Abstract. The research objects were the soils along the river and river sediment of the fourth Liuhe river in Nanjing chemical industrial park. Degrading dynamics of brilliant blue in soils and river sediment and its affecting factors were studied through soil sterilization, the control of temperature and initial concentration of brilliant blue. The degradation rate of brilliant blue in non-sterilized soils and river sediment was respectively 1.010-1.023 times and 1.019-1.051 times of that in sterilized soils and river sediment in 45 d. The degradation quality of brilliant blue in soils and river sediment by microorganism was 0.010-0.029 and 0.021-0.057 mg•kg-1. The half-live in non-sterilized treatment was shorter than that in sterilized treatment. In the range of (10±1)°C-(30±1) °C, the degradation of brilliant blue was accelerated with temperature enhancing. At (30±1)°C, the residual quantity of brilliant blue in soils and river sediment was 0.612 and 0.601 mg•kg-1, the residual quantity and the half-live were both smallest.

This study investigates the degradation of Nonylphenol. The degradation affecting factors including solution ozone dosage, initial concentration, pH, temperature and ultraviolet. The results indicated that when the ozone contents changes, the Nonylphenols degradation rate changes as well. The higher ozone concentration contribute to the faster degradation; With the increase of initial concentration of Nonylphenol, the removal rate of it decrease on the contrary, while with the initial concentration increases, the quality of unit ozone degradation of Nonylphenol is ascenting and then tend to a constant; The remove rate of Nonylphenol is improving when the pH value vary from 4.86~10.34. The effect of Nonylphenols ozonation in higher temperatures is better than it is in lower temperature; Ultraviolet radiation is also favorable for the removal of Nonylphenol as it can shorten the reaction time as well as reduce the amount of ozone.

The photodegradation of atrazine induced by UV-irradiation in aqueous solution was investigated initially. The affecting factors on the photodetradation were studied and described in details such as atrazine initial concentration, temperature, pH value, exposure intensity, oxidant and co-existing substances. It was found that the atrazine initial concentration had no obvious effect on the photodegradation. With the pH value increasing, photodegradation rates decreased. However, we also observed a positive correlation between the degradation rate of atrazine and temperature, exposure intensity and oxidant while the coexisting organic compounds may decelerate photodegradation of the atrazine in water. In this paper, the degradation products had also been confirmed by using LC-MS.

Studies were undertaken to evaluate gaseous pollutants in workplace air within pulp and paper mills and to consider the effectiveness of photo-catalytic treatment of this air. Ambient air at 30 sampling sites in five pulp and paper mills of southern China were sampled and analyzed. The results revealed that formaldehyde and various benzene-based molecules were the main gaseous pollutants at these five mills. A photo-catalytic reactor system with titanium dioxide (TiO2) was developed and evaluated for degradation of formaldehyde, benzene and their mixtures. The experimental results demonstrated that both formaldehyde and benzene in their pure forms could be completely photo-catalytic degraded, though the degradation of benzene was much more difficult than that for formaldehyde. Study of the photo-catalytic degradation kinetics revealed that the degradation rate of formaldehyde increased with initial concentration fitting a first-order kinetics reaction. In contrast, the degradation rate of benzene had no relationship with initial concentration and degradation did not conform to first-order kinetics. The photo-catalytic degradation of formaldehyde-benzene mixtures indicated that formaldehyde behaved differently than when treated in its pure form. The degradation time was two times longer and the kinetics did not reflect a first-order reaction. The degradation of benzene was similar in both pure form and when mixed with formaldehyde.

Holder pasteurization (HoP; 62.5 °C, 30 min) is commonly used to ensure the microbiological safety of donor human milk (DHM) but diminishes its nutritional properties. A high-temperature short-time (HTST) system was designed as an alternative for human milk banks. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of this HTST system on different nutrients and the bile salt stimulated lipase (BSSL) activity of DHM. DHM was processed in the HTST system and by standard HoP. Macronutrients were measured with a mid-infrared analyzer. Lactose, glucose, myo-inositol, vitamins and lipids were assayed using chromatographic techniques. BSSL activity was determined using a kit. The duration of HTST treatment had a greater influence on the nutrient composition of DHM than did the tested temperature. The lactose concentration and the percentage of phospholipids and PUFAs were higher in HTST-treated than in raw DHM, while the fat concentration and the percentage of monoacylglycerides and SFAs were lower. Other nutrients did not change after HTST processing. The retained BSSL activity was higher after short HTST treatment than that following HoP. Overall, HTST treatment resulted in better preservation of the nutritional quality of DHM than HoP because relevant thermosensitive components (phospholipids, PUFAs, and BSSL) were less affected.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to review and evaluate the quality of fidelity of implementation (FOI) reported in experimental research in physical education pedagogy published in the Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport and the Journal of Teaching in Physical Education using a five-component conceptual framework. Methods: Thirty-five intervention studies were coded using a five-item FOI checklist with indicators. For each of the five items, frequencies and percentages were calculated. Results: Authors of intervention studies reported components of FOI including (a) 35 studies assessing program adherence, (b) eight studies assessing dosage/program durations, (c) 30 studies assessing program delivery quality, (d) eight studies assessing participant responses to program interventions, and (e) 19 studies assessing program differentiation. The most frequently reported FOI components were program adherence, program delivery quality, and program differentiation. Conclusions: Researchers have begun to realize the critical importance of FOI in intervention research. Most researchers selected certain FOI components to assess and report at their own discretion. Researchers may need to pay more attention to FOI. The five-component conceptual framework is one method for doing this assessment.

To investigate the degradation, mechanical properties, and histocompatibility of weft-knitted silk mesh-like grafts, we carried out the In Vitro and In Vivo silk grafts degradation assay. The In Vitro degradation experiment was performed by immersing the silk grafts in simulated body fluid for 1 year, and the results showed that the degradation rate of the silk mesh-like grafts was very slow, and there were few changes in the mechanical properties and quality of the silk mesh-like graft. In Vivo degradation assay was taken by implantation of the silk mesh-like grafts into the subcutaneous muscles of rabbits. At 3, 6, and 12 months postoperation, the rate of mass loss was 19.36%, 31.84%, and 58.77%, respectively, and the maximum load was 63.85%, 34.63%, and 10.76%, respectively of that prior to degradation. The results showed that the degradation rate of the silk graft and the loss of mechanical properties In Vivo were faster than the results obtained in the In Vitro experiments. In addition, there were no significant differences in secretion of serum IL-6 and TNF-α between the experimental and normal rabbits (P >0.05), suggesting no obvious inflammatory reaction. The findings suggest that the weft-knitted silk mesh-like grafts have good mechanical properties, histocompatibility, and In Vivo degradation rate, and therefore represent a candidate material for artificial ligament
