cBN单晶合成效果与合成后Li基触媒组织结构的相关性研究

采用锂基触媒(Li_3N)和六方氮化硼(hBN)为原料,在静态高温高压条件下加入(270/325目)籽晶批量合成出了大颗粒立方氮化硼(cBN)单晶(>70目)。通过X射线衍射仪(XRD)对触媒层内物相进行标定,采用K值法、绝热法、RIR值等理论方法,计算出样品触媒层内各物相的质量分数,比较了单晶合成效果好与差的触媒层内物相含量的差别;利用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对样品触媒层的形貌进行观察,比较了单晶合成效果好与差的触媒层形貌的差别。结果表明:cBN单晶合成效果不同,其触媒组织结构有着明显的差异。当单晶合成效果较好时,触媒层中Li_3BN_2的含量为49%,cBN的含量为5%,hBN的含量为46%,触媒层内存在较均匀的熔融球状组织和管状组织,且离单晶表面越近管状组织越多;当单晶合成效果较差时,触媒层中Li_3BN_2的含量为10%,cBN的含量为49%,hBN的含量为41%,触媒层内只存在熔融球状组织。分析认为,触媒层中的cBN和Li_3BN_2的含量是影响大颗粒cBN单晶合成效果的主要因素。

多因素综合筛选酸化水井

针对M油田酸化水井的筛选缺乏针对性的问题,建立了筛选酸化水井的模糊综合评判模型。从酸化效果和酸化必要性两方面综合考虑,首次选用易于获得的注入水固相悬浮物含量、SI值和视吸水指数比等因素,建立酸化影响因素四级分类区间,使得酸化井层选择模型更符合现场实际情况。经M油田已酸化69口水井验证,模型计算结果与水井实际的酸化效果符合率为91.3%。另选8口未酸化井进行矿场试验,其酸化效果与预测结果符合率为87.5%,验证了模型的有效性。因此,该研究提高了酸化水井筛选的准确性和全面性,为M油田现场实际应用提供了理论依据。

Dynamic Accumulation of β-carotene and Dry Matter in Orange-fleshed Sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas(L.) Lam] and Their Correlation Analysis

Using three orange-fleshed sweetpotato varieties as experimental materials,16 economic traits at 60 d,75 d,90 d,105 d,120 d and 135 d after planting were measured,so as to revealing the dynamic variations of β-carotene and dry matter accumulation in roots and their relationships with economic traits in orangefleshed sweetpotato.The results showed that the dynamic variations of β-carotene accumulation in tubers varied hugely among different varieties.Interesting,the βcarotene content of all three varieties showed a significant decrease after 120 d,while the dry matter content of them performed a similar ＂fluctuation-type＂.Correlation analysis indicated that β-carotene content of three orange-fleshed sweetpotato varieties had no significant correlation with dry matter content and photosynthetic parameters,but the correlation with other economic traits also varied among varieties.

Determination of Lignin in Marine Sediment Using Alkaline Cupric Oxide Oxidation-Solid Phase Extraction-on-Column Derivatization-Gas Chromatography

Lignin serves as one of the most important molecular fossils for tracing Terrestrial Organic Matters （TOMs） in marine environment. Extraction and derivatization of lignin oxidation products （LOPs） are crucial for accurate quantification of lignin in marine sediment. Here we report a modification of the conventional alkaline cupric oxide （CuO） oxidation method, the modification consisting in a solid phase extraction （SPE） and a novel on-column derivatization being employed for better efficiency and reproducibility. In spiking blanks, recoveries with SPE for the LOPs are between 77.84% and 99.57% with relative standard deviations （RSDs） ranging from 0.57% to 8.04% （n=3）, while those with traditional liquid-liquid extraction （LLE） are from 44.52% to 86.16% With RSDs being from 0.53% to 13.14% （n=3）. Moreover, the reproducibility is greatly improved with SPE, with less solvent consumption and shorter processing time. The average efficiency of on-column derivatization for LOPs is 100.8%±0.68%, which is significantly higher than those of in-vial or in-syringe derivatization, thus resulting in still less consumption of derivatizing reagents.Lignin in the surface sediments sampled from the south of Yangtze River estuary, China, was determined with the established method. Recoveries of 72.66% to 85.99% with standard deviation less than 0.01mg/10g dry weight are obtained except for p-hydroxybenzaldehyde. The lignin content ∑8 （produced from 10g dry sediment） in the research area is between 0.231 and 0.587mg. S/V and C/V ratios （1.028 ± 0.433 and 0.192±0.066, respectively） indicate that the TOMs in this region are originated from a mixture of woody and nonwoody angiosperm plants; the high values or （Ad/Al）v suggest that the TOMs has been highly degraded.

