The potassium-feldspar from Inner Mogolia was decomposed after iron removing and hydrothermal processes successively. The results showed(Table 1) that the iron could be removed up to 98.56% after the treatment of 90℃ for 2 hours with 5.8mol/L density of HCL solution. It is seen from the Table 1that the content of iron significantly decreased while the content of SiO2, Al2O3, K2O increase. The treated sample was used to be decomposed by hydrothermal method in KOH solution. The results showed that the dissolution rate of SiO2 could be up to 64.73% after the hydrothermal treatment of 260 ℃ for 2 hours with 1.2 mol/L density of KOH(Fig 1).

The result showed that the changing of NRA,HPA and PODA was same in the period from the quick growth to blossom period in the different treamets. NAR and HPA was the highest in the quick growth period then cut down gradually,and PODA was just right contrary. The other side,it was obviously different to NRA, HPA and PODA in the different Potassium levels. NRA and HPA presented the highest enzyme activity in the trea- ment of K2O 22.5kg·ha-1 PODA in creased gradually with the increase of Potassium. PODA was the high- est in the treament of K2O 67.5kg·ha-1. But all of the Potassium treatments was higher than CK whatever NRA,HPA and PODA. Potassium may enhanced the primary stem yield and fiber percentage and lead to fiber yield rising.展开更多

The results of electro - ultra- filtration (EUF) analysis showed that the dark brown forest soils and the black soils in the northern part contained relatively high EUF-K, ranged from 12.5 to 15.7 mg per 100 g soil. In the black soils in the southern part, the EUF-K ranged from 8 to 9 mg per 100 g soil. The albic and aeolian sandy soils contained low EUF-K, ranged from 3.2 to 4.8 mg per 100 g soil. Field experiment in 1982 indicated that potassium fertilizer in soils with medium or low EUF-K, increased soybean yield by 17%-34%, and obviously prevented the epidemic of meadow moth and soybean mosaic virus. Application of potassium fertilizer increased the protein and total sugar content of the plants, promoted transportation of nutrients, speeded up the growth of the plants, improved the resistance of crops to adverse conditions. Application of potassium fertilizer resulted in early maturity of crops (4 - 7 days earlier than control), which had great significance for preventing crops from early frost damage. Hence, in order to keep nutrients balance in the soil and to increase soil fertility, potassium fertilizer or materials containing potassium must be applied to soils with medium and low EUF- K, such as black soils in the south part, ablic soils and aeolian sandy soils in Heilongjiang province.展开更多

The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, ratio of alkali-to-ore were studied, together with a discussion of the thermodynamics and macro kinetics. It is observed that the reaction temperature and reaction time have significant influence on the roasting reaction. The reaction mechanism changes greatly as the temperature varies. A two-stage roasting process is favorable for the roasting reaction, and a recovery ratio of 96.51% is obtained through this two-stage roasting method. The chromium residue yielded from this method is quite little, only one third of the product. Moreover, the component of Fe in the residue is as high as 54.28%. Therefore, it can be easily recovered to produce sponge iron, realizing zero-emission of chromium residue.展开更多

文摘Background Under K deficiency the uptake and distribution pattern in plant cells is mediated through different transport proteins and channels which were controlled by specific gene family.Therefore,a hydroponic experiment was conducted under control condition for testing the gene expression pattern of the K transporter under adequate and low K supply levels.After that,a 2-year field experiment was conducted to evaluate five selected cotton cultivars(four K-efficient cultivars,viz.,CIM-554,CYTO-124,FH-142,IUB-2013,and one K non-efficient,BH-212) screened from the initial hydroponics culture experiment and two levels of potassium(0 K_(2)O kg·ha^(-1) and 50 K_(2)O kg·ha^(-1)) were tested under reduced irrigation(50% available water content;50 AWC) and normal irrigation conditions(100% available water content;100 AWC).Result Results revealed that the transcript levels of GhHAK5aD in roots were significantly higher in K^(+) efficient cultivars than that in K^(+) non-efficient cultivars.The GhHAK5aD expression upon K^(+) deficiency was higher in roots but lower in shoots,indicating that GhHAK5aD could have a role in K^(+) uptake in roots,instead of transport of K^(+) from root to shoot.Similarly,under field conditions the cultivar FH-142 showed an increase of 22.3%,4.9%,2.4%,and 1.4% as compared with BH-212,IUB-2013,CYTO-124,and CIM-554,respectively,in seed cotton yield(SCY) with K application under reduced irrigation conditions.With applied K,the FH-142 showed an increase in net photosynthetic rate by 57.3% as compared with the rest of the cultivars under reduced irrigation over K control.However,the overall performance indicators of K-efficient cultivars like FH-142,CYTO-124,CIM-554,and IUB-2013 were better than BH-212(K in-efficient) under reduced irrigation conditions with applied K at 50 kg·ha^(-1).Fiber quality trait improved significantly with K application under water deficit.The increase in micronaire was 3.6%,4.7%,7.8%,3.4%,and 6.7% in BH-212,IUB-2013,CIM-554,CYTO-124,and FH-142,respectively,with K application at 50 kg·ha^(-1) over without K application under reduced irrigation conditions during the cotton growing season.Similarly,the cultivars FH-142 increased by 12% with K application under reduced irrigation as compared with other cultivars.The performance of K-efficient cultivars under reduced irrigation conditions was 30% better in SCY and quality traits with the application of K at 50 kg·ha^(-1) as compared with K-non-efficient cultivars.Similarly,water use efficiency(WUE)(40.1%) and potassium use efficiency(KUE)(20.2%) were also noted higher in case of FH-142 as compared with other cultivar with K application under reduced conditions.Conclusion Higher expression of GhHAK5aD gene was observed in K-efficient cultivars as compared with K-nonefficient cultivars in roots indicates that GhHAK5aD may be contributing to genotypic differences for K^(+) efficiency in cotton.K-efficient cotton cultivars can be used for the low-K environments and can also be recommended for general cultivars.

