Methods and Techniques to Enhance the Production of Secondary Metabolites in Hairy Roots

Hairy roots culture is a new means to gain the plant secondary metabolites. How to enhance the production of secondary metabolites in hairy roots becomes a new hotspot recently. The authors summarize recent trends and results about the increase of the production of secondary metabolites in medicinal plant hairy roots. The change of culture conditions and the application of biotechnologies can enhance the production of secondary metabolites in hairy roots.     

A STUDY ON HEAT AND MOISTURE STATE OF HULL LAYER FOR THERMAL INSTULATION OF A COLD STORAGE

This paper analyses the thermal moist characteristics of the hull layer beside an air layer at lower temperature in an envelope for a cold storage and presents a new method of waterproof by air layer. With test data from engineering practice, the theory on the barrier of self moisture proof at the surface sublayer of the hull layer in an attic on a cold storage is proven. The dried zone about three phase point is confirmed. It is a new knowledge for thermophysics on thermal design of a cold storage with an optimum thermal performance.     

泵站继电保护设计方法

分析了进口、国产继电保护设备的不同，提出了对泵站继电保护二次回路的设计新方法。泵站二次设计可按照“单元”设置的原则，将泵站二次设计划分为10／6kV泵站进线、主机、站变、所变、联络等主要单元。     

气门二次调整法在多缸V型发动机中的应用

正确的气门间隙对发动机正常运转、保持良好的性能是非常重要的。由于发动机的各气缸分布不同,做功的间隔角不同,使其气门间隙的调整各有差异。为此,结合多缸V型发动机曲轴配角、做功间隔角以及发火顺序等基本工况和原理,通过实例分析,探讨了二次调整法在多缸V型发动机气门间隙调整中的应用。     

景观生态学原理在河道生态岸堤构

分析了传统水工设计中岸堤(岸坡)构建的弊端、简要介绍了国内外学者在河流的生态整治方面的思想与观点。从景观生态学的角度着重介绍了岸堤(岸坡)生态系统的组成和主要特征、生态岸堤的多种功能和景观生态学内涵；提出了在生态岸堤设计中的坚持生态优先，同时重视景观性和稳定性；根据使用材料的不同对岸堤进行分类,对生态岸堤的植物群落的构建进行分析。本文可为从而为生态岸堤的构建、河流、洪泛区的治理提供一定的思路和参考。     

自来水行业面临的挑战及对策

自来水行业是一种关系公众切身利益的、自然垄断的经营性产业。通过分析，认为由于受旧的体制影响和多种原因，我国自来水行业目前面临着巨大的困难和挑战；指出要实现我国自来水行业的振兴，必须调整水价，改革体制，扩大市场，发展多种相关水的产业，增强全社会保护和合理利用水资源的意识。     

天然膨润土吸附Cu2+的动力学、等温线及热力学研究

文章讨论了不同影响因素如接触时间、振荡速度、膨润土用量、初始离子浓度、初始pH、温度等对膨润土吸附性能的影响,研究了Cu2+在天然膨润土上吸附的动力学、等温线和热力学理论。动力学研究数据表明,吸附满足准二级动力学模型,吸附初始阶段受界面扩散控制,45 min后受粒子内扩散控制;吸附满足Freundlich等温线模型;吸附是一个自发的、吸热的过程,而且反应不可逆。     

甘蔗新品种及主栽品种对褐条病的抗性评价

褐条病是为害甘蔗叶部的重要真菌病害,严重发病田块,一眼望去似“火烧状”,一般减产18％ ～35％,蔗糖分降低15％ ～30％[1].该病于1924年在古巴首次发现[2],至今已有20多个国家报道发生此病,常造成不同程度经济损失[3].在中国,尤其近年,感病品种加上多雨高湿导致褐条病在云南及广西等主产蔗区大面积暴发流行,...     

Total Phenolic Levels,In Vitro Antioxidant Properties,and Fatty Acid Profile of Two Microalgae,Tetraselmis marina Strain IMA043 and Naviculoid Diatom Strain IMA053, Isolated from the North Adriatic Sea

This work studied the potential biotechnological applications of a naviculoid diatom (IMA053) and a green microalga (Tetraselmis marina IMA043) isolated from the North Adriatic Sea. Water, methanol, and dichloromethane (DCM) extracts were prepared from microalgae biomass and evaluated for total phenolic content (TPC) and in vitro antioxidant properties. Biomass was profiled for fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) composition. The DCM extracts had the highest levels of total phenolics, with values of 40.58 and 86.14 mg GAE/g dry weight (DW in IMA053 and IMA043, respectively). The DCM extracts had a higher radical scavenging activity (RSA) than the water and methanol ones, especially those from IMA043, with RSAs of 99.65% toward 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)diammonium salt (ABTS) at 10 mg/mL, and of 103.43% against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) at 5 mg/mL. The DCM extract of IMA053 displayed relevant copper chelating properties (67.48% at 10 mg/mL), while the highest iron chelating activity was observed in the water extract of the same species (92.05% at 10 mg/mL). Both strains presented a high proportion of saturated (SFA) and monounsaturated (MUFA) fatty acids. The results suggested that these microalgae could be further explored as sources of natural antioxidants for the pharmaceutical and food industry and as feedstock for biofuel production.
