description: Chlorine solution was added to the water encapsulated within a proprietary ‘floating dock’ to treat a vessel infested with the invasive polychaete Sabella spallanzanii. The chlorine was added as sodium dichloroisocyanurate (‘dichlor’) at an initial concentration of 200 mg l−1 of free available chlorine (FAC). This concentration killed 99% of S. spallanzanii in their tubes during a 4-h exposure in laboratory tests (EC99 160 mg FAC l−1). The concentration of FAC in the floating dock declined to ~50 mg l−1 after 4 h and –1 after 16 h. Residual FAC was neutralised with thiosulphate at completion of exposure. A sample of 30 S. spallanzanii individuals collected from the hull after treatment all showed morphological damage and 28 showed no response to touch. Re-examination of the hull after 6 d found no live worms or other fouling organisms. This method provides a cost-effective, rapid means of treating hull fouling.

description: The surface chemistry of aquatic organisms determines their biotic interactions. Metabolites in the spatially limited laminar boundary layer mediate processes, such as antifouling, allelopathy and chemical defense against herbivores. However, very few methods are available for the investigation of such surface metabolites. An approach is described in which surfaces are extracted by means of C18 solid phase material. By powdering wet algal surfaces with this material, organic compounds are adsorbed and can be easily recovered for subsequent liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) investigations. The method is robust, picks up metabolites of a broad polarity range and is easy to handle. It is more universal compared to established solvent dipping protocols and it does not cause damage to the test organisms. A protocol is introduced for the macroalgae Fucus vesiculosus, Caulerpa taxifolia and Gracilaria vermiculophylla, but it can be easily transferred to other aquatic organisms.

description: Transmembrane protein 16A (TMEM16A), also called Ano1, is a Ca2+ activated Cl− channel expressed widely in mammalian epithelia, as well as in vascular smooth muscle and some tumors and electrically excitable cells. TMEM16A inhibitors have potential utility for treatment of disorders of epithelial fluid and mucus secretion, hypertension, some cancers and other diseases. 4-Aryl-2-amino thiazole T16Ainh-01 was previously identified by high-throughput screening. Here, a library of 47 compounds were prepared that explored the 5,6-disubstituted pyrimidine scaffold found in T16Ainh-01. TMEM16A inhibition activity was measured using fluorescence plate reader and short-circuit current assays. We found that very little structural variation of T16Ainh-01 was tolerated, with most compounds showing no activity at 10 μM. The most potent compound in the series, 9bo, which substitutes 4-methoxyphenyl in T16Ainh-01 with 2-thiophene, had IC50 ∼1 μM for inhibition of TMEM16A chloride conductance.

description: DNA methylation can be affected by systemic exposures, such as cigarette smoking and genetic sequence variation; however, the relative impact of each on the epigenome is unknown. We aimed to assess if cigarette smoking and genetic variation are associated with overlapping or distinct sets of DNA methylation marks and pathways. We selected 85 Caucasian current and former smokers with genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping available from the COPDGene study. Genome-wide methylation was obtained on DNA from whole blood using the Illumina HumanMethylation27 platform. To determine the impact of local sequence variation on DNA methylation (mQTL), we examined the association between methylation and SNPs within 50 kb of each CpG site. To examine the impact of cigarette smoking on DNA methylation, we examined the differences in methylation by current cigarette smoking status. We detected 770 CpG sites annotated to 708 genes associated at an FDR < 0.05 in the cis-mQTL analysis and 1,287 CpG sites annotated to 1,242 genes, which were nominally associated in the smoking-CpG association analysis (Punadjusted < 0.05). Forty-three CpG sites annotated to 40 genes were associated with both SNP variation and current smoking; this overlap was not greater than that expected by chance. Our results suggest that cigarette smoking and genetic variants impact distinct sets of DNA methylation marks, the further elucidation of which may partially explain the variable susceptibility to the health effects of cigarette smoking. Ascertaining how genetic variation and systemic exposures differentially impact the human epigenome has relevance for both biomarker identification and therapeutic target development for smoking-related diseases.

