The development of green catalyst preparation is necessary to prevent and eliminate waste from each step of the catalyst preparation. We summarize recent progress in the application of cold plasmas for green catalyst preparation. Cold plasma preparation can reduce the catalyst size, improve the dispersion and enhance catalyst-support interaction with the use of less or no hazardous chemicals. These improvements also lead to the enhancement of catalyst activity and stability. An alternative room temperature electron reduction with a non-hydrogen plasma as an electron source was developed for the reduction of noble metal ions in which no hazardous chemical reducing agent or hydrogen was needed. This creates many opportunities for the development of supported catalysts with heat sensitive substrates, including metal organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic framework(COFs), high surface area carbon, peptide, DNA, proteins and others. A novel floating metal catalyst on a water(or solution) surface has been established. Template removal using low temperature cold plasmas also leads to the formation of high surface area porous materials with characteristics that are normally only obtainable with high temperature calcination, but sintering can be avoided. Micro combustion has been developed for the removal of carbon template using cold plasma. This is promising for preparing many structured oxides in a simple way with no use of auxiliary chemicals. Many opportunities exist for the use of cold plasmas to make multi-metallic oxides. Some future development ideas are addressed.展开更多

It was also observed that NaHSO 3 application caused increases both in ATP content in leaves and the millisecond_delayed light emission of leaves. The increase in net photosynthetic rate caused by NaHSO 3 treatment was similar to that by PMS (phenazine methosulfate) treatment. The grain yield of treated rice was enhanced approximately by 10% after duplicated application of NaHSO 3 in milk_ripening stage. It is suggested that the enhancement of photosynthesis by NaHSO 3 treatment resulted from the effect of increasing ATP supplement. Concomitant with an increase in the photosynthetic rate and ATP content in leaves, the transient increase in chlorophyll fluorescence after the termination of actinic light, which could be used as an index of the cyclic electron flow, was also enhanced by low concentration of NaHSO 3 treatment. Basing on these results it is proposed that the increase in rice photosynthesis caused by low concentrations of NaHSO 3 could be due to the stimulation of the cyclic electron flow around PSⅠ which in turn the enhancement of the coupled photophosphorylation and photosynthesis.展开更多

[Method] Two primers were designed based on the known Brassica napus chloroplast DNA sequences AF267640 and Z50868 in GenBank. By using PCR method, two Brassica napus L. chloroplast DNA fragments were obtained, which were named RbcL and ACCD. The two Brassica na- pus chloroplast DNA homologous fragments were then cloned into plasmid pMD18-T to obtain recombinant plasmid pHBM715. Tandem expression cassette harboring spectinomycin-resistant gene aadA, mannanase gene man and green fluorescent pro- tein gene gfp was cloned into the plasmid pHBM715, thereby constructing Brassica napus chloroplast multicistron double cross-over expression vector pHBM716, which was transformed into Escherichia coil for expression and identification. [Result] Plate qualitative analysis was conducted for the functional identification of expression cas- sette in the constructed Brassica napus chloroplast multicistron double cross-over ex- pression vector, results showed that the three genes of the same multicistron were all expressed in E. coil [Conclusion] This study successfully constructed Brassica napus chloroplast multicistron double cross-over expression vector, which laid the foundation for the genetic engineering of Brassica napus chloroplast.展开更多

Hydrogen peroxide sensitive 12(hps12)was screened from this library. Phenotype analysis indicated that hps12 had dwarf plant and shorter pod than wild type(WT). The cotyledon greening rate of hps12 was decreased after being treated with 4 mmol/L H_2O_2. Furthermore, the isolated leaves of hps12 mutants showed more obvious symptoms of senescence than WT under the treatment of 10 mmol/L H_2O_2. Genetic analysis suggested that hps12 was a monogenic recessive mutant.展开更多

The results were briefly summarized as follows: (1) The wheat leaves possessed normally developed chloroplasts with intact grana and stroma thylakoid membranes; The grana intertwined with stroma thylakoid membranes and increased slightly in stacking degree and the width of granum, in spite of more accumulated starch grains within the chloroplasts than those in control; (2) The particle density in the stacked region of the endoplasmic fracture face (EFs) and protoplasmic fracture face (PFs) and in the unstacked region the endoplasmic fracture face (EFu) and the protoplasmic fracture face (PFu) was significantly higher than that of control. Furthermore, in some cases many more particles on EFs faces of thylakoid membranes appeared as a paracrystalline particle array; (3) The variations in the structure of chloroplasts were consistent with the absorption spectra and the low temperature (77 K) fluorescence emission spectra of the chloroplasts developed under the doubled_CO 2 concentration. Results indicate that the capability of light energy absorption of chloroplasts and regulative capability of excitation energy distribution between PSⅡ and PSⅠ were raised by doubled_CO 2 concentration. This is very favorable for final productivity of wheat.展开更多
