运输密度和时间对单环刺螠保活运输品质的影响

为探讨单环刺螠无水保活运输的适宜密度和时间,通过分析对照组、低密度组、中密度组和高密度组单环刺螠的生理应激和品质指标,考察了在4°C条件下,不同运输密度和时间对单环刺螠的影响。试验结果表明,在所有试验时间点,3个密度组单环刺螠的皮质醇含量均显著高于对照组（P<0.05）,胁迫24 h后,持水力和乳酸含量与对照组相比均发生显著变化（P<0.05）;运输密度胁迫对葡萄糖含量的影响较大,12～60 h,高密度组葡萄糖含量均显著高于低密度组和中密度组（P<0.05）;而36和60 h,各密度组之间超氧化物歧化酶活力没有显著差异（P>0.05）;各组丙二醛含量变化与超氧化物歧化酶变化趋势相同。在单环刺螠的保活运输过程中,推荐中运输密度<1.0 kg/L、运输时间<24 h,可以更好地保持单环刺螠的品质。     

单环刺螠精巢年周期发育及精子发生

采用组织学方法观察了单环刺螠(Urechis unicinctus)精巢的形态结构及其年周期发育,并利用超微技术观察了精子的发生过程。结果表明,单环刺螠的精巢呈条带状,位于虫体尾部,两端通过肌束分别与呼吸肠管壁外侧和体壁内侧相连。精巢由生精细胞团与结缔组织组成,结缔组织位于精巢中央,精原细胞团分布于结缔组织外周,精母细胞团散布于结缔组织内,各级精母细胞脱离精巢落入体腔液中,历经精母细胞、精细胞,最后形成精子脱离细胞团进入肾管。根据精巢的组织学特征,将单环刺螠的精巢年周期发育划分为增殖期、生长期、成熟期、排放期和休止期5个时期。光镜和电镜下观察了精巢和体腔液中精子发生各时期的结构变化,包括细胞核形态的变化、顶体发生以及尾部的形成。本研究揭示了单环刺螠的精巢发育特点、精子发生历经的场所和分化特征。

Short-term storage and cryopreservation of Urechis unicinctus (Echiura: Urechidae) sperm

In the present study, attempts were made to preserve Urechis unicinctus sperm at 4°C. Cryopreservation procedures were optimized for various cryoprotectants and freezing rates, equilibration times and dilution ratios. During short‐term storage, the motility of undiluted sperm was extended for 6 days of cold storage,and in 70% and 100% artificial seawater only persisted for 2 and 4 days respectively. The survival rate of undiluted sperm was maintained at a high level accordingly. After cryopreservation, the highest motility and survival rate (41.5±2.2%) were obtained in 15% dimethyl sulphoxide (Me₂SO) using a freezing rate of 30°C min^?1. After thawing the sperm cryopreserved in glycerol lost almost all motility. The motility and survival rate of post‐thawing sperm did not show significant differences after 8 and 15 min equilibration using 15% Me₂SO as cryoprotectant; the values were significantly higher than those of 2 min equilibration. Comparisons of motility and survival rate between treatments pooled by dilution ratio showed that the effect of 1:1 ratio (sperm volume to cryoprotectant volume) was best. There was no difference between 1:3 and 1:5, and other ratioswere significantly worse.

单环刺螠生物扰动对沉积物-水界面氮磷扩散通量的影响

为了解单环刺螠生物扰动作用对沉积物-水界面氮磷扩散通量的影响及其持续性,于2020年11—12月,采用室内实验生态学的方法,设置低密度 (LD,500 尾/m²)、中密度 (MD,2 500 尾/m²)、高密度 (HD,8 300 尾/m²)处理组和1个对照组 (CO,0 尾/m²),进行了2 d为一个实验时段,为期20 d的模拟实验。结果显示,处理组溶解无机氮(DIN)扩散通量变化范围为10.6~765.3 μmol/(m²·d),与对照组相比,低、中、高处理组的DIN通量分别提高了57%、76%、88%。NH₄⁺是DIN的主要贡献者,对DIN的贡献在低、中、高处理组中分别占55%、65%和80%。与对照组相比,低、中、高密度组的平均NH₄⁺通量分别提高了39%、111%和257%,与低、中密度处理组平均NH₄⁺通量相比,高密度处理组分别提高了43.7%和23.6%。在第2~10天,NH₄⁺通量处于持续增加的趋势。处理组PO₄³⁻通量变化范围为−7.85~6.42 μmol/(m²·d),第2~6天,处理组PO₄³⁻通量持续增加。研究表明,单环刺螠的生物扰动能够持续地促进DIN由沉积物向水体中扩散,且存在明显的密度效应。研究结果将为深入认识单环刺螠在水层-底栖系统耦合过程中的生态作用提供基础数据。     

Extraction and Identification of Three New Urechis unicinctus Visceral Peptides and Their Antioxidant Activity

The viscera of Urechis unicinctus with polypeptides, fatty acids, and amino acids are usually discarded during processing to food. In order to improve the utilization value of the viscera of Urechis unicinctus and avoid resource waste, antioxidant polypeptides were isolated from the viscera of Urechis unicinctus. First, a protein hydrolysate of Urechis unicinctus (UUPH) was prepared by ultrasonic-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis, and the degree of hydrolysis was as high as 79.32%. Subsequently, three new antioxidant peptides (P1, P2, and P3) were purified from UUPH using ultrafiltration and chromatography, and their amino acid sequences were identified as VTSALVGPR, IGLGDEGLRR, TKIRNEISDLNER, respectively. Then, the antioxidant activity of the polypeptide was predicted by the structure–activity relationship and finally verified by experiments on eukaryotic cells. The P1 peptide exhibited the strongest antioxidant activity among these three antioxidant peptides. Furthermore, P1, P2, and P3 have no toxic effect on RAW264.7 cells at the concentration of 0.01~2 mg/mL and can protect RAW264.7 cells from H₂O₂-induced oxidative damage in a concentration-dependent manner. These results suggested that these three new antioxidant peptides were isolated from the viscera of Urechis unicinctus, especially the P1 peptide, which might serve as potential antioxidants applied in health-derived food or beverages. This study further developed a new use of the by-product of Urechis unicinctus, which improved the comprehensive utilization of marine biological resources.