A simultaneous derivatization of 3-monochloropropanediol and 1,3-dichloropropane with hexamethyldisilazane–trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate at room temperature for efficient analysis of food sample analysis

description: This paper reports the application of hexamethyldisilazane-trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (HMDS-TMSOTf) for the simultaneous silylation of 3-monochloro-1,2-propanediol (3-MCPD) and 1,3-dicholoropropanol (1,3-DCP) in solid and liquid food samples. 3-MCPD and 1,3-DCP are chloropropanols that have been established as Group 2B carcinogens in clinical testing. They can be found in heat-processed food, especially when an extended high-temperature treatment is required. However, the current AOAC detection method is time-consuming and expensive. Thus, HMDS-TMSOTf was used in this study to provide a safer, and cost-effective alternative to the HFBI method. Three important steps are involved in the quantification of 3-MCPD and 1,3-DCP: extraction, derivatization and quantification. The optimization of the derivatization process, which involved focusing on the catalyst volume, derivatization temperature, and derivatization time was performed based on the findings obtained from both the Box-Behnken modeling and a real experimental set up. With the optimized conditions, the newly developed method was used for actual food sample quantification and the results were compared with those obtained via the standard AOAC method. The developed method required less samples and reagents but it could be used to achieve lower limits of quantification (0.0043 mg L-1 for 1,3-DCP and 0.0011 mg L-1 for 3-MCPD) and detection (0.0028 mg L-1 for 1,3-DCP and 0.0008 mg L-1 for 3-MCPD). All the detected concentrations are below the maximum tolerable limit of 0.02 mg L-1. The percentage of recovery obtained from food sample analysis was between 83% and 96%. The new procedure was validated with the AOAC method and showed a comparable performance. The HMDS-TMSOTf derivatization strategy is capable of simultaneously derivatizing 1,3-DCP and 3-MCPD at room temperature, and it also serves as a rapid, sensitive, and accurate analytical method for food samples analysis.

description: Understanding the physiology of dry-matter accumulation and nutrient uptake pattern of an onion crop is an essential criteria for optimizing fertilizer practices. An experiment was conducted to estimate the dry-matter accumulation and nutrient uptake pattern of short day onion. The dry-matter accumulation and nutrient uptake followed the sigmoid growth curve pattern. Uptake of nitrogen and potassium was slow for the first 15 days followed by rapid uptake from 15 to 60 days after transplanting and accounted for 76.2–78.2% of total uptake. Takeup of phosphorus, sulfur, manganese, zinc, and copper uptake was greater during 30 to 75 days after transplanting and accounted for 64.9–70.6% of total uptake. The deficiency of nutrients during these period reduces the crop yield significantly. The dry-matter accumulation and nutrient-uptake pattern reported in this study provide an opportunity for optimizing quantity and timing of nutrient application through fertilizers for short day onions.

description: The leaves of Cyclosorus extensa are used in the preparation of rice beer in Assam, India. The optimal conditions of time and temperature of fermentation for extraction of bioactive compounds from the dried leaves were obtained using response surface methodology. The central composite rotatable design was used and 13 experimental runs based on two-factor-five-level design were generated and performed for each of the solvents. The independent variables were extraction time (12 and 48 h) and temperature (25 and 55°C). The responses studied were total polyphenol content, radical scavenging activity, antibacterial activity, and antifungal activity. The analysis of variance of the test data was performed and the sequential sum of squares, F-value, R2, and adjusted R2 were deduced. The predicted models for all the response variables were adequately fitted to the observed experimental data (p ≤ 0.001). The maximum extraction of bioactive compounds under the optimum conditions of extraction temperature and time for hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and distilled water were found to be 25°C for 29.43 h, 28.28°C for 41.27 h, 43.95°C for 29.61 h, and 55.00°C for 48.00 h, respectively. It was also observed that the solubility of the polyphenols was higher in methanol, followed by ethyl acetate, and the highest antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli was shown by the ethyl acetate extracts.

description: Seligman' (1974) theory of learned helplessness and the reformulated hopelessness depression model (Abramson, Metalsky, & Alloy, 1989) suggest that a learned sense of lack of control can lead to a pessimistic explanatory style and subsequently depression. The current study used a retrospective cross-sectional design to investigate whether issues of parental control and affection in the early family environment are associated with the individual's explanatory style and history of depression in adulthood.

