两种典型炭材料对微生物还原含砷水铁矿的影响及其机制研究

研究了活性炭和生物炭对Shewanella oneidensis MR-1还原含砷水铁矿过程的影响,并探究了这一过程中砷的释放、转化及其在次生矿物中的分布。研究结果表明:在培养初期活性炭和生物炭抑制了含砷水铁矿中铁的微生物还原过程,可能的原因是活性炭和生物炭抑制了菌的生长,荧光染色结果证实了这一过程;在培养中期,微生物逐渐适应培养环境,并使铁还原持续进行,培养结束时活性炭和生物炭显著增加了含砷水铁矿中铁还原的比例。培养基中的磷酸根通过置换作用使水铁矿中的部分砷释放至溶液,而微生物还原含砷水铁矿过程中,活性炭和生物炭抑制了溶液中砷的去除。此外,微生物还原含砷铁矿过程中,依次生成了蓝铁矿和菱铁矿两种次生矿物。SEM-EDX结果表明,在两种次生矿物中,砷主要被蓝铁矿固定。该结果有助于我们从氧化还原的角度评估活性炭和生物炭在农业环境应用过程中的环境效应。     

基于线阵CCD的油菜条播排种器播量在线监测装置的设计及试验

针对油菜条播机窝眼轮式排种器存在多粒种子同时下落难以监测的问题,设计加装了一种基于线阵CCD传感器的播量监测装置。监测装置发射端采用点光源,通过一组凸透镜形成由平行光线覆盖的种子监测区域,接收端采用线阵CCD传感器,通过实时监测像素值的连续变化,监测油菜种子播量,从而实现对播量的精确计量。运用室内试验台架,对窝眼轮式油菜排种器进行了单粒排种、排种计数、播量监测以及漏播和堵塞报警试验。结果表明:投种高度小于150 mm时,监测装置对单粒投种的监测准确率达100%;排种轴转速分别为20、30和40r/min时,监测装置对1000粒油菜种子计数的准确率分别为98.98%,98.26%和97.32%,对于5、10和20min连续排种播量计量的准确率均能达到97%以上。

Association of aster yellows subgroup 16SrI-B phytoplasmas with a disease of Rehmannia glutinosa var. purpurea

A new phytoplasma disease of Rehmannia glutinosa var. purpurea was observed in the Czech Republic in 1998. Infected plants showing severely proliferating shoots, leaves reduced in size with vein clearing and chlorosis, shortened internodes and virescent petals died in advanced stages of the disease. Electron microscopy examination of the ultra-thin sections revealed the presence of numerous polymorphic bodies in phloem tissue of leaf midribs and petioles. The disease was successfully transmitted from infected plant via a dodder bridge into periwinkle ( Catharanthus roseus ). The phytoplasma aetiology of this disease was further confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using universal primers R16F2/R16R2. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of amplification products indicated the presence of aster yellows related phytoplasmas (16SrI-B) in naturally infected samples of R. glutinosa var . purpurea and in symptomatic periwinkle after dodder transmission of the agent. A comparison of the amplified sequence with 17 sequences available in the GenBank confirmed the classification of the phytoplasma in the subgroup 16SrI-B. This is the first report of natural occurrence of phytoplasma-associated disease in R. glutinosa var. purpurea.     

Leek Proliferation: A New Phytoplasma Disease in the Czech Republic and Italy

During the summer 1996, twelve of twenty-eight leek plants located in a garden near eské Budjovice, South Bohemia exhibited symptoms typical of diseases associated with phytoplasmas. In summer 1998 similar symptoms were detected in leek plants in a field used for seed production located in Romagna, North Italy. In both cases the plants were established in the spring of the previous year. Plants showed flower abnormalities: stamen elongation, anther sterility, pistil proliferation, as well as poor, if any, seed production. Phytoplasma-like structures were detected by scanning and transmission electron microscopy in phloem sieve elements in the Czech diseased plants, but not in healthy ones. Nested-PCR amplifications of extracted DNA with phytoplasma-specific oligonucleotide primer pairs confirmed the presence of phytoplasmas in these plants at low concentrations. Restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses of amplified ribosomal sequences allowed the identification of detected phytoplasmas: all the samples from the Czech Republic contained aster yellows related phytoplasmas (16SrI-B) while in the Italian samples aster yellows related phytoplasmas (16SrI-B) together with stolbur related phytoplasmas (16SrXII-A) were identified. This is the first report of detection and identification of a phytoplasma disease of leek in the Czech Republic and Italy.

