Mathematical Models for Studying Environment Pollution Risks

The problem of longterm ecological prediction by means of mathematical modeling with available factual data on climate dynamics is discussed. The technique of quantitative estimates of risk/vulnerability on the basis of forward and inverse modeling and methods of the sensitivity theory is described. Examples of the calculated risk domains for Lake Baikal are given.

Lactic acid bacteria in dairy food: Surface characterization and interactions with food matrix components

This review gives an overview of the importance of interactions occurring in dairy matrices between Lactic Acid Bacteria and milk components. Dairy products are important sources of biological active compounds of particular relevance to human health. These compounds include immunoglobulins, whey proteins and peptides, polar lipids, and lactic acid bacteria including probiotics. A better understanding of interactions between bioactive components and their delivery matrix may successfully improve their transport to their target site of action. Pioneering research on probiotic lactic acid bacteria has mainly focused on their host effects. However, very little is known about their interaction with dairy ingredients. Such knowledge could contribute to designing new and more efficient dairy food, and to better understand relationships between milk constituents. The purpose of this review is first to provide an overview of the current knowledge about the biomolecules produced on bacterial surface and the composition of the dairy matter. In order to understand how bacteria interact with dairy molecules, adhesion mechanisms are subsequently reviewed with a special focus on the environmental conditions affecting bacterial adhesion. Methods dedicated to investigate the bacterial surface and to decipher interactions between bacteria and abiotic dairy components are also detailed. Finally, relevant industrial implications of these interactions are presented and discussed.     

Liquid extraction surface analysis in-line coupled with capillary electrophoresis for direct analysis of a solid surface sample

A surface-sampling technique of liquid extraction surface analysis (LESA) was in-line coupled with capillary electrophoresis (CE) to expand the specimen types for CE to solid surfaces. The new direct surface analysis method of LESA–CE was applied to the determination of organophosphorus pesticides, including glufosinate-ammonium, aminomethylphosphonic acid, and glyphosate on the external surface of a fruit such as apple. Without any sample pretreatment, the analytes sprayed on the surface of a half apple were directly extracted into a liquid microjunction formed by dispensing the extractant from the inlet tip of a separation capillary. After extraction, the analytes were derivatized in-capillary with a fluorophore 4-fluoro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole and analyzed with CE-laser induced fluorescence (LIF). The limits of detection for glufosinate-ammonium, aminomethylphosphonic acid, and glyphosate were 2.5, 1, and 10 ppb, respectively, which are at least 20 times lower than the tolerance limits established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Thus, we demonstrated that LESA–CE is a quite sensitive and convenient method to determine analytes on a solid surface avoiding the dilution from sample pretreatment procedures including homogenization of a bulk sample.     

Sampling and analytical framework for routine environmental monitoring of organic pollutants

Dubious data would lead to incorrect interpretations and consequently faulty conclusions. Environmental monitoring results therefore have to be unambiguous to avoid misunderstanding the problems under investigation. Representative sampling and appropriate laboratory procedures are keys to acquiring quality data in order to draw unbiased conclusions.Although a large number of studies on organic pollutants have been published, few efforts have been directed towards instituting a systematic framework from sampling design to instrumental analysis. Generally, the main components in such a framework should include sampling design, sample preparation, sample extraction, extract purification and fractionation, and quantification (including qualitative and quantitative analyses).This review outlines the sampling and analytical framework appropriate for routine monitoring of organic pollutants, particularly persistent organic pollutants widely occurring in the environment. We emphasize statistically-based sampling schemes and quality-assurance and quality-control measures desirable for environmental monitoring programs.By way of demonstrating their importance, we especially review procedures for collecting unconventional environmental samples (e.g., human blood, breast milk, human hair, fish and bird tissues, and ice and snow) and analytical methods for typical emerging organic chemicals.

Ni-Mn双金属氧化物微马达用于高效染料吸附

通过水热结合高温退火的方法制备了一种Ni-Mn双金属氧化物微马达,所得Ni-Mn双金属氧化物具有针刺状空心结构,可作为马达材料。该Ni-Mn双金属氧化物微马达在燃料(H₂O₂)质量分数仅为1%时显示出很强的驱动能力,运动速度为83.75μm·s^-1,寿命高于90 min。即使在H₂O₂质量分数低至0.4%时,该马达仍具有优异的自主运动。由于镍氧化物的存在,该马达可通过磁场控制实现定向运动。得益于优异的催化性能和磁性,该Ni₆MnO₈马达可在160 s内有效去除亚甲基蓝,且没有二次污染。
