Abstract:
AbstractThe studies on quartz silt surface microstructures using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed in Brunic Arenosol and Gleyic Ortsteinic Podzol, as major components of soil cover of the lower supra-flood terrace of the Słupia River, N Poland. Brunic Arenosols have developed from coarse- and medium-grained fluvioglacial sands, whereas Podzols from aeolian sands of mid-Holocene age, which in some places were covered with younger aeolian deposits. A group of at least 100 randomly selected grains from each soil horizon have been analyzed. The grains were classified into one of the following groups: fresh (type A), grains with the features of chemical weathering (type B), grains coated with scaly-grain incrustations (type C), grains coated with bulbous incrustations (type D), and cracked grains (type E). Parent materials of the investigated soils did not differ significantly in terms of contribution of grain types and type C predominated in both soils. Significant differences were noted in soil solums. Grains covered by scaly-grained incrustations predominated in Brunic Arenosol, which constituted 62–89%. In the profile of Gleyic Ortsteinic Podzol grains type B predominated in AE and E horizons (65–82%), whereas in the remaining horizons grains type C (54–77%).

Abstract:
Soil erosion in five Rural Municipalities of west-central Saskatchewan was assessed using cesium-137 as an indicator of soil redistribution. Native, noneroded soils across the study area were sampled to determine a baseline value for cesium-137 (2877 Bq m−2), which was used to predict the erosion of cultivated soils since the early 1960s. Soil redistribution estimates were calculated for idealized positions (upper, middle, lower) on medium-textured cultivated hillslopes, and for the total erosional portion of the hillslopes. Mean hillslope soil erosion rates were 23 ± 8 t ha−1 yr−1 for slopes with 0–3% gradient, 27 ± 9 t ha−1 yr−1 for 3–10% slopes, and 48 ± 16 t ha−1 yr−1 for 10–24% slopes, representing a soil removal of 3.8 cm, 4.4 cm, and 7.8 cm, respectively, since 1960. These soil losses represented between 27 and 67% of the topsoil and between 8 and 35% of the solum currently present within the eroding upslope areas. A significant positive correlation existed between the thickness of soil horizons and solums, and the rate of soil erosion on the upper and middle slope positions. The greatest erosion rates were determined for the upper slope positions, probably because of a dominance of wind and tillage erosion within the area. Soil erosion rates within slope classes decreased with increasing slope length, particularly on 10–24% slopes. Erosion by overland flow was considered to be of minor importance, especially on level landscapes (0–3% gradient) where erosion averaged 23 ± 8 t ha−1 yr−1. Erosion rates ranging between 23 and 48 t ha−1 y−1 occurred over approximately 2/3 of the cultivated study area. High rates of soil erosion over such a large portion of the landscape are alarming, considering that the accepted tolerable soil loss is 11.2–4.5 t ha−1 yr−1.

Abstract:
Abstract We conducted comparative studies on soil organic matter stocks and indices of the soil’s ecochemical state under Empetro nigri-Pinetum (En-P) and Vaccinio uliginosi-Betuletum pubescentis (Vu-Bp) in the Słowiński National Park. The investigated plant communities are associated with Arenosols that developed from eolian sands and are exposed to high groundwater levels. The presence of fossil Histosol at a depth of 75 cm in the Vu-Bp stand, which lies below the current groundwater level, is the factor that sets both stands apart. The fossil soil strongly differs from Arenosol in terms of its chemical composition. A high abundance of nutrients in bioavailable forms in the soil is one of the reasons for natural renewal of downy birch in the stand, which presence in turn affects the turnover of elements and the properties of Arenosol. The results of our studies confirm the existence of strong feedback between the soil and plant communities. Soils under the mixed pine-birch Vu-Bp stand are characterized by smaller stocks of organic matter and total organic carbon (TOC) contained in the ectohumus as compared to the soils under the pure pine En-P stand. The opposite is found in the humic horizon. Additionally, in the Vu-Bp stand we observed greater accumulation of total nitrogen (TN) in ectohumus, which is reflected in lower TOC:TN ratios. The contents of TN and TOC:TN ratios in humic horizons were similar in both stands. The soils under En-P were more strongly acidified, especially in O-horizons. Mineral horizons in both stands were characterized by a very small sorptive capacity, which increased in ectohumus and fossil soil. Significant differences between the stands were observed in the ionic composition of sorptive complexes. The soils under Vu-Bp stand were more strongly saturated with basic cations, predominantly calcium. In soil solums of both stands, we observed a deficit of bioavailable potassium and magnesium, which was partially compensated by significant amounts of these components in ectohumus and fossil soil in the Vu-Bp stand. Despite a strongly acidic pH, molar Ca:Al ratios suggest that there are no phytotoxic effects due to free aluminium in ectohumus, while they are unlikely in mineral horizons. The risk of phytotoxic effects is reduced by the influx of calcium from groundwater.

Abstract:
AbstractFlexing the knee to isolate the single joint soleus from the biarticular gastrocnemius is a strategy for investigating individual plantarflexor’s post activation potentiation (PAP). We investigated the implications of testing plantarflexor PAP at different knee angles and provided indirect quantification of the contribution of gastrocnemius potentiation to the overall plantarflexor enhancements post conditioning. Plantarflexor supramaximal twitches were measured in ten male power athletes before and after a maximal isometric plantarflexion (MVIC) at both flexed and extended knee angles. Mean torque and soleus (SOLRMS) and medial gastrocnemius (MGRMS) activity were measured during the MVIC. The mean torque and MGRMS of the MVIC were lower (by 33.9 and 42.4%, respectively) in the flexed compared to the extended position, with no significant difference in SOLRMS. After the MVIC, twitch peak torque (PT) and the rate of torque development (RTR) potentiated significantly more (by 17.4 and 14.7% respectively) in the extended as compared to the flexed knee position, but only immediately (5 s) after the MVIC. No significant differences were found in the twitch rate of torque development (RTD) potentiation between positions. It was concluded that knee joint configuration should be taken into consideration when comparing studies of plantarflexor PAP. Furthermore, results reflect a rather brief contribution of the gastrocnemius potentiation to the overall plantarflexor twitch enhancements.

