Polysaccharide‐based artificial extracellular matrix: Preparation and characterization of three‐dimensional,macroporous chitosan,and heparin composite scaffold

Scaffold‐guided tissue engineering based on synthetic and natural occurring polymers has gained many interests in recent year. In this study, the development of a chitosan‐heparin artificial extracellular matrix (AECM) is reported. Three‐dimensional, macroporous composite AECMs composed of heparin (Hep) and chitosan (Chito) were prepared by an interpolyelectrolyte complex/lyophilization method. The Chito‐Hep composite AECMs were, respectively, crosslinked with glutaraldehyde, as well as cocrosslinked with N,N‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)‐N′‐ethyl carbodiimide (EDC/NHS) and N‐hydroxysuccinimide (NHS). The crosslinking reactions were examined by FT‐IR analysis. In physiological buffer solution (PBS), the EDC/NHS‐crosslinked Chito‐Hep composite AECM showed a relative lower water retention ratio than its glutaraldehyde‐crosslinked counterparts. The EDC/NHS‐crosslinked Chito‐Hep composite AECMs showed excellent biocompatibility, according to the results of the in vitro cytotoxic test. This result suggested that the EDC/NHS‐crosslinked Chito‐Hep composite AECMs might be a potential biomaterial for scaffold‐guided tissue engineering applications. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Stress in Dairy Farming and the Adoption of New Technology.

Previous studies have identified a number of different farm stressors and have reported gender and age differences in levels of stress. This study aimed to determine stress experienced by New Zealand dairy farmers, particularly in relation to adoption of new technology and its relationship to age and gender. Measures of farm stress and adoption of technology were completed by 985 dairy farmers. The highest levels of stress were reported for time pressures, machinery breakdown, weather, and government policies. Stress related to new technologies occurred rarely. Women reported more stress and higher levels of stress for understanding new technologies. There was also an increase in severity of stress with age related to new technologies. Overall, stress levels were moderate and may reflect favorable economic conditions. The findings suggest a need to tailor stress interventions to meet specific needs.

Using a weight-of-evidence approach for management of watersheds.

This research used a weight-of-evidence approach to evaluate sources of contaminants in a drinking water watershed that serves as part of the City of Boston's water supply. The approach incorporated land use analysis using GIS, sanitary surveys, traditional water quality monitoring and microbial source tracking (MST) tools. Case-study tributaries were selected based on elevated faecal coliform counts. Land use analysis and sanitary surveys were used to identify suspected microbial sources, including residential septic systems, agricultural animal operations, commercial/industrial operations and wildlife activity. Sampling sites were selected to hydrologically isolate potential contamination sources. Samples were collected seasonally over 1 year and analysed for traditional and MST parameters. Results demonstrated that both septic systems and a horse stable were contributing microbial loads in the first tributary. In the second tributary, septic systems from the townhouses were contributing microbial loads while a plant nursery was contributing organic matter. This evidence was used to evaluate best management practices to mitigate the contamination.

超低渗广谱油层保护技术在板深51区块的应用

板深51区块存在压力敏感地层，在非目的层井段存在大段高渗低压砂岩，而目的层又属于高压低渗地层，属于难采油气田。室内进行的砂床滤失量、砂床封堵带承压能力、岩心封堵带的承压能力及油气层保护效果实验表明，在超低渗钻井液中增加固相含量，能够提高超低渗透膜结构强度，提高地层承压能力，降低砂床侵入深度，增强保护油气层效果，而且有选择性地增加有用固相效果更佳。基于这一理论，研究成功了超低渗广谱屏蔽暂堵油层保护技术，并在板深51区块长22—15井和长23—17K井进行了试验应用。该技术的关键是依据地层特性确定复配暂堵剂。长22-15井和长23-17K井射孔后未经过压裂、酸化、排液处理，获自喷高产，尤其是长22-15井形成自喷油流，创油田单井试采产量最高记录。应用结果表明，超低渗广谱保护油气层钻井液技术封堵隔层的承压能力强，很大程度地提高了漏失层的承压能力和破裂压力，较好地解决了含多套压力层系长裸眼段钻井过程中发生的漏失、井喷、卡钻、油气层保护等技术难题。
