Laboratory vs. in situ resin‐core methods to estimate net nitrogen mineralization for comparison of rotation and tillage practices

Properly estimating soil nitrogen (N) mineralization as a consequence of different agronomic practices would result in better soil N fertility management. In this study, we tested the differences between laboratory and in situ resin‐core incubation methods for estimating soil net N mineralization for long‐term burley tobacco (Nicotiana tobacum L .) tillage and rotation systems. The laboratory incubation method used crushed, homogenized, litter‐free soil samples, and the in situ resin‐core incubation method used an intact soil core with the inclusion of any plant residue below or above ground. Comparisons showed that no‐tillage had significantly increased soil net N mineralization compared to conventional tillage with the laboratory incubation method, while there was no significant difference between tillage methods with the in situ resin‐core method. This indicates that soil pretreatment in the laboratory incubation method can create an “artificial tillage effect” for soil previously managed with no‐tillage, resulting in overestimated soil net N mineralization. The rotation comparison showed that different crop sequences had no impact on measured net N mineralization with the laboratory incubation method. However, a preceding soybean crop did significantly increase net soil N mineralization compared to preceding corn when measured with the in situ resin‐core method. This suggests that discarding plant residue in the laboratory incubation method can neglect the potential effect of plant residue on soil N mineralization. Therefore, it is important to be aware that soil pretreatment may influence soil N mineralization estimates, potentially resulting in flawed decisions for soil N fertility management.     

Characterization of the goldfish fecal microflora by the fluorescent in situ hybridization method

ABSTRACT:   Bacterial populations in goldfish feces were characterized by the fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) method. A total of nine different group-specific rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes were used. Approximately half of the microbial cells (57.8 ± 16.7%) were detected with a probe EUB338 and found to be bacteria. The microbial cells in 33–35 of the 35 samples from five specimens strongly hybridized with probes ALF1b, BET42a and GAM42a, suggesting that goldfish intestinal bacteria are mainly composed of α, β and γ-subclasses of Proteobacteria. The fact that a probe AER66 reacted with 25.6 ± 14.2% of the total microbial cells in all 35 samples, demonstrated that genus Aeromonas was the dominant species in the goldfish intestines. Genus Bacteroides including Bacteroides type A detected with a probe BAC303 was observed in 15 of 35 samples while other taxonomic groups determined with HGC69a, CF39a and P72 were detected in 6–11 of 35 samples. These results strongly suggest that Bacteroides shows the greatest daily fluctuation and interindividual variation in the intestines of goldfish. Moreover, the FISH method was proven to be useful for rapid enumeration of taxonomic groups of fish intestinal bacteria.

利福平乙基纤维素微球在小鼠体内的组织分布

以有机相分散、溶媒扩散二步法制备了利福平乙基纤维素微球，粒径范围2.5-12.5μm，其中粒径2.5-5.0μm的约占63％。采用微生物测定法研究了利福平乙基纤维素微球静脉给药后，利福平在小鼠体内的组织分布，且与游离利福平在小鼠体内组织分布进行了比较，小鼠单剂量静脉注射游离利福平或利福平乙基纤维素微球（相当于利福平原药）10mg/kg，测定0.5、1、3、7、12、24、48、72、120、168h共10个时间点各组织中的药物浓度。结果表明，游离利福平给药组和利福平乙基纤维素微球给药组在12h内均以肝脏中药物浓度为最高，为9.96-22.41μg/g，在3h内微球给药组高于游离药物给药组，7、12h微球给药组的药物浓度迅速下降，低于游离药物给药组；肾脏的药物浓度在12h内微球给药组明显低于游离药物给药组，24－168h微球给药组的药物浓度下降迟缓，显著高于游离药物给药组直到168药物浓度始终是微球给药组高于游离药物给药组，12h游离药物给药组已不能检出药物含量，而微球给药组直到168h仍维持在5.44μg/g，接近游离药物给药组的最高峰值；血清中利福平浓度在48h已不能检出，而微球给药组在168h为1.33mg/L；心脏、用脏微球给药组和游离药物给药组的药物浓度变化无统计学意义，与游离药物相比，利福平微球明显提高了肺脏中的药物分布，降低了利福平对肝脏、肾脏的毒性，并显著延缓了药物代谢，说明利福平微球具有长效、靶向作用。
