Results sho w that low concentration (0.05～1.5 mg·L -1) increases rice yield an d grain numbers. High concentration depresses grain formation (9～30 mg·L -1 ) and root elongation (1.5～30 mg·L -1). No significant influence on str aw dry weight was found over the whole concentration range except the 0.05 mg·L -1 treatment. With the increase of La concentration from 0.05 to 0.75 mg· L -1, catalase (CAT) activity in the first fully expandeing leaves and root s decreases. When La concentration is greater than 0.75 mg·L -1 or less than 9 mg·L -1, it significantly decreases superoxide dismutase activity ( SOD) in the leaves and roots. No significant effects were found on chlorophyll, protein and malondialdehyde (MDA) content. Possible mechanisms of La′s promotin g effect on rice growth and reduction effect of ·O- 2 were discussed.展开更多

Angustana Irish） as a test crop. Ammonium concentrations were designed in 5 levels, ranging from 12 mmol N L^-1 to 22 mmol N L^-1 and local tap water was used as water source. At the first culture stage （0-9 days）, lettuce plants maintained normal growth while the lettuce roots were increasingly impaired. During the subsequent three stages the root structure was greatly damaged, and roots became brown or black through continuous supply of high concentration of ammonium. However, there was no obvious reduction of the aboveground biomass of the plants in the high ammonium treatments compared to those supplied with nitrate alone. In contrast to results obtained in another experiment from us with distilled water, the detrimental effect of high ammonium concentration on lettuce growth was greatly alleviated. Based on the results, it was postulated that the small amount of nitrate and the higher amount of bicarbonate existed in the tap water might mitigate the adverse effects of high ammonium N. The higher bicarbonate content in water and soil has usually been regarded as a major constraint factor limiting plant growth in calcareous soil areas. However, the reaction of bicarbonate to ammonium might produce positively interactive effect on reduction of both damages. The lettuce plants grown in ammonium solutions took up less P, K, Fe, Mn and Cu and more Ca than those grown in the nitrate nutrient solution. In conclusion, the results indicated that the N form imposed an obvious influence on absorption of cations and anions. Supplying ammonium-N stimulated transport of Ca, Mg and Mn to shoots of lettuce.展开更多

The culture cells were pretreated with or without galactose oxi-dase (GO) prior to plating. Colony growth was best supported with BCGF. A moderate increment was observed with rIL-3, as well as rIL-1β and even to a lesser degree, by rlL-2, while B cell stimulating factor-2 (rBCSF-2) and rlL-1β did not show significant activity. rGM-CSF and rG-CSF had little effect, while rM-CSF enhanced the formation of lymphoma colonies. The cells from different patients had different requirements for Staphylococcus aureus protein A and GO pretreatment. It reflected the differences in activation and differentiation status and surface properties of lymphoma cells from different patients. The cells from CSF of one patient were successfully maintained in serum-free culture medium supplemented with 10% BCGF or 5% PHA-LCM for more than 4 months. The long-term culture cells were EBV negative, phenotypically consistent with B cells and gene rearrangements for JH, Kappa and myc. This serum-free culture system allowed extensive analysis of the growth requirements for clonogenic precursors.展开更多

The formulation of Holland Greenhouse Horticulture Research Institute was used(as CK) and the effects of different Ca concentrations(LCa, CK and HCa)on growth, yield, and fruit quality(protein, Vitamin C, nitrates, organic acid and soluble sugar) of tomato were studied keeping concentrations of other nutrients unchanged in the nutrient solution. The results showed that parameters related to the growth of tomato(plant height and Stem diameter), changes of tomato yield per plant and quality of tomato fruits were the highest when the plants were grown at 20% Ca treatments. In the second study, increased EC concentrations of nutrient solution resulted in stronger plants with improved yields and quality. Four different concentration gradients of nutrient solution treatment were designed based on the results of the first research stage(EC=1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5 m S/cm, respectively). The single tomato plant had the highest production which is 2 268.994 g/plant, when the nutrient solution strength was at EC=1.5 m S cm, whereas they have the best fruit quality when the solution strength at EC 4.5 m S/cm. This suggests the need for wide popularization of the nutrient solution formula in large areas to improve the tomato production.展开更多

With our adaptation procedure, it was possible to obtain cells fully adapted to serum-free media in stationary T-flasks and then enable these adapted cells to grow well in spinner flasks immediately. The spinner "ask with special stirring design proved tO provide favorable culture environment that made it desirable for use in the serum-free cultivation of Tn5 cells even at low seeding density.展开更多

Cytotoxicity was indicated by significant increases in the number of dead cells relative to controls.Results: Cells were exposed to soft contact lens care solutions for 15 min. They were irregular in shape and variable in size. The intercellular space increased and variable in size.The in-tercelluar space increased and the cells became scrunken. With the time of exposure elongated , damage of cells became more severe.Conclusions: Four kinds of soft contact lens multi-purpose care solutions may have harmful effects on the culture of human corneal epithelial cells. Soaked lenses should be rinsed with saline before being placed in the eyes in order to reduce the potential toxicity of contact lens care solutions. Eye science 1998; 14 :45 - 47.展开更多