文摘OBJECTIVE To study the protective effect of potassium 2-(l-hydroxypentyl)-benzoate(PHPB) on hippocampal neurons,synapses and dystrophic axons in APP/PS1 mice.METHODS Ten-month-old male APP/PS1 transgenic mice and age-matched wild-type mice were randomly divided into three groups:wild-type group(WT Con group,n=10),APP/PS1 group(Tg Con group,n=10) and PHPB treated APP/PS1 group(PHPB group,n=10).PHPB group received 30 mg · kg-1 PHPB by oral gavage once daily for 3 months.WT Con group and Tg Con group received the same volume of water.Three months later,mice were sacrificed for biochemical and pathological testing such as transmission electron microscopy,Golgi staining and Western boltting analysis.RESULTS Under the transmission electron microscope,most hippocampal neurons and subcel ular organel es in WT Con group exhibited normal morphology.However,the degenerative changes were observed in Tg Con group such as nuclear fragmentation,mitochondrial swelling,ribosomes detachment and autophagic vacuoles accumulation.The hippocampal synapses number and the thickness of postsynaptic density(PSD) were significantly decreased in Tg Con group compared with the WT Con group(P<0.05).After PHPB treatment,the degenerative changes in APP/PS1 mice were alleviated to some extent.The synapse number has been elevated significantly(P<0.05) and the PSD has been thickened as well.Golgi staining showed that the spine density of secondary and tertiary apical dendritic branches was significantly decreased in CA1 and DG areas of Tg Con group(P<0.05).Sholl analysis revealed a decrease of dendritic complexity in Tg Con group compared with WT Con group(P<0.05).These abnormalities were alleviated to some extent after PHPB treatment.Western blotting study showed that the protein levels of synaptic marker PSD-95 and synaptophysin were significantly decreased in the hippocampus of Tg Con group(P<0.05).A significant increase of PSD-95(P<0.05) and a slight increase of SYP were observed after the PHPB treatment.Besides,we found a significant increase in the ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ in Tg Con group compared with the WT Con group(P<0.01) and the relevant improvement after PHPB treatment(P<0.05),which showed the regulatory effect of PHPB on autophagy impairment.CONCLUSION PHPB showed protective effects on hippocampal neurons,synapses and dystrophic axons in APP/PS1 mice,which might help explain its role on cognitive improvement in Alzheimer disease treatment.
文摘The effecf of potassium fertilizer on Nitrate Reductase Activity (NRA), Hydrogen Peroxide Activity (HPA),Peroxidase Activity (PODA) in the fiber flax was studied on campus of NEAU in 1995 and 1996. The result showed that the changing of NRA,HPA and PODA was same in the period from the quick growth to blossom period in the different treamets. NAR and HPA was the highest in the quick growth period then cut down gradually,and PODA was just right contrary. The other side,it was obviously different to NRA, HPA and PODA in the different Potassium levels. NRA and HPA presented the highest enzyme activity in the trea- ment of K2O 22.5kg·ha-1 PODA in creased gradually with the increase of Potassium. PODA was the high- est in the treament of K2O 67.5kg·ha-1. But all of the Potassium treatments was higher than CK whatever NRA,HPA and PODA. Potassium may enhanced the primary stem yield and fiber percentage and lead to fiber yield rising.
文摘The total potassium (K) content of soils in Heilongjiang was relatively high in general and the available potassium content in soils was quite different for different soil types. The results of electro - ultra- filtration (EUF) analysis showed that the dark brown forest soils and the black soils in the northern part contained relatively high EUF-K, ranged from 12.5 to 15.7 mg per 100 g soil. In the black soils in the southern part, the EUF-K ranged from 8 to 9 mg per 100 g soil. The albic and aeolian sandy soils contained low EUF-K, ranged from 3.2 to 4.8 mg per 100 g soil. Field experiment in 1982 indicated that potassium fertilizer in soils with medium or low EUF-K, increased soybean yield by 17%-34%, and obviously prevented the epidemic of meadow moth and soybean mosaic virus. Application of potassium fertilizer increased the protein and total sugar content of the plants, promoted transportation of nutrients, speeded up the growth of the plants, improved the resistance of crops to adverse conditions. Application of potassium fertilizer resulted in early maturity of crops (4 - 7 days earlier than control), which had great significance for preventing crops from early frost damage. Hence, in order to keep nutrients balance in the soil and to increase soil fertility, potassium fertilizer or materials containing potassium must be applied to soils with medium and low EUF- K, such as black soils in the south part, ablic soils and aeolian sandy soils in Heilongjiang province.