The participants,158 undergraduate students, completed self-report measures to assess their level of depressive symptoms, perception of their parents' behavior, and negative stressful events.

Perception of a high level of paternal psychological control was associated with a pessimistic explanatory style in the child. Both pessimistic explanatory style and high levels of negative stressful events were related to more depressive symptoms.

The present study did not support the reformulated hopelessness depression model. Only the main effects of explanatory style and negative stressful events were significant in predicting depressive symptoms. The proposed interaction of explanatory style and negative stressful events did not account for significant variance in depressive symptoms.

The findings of the current study suggest that there may be a connection between psychological control by the father and the child's pessimistic explanatory style. Additionally, the failure of the current study and others to replicate the interaction of explanatory style and negative stressful events in predicting depression may suggest the need for standardized measures specific to the study of hopelessness depression.
No-till and Strip-till Are Widely Adopted but Often Used in Rotation With Other Tillage Practices

description: Tillage prepares soil for planting, controls weeds, incorporates manure or fertilizer that has been spread on the soil surface, mixes crop residue into the soil, and encourages soil warming for early planting. In recent decades, however, farmers have steadily reduced tillage or eliminated its use altogether (no-till). This keeps crop residue on the soil surface, which helps reduce erosion and conserve soil moisture. Recent ERS research shows that roughly half of U.S. corn, cotton, soybean, and wheat producers used either no-till or strip-till at least once between 2012 and 2016. Twenty-one percent used no-till or strip-till every year during the same period.

description: Sample reactivity worth experiments are carried out by substituting aluminum (Al) plates for bismuth (Bi) ones at the Kyoto University Critical Assembly. At the beginning, uncertainty quantification of bismuth isotope is conducted by deterministic calculations with nuclear data library JENDL-4.0, with the use of experimental results of sample reactivity worth. Then, with the combined use of current (Bi) and previous (Pb) experimental results that demonstrate the comparative difference in the sensitivity and uncertainty of Bi and Pb isotopes, experimental results of cross-section uncertainties of Bi isotope are available for examination of neutron characteristics of Pb–Bi coolant material in the accelerator-driven system. From the experimental analyses, further uncertainty analyses by neutron transport calculations are needed for several reactions of Bi isotope, especially with the use of the covariance data of capture, elastic scattering and inelastic scattering reactions in another nuclear data library.

description: This study compared knowledge and compliance with traffic signs among young commercial motorcyclists in rural and urban communities in Oyo state, Nigeria. Information on knowledge and compliance with 10 common traffic signs was obtained from 149 rural and 113 urban commercial motorcyclists aged 18–35 years. Aggregate knowledge scores were computed and categorized as good (≥5) and poor (<5) knowledge. Overall, 98.7% rural versus 61.1% urban motorcyclists had poor knowledge of traffic signs (p < 0.05). After controlling for age, level of education and years of commercial riding, motorcyclists in the rural areas were more likely to have poor knowledge of the traffic signs (OR = 58.15; 95% CI = 11.96–282.79). A higher proportion of rural than urban motorcyclists never obeyed any of the traffic signs. Young rural commercial motorcyclists' knowledge and compliance with the road signs was poorer than their urban counterparts. Interventions to improve the rural motorcyclists' knowledge and ultimately compliance with road signs are urgently required.

description: People and predators often come into conflict - when predators kill livestock, farmers kill predators. When this happens, both sides lose. Some people don't realise that predators are an important part of the ecosystem, and that many predators depend on farmland to survive. People and predators can live together - if appropriate techniques are used by farmers, they will lose fewer animals to predation, and will kill fewer predators. This book is designed to help farmers manage their livestock to minimise predation, benefiting both the farmers and the predators with which they share the land.

