solution groups. The serum LDH, CK, and CRE in all three Xiaoer Feire Kechuan oral solution groups were distinctly lower than those in the infection control group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). Rat brain index and GALC-Ab content in the brain tissue showed an increase in infection control group. In the Xiaoer Feire Kechuan oral solution groups, the GALC-Ab content in brain tissue was decreased significantly. The heart, liver, and kidney tissues showed mild pathological changes in the infection group, which were reversed by Xiaoer Feire Kechuan oral solution treatment. Conclusions The extrapulmonary injury induced by M. pneumoniae in infant Wistar rats was significantly inhibited by Xiaoer Feire Kechuan oral solution.

Solution Properties of Soy Protein in DMSO/Urea Solvent System

Solution properties of 7S globulins (7S), 11S globulins (11S) and soy protein isolates (SPI) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)/urea solvent system were studied by intrinsic viscosity and particle size distributions. The results showed that the existence of urea was the main reason for the denaturation and solubility of soy protein in the system, and the effects were more obvious with increasing of urea concentration in solutions. Suitably dissolution temperature and time contributed to the solubility of soy proteins.

Experimental studies on gas and water permeability of fault rocks from the rupture of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, China

The permeabilities of fault rocks from the rupture of Wenchuan earthquake were measured by using nitrogen gas and distilled water as pore fluids under the confining pressure ranging from 20 to 180 MPa at room temperature. Experimental results indi- cate that both gas and water permeabilities decrease with increasing confining pressure, described by power law relationship, i.e., b = 0.2x10-3kl-0.557. The water permeability is about one order less than gas permeability and also half order smaller than the permeability corrected by the Klinkenberg effect, so-called intrinsic permeability. The differences in the permeabilies imply that the reduction of effective pore size caused by the adhesion of water molecules to clay particle surface and water-swelling of expandable clay minerals contributes to lessening the water permeability besides the Klinkenberg effect. Hence, the liquid permeability of fault rocks cannot be deduced by gas permeability by the Klinkenberg correction reliably and accurately, and it is necessary to use liquid as pore media to measure their transport property directly.

Large-scale fabrication of field-effect transistors based on solution-grown organic single crystals

A simple solution processing method was de- veloped to grow large-scale well-aligned single crystals in- cluding 6,13-bis（triisopropylsilylethynyl）pentacene （TIPS- pentacene）, anthracene, tetracene, perylene, C6o and tetra- cyanoquinodimethane. As pinned by a solid needle, a droplet of semiconductor solution dried into single-crystal arrays on a 1 cm×2 cm substrate. TIPS-pentacene was used to demonstrate the fabrication of hundreds of field- effect transistors （FETs） with the hole mobility as high as 6.46 cm^2 V^-1.s^-1. As such, this work provides a high- throughput, yet efficient approach for statistical examination on the FET performance of organic single crystals.
