Zusammenfassung Indicatoren für lang- und kurzzeitige Umweltbelastungen in verschiedenen geographischen Regionen mit ihren verschiedenartigen Belastungsgraden (z. B. Industrie, Landwirtschaft u. a.) sind weltweit mehr und mehr von Interesse. Die wichtigste Frage dabei ist, wie aussagefähig ein bestimmter Indicator für den Stand der Umweltbelastung betrachtet werden kann.Verschiedene Materialien wie Pflanzen, Tiere (Ganztiere bzw. Organe), Organe des Menschen (z. B. Placenta) und Böden wurden in den letzten Jahren als geeignete Indicatoren diskutiert. In verschiedenen Forschungsprogrammen unserer Arbeitsgruppe sind wir mit diesen Fragestellungen intensiv beschäftigt. Materialien wie menschliche Placenta, verschiedene Tierarten und deren Organe, Pflanzen und Böden wurden dabei untersucht, um geeignete Indicatormaterialien zu finden. An Hand einiger ausgewählter Beispiele soll die Aussagefähigkeit dieser Materialien diskutiert werden, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf die Unterscheidung zwischen normaler biologischer Streuung der Daten und dem Einfluß der Umwelt gelegt werden soll. Etwa 20 Elemente mit essentiellen Spurenelementen wie Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn usw. und toxischen Elementen wie Pb, Cd, Hg, As usw. wurden dabei untersucht.
Examinations on the suitability of different types of samples as indicators for heavy metal pollution
Summary Indicators for long- and short-term environmental pollution in different regions with different environmental influences (agriculture, industry, etc.) become world-wide more and more of interest. The main question in this connection is how a substance can give evidence for environmental research.Different materials like human placenta, animals (or some organs of these), plants and soils have been discussed in the last few years for use as indicator substances. The use of bioindicators will be discussed in this paper by means of some examples from the research work of our laboratory. About twenty elements, including nearly all the heavy metals like As, Hg, Cd, Pb, etc. and essential trace elements like Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, etc. have been investigated in these experiments. Main emphasis is laid on the differentiation between normal biological scattering of data and the environmental influence.

The thermal excitation of artificial brushite in dried air and normal atmosphere generates the following reactions: We could not register the monotropic γ→β and β→χ transformations by DTA. At low pH2O values unstable inordinate intermediates are formed until the exothermic transformation, at high pH2O value and in water a stable, secondary hydrogen phosphate of ordinate crystal lattice and γ-pyrophosphate originate. The amorphous intermediate compounds are pseudomorphous with the initial brushite. The lack of H2O hinders, whereas the excess of H2O promotes the formation of nuclei and crystallization of monetite and as a result of this its thermal existence region is expanded. Accordingly, during the dehydratation process in dry air the decrease of the 相似文献
The development of an on-column focusing gradient capillary LC method coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (quadrupole-linear ion trap) for the quantitative determination of the anticancer agent ZD1839 (Gefitinib, Iressa) in blood plasma is described. Plasma samples (0.2 ml) were extracted with methyl tert-butyl ether. The analytes of interest, ZD1839 and the internal standard [(2)H8]ZD1839 (ZD1839-d8) were eluted on a 50 mm x 1 mm, 5 microm particle size, capillary ODS Hypersil column using an aqueous ammonium acetate gradient at 40 microl/min. Mass spectrometric detection was performed by a Q-Trap tandem mass spectrometer with electrospray positive ionisation, and monitored in the multiple reaction monitoring transitions 447 >128 and 455 >136, respectively. The limit of quantification of ZD18395 was 0.1 ng/ml. The method proved to be robust, allowing quantification of ZD1839 with sufficient precision, accuracy and sensitivity. 相似文献