文摘Background Potassium(K)is an essential nutrient for plant growth and development.However,plant fertilization ignoring the soil K level is very likely to cause excessive fertilizer use,and further arouse a series of side effects.This study investigated the response of cotton growth to different soil K levels and the uptake of major nutrients,aiming to evaluate the appropriate K supply level for cotton growth.Using a random block design with 6 soil K levels,we conducted 18 micro-zones field experiments over two continuous years.The soil available K concentration of each treatment was K1(99.77-100.90 mg·kg^(-1)),K2(110.90-111.26 mg·kg^(-1)),K3(123.48-128.88 mg·kg^(-1)),K4(140.13-145.10 mg·kg^(-1)),K5(154.43-155.38 mg·kg^(-1)),and K6(165.77-168.75 mg·kg^(-1)).Cotton nutrient contents,soil nutrient contents,accumulation and distribution of dry matter in cotton were determined,and the relationships between K content in soil and plants and dry matter accumulation were analyzed.Results The soil K content had a significantly positive relationship with dry matter and K accumulation in cotton plants.There were significant differences in dry matter accumulation,single-plant seed cotton yield,mineral nutrient uptake and the proportion of K accumulation in reproductive organs among different soil K levels.The results showed that there was significant difference between K4 and lower K level treatments(K1 and K2),but no significant difference between K4 and higher K level treatments(K5 and K6)in dry matter,single-plant seed cotton yield,or accumulation,distribution and seed cotton production efficiency of N,P and K.Conclusion The soil K level of K4 was able to provide sufficient K for cotton growth in our experiment.Therefore,when the soil K level reached 140.13 mg·kg^(-1),further increasing the soil K concentration no longer had a significant positive effect on cotton growth.