description: Microcystins (MCs) are very stable toxins in water bodies and can be poorly removed by traditional drinking water treatment processes. Powder-activated carbon (PAC) was employed in the present study for removal of two commonly and widely occurring algal toxins, microcystin-LR (MC-LR), and microcystin-RR (MC-RR), which were obtained from cyanobacterial blooms. Results indicated that wood PAC has better adsorption capacity on MCs compared with shell and coal PAC. The Freundlich adsorption model can better describe the adsorption behavior of MCs onto PAC. And the pseudo-second-order kinetic model can better fit the adsorption process of MCs onto PAC. Moreover, the adsorption of MCs onto wood PAC was affected by temperature, pH, and anions. The adsorption rates increased with the decreasing temperature. And the adsorption capacity of wood PAC for MCs decreased with the increasing pH. Four kinds of anion hindered the adsorption and reduced the removal rate by 14–24%. Therefore, our study provides valuable information to address the water quality issues caused by microcystins, including selection of the most efficient PAC.

description: Groups of young adults and elderly adults participated in a study examining age-related changes in macrospatial cognitive abilities. Perceptual differentiation/selection abilities were tested using a Landmark Selection task, while temporal-spatial integration abilities were explored through the use of a Scrambled Route task. In the Landmark Selection task, subjects viewed a slide presentation of a walk and then chose the landmarks which best represented the walk. For the Scrambled Route task, after viewing a slide presentation of a scrambled walk, subjects made distance estimations involving pairs of selected landmarks. Also included were self-assessment scales of spatial abilities and two psychometric tests (Picture Arrangement and Identical Pictures Test). It was hypothesized that there would be no age-related differences in the self-assessment scales and in the performance on the two route tasks, but that there would be an age-related decline in the performance on the psychometric tests. Elderly adults exhibited a significantly lower performance level on both experimental tasks, indicating an age-related decrement in macrospatial abilities utilizing perceptual differentiation/selection and temporal-spatial integration, even though their self-assessment ratings indicated otherwise. Performance on the psychometric tests of spatial abilities proved to be predictive of performance on the experimental tests.

description: The new dibasic NNO ligand H2L (H2L = allyl N′-2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidenecarbamohydrazonothioate) was synthesized by condensation of 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde with the product resulting from the reaction of thiosemicarbazide with allyl bromide. Four dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes with the general formula [MoO2L(S)] (S=MeOH, EtOH, DMSO, and 1-methylimidazole) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, EI-MS and UV-Vis spectroscopy, and by X-ray crystallography. Spectroscopic evidence indicates that the cis-MoO2 chelates have octahedral geometry in which H2L coordinates via the phenolate oxygen, azomethine nitrogen and deprotonated thioamide nitrogen. The other sites are occupied by two oxido and an additional ligand (S). Density functional theory calculations of spectral parameters were also carried out for these systems.
Thesis: Genetic and genomic approaches to the conservation of the threatened crucian carp Carassius carassius (L.); phylogeography, hybridisation and introgression