Physiological and Biochemical Changes Induced by PRD Irrigation in Four Olive Varieties

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of partial root-zone drying （PRD） irrigation technique on stomatal conductance （gs）, leaf water potential （qJpd）, leaf relative water content （RWC）, vegetative growth, fruit quality and enzymatic antioxidants of young plants of four Olea europaea L. varieties （Picholine Marocaine, Haouzia, Picholine Languedoc and Manzanilla） grown under arid conditions in Southern Morocco. In this irrigation strategy, a split-root technique was used to divide the root system of the plants in two parts. Two water regimes were used： （1） control, with both root compartments well watered; （2） PRD, with one compartment irrigated （50% of the control）, the other compartment was kept dry switching every 10 days. For all olive varieties studied, gs and the shoot length of the plants subjected to PRD decreased, whereas, Woo and RWC remained higher. The effect of PRD was similar among the four olive varieties, with their stomata closing in response to the water deficit before any significant changes in leaf water status were detectable. At the agronomic level, the benefits of PRD on olive were expressed by an earlier maturity and by higher values of olive fruit weight and dimensions, especially, in Manzanilla, which produced a fruit reaching 7.1 g and 2.6 cm, respectively. The enzymatic activities of soluble peroxidases （POX）, insoluble peroxidases （POXins）, polyphenoloxidase （PPO） and superoxide dismutase （SOD） were up-regulated under PRD. Picholine Marocaine and Haouzia showed higher enzymatic activities revealing that in these two varieties, PRD had possibly induced oxidative stress, which resulted in an up-regulation of the antioxidant activities of POXins, POX, PPO and SOD under water deficit.

Responses of antioxidant defense system of epilithic mosses to drought stress in karst rock desertified areas

Barbula fallax Hedw., Erythrodontium julaceum(Schwaegr.) Par., and Bryum argenteum Hedw. are typical rock mosses growing on rocks in different terrestrial habitats. In this study, B. fallax and E. julaceum, which are epilithic mosses growing in rock desertification in Guizhou, China, were used as ecophysiological mosses in a combination of field investigations and laboratory experiments. We also investigated the reference moss B. argenteum, which is a widely distributed moss in habitats with soil as substrate. Our research focused on the response of the antioxidant defense system of epilithic mosses to drought stress. Most antioxidant defense indicators increased initially, then declined at later stages of drought stress. In contrast, the carotenoid content increased constantly. In addition, there was an initial increase(albeit variable) in relative membrane permeability, with this parameter showing a parabolic trend in all of the epilithic mosses. Among the three species, E. julaceum demonstrated the strongest resistance followed by B. fallax and then by B. argenteum. The epilithic mosses displayed stronger resistance compared to the native mosses; the increase in O_2 content and other reactive oxygen species(ROS) at the early stage of drought stress induced the enzymatic and non-enzymatic scavenging systems tosequester ROS. Moreover, the radical scavenging ability and strong drought tolerance was maintained. The longterm growth of bryophyte under drought conditions in a karst environment can help eliminate the intense response of mosses to drought stress as they adapt.

Analysis of Tuber Yield- and Maturity- Related Traits in Water Yam （Dioscorea alata L.）

Inadequate yield potential of available varieties and their long growth periods are two of the factors limiting yam （Dioscorea spp.） production. Identifying yield- and maturity-related traits and breeding for them will enhance production. Ten morphological/physiological traits： time of shoot emergence, time of tuber initiation, plant height, shoot dry weight, time of shoot senescence, tuber fresh weight （tuber yield）, tuber number/plant, tuber parenchyma colour, tuber dry matter content and tuber dormancy period were assessed in eight accessions of D. alata L. （water yam） on the field in 2008 and 2009. Tuber yield-related traits were identified as shoot dry weight and time of shoot emergence. Shoot dry weight had the strongest positive effect; time of shoot emergence had a negative effect. High yielding accessions had a high shoot dry weight, but were low in tuber dry matter content. Uniform tuber parenchyma colour was the sole trait related to tuber maturity, but early and late senescing accessions did not consistently differ in the trait. TDa 00/00103 is high yielding and early maturing and may be used as a parent for breeding for high yield and early maturity in D. alata.