文摘This work investigated the separation of potassium from sodium in alkaline solution using substituted phenol-based extractants.Superior potassium extraction was achieved with 4-tert-butyl-2-(α-methylbenzyl)phenol(t-BAMBP)than 4-sec-butyl-2-(α-methylbenzyl)phenol(BAMBP).The optimum conditions for the extraction were 1 mol/L t-BAMBP,3:1 volumetric phase ratio(O/A),and two extraction stages.After cross-current extraction,the extraction ratio of potassium reached 90.8%.After scrubbing with deionised water at phase ratio of 4:1 and scrubbing stage of 4,a sodium scrubbing efficiency of 88.2%was obtained.After stripping using 1 mol/L H_(2)SO_(4) at phase ratio of 3:1,the stripping efficiency of potassium reached 94.2%.The potassium/sodium(K/Na)concentration ratio increased 14.3 times from 0.15 in the feed solution to 2.3 in the stripping solution.The efficient separation of potassium from sodium in alkaline solution was achieved via solvent extraction with t-BAMBP.
文摘OBJECTIVE Stroke has become the top ten leading cause of death in China.Isch⁃emic stroke accounts for 85%of stroke cases,and insufficiency of cerebral blood supply caused by atherosclerosis is one of the important causes of ischemic stroke.Therefore,it is of posi⁃tive significance to study the molecular mecha⁃nism of stroke injury caused by hypoperfusion in the search for drug targets.Voltage-dependent potassium channels are a family of potassium channels widely expressed in the central ner⁃vous system.However,their roles in neurogene⁃sis after stroke insults have not been clearly illus⁃trated.The purpose of this experiment is to explore the expression changes of different sub⁃families of voltage-dependent potassium chan⁃nels after the occurrence of ischemic stroke and their influence on neuroregeneration,to study the molecular mechanism of stroke injury caused by hypoperfusion,and to find potential targets for drug therapy of ischemic stroke.METHODS C57BL/6 mice aged 7-8 weeks and C17.2 cells were used in vivo and in vitro in the experiment.The mice in the experimental group were suf⁃fered from bilateral common carotid artery occlu⁃sion(BCCO)for 1 h and reperfusion for 7 d.In the control group,bilateral carotid artery was dis⁃sected without occlusion.Behavioral assay of suspension test were performed to assess the motor deficits of the mice.In this assay,the time of the first drop(latency),the number of drops within one minute(frequency),and the final scores were recorded as the results of athletic ability.A lower score indicated more severe motor damage of the mice.TTC staining was used to observe the cerebral infarction areas caused by ligation of bilateral common carotid arteries.After seven days,mice were sacrificed and brain tissue protein samples were collected for real-time quantitative PCR(RT-PCR)and Western blotting test to detect the changes of potassium channel subfamily expression levels in different brain regions.Neuronal injuries in all brain regions were detected using Nissl staining methods 7 d following model establishment.To detect the effects and the underlying mechanism of the related potassium channel on neurogene⁃sis,recombinant plasmids of the potassium chan⁃nels were transfected in cultured C17.2 neural stem cells.Afterwards,oxygen glucose depriva⁃tion experiments were performed.RESULTS Behavioral tests showed that BCCO can cause impaired motor performance.TTC staining showed that cerebral infarction existed in the stri⁃atum region,and the motor function decline caused by the injury in this region was consistent with the behavioral experiment results which veri⁃fied the effectiveness of our surgical operation.Nissl staining revealed a large amount of neuronal cell necrosis in the cortex and striatum regions,and dense neuronal cells in the lateral ventricular limbic region,suggesting that neurogenesis may have occurred in this region.The results of real-time quantitative RT-PCR showed that among the detected potassium channels distributed in the measured nervous system,the expression of voltage-dependent potassium channel Kv4.2 decreased significantly in all brain regions after stroke,suggesting that it may be involved in the pathological process of stroke.Immunohisto⁃chemical staining showed that there was neuro⁃genesis in the subgranular zone(SGZ)and sub⁃ventricular zone(SVZ)of the mice,and Kv4.2 expression was significantly changed in the regions,suggesting that it may be involved in the regulation of neuro regeneration after stroke.The transfected Kv4.2 plasmid enhanced the dif⁃ferentiation of the C17.2 neural stem cells to neu⁃rons and astrocytes under normoxia and the oxy⁃gen-glucose deprivation,suggesting that Kv4.2 may induce the differentiation of neural stem cells after stroke.Kv4.2 could induce the neural stem cells to differentiate into neurons in vitro and in vivo,and Western blotting assay showed that Kv4.2 could up-regulate the expression level of ERK1/2,p-ERK1/2,p-STAT3,NGF,p-TtkA,and BDNF.Moreover,the calcium ions and CAMKⅡwas also increased by Kv4.2 in vitro.CONCLUSION BCCO insults can induce the expressions of the potassium channels in the brains,among which the expression of Kv4.2 is down-regulated in the cerebral cortex,hippocam⁃pus and striatum.In vitro experiments confirmed that Kv4.2 can induce the differentiation of C17.2 neural stem cells into neurons and astrocytes under the condition of normoxia and oxygen-glucose deprivation.We concluded that Kv4.2 possibly promoted neurogenesis through ERK1/2/STAT3,NGF/TrkA,and Ca2+/CAMKⅡsignal pathways after stroke.Regulating the physiologi⁃cal functions of Kv4.2 channel might contribute to the rehabilitation of neuronal damage after stroke.

文摘The oxidizing roasting of carbon ferrochrome in the presence of potassium carbonate and air was investigated. The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, ratio of alkali-to-ore were studied, together with a discussion of the thermodynamics and macro kinetics. It is observed that the reaction temperature and reaction time have significant influence on the roasting reaction. The reaction mechanism changes greatly as the temperature varies. A two-stage roasting process is favorable for the roasting reaction, and a recovery ratio of 96.51% is obtained through this two-stage roasting method. The chromium residue yielded from this method is quite little, only one third of the product. Moreover, the component of Fe in the residue is as high as 54.28%. Therefore, it can be easily recovered to produce sponge iron, realizing zero-emission of chromium residue.
