Investigation on acoustic behavior and air permeability of struto nonwovens     

Tao Yang  Xiaoman Xiong  Rajesh Mishra  Jan Novák  Jiří Chaloupek  Filip Sanetrnik  Jiří Militký 《Fibers and Polymers》2016,17(12):2078-2084

This work deals with the study of acoustic performance of struto nonwovens and their relation to fabric air permeability. In order to achieve the objective of the research, sound absorption coefficient of struto nonwovens was determined via impedance tube method, the average value of sound absorption coefficient (α?) was calculated. Air permeability of struto nonwovens was examined by using FX3300 Textech Air Permeability Tester. Results showed that struto nonwoven exhibited good absorption ability at frequency bands 3000-6400 Hz while it was ineffective for frequency lower than 3000 Hz. Struto nonwovens with high GSM and fabric thickness showed better acoustic performance and lower air permeability. It was observed that α? was inversely proportional to air permeability, with correlation coefficient 0.95. It was concluded that air permeability can be used as a criterion of sound absorption behavior of struto nonwovens. A lower air permeability suggests a better sound absorption performance for struto nonwoven fabrics.  相似文献   

Brain anatomy of two-toed sloth (Choloepus didactylus,Linnaeus, 1758): A comparative gross anatomical study of extant xenarthrans     

Letícia Menezes Freitas  Odeony Paulo dos Santos  André Luiz Quagliatto Santos  Fabiano Rodrigues de Melo  Leandro Silveira  Anah Tereza de Almeida Jácomo  Kleber Fernando Pereira  Fabiano Campos Lima 《Anatomia, histologia, embryologia》2020,49(1):130-143

The neural system plays an important role in understanding some features of animals. Anatomical complexity correlates with the increase of functional capacity. Xenarthrans include anteaters (Vermilingua), armadillos (Cingulata) and sloths (Folivora). This group is the base of eutherian mammals, and understanding the anatomy of its neural system could provide data for functional and evolutionary interpretations. The gross anatomy of the xenarthran brain is recorded. Four extant families of Pilosa and two families of Cingulata were sampled. Usual dissection procedures were used, and the brains were analysed macroscopically. The brain of two-toed sloth, three-toed sloth, six-banded armadillo, giant anteater and collared anteater are gyrencephalic. Pygmy anteater, nine-banded armadillo, great long-nosed armadillo, southern naked-tailed armadillo and giant armadillo are lissencephalic. In most species, the rhinal fissure presents two segments, rostral and caudal (except in Vermilingua and three-toed sloth). The diencephalon and brainstem present similar anatomy. The cerebellum is wide and presents four lobes (rostral, central, caudal and floccular). Its average volume is 12.16% (Folivora), 14.26% (Vermilingua) and 18.61% (Cingulata). Among these groups, there is a statistical difference between Folivora/Cingulata concerning the cerebellum average. The general pattern of the brain of the xenarthrans is similar to that of other mammals.  相似文献   

Total organic carbon and its composition in long-term field experiments in the Czech Republic     

Jaromír Kubát  Dana Cerhanová  Jitka Nováková  Jan Lipavský 《Archives of Agronomy and Soil Science》2013,59(5):495-505

Abstract

Total organic carbon content and its composition have been evaluated in the topsoil in the selected plots of 13 long-term field experiments conducted in different soil and climate conditions. The altitude of the sites ranged from 225 – 670 m above sea level. Four variants of the organic and mineral fertilization were selected in each experiment: Nil, which did not receive any organic or mineral fertilizers since the beginning of the experiment, mineral fertilized variant NPK, organic fertilized (manured) variant FYM and both organic and mineral fertilized variant FYM + NPK. Total organic carbon (C) content in the topsoil differed as a result of the soil and climate conditions (it ranged from 0.96 – 1.80% C in the Nil variants) and due to the organic and mineral fertilization. The inert and decomposable part of the soil organic C content was calculated and the hot water soluble carbon content was determined. Relationships between the individual SOM fractions have shown a highly significant correlation, except for the decomposable C calculated as a difference to Nil variant.  相似文献   

Zum Problem der Nebenwirkungen von Insektiziden in den Agrocoenosen     

Václav Skuhravý  Karel Novák 《Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands)》1968,15(3):289-298

Zusammenfassung Die Nebenwirkung von Insektiziden auf die Lebensgemeinschaften der Kulturen ist desto tiefer und durchgreifender, um je dauerhaftere Kulturen es sich handelt. Obwohl in den Agrocoenosen Selbstregulation und Gleichgewicht fehlen, bestehen hier doch bedeutende quantitative Zusammenhänge zwischen Schädlingen und ihren Räubern und Parasiten. Diese Zusammenhänge werden an Beispielen von Hauptschädlingen der Hackfrüchte dargestellt.Es wird vorgeschlagen, schon bei der Prüfung von Insektiziden die Wirkungsweise des Insektizides auf die wichtigsten natürlichen Feinde von Schädlingen zu untersuchen.

