The effect of dissolved oxygen concentration on human secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) glycosylation by the insect cell-baculovirus expression system was investigated in a well-controlled bioreactor. Oligomannose-type N-linked glycans (i.e., Man2 to Man6 and Man3F) were present in SEAP produced by Spodoptera frusiperda Sf-9 (Sf-9) and Trichoplusia ni BTI-Tn-5B1-4 (Tn-5B1-4) insect cell lines. The relative amounts of the most highly processed glycans (i.e., Man3F and Man2 in the SEAP from Sf-9 and Tn-5B1-4 cells, respectively) were significantly higher at 50% of air saturation than at either 10% or 190% of air saturation. That is, glycan processing was inhibited at both low and high dissolved oxygen concentrations.

Ethylene glycol (EG) is a contaminant in the wastewater of airports because it is commonly used in aircraft deicing fluids during the cold season in northern regions. Ethylene glycol by itself has relatively low toxicity to mammals and aquatic organisms, but it can lead to a substantial increase in chemical and biological oxygen demands. The contamination of water with EG facilitates the rapid growth of microbial biofilms, which decreases the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water and negatively affects overall biodiversity.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the less understood process of natural organohalogen formation in dark conditions (aphotic) compared to more well-known light-driven (photochemical) processes, particularly focusing on two types of dissolved organic matter (DOM) from wetland plants.
  • It finds that the invasive plant Spartina alterniflora (SA-DOM) is more prone to photochemical halogenation due to its higher aromatic content, while Phragmites australis (PA-DOM) produces more natural organohalogens (NOHs) during dark reactions.
  • The research highlights the importance of dissolved oxygen levels and suggests that both photochemical and aphotic pathways contribute significantly to NOH formation, making them relevant under varying environmental conditions.

Variation in the diet composition and weight-length relationship of small characids in urbanized and forested streams.

The diet of indicator fish species plays a crucial role in assessing ecosystem health. This study evaluated streams with and without urban influences, focusing on abiotic parameters and the trophic ecology of Psalidodon fasciatus and Piabina argentea. Forested streams exhibited higher redox potential, dissolved oxygen, transparency, and depth, whereas urban streams had higher temperatures, greater widths, and increased levels of total dissolved solids, conductivity, total coliforms, and thermotolerant coliforms.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of plasma treated metal contaminated water, used for irrigation, on plant growth. Zinc (Zn) is a commonly used metal that can enter the environment through industrial processes. It may be released as particles into the atmosphere or discharged as wastewater into waterways or the ground.