description: ABSTRACT: Biological invasions can have dramatic detrimental impacts on ecosystems, however they also represent rich opportunities to study the evolutionary processes associated with them. Hybridisation and subsequent introgression are two such processes and are common among native and non-native species. The crucian carp, Carassius carassius (L.), is a European freshwater fish that is threatened throughout much of its native range by several factors including hybridisation and introgression with three non-native species, the goldfish, Carassius auratus auratus (L.), the gibel carp, Carassius auratus gibelio (Bloch), and the common carp, Cyprinus carpio (L.). The conservation of C. carassius is hampered by a lack of phylogeographic knowledge for the species and no knowledge of the extent or impact of hybridisation and introgression. Contemporary genomic approaches such as Restriction Site Associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) can offer unprecedented insights into such research areas, however RADseq comes with several sources of potential bias. Exploratory analyses in Chapter 2 show that two sources of bias in particular, null alleles and over merged ohnolog loci, are highly important in this dataset, but can be filtered using population genetics statistics. The filtered dataset is used in phylogeographic analyses in Chapter 3, along with microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA and show that C. carassius exists as two major lineages in Europe, which diverged approximately 2.26 million years ago, and should be treated as separate units for conservation. These lineages result from the C. carassius postglacial recolonisation routes thtough Europe, which are highly distinct from the general patterns seen in other freshwater fish species. These phylogeographic results showed high similarity between C. carassius in England and those in continental Europe, calling into question the presently assumed native status of C. carassius in England, which has been contentious in the past. Empirical tests of this status using microsatellites showed that, in fact, C. carassius is most likely introduced in England around the 15th century, raising interesting discussions pertaining to their conservation in the England. Lastly, in Chapter 5, microsatellite and RADseq approaches show that hybridisation between C. carassius and non-native species is prevalent where they are sympatric, however backcrosses are rare, and there is no evidence of further introgression between the species studied. Taken together, these results suggest that postzygotic mechanisms of isolation limit interspecific gene flow, and conservationists should focus further research on the direct impacts of non-native species and F1 hybrids.

description: The fluidized sediment ecosystem off French Guiana is characterized by active physical reworking, diversity of electron acceptors and highly variable redox regime. It is well studied geochemically but little is known about specific microorganisms involved in its biogeochemistry. Based on the biogeochemical profiles and rate kinetics, several possible biotically mediated pathways of the carbon, sulfur and iron cycles were hypothesized. Enrichment studies were set up with a goal to culture microorganisms responsible for these pathways. Stable microbial consortia potentially capable of the following chemolithoautotrophic types were enriched from the environment and characterized: elemental sulfur/thiosulfate disproportionators, thiosulfate-oxidizing ferrihydrite and nitrate reducers, sulfide/ferrous sulfide oxidizers coupled with nitrate and microaerophilic iron oxidizers. Attempts to generate several enrichments (anoxic ammonia oxidation, and sulfide oxidizers with ferric iron or manganese oxide) were not successful. Heterotrophic sulfate and elemental sulfur reduction bacteria are prominent and dominate reductive sulfur transformations. We hypothesize that carbon dioxide fixation coupled with synthesis of organic matter happens mostly via sulfur disproportionation and sulfur species oxidation with iron oxidation playing a minor role.

description: Developing more or less simultaneously over the last thirty years, water immersion/floatation restricted environmental stimulation techniques (REST) and chamber REST, came to be recognized as two of the most effective methods of minimizing external stimulation to the physical senses. These two environments were compared in a controlled study of 36 male undergraduates, for indications of reduced blood pressure and reductions in self-reported stress. In addition, the participants were assessed for post-treatment differences in self-disclosure, or willingness to share personal information about themselves. Results indicated that for a single one hour session, individuals in the floatation environment achieved significant reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, while individuals in both the chamber and classroom control, yielded non-significant changes. On self-reported stress, all three groups indicated significant reductions with no differences between groups. Finally, there were no significant differences on the Personal Sharing Questionnaire.

description: Stellar models fail to reproduce the radius of M-dwarfs in eclipsing binary systems, as the measured radii are ∼5−20% larger than models predict. To properly calibrate models and understand the physical cause of the scatter in M-dwarf mass-radius relationship, mass and radius measurements are required at least at 5% uncertainty level. For that aim, we obtained new measurements (photometry and spectroscopy) across the M-dwarf mass-radius diagram for new low-mass eclipsing binary systems, discovered in the Catalina Sky Survey and from the WFCAM Transit Survey. Combining radial velocity observations with light curves from the mentioned data archives, and Gaia precise data, we have fully characterised these systems in a model-independent way. With the additional sample we have increased the number of known systems at the end of the mass-radius diagram, allowing to further constrain the causes of the radius anomaly problem.