Summary In the agrocoenoses the intensity of the side effects of insecticides is in proportion to the degree of permanency of the cultures. Although the agrocoenoses do not represent a self-regulated and balanced ecological unit, there are, however, quantitative correlations between the pests and their predators and parasites. These interrelations are demonstrated by examples from the main pests of the root crops.It is suggested that the effects of insecticides on the most important natural enemies of the pests be examined already in the testing stage of the insecticides.

Résumé Les effects secondaires des insecticides sur les agrocénoses sont d'autant plus importants et actifs qu'il s'agit de cultures permanentes. Bien que des régulations spontanées et l'equilibre manquent dans les agrocénoses, il existe done d'importants rapports quantitatifs entre les insectes nuisibles et leurs prédateurs et leurs parasites. Ces rapports seront illustrés par des exemples des principaux insectes nuisibles aux plantes sarclées.On propose d'étudier, dès la mise à l'essai des différents insecticides, le mode d'action de chaque insecticide sur les ennemis naturels les plus importants des insectes nuisibles.

The effect of growth regulators on meristem tip development and in vitro multiplication ofSolanum tuberosum L. plants     

F. J. Novák  J. Zadina  V. Horáĉková  I. Maŝková 《Potato Research》1980,23(2):155-166

Summary We studied the effect of β-indoleacetic acid (IAA), α-naphthylacetic acid (NAA), kinetin (K), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and gibberellic acid (GA₃) on development of isolated meristems of four potato cultivars (subsp. tuberosum). GA₃ had a stimulating effect on in vitro meristem growth. The differences among the cultivars are presented. K+IAA+GA₃ induced formation of multiple shoots. We describe a method of continual plant multiplication under in vitro conditions and propose the produce for maintenance, multiplication and virus eradication of potato germplasm and cultivars.

Zusammenfassung Von vier Kartoffelsorten (Blanik, Cira, Nora und Radka) wurden die Meristemspitzen entnommen. Der N?hrboden enthielt Makround Mikroelemente gem?ss Murashige & Skoog (1962), Vitamine entsprechend B-5 (Gamborg et al., 1968), 100mg/l Inositol, 30 g/l Saccharose und 8 g/l Agar. Wir untersuchten die Wirkung von β-Indolessigs?ure (IAA), α-Naphytlessigs?ure (NAA), Kinetin (K), 6-Benzylaminopurin (BAP) und Gibberellins?ure (GA₃). Auf den N?hrb?den mit IAA und NAA wurde mangelhaftes Triebwachstum und unvollst?ndige Blattentwicklung (Abb. 1) festgestellt; die Pflanzen konnten nicht in Erde versetzt werden. K (0.1 μM) induzierte vollst?ndige Pflanzenentwicklung (Tabelle 1), w?hrend BAP (0,1μM) die Triebenentwicklung anregte, worauf die Bewurzelung auf N?hrboden mit 0,1 μM IAA (Abb. 2) erfolgte. Alle GA₃-Konzentrationen hatten einen vorteilhaften Einfluss auf die Entwicklung von Pfl?nzchen aus Meristemspitzen (Abb. 1 und Tabelle 1). Optimales Wachstum und rasche Entwicklung der Pflanzen aller vier Sorten wurde mit dem N?hrboden mit IAA+K+GA₃ erreicht. Mehrfache Triebbildung erfolgte auf den Medien mit erh?hten GA₃-Konzentrationen (5 und 10 μM), speziell bei den Sorten Cira und Blanik (Abb. 3). Die Pflanzen aus der Meristemspitzenkultur konnten unter sterilen Bedingungen in Perlit, das mit der Hoagland's-L?sung und mit einem Zusatz von 0,1 μM IAA ges?ttigt war, fortlaufend vermehrt werden. Die Pflanzen entwickeln sich aus Achselknospen. Ein Steckling aus einem Meristem ist f?hig, 5–8 Pflanzen in zwei Monaten hervorzubringen. Der Artikel beschreibt das System der mehrfachen Triebbildung und die laufende Fortpflanzung in vitro zur Erhaltung und Vermehrung von Kartoffel-Keimplasma (Westcott et al., 1977) und virusfreien Züchtungen (Abb. 4).

