The results show that the adsorption of sulfate by oxisols and the release of OH- from oxisols both increased with the increase of sulfate added at a constant pH, but decreased when pH became higher gradually. The adsorption and release both decreased markedly after removal of iron oxide. The ratio of OH- to SO42- for Fe-removed soils decreased to 15-34% of the original soils. These results suggest that iron oxide was the chief carrier of hydroxyl groups capable of ligand exchange with sulfate in oxisols.Compared with sulfate, however, the amount of fluoride adsorbed, OH- released during the adsorption of fluoride and the ratio of OH- to F- were much larger. The effect of iron oxide on the adsorption of fluoride by oxisols was smaller than that on the adsorption of sulfate. The ratios of OH- to F- for an oxisol from Brazil were 0.62 and 0.48 respectively before and after removal of free iron oxides. This implied that iron oxide only provided a small amount of exchangeable hydroxyl groups capable of ligand exchange with fluoride in oxisol. The research results indicate that among the factors inducing the changes in some properties of oxisols after adsorption of fluoride, the role became less important in the sequence of the release of OH-> the increase of negative charge > the decrease of positive charge.展开更多
The complex [Rh（CO）（Pz）（TPPMS）]2, （TPPMS = m-sulfonatophenyl-diphenylphosphine, Pz = Pirazolate） was evaluated as a catalyst precursor in the hydroformylation of allylbenzenes （eugenol and estragol） and terp...The complex [Rh（CO）（Pz）（TPPMS）]2, （TPPMS = m-sulfonatophenyl-diphenylphosphine, Pz = Pirazolate） was evaluated as a catalyst precursor in the hydroformylation of allylbenzenes （eugenol and estragol） and terpenes （limonene and myrcene） and in the hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes （crotonaldehyde, cinnamaldehyde and citral） in a biphasic medium toluene/ionic liquid. Under the reaction conditions studied （P = 600 psi, T= 95 ℃, S/C = 300：1）, the rhodium system showed a high activity and selectivity towards the desired aldehydes. The catalytic phase could be recycled up to five times without any evident loss of activity or selectivity.展开更多

In this review, we focus on the recent progresses in the theoretical and experimental studies on the vdW interaction in bimolecular reactions. In particular, we review those studies that have advanced our understanding of how the vdW interaction can strongly influence the dynamics in both direct activated and complex-forming reactions, and further extend the discussion to the polyatomic reactions involving more atoms and those occurring at cold and ultracold temperatures. We indicate that an accurate description of the delicate vdW structure and long-range potential remains a challenge nowadays in either ab initio calculations or the fitting of the potential energy surfaces. We also present an explanation on the concept of vdW saddle proposed by us recently which may have general importance.展开更多

The objective of the study was to generate data on epidemiology of NTM in the wildlife-livestock interface of the KRE. Methods used to identify the NTM were： culture and isolation, polymerase chain reaction, protein heat shock 65 kilodalton （hsp65） and sequencing. Mycobacteria were detected on 25.9% and 11.9% of livestock and wildlife tissue cultures, respectively. The most NTM isolated were M. kansasii （30%）, M. gastri （30%）, M. fortuitum （1%）, M. intracellulare （4%）, M. indicuspranii （4%）, M. nonchromogenicum （6%） and M. lentiflavum （6%）. Other NTM in smaller percentages were M. hibernae, M. engbaekii, M. septicum, M. arupense and 34.. godii. Due to rise of NTM infection in both human and animals, it is recommended that awareness and laboratory facilities be improved to curb the underreporting especially in TB-endemic countries. For species specific identification, a network of national and regional laboratories is promoted.展开更多
