Examining the relationship between seasonal variations in soil respiration and abiotic factors and vegetation indexes is crucial for modeling soil respiration using upscaled remote sensing satellite data. Selleckchem Avacopan A field experiment including control (CK), warming (WA), straw application (SA), and warming and straw application (WASA) treatments was performed in a winter wheat-soybean rotation cropland on the north shore of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Soil respiration, abiotic factors, crop hyperspectral vegetation indexes, leaf area index (LAI), and chlorophyll content (represented as the SPAD value) were measured during the 2018-2020 rotation growing seasons. The results indicated that the mean annual soil respiration was 2.27 ± 0.04, 3.08 ± 0.06, 3.64 ± 0.08, and 3.95 ± 0.20 μmol m-2 s-1 in the CK, WA, SA, and WASA plots, respectively, during the 2-year experimental period. Soil respiration was significantly (P less then 0.05) correlated with soil temperature, soil moisture, hyperspectral vegetation indexes, LAI, and SPAD value in all plots. Models that included temperature, moisture, hyperspectral vegetation indexes, LAI, and SPAD value explained 50.5-74.7% of the seasonal variation in soil respiration in the CK, WA, SA, and WASA plots during the 2-year experimental period. A model including the seasonal mean NDVI, DVI, EVI, PRI, and LAI explained 72.4% of the interseasonal and intertreatment variations in seasonal mean soil respiration in the different plots across the four different crop-growing seasons. Our study indicated the potential applicability of hyperspectral vegetation indexes, LAI, and SPAD value to the estimation of soil respiration at a regional scale.To investigate whether poly (ADP ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) is involved in chrysotile-induced DNA damage in pleural mesothelial cells (MeT-5A) and bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B), two PARP1-deficient cell lines were established. Efficiencies of RNA interference on PARP1 were detected by western blot and qPCR. Here, normal cells and PARP1-deficient cells were exposed to chrysotile, and DNA damage and DNA repair were detected by alkaline comet assay. All cells were treated with chrysotile at the indicated concentrations (5, 10, 20, and 40 μg/cm2) for 24 h and then the DNA repair capacity was observed for 12 and 24 h, respectively. The results showed that chrysotile caused DNA damage at an obvious dose-dependent manner in MeT-5A and BEAS-2B cells. In addition, MeT-5A cells had more persistent DNA damage than BEAS-2B. Compared to normal cells, the PARP1-deficient cells were more sensitive to DNA damage caused by chrysotile. In DNA repair experiments, all cell lines recovered from the damage over time. The results of relative repair percentage (RRP) of MeT-5A and BEAS-2B were higher than those of MeT-5A shPARP1 and BEAS-2B shPARP1 cells at all experimental concentrations (except 5 μg/cm2) at 12-h repair. However, RRP of BEAS-2B and BEAS-2B shPARP1 tended to be closer, and RRP of MeT-5A shPARP1 was still lower than that of MeT-5A at 24-h repair. All results suggest that PARP1 plays an important role in early repair of DNA damage in BEAS-2B and MeT-5A cells exposed to chrysotile.In this study, the novel mesoporous carbonized material (HSBE/C) was prepared from clay/carbon composite (SBE/C) treated with hydrofluoric acid (HF) for the first time, and was employed to efficiently adsorb bisphenol A (BPA) in water. Specifically, SBE/C was derived from the pyrolysis of spent bleaching earth (SBE), an industrial waste. HF removed SiO2 from SBE/C and increased the specific surface area of HSBE/C (from 100.21 to 183.56 m2/g), greatly providing more adsorption sites for enhanced BPA adsorption capacity. The Langmuir monolayer maximum adsorption capacity of HSBE/C (103.32 mg/g) was much higher than the commercial activated carbon (AC) (42.53 mg/g). The adsorption process by HSBE/C followed well with the Freundlich isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and also was endothermic (ΔH0 > 0) and spontaneous (ΔG0 less then 0). Based on the systematic characterization and factor experiment (temperature, dosage, initial pH, co-existing ions), BPA adsorption mechanism by HSBE/C likely included the hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interaction, and hydrophobic interaction. Moreover, there was no secondary pollution during the total adsorption process. Extraordinary, HSBE/C manifested stability by NaOH desorption regeneration. This study provides a new sight for application of waste-based materials as the promising adsorbents in the treatment of endocrine disruptors.All over the globe, the generation of industrial waste has been increased due to the increasing demand for modern civilisation. In the developing countries like India, it is growing vigorously which eventually increases the production of vehicles and results in the more number of waste tyres. Despite the dumping such hazardous waste in landfills, stockpiling, and burning, their feasible utilisation in the modification of soil and concrete can be a good alternative option for their disposal. This paper enlightens the published work carried out by various researchers to enhance the mechanical properties of clayey soil using various forms of waste tyres. The effects of different forms of waste tyres on consistency limits, compaction characteristics, strength characteristics, compressibility characteristics, permeability and California-bearing ratio of cohesive soils have been reviewed. The review results show that the use of waste tyre products in ground improvement can be an economical solution for the construction industries and optimistic future as its disposal option. Still, further investigations and more research studies are required to consolidate the remarks drawn by the past researchers for its utilisation in the construction of highway/railway embankments and other field applications.Date palm leaves (DPL) was extracted using acetone (ACE), ethanol (ETH), aqueous (AE), butanol (BUT), methanol (METH), isopropanol (ISO), and ethyl acetate (EHY ACT). The extracts were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy. The various solvent DPL extracts were screened for anticorrosion property against low carbon steel in 15 wt.% HCl solution at 25 °C. ACE, AE, and ETH DPL extracts are found to promote the corrosion of the low carbon steel while BUT, ISO, METH, and EHY ACT DPL extracts exhibit anticorrosion property. However, BUT DPL extract shows the best anticorrosion property with 400 ppm protecting the low carbon steel by 82%. Based on the results from the screening experiments, BUT extract was selected for a comprehensive corrosion inhibition study. Inhibition effectiveness of BUT DPL extract is found to increase with increasing concentration with 1000 ppm affording 97% protection at 25 °C. The inhibition performance increases up to 40 °C but slightly decreases as the temperature was raised to 50 °C and 60 °C.