Eutectic effect during mesophase formation in co-carbonization of ethylene tar pitch and polystyrene

Ethylene tar pitch was co-carbonized with waste polystyrene to prepare mesophase pitch. The character- istics of mesophase pitches were examined using polarized light optical microscopy, apparent viscome- try, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, IH nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, and X-ray diffractometry. The properties of the mesophase pitch were greatly improved because of the eutectic effect. The soluble content increased from 5% to 56%, the mesophase itself increased from 32% to 100%, and the optical texture was changed from a coarse mosaic into a flow domain after the waste polystyrene was added to the ethylene tar pitch. The apparent viscosity showed that the mesophase pitch changed from thixotropic to Newtonian suggesting improved rheological behavior during co-carbonization）The increased number of alkyl groups, which are mainly methylene groups, altered the molecular structure of the mesophase pitch in a way that resulted in the eutectic effect.

Simultaneous determination of five major components of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma in Xiaoer Zhike Tangjiang with standardized reference extract

In this study, we developed a novel and simple HPLC-DAD method for simultaneous qualitative and quantitative determination of five major components of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （GRR） in Xiaoer Zhike Tangjiang （XEZKTJ） with standardized reference extract （SRE）. The five analytes （liquiritin apioside, liquiritin, isoliquiritin apioside, liquirigenin and glycyrrhizic acid） were well separated with good linearity, precision, stability and repeatability. The recovery rates ranged from 95.69% to 100.80%. The content of the five compounds in 34 batches of commercial XEZKTJ products was determined using standardized GRR extract （SRE method） and individual chemical reference standards （CRS method）. Highly similar results were obtained from the two methods, demonstrating the feasibility of the proposed SRE method. Taken together, we proposed an efficient and low-cost way to perform multi-component quality control of XEZKTJ in this study.

Effects of K and N Nutrition on Function and Production of Ranunculus asiaticus

Potassium （K） affects a range of physiological processes in the plant and is a key factor controlling crop productivity and yield quality. Little information is available concerning effects of K nutrition on function of cut flower plants. The present study was carried out to investigate the interaction between K and N nutrition, on flower quantity and quality of Ranunculus asiaticus L. The plants were supplied with three levels of K fertigation （60, 120, or 180 mg K L-1） under 50 mg N L-1 application, and at the intermediate level of 120 mg K L-1, to three levels of N applications （50, 100, or 150 mg N L-l）. The two lowest K treatments and the lowest N treatment excelled in flower production due to the lower incidence of stem-toppling, a disorder associated with localized Ca deficiencies in rapidly expanding tissues of the flower stem. Detrimental effects in terms of yield quality were apparent already under supply of 180 mg K L-1 and 50 mg N L-1, and were not associated with changes in osmotic potential, relative water content or membrane stability of the plant tissue, or with changes in mineral contents of the leaves other than reduced Ca under high N application. Our results suggest a low nutritional requirement of R. asiaticus L. for K and N, a lack of involvement of tissue water relations in the reduced flower quality under the application of high concentrations of K and N, and an induction of stem toppling under high application of N and K by reduced availability of Ca to the expanding tissue of the flower stem.

In vitro degradation and biocompatibility of Mg-Li-Ca alloys—the influence of Li content

Mg-Li based alloys hold much attention as potential biomedical materials due to their excellent ductility. A reduced mechanical strength and concern for biocompatibility are exhibited for Mg-Li binary alloys due to the presence of Li element. Addition of the Ca element into Mg-Li alloys leads to an improvement in mechanical strength and biocompatibility.In the present work, the microstructure, mechanical property and corrosion behaviors of three kinds（α, α＋β, β） of as-extruded Mg-Li（1, 9 and 15 wt.%）-1 Ca alloys were investigated using optical microscope, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, tensile,immersion and electrochemical polarization measurements.In vitro biocompatibility was evaluated by cytotoxicity assays,hemolysis and four coagluation tests. The results indicated that the Mg-1 Li-1 Ca and Mg-15 Li-1 Ca alloys were characterized by α-Mg and β-Li phases besides Mg2 Ca particles, respectively; while the Mg-9 Li-1 Ca by dual（α-Mg＋β-Li） phase together with Mg2 Ca phase. The Mg-1 Li-1 Ca alloy had the highest ultimate tensile strength（UTS） and yield strength（YS）and the lowest elongation（EL） to failure（10.1±1.24%） as well.The EL for the Mg-9 Li-1 Ca alloy was the highest（52.2±0.01%）.The long-term immersion tests revealed a decrease in corrosion resistance with increasing Li content. The results of cytotoxicity assays clearly showed that the Mg-Li-Ca alloys demonstrated no toxicity to L-929 cells in 10% concentration of extracts. The Mg-1 Li-1 Ca alloy also exhibited an acceptable hemolysis ratio. The results of four coagulation tests designated no sign of thrombogenicity for the Mg-Li-Ca alloys except for the Mg-15 Li-1 Ca alloy.
