Objective: To investigate the role of mitochondrial pathway in the apoptosis of spermatogenic cells induced by inhalation of carbon disulfide in male rats.

Methods: Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats (clean grade) were divided into four groups according to their body weights: three CS(2) exposure groups (CS(2) concentrations: 50, 250, and 1250 mg/m(3)) and a control group. The rats in CS(2) exposure groups were exposed to CS(2) by static inhalation for 10 weeks (2 h/d, 5 d/w), while the rats in control group were exposed to air.

Objective: To investigate the effect of carbon disulfide (CS(2)) on the mitochondrial respiratory chain in testicular spermatogenic cells in male rats and to explore the possible mechanism of reproductive system damage caused by CS(2) in male rats.

Methods: Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats (clean grade) were randomly divided into four groups: three CS(2) exposure groups (CS(2) concentrations: 50, 250, and 1250 mg/m(3)) and a control group. The rats in CS(2) exposure groups were exposed to CS(2) by static inhalation for 10 weeks (2 h/d, 5 d/w), while the rats in control group were exposed to air.

By using light emitting diode (LED) to accurately modulate spectral energy distribution, and with fluorescent light as the control, this paper studied the effects of light quality on the seedlings growth and physiological characteristics of rice cultivars 'Wuyunjing 7' and 'Kangyou 63'. Light quality had significant effects on the seedlings growth, and there existed differences at different growth stages. Blue LED inhibited the height growth significantly, and increased the leaf soluble protein content of 'Wuyunjing 7' and the healthy index of the two rice cultivars at five-leaf stage.
