Effects of mineral nutrient imbalance,DNA lesion and DNA-protein crosslink on growth of Vicia faba L.seedlings hydroponically cultivated in concentrations of extraneous lanthanum（La） for 20 days were investigated in...Effects of mineral nutrient imbalance,DNA lesion and DNA-protein crosslink on growth of Vicia faba L.seedlings hydroponically cultivated in concentrations of extraneous lanthanum（La） for 20 days were investigated in the present experiment.The results showed that contents of La,Cu or K elements in roots generally changed synchronously with those in leaves,while Ca,Fe,Zn,Mg,Mn or P in the roots altered inversely to those in the leaves.Thus,the extraneous La led to redistribution and imbalance of mineral nutrient elements in the roots and leaves.DNA lesion and DNA-protein crosslink were investigated by single cell gel electrophoresis（SCGE） and sodium dodecyl sulfate/potassium（SDS/K＋） precipitation methods,respectively.The results demonstrated that the increasing La induced DNA break and DNA-protein crosslinks（DPCs） in the seedlings.These results suggested that mineral nutrient imbalance,DNA lesion and DNA-protein crosslink were involved in the growth retardation and growth alteration of the seedlings,which may help to understand the mechanisms of rare earth elements（REEs） on plant growth.展开更多

This is of great concern, particularly with regards to their effect on the soil microorganisms whose functions determine not only the soil quality and function but also influence the air and water quality. This study aimed to analyze and compare, microcalorimetrically, the single chemical toxic effect with the combined effect of copper (Cu) and two of its main flotation collectors, potassium amyl xanthate (PAX) and sodium isoamyl xanthate (SIAX), on soil microbial community. All chemicals, individually and as a binary mixture of copper and each of its flotation collectors, exhibited a significant dose-effect relationship, and the highest and lowest microbial activity inhibition being associated with SIAX and Cu, respectively (e.g. IC 50 of 447.5, 158.3 and 83.9 μg·g?1 soil for copper, PAX and SIAX, respectively). For all cases, the microbial activity was more affected by the mixture than by the individual mixture components. Increasing the xanthates dose (from 25 to 100 μg·g?1 soil) in the mixture with a copper dose of 200 μg·g?1 soil led to the increase of the microbial activity inhibition rate, from 23.08 % to 53.85% in case of PAX and from 26.92% to 57.69% in case of SIAX). Similarly, the toxicity level of the mixture of equitoxic components doses increased with the increased mixture doses. Since the observed activity level can be attributed to the surviving microbes, capable of adapting to both chemical and their mixture, a genetically based analysis should be conducted to allow identifying and characterizing the potentially resistant strains that can be useful for the remediation of the pollution by copper and xanthates and for the sustainability of copper mining and flotation, and for all soil, water, and air quality and function interest.展开更多

Chemical analysis, thermal analysis and Mssbauer spectroscopy have shown that it is asulfate mineral of new structure. Thus an X-ray structure analysis was performed with a single crystal of dimension of 0.2 × 0.2 × 0.4 mm.展开更多