Résumé Des méristèmes apicaux ont été prélevés sur quatre variétés de pommes de terre: Blanik, Cira, Nora et Radka. Le milieu de culture contenait des macro-et microéléments d'après les indications de Murashige & Skoog (1962), des vitamines B-5 (d'après Gamborg et al., 1968), 100 mg/l d'inositol, 30 g/l de sucrose et 8 g/l d'agar. Nous avons étudié l'action de l'acide β-indoleacetic (IAA), de l'acide α-naphtylacétique (NAA), de la kinétine (K), de la 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) et de l'acide gibberellic (GA₃). Sur les milieux contenant de l'IAA et du NAA, nous avons observé un développement imparfait des pousses, et un développement partiel des feuilles (fig. l); les plantes ne pouvaient pas être transplantées en terre. K (0,1 μM) a induit un développement complet des plantes (tableau 1) tandis que le BAP (0,1 μM) a stimulé le développement des pousses suivi de leur enracinement dans le milieu contenant 0,1 μM d'IAA (fig. 2). Toutes les concentrations de GA₃ ont eu un effet bénéfique sur le développement des plantules issues de méristèmes apicaux (fig. 1 et tableau 1). La croissance optimale et le développement rapide des plantes des 4 variétés ont été observés sur le milieu contenant IAA+K+GA₃. Des pousses multiples se sont formées sur les milieux contenant des concentrations élevées en GA₃ (5 et 10 μM), notamment sur les variétés Cira et Blanik (fig. 3). Les plantes obtenues à partir de culture de méristèmes apicaux ont p? être continuellement propagées en conditions stériles dans de la perlite saturée d'une solution de Hoagland avec addition de 0,1 μM de IAA. Les plantes se développent à partir des bourgeons axillaires; une plantule d'origine méristématique est capable de donner naissance à 5 à 8 plantes en 2 mois. L'article décrit le système de formation des pousses multiples et la propagation continue in vitro pour la maintenance et la multiplication de variétés de pommes de terre indemnes de maladies (Westcott et al., 1977) et de virus (fig. 4).

Pathogenic profile and cytotoxic activity of Aeromonas spp. isolated from Pectinatella magnifica and surrounding water in the South Bohemian aquaculture region     

Hana Šubrtová Salmonová  Matilde Marchi  Ivo Doskočil  Tereza Kodešová  Eva Vlková 《Journal of fish diseases》2020,43(10):1213-1227

Pectinatella magnifica is an invasive freshwater bryozoan that has expanded in many localities worldwide, including fishing areas. It contains microbial communities, predominantly consisting of Aeromonas bacteria that are frequently associated with fish infections. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential pathogenicity of Aeromonas spp. associated with P. magnifica and evaluate the health risks for fish. Aeromonas strains were isolated from P. magnifica (101 strains) and from surrounding water (29 strains) in the South Bohemian region and investigated for the presence of 14 virulence-associated genes using PCR. We demonstrated high prevalence of phospholipase GCAT, polar flagellin, enolase, DNAse, aerolysin/cytotoxic enterotoxin, serine protease and heat-stable cytotonic enterotoxin-coding genes. Further, all twelve isolates that were analysed for cytotoxicity against intestinal epithelial cells were found to be cytotoxic. Six of the isolates were also tested as co-cultures composed of pairs. Enhanced cytotoxicity was observed when the pair was composed of strains from different species. In conclusion, P. magnifica is colonized by Aeromonas strains that have a relatively high prevalence of virulence-associated genes and the ability to provoke disease. Results also suggest a possibly increased risk arising from mixed infections.  相似文献   

Immobilization of free-ranging maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus) with tiletamine and zolazepam in central Brazil.     

Mariana Malzoni Furtado  Cynthia Kayo Kashivakura  Claudia Ferro  Jácomo Anah Tereza de Almeida  Leandro Silveira  Samuel Astete 《Journal of zoo and wildlife medicine》2006,37(1):68-70

A tiletamine hydrochloride-zolazepam hydrochloride combination was used successfully to immobilize 27 free-ranging maned wolves (Chrysocyon brachyurus) at a mean dose of 2.77+/-0.56 (mean+/-SD) mg/kg. The induction time ranged from 3-15 min. Animals remained immobilized for periods of 48.56 +/-12.65 min. Compulsive licking, excessive salivation, muscle twitching, muscle tremors, tachypnea, and bradycardia were observed associated with the induction of the anesthesia in 13 of 27 maned wolves. Muscle twitching, pedal withdrawal reflex, muscle tremors, and ataxia were observed during recovery in three (11%) maned wolves. There were no significant differences in heart rates (P = 0.44), respiratory rates (P = 0.82), and rectal temperatures (P = 0.54) recorded at 5, 15, and 25 min after induction at these dosages. The tiletamine hydrochloride-zolazepam hydrochloride combination was shown to be an effective and safe immobilizing agent for free-ranging maned wolves.  相似文献