An Apparent Outbreak of Cutaneous Papillomatosis in Merino Sheep in Patagonia,Argentina

A retrospective study was performed on skin samples from an outbreak of cutaneous papillomatosis in Merino sheep that occurred in 1995. The samples were processed for routine histology, electron microscopy and immunocytochemistry for papilloma viruses. Particles of approximately 55 nm diameter were found in some nuclei of the stratum granulosum cells, while immunocytochemistry gave positive staining of cell nuclei in this layer. This study confirms that papillomas associated with papillomaviruses occur in sheep in Patagonia.     

Helicobacter infection in dogs and cats: facts and fiction

The discovery of the spiral bacterium Helicobacter pylori and its causative role in gastric disease in humans has brought a dramatic change to gastroenterology. Although spiral bacteria have been known for more than a century to infect the stomachs of dogs and cats, recent research has been conducted mainly in the wake of interest in H. pylori. H. pylori has not been found in dogs and only very rarely in cats and zoonotic risk is minimal. A variety of other Helicobacter spp. can infect the stomach of pets; however, their pathogenic role is far from clear, and they have a small but real zoonotic potential. The prevalence of gastric Helicobacter spp. in dogs and cats is high, irrespective of clinical signs, and as in human medicine, mode of transmission is unclear. The relationship of Helicobacter spp. to gastric inflammation in cats and dogs is unresolved, with inflammation, glandular degeneration, and lymphoid follicle hyperplasia accompanying infection in some but not all subjects. Circulating anti-Helicobacter immunoglobulin G antibodies have been detected in 80% of dogs with naturally acquired infection and most dogs and cats with experimental infection. The gastric secretory axis is similar in infected and uninfected cats and dogs and no relationship of infection to gastrointestinal ulcers has been found. Differences in the pathogenicity of Helicobacter spp. are apparent, because infection with H pylori is associated with a more severe gastritis than infection with other Helicobacter spp. in both cats and dogs. Rapid urease test, histopathology, and touch cytology are all highly accurate invasive diagnostic tests for gastric Helicobacter-like organisms in dogs and cats, whereas culture and polymerase chain reaction are the only means to identify them to the species level. Urea breath and blood tests or serology can be used to diagnose Helicobacter spp. noninvasively in dogs and cats. Most therapeutic studies in pets have not shown long-term eradication of Helicobacter spp. Whether this is due to reinfection or recrudescence has not been established.     

An experimental study of hypercholesterolemia-induced disorder of Oddi's sphincter

AIM:To investigate the functional changes and histopathological basis of Oddi’s sphincter under hypercholesterolemia. METHODS:Twenty - four New Zealand rabbits were equally divided into be groups ran- domly. Experimental groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ fed with cholesterol - added forage for 4 and 8 weeks respectively before sacri- ficed. Images, functions and histopathological characteristics of Oddi’s sphincters of experimental groups were studied and compared with control group by cholangiography, catheter manometry, and quantitative analysis of nitric oxide synthase. RESULTS: The hasal pressures of proximal low - pressure segment of Oddi’s sphincter of hath experimen- tal groups Ⅰand Ⅱ (20.9±6.1 mmHg, 25 .6±9.1 mmHg, respectively) were higher than those of control group sig- nificantly (11.7±2.8 mmHg, P < 0.01, P < 0.01 ). The hasal pressures of distal high - pressure "valve" segment of both experimental pops (138 .4±45. 5 mmHg and 144. 5 ±40 .4 mmHg, respectively) were significantly higher than those of coned group (69.3±9.8 mmHg, P < 0.01 and P<0.01). The gallbladder volUmes of experimental group Ⅰ and Ⅱ (3.4±1.0 mL and 3.9±1.9 mL) were significantly larger than those of control group (2.0 ±1.9 mL, P < 0.05 and P < 0.01 ). Between groups there were no significant differences in nitric oxide synthase con- tents. Enlargement of the cell volume, wavy distortion of the cell membrane, loosening and disarrangement of myofila- ment, uneven in size and distribution of dense body, angulation of longitudinal axis between dense body and myofila- ment, swelling, congregated at one end of nucleoulus and disappearance of cristae of plasmosomes and concertration of chromosome at nucleolus margin were observed in experimental groups under electron-microscope. CONCLUSION: The diastole function of Oddi’s sphincter could be damaged by hyperecholesterolemia, inducing a functional disorder of Oddi’s sphincter with increased resistance in bile excretion. The result is retertion of bile in the gallbladder.
