Dissolving behavior of ammonium paratungstate in(NH_4)_2CO_3-NH_3?H_2O-H_2O system

The effects of temperature, ammonia concentration and ammonium carbonate concentration on the dissolving behavior of ammonium paratungstate were studied in（NH4）2CO3-NH3？H2O-H2O system. The results show that rising temperature, prolonging duration, increasing ammonia concentration and decreasing ammonium carbonate concentration favor dissolving of ammonium paratungstate at temperature below 90 ℃, while the WO3 concentration decreases after a certain time at temperature above 100 ℃. Furthermore, the undissolved tungsten exists in the form of either APT·4 H2O below 90 ℃ or pyrochlore-type tungsten trioxide above 100℃. In dissolving process, the ammonium paratungstate dissolves into paratungstate ions followed by partially converting to tungstate ion, resulting in the coexistence of the both ions. This study may provide a new idea to exploit a novel technique for manufacturing ammonium paratungstate and pyrochlore-type tungsten trioxide.

Identification of a novel C-type lectin from the shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei and its role in defense against pathogens infection

Acting as one of the pattern recognition receptors （PRRs）, C-type lectin is believed to mediate pathogen recognition and plays an important role in the clearance of pathogens as part of the innate immune system. In this work, a novel C-type lectin gene （named LvLecl） was cloned from the shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei, The ORF of LvLecl is 510 bp, encoding 169 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence contains a putative signal peptide of 19 amino acids at the N-terminal and a carbohydrate recognition domain （CRD） at the C-terminal. LvLecl was mainly expressed in the hepatopancreas. Real-time PCR analysis indicated that the level of LvLecl transcripts significantly changed in the hepatopancreas after the shrimp were artificially challenged with LPS, Micrococcus lysodeikticus and white spot syndrome virus （WSSV）. RNAi-based silencing of LvLecl resulted in increases in mortality when the shrimp were challenged with WSSV, and the median lethal time was reduced compared with controls. Although there was no characteristic ＂EPN＂ （Glu-Pro-Ser） or ＂QPD＂ （Gin-Pro-Asp） motif, the recombinant LvLecl, expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 （DE3）, could also agglutinate M. lysodeikticus and Vibrio anguillarum. The agglutinating activities were calcium-dependent and could be inhibited by D-mannose, D-glucose, D-galactose and N-Acetyl-D-mannose. These results suggest that LvLecl might be involved in the immune response against WSSV and bacterial infections and contribute to non-self recognition as a pattern recognition receptor in the innate immune system of the shrimp L. vannamei.

Removal of nickel(Ⅱ) from aqueous solutions using iminodiacetic acid functionalized polyglycidyl methacrylate grafted-carbon fibers

Iminodiacetic acid functionalized polyglycidyl methacrylate grafted-carbon fibers(PGMA-IDA/CFs) were prepared for Ni(II) removal from aqueous solutions. The effects of solution p H value, temperature and adsorption time were investigated. The maximum adsorption capacity of Ni(II) on PGMA-IDA/CFs is 0.923 mmol·L-1· g-1at pH 5.2 and 50 °C. Kinetic data indicate that the adsorption process matches the pseudo-second-order model and Elovich kinetic model. Thermodynamic data suggest that the adsorption process is endothermic spontaneous reaction.

Spatiotemporal variation of dissolved carbohydrates and amino acids in Jiaozhou Bay,China

Surface seawater samples were collected from Jiaozhou Bay,China,during six cruises(MarchMay 2010,September-November 2010) to study the distribution of dissolved organic matter including dissolved organic carbon(DOC),total dissolved carbohydrates,namely monosaccharides(MCHO) and polysaccharides(PCHO) and total hydrolysable amino acids.These included dissolved free amino acids(DFAA) and combined amino acids(DCAA).The goal was to investigate possible relationships between these dissolved organic compounds and environmental parameters.During spring,the concentrations of MCHO and PCHO were 9.6(2.8-22.6) and 11.0(2.9-42.5) μmol C/L,respectively.In autumn,MCHO and PCHO were 9.1(2.6-27.0) and 10.8(2.4-25.6) μmol C/L,respectively.The spring concentrations of DFAA and DCAA were 1.7(1.1-4.1) and 7.6(1.1-31.0) μmol C/L,respectively,while in autumn,DFAA and DCAA were 2.3(1.1-8.0) and 3.3(0.6-7.2) μmol C/L,respectively.Among these compounds,the concentrations of PCHO were the highest,accounting for nearly a quarter of the DOC,followed by MCHO,DCAA and DFAA.The concentrations of the organic compounds exhibited a decreasing trend from the coastal to the central regions of the bay.A negative correlation between concentrations of DOC and salinity in each cruise suggested that riverine inputs around the bay have an important impact on the distribution of DOC in the surface water.A significant positive correlation was found between DOC and total bacteria count in spring and autumn,suggesting bacteria play an important role in the marine carbon cycle.

The decoupling between gas exchange and water potential of Cinnamomum camphora seedlings during drought recovery and its relation to ABA accumulation in leaves

Aims Drought stress and the degree of drought severity are predicted to rise under highly variable patterns of precipitation due to climate change,while the capacity of trees to cope with drought recovery through physiological and biochemical adjustment remains unclear.We aimed to examine the coupling of physiology and biochemistry in trees during drought and the following recovery.Methods Potted seedlings of Cinnamomum camphora were grown under well watered conditions prior to the experimental drought stress,which was initiated by withholding water.Seedlings were rewatered following attainment of two drought severities:mild drought(stomatal closure)and moderate drought(ψxylem=−1.5 MPa).We measured leaf-level water potential,gas exchange(photosynthesis and stomatal conductance),abscisic acid(ABA),proline and non-structural carbohydrates(NSCs)concentrations in seedlings of C.camphora during drought and a 4-day recovery.Important Findings We found that drought severity largely determined physiological and biochemical responses and affected the rate of recovery.Stomatal closure occurred at the mild drought stress,accompanied with ABA accumulation in leaves and decline in water potential,while leaf proline accumulation and variable NSC were evident at the moderate drought stress.More severe drought stress led to delayed recovery of gas exchange,but it did not have significant effect on water potential recovery.The relationships of water potential and gas exchange differed during drought stress and post-drought recovery.There was tight coupling between water potential and gas exchange during drought,but not during rewatering due to high ABA accumulation in leaves,thereby delaying recovery of stomatal conductance.Our results demonstrate that ABA could be an important factor in delaying the recovery of stomatal conductance following rewatering and after water potential recovery of C.camphora.Furthermore,greater drought severity had significant impacts on the rate of recovery of tree physiology and biochemistry.

Protein differential expression in the elongating cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) fiber under nitrogen stress

Nitrogen (N) is an essential macronutrient and an important factor limiting agricultural productivity. N deficient or excess conditions often occur during the cotton growth season and incorrect N application may affect cotton fiber yield and quality. Here, the influence of N stress on the cotton fiber proteome was investigated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. The results indicated that N application rate affects nitrogen accumulation in fiber cells and fiber length. The proteins differentially expressed during N stress were mainly related to plant carbohydrate metabolism, cell wall component synthesis and transportation, protein/amino acid metabolism, antioxidation and hormone metabolism. The most abundant proteins were C metabolism-related. Ten days post anthesis is a critical time for fiber cells to perceive environmental stress and most proteins were suppressed in both N deficient and N excess conditions at this sampling stage. However, several N metabolism proteins were increased to enhance N stress tolerance. Excess N may suppress carbohydrate/energy metabolism in early fiber development much like N deficiency. These results have identified some interesting proteins that can be further analyzed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of N tolerance.
