THE SUSCEPTIBILITY OF MUNG BEAN CHLOROPLASTS TO PHOTOINHIBITION IS INCREASED BY AN EXCESS SUPPLY OF IRON TO PLANTS: A PHOTOBIOLOGICAL ASPECT OF IRON TOXICITY IN PLANT LEAVES

In an attempt to elucidate the underlying mechanisms for iron toxicity in plants, the combined effects of iron overload and light intensities on the photosynthetic capacity of leaves were particularly focussed upon in this study, using mung bean seedlings grown under varied conditions regarding the supply of light and iron. The seedlings, when supplied with excess iron (up to 1.0 m M ) and low light (40 W/m²), did not suffer any loss of photosynthesis; further, the typical symptoms of iron toxicity, as shown in the leaves grown in sunlight at ca 450 W/m² on an average, were not seen in those. Nonetheless, excess iron supply resulted in a marked increase in photosensitivity of the low light-adapted seedlings. A large portion of iron accumulated in chloroplasts by the supply of excess iron was found to be incorporated into thylakoids as nonheme iron (NHI), which acts as a potent sensitizer, photogenerating singlet oxygen (¹O₂). The generation rate of ¹O₂ from thylakoids linearly increased with increasing content of NHI; this was in parallel with the NHI content dependence of photoinactivation rates of photosynthetic electron transport and key enzymes of the Calvin cycle in chloroplasts. The results suggest that Fe-dependent photosensitization reactions, occurring via the ¹O₂ mechanism, may be deeply involved in cellular processes leading to developing iron toxicity symptoms in plants.

Ag(Ⅰ)与Co(Ⅱ)离子对阳极析氧过程的电催化作用

关于Co（Ⅱ）离子对PbO2和Pt电极上阳极析氧过程的催化作用，以及Ag（Ⅰ）离子对阳极氧化过程的催化作用，文献上已早有报导［1－4］，但大都是仅通过总的极化曲线进行对比研究得出的结果．由于在氧析出的同时往往有其它阳极氧化过程同时进行（例如，Co（Ⅱ）或Ag（Ⅰ）的阳极氧化），因此，很难从总的极化曲线得出正确的结论．本文用气体电量计法直接测量氧析出速度，并对Pt和PbO2电极进行了对比，得出了一些新的结果．1实验方法为了直接测量氧析出过程的分电流，实验时串联了一专收集O2的气体库仑计．电解槽和库仑计阳极均安装在各自…

以国产微晶纤维素膜作固体基质五种多环芳烃的室温磷光法研究

本文考察了10种国产纤维素膜用于多环芳烃固体基质室温磷光(SS-RTP)的可行性。实验表明:MN-C和MN-P两种型号的微晶纤维素膜用于多环芳烃的SS-RTP是适宜的。阴离子交换纤维素膜、CM-纤维素膜和聚酰胺-6膜也能诱导出多环芳烃的RTP来,但其性能逊于前两种。故本文应用MN-C和MN-P两种微晶纤维素膜基质考察了五种多环芳烃的RTP特征,并建立了它们的SS-RTP新方法。并与用滤纸作基质的实验结果进行了比较,表明两种新的固体基质的RTP性能优于滤纸基质。

Cholesterol-based hydrogen-bonded liquid crystals

Hydrogen bonding is a powerful tool for assembling molecules and building new liquid crystalline structures. In this study, non-symmetric dimesogens were prepared by intermolecular hydrogen bonding between rationally designed H-bond donor (3-cholesteryloxycarbonylpentanoic acid) and acceptor (4-(pyridine-4-ylmethyleneimino)phenyl 4-alkoxybenzoate) moieties. Their liquid crystalline properties were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Cholesteric and smectic phases were observed. As for the covalently linked dimesogens, several types of smectic periodicities occur for these H-bonded cholesteryl compounds depending on the molecular parameters.     

Synthesis and photoinduced memory effect of poly[2-N-carbazolylethyl acrylate-co-2-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyloxy) ethyl methacrylate]

Copolymers containing an intramolecular electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex were synthesized by free radical copolymerization of 2-N-carbazolylethyl acrylate and 2-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyloxy)ethyl methacrylate. Glass transition temperatures show a positive deviation from the weight-average values of copolymers, indicating the presence of the specific EDA interaction in copolymers in the solid state. Photoinduced “memory effect,” which is defined as the percentage of the difference of the surface potential given by corona charging before and after irradiation of light on polymer films, was 30% for the copolymer with 5 mol% of acceptor content. Memory effect increased to 70% for a 8 μm film by doping with 2 wt% of trichloroacetic acid (TCAA), and leveled off at 5 wt% of TCAA content. Memory effect was also enhanced by increasing the thickness of polymer films and irradiation time. The largest value of memory effect (85%) was obtained from the film of the copolymer with 5 mol% acceptor content doped with 1 wt% TCAA and with thickness larger than 14 μm.     

Studies on the phase properties of lyotropic liquid crystals of Brij35/sodium oleate/oleic acid/water system:By means of polarizing microscope,SAXS,~2H-NMR and rheological methods

The pseudo-quaternary phase diagram of Brij35/sodium oleate/oleic acid/water systems has been investigated, and the liquid crystal area has been identified, which covers about two thirds of the whole phase diagram. The liquid crystal structure and behavior have been also studied by using polarizing texture, small angle X-ray scattering, 2H-NMR and rheometer etc. The result shows that when the composition of the system changes along the line of AA′ in this large liquid crystal region, the structural change is cubic→cubic/lamellar→lamellar→lamellar/hexagonal→hexagonal. Meanwhile, we made the first attempt of systematic study of the rheological properties of the above system. The lattice constants of cubic and hexagonal liquid crystals are 10.53 and 5.68 nm, respectively.