Abstract:
Cysticercosis is a disease caused by cysticercus cellulosae, a larval form of tapeworm, Taenia solium. Solitary muscular involvement is a rare and often presents diagnostic challenges due to unusual clinical presentation. Conventionally these conditions are diagnosed by histopathology or MR imaging and treated by surgical excision followed by antihelminthetic medication. We reported 2 cases of solitary intramuscular cysticercosis (biceps brachii and soleus muscle) without any systemic and neurological manifestations, accurately diagnosed by ultrasonogrphy and successfully treated conservatively with antihelminthetics and steroids.

Abstract:
AIM: The limnological characteristics of three different inlets water of the constructed wetland were compared in terms of concentration data and loading rate data and evaluated the removal efficiencies of nutrients, solids, BOD5, chlorophyll-a and thermotolerant coliforms (TC) by the treatment system; METHODS: The constructed wetland, measuring 82.8 m² and with detention time of 1 hour and 58 minutes in the rainy season and 2 hours and 42 minutes in the dry one, was provided with four species, Cyperus giganteus Vahl, Typha domingensis Pers., Pontederia cordata L. e Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms. The sampling sites evaluated in the dry (D) and rainy (R) seasons were: inlet water from aquaculture farm = IA; inlet channel of rainwater runoff = IR; inlet from UASB wastewater = IB; outlet wetland = OUT. The conductivity, pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, alkalinity, BOD5, total soluble and dissolved solids, nitrogen, phosphorus, chlorophyll-a and TC were analyzed. Multivariate analyses, such as Cluster and Principal Components Analysis (PCA), were carried out to group sampling sites with similar limnological characteristics; RESULTS: In the PCA with the concentration data was retained 90.52% variability of data, correlating the inlet IB with high concentrations of conductivity, alkalinity, pH, TC, nutrients and solids. Regarding loading rate data, the PCA was retained 80.9% of the data's total variability and correlated the sampling sites IA D, IA R and OUT R with higher BOD5, chlorophyll-a, TDS, nitrate, nitrite, total-P, temperature, oxygen and water flow. The highest removal efficiencies rates occurred in the dry season, mainly in concentration, with 78% of ammonia, 95.5% of SRP, 94.9% of TSS and 99.9% of TC; CONCLUSIONS: The wetland was highly efficacious in the removal of nutrients, solids, BOD5, chlorophyll-a and TC, mainly during the dry season. The system restructuring to increase the detention time during the rainy season and a pre-treatment of UASB wastewater, can increase the retention of nutrients and solids by wetland.

Abstract:
Dans les études sur le devenir et les impacts de pollutions métalliques dans les sols l'influence de leur usage est encore mal connue. Cette influence a été examinée ici à travers une étude détaillée de comportements de trois métaux polluants, présentant des mobilités différentes: Zn, Cd, et Pb. Cette étude a été menée à la fois dans des horizons de surface d'une petite région affectée par des retombées de poussières métallifères émises par l'industrie métallurgique, ainsi que dans un site comportant deux sols agricoles gérés de manière contrastée. Il s'agit d'un sol sous prairie permanente (PP) et un sol cultivé (CA), situés à une même distance de la source d'émission et développés dans des conditions pédogenétiques semblables. L'objectif principal de ce travail était de quantifier les parts endogènes et exogènes des ETM dans les sols, leurs distributions dans les horizons et dans les compartiments pédologiques (microstructures, agrégats, constituants) et d'identifier les principaux vecteurs d'incorporation. Cette étude a fait appel à des analyses de teneurs totales en éléments (C. organique, Fe, Zn, Pb, Cd,) des études macro- et micromorphologiques, des extractions cinétiques à l'EDTA et des études de la composition isotopique. Un deuxième objectif était de hiérarchiser le rôle des paramètres révélateurs de l'usage des sols sur la distribution et la mobilité des ETM. Ce travail montre que, 40 ans après l'arrêt de l'activité industrielle, la distribution actuelle des teneurs en métaux dans les horizons de surface ne reflète pas celle de retombées atmosphériques attendus selon un modèle simple de distribution en fonction de la distance à la source et des vents dominants. Les teneurs en Zn, Pb et Cd dans les premier 30 cm des sols varient selon l'usage des sols et notamment en fonction du pH, du potentiel redox, de la texture ou encore de l'activité biologique. Ainsi, les horizons de surface de sols acides en forêt auraient perdu plus de 80% du Zn retombé, contre environ 60% de l'horizon A d'un sol sous prairie permanente, suite à la bioturbation lombricienne, et "seulement " 40% pour l'horizon L d'un sol cultivé. Une typologie de secteurs de la zone impactée, pertinente par rapport à la migration de polluants a été proposée à partir de cartographies des rapports Zn/Pb et Cd/Pb. A l'échelle du solum et des horizons, un siècle de pratiques agricoles distinctes a conduit à des phénoformes différents. En particulier, l'activité biologique différente dans les sols PP et CA a modifié le cycle bio-géochimique des métaux et induit des différences dans leurs distributions et mobilité. Les 2 sols présentent en effet des profils de teneurs totales en Zn, Pb et Cd contrastés, avec une rétention de la majeure partie des métaux exogènes dans l'horizon labouré en CA (entre 53% pour Zn et 92% pour Pb et Cd) et une incorporation nettement plus importante dans PP (40% du Zn seulement, 73% du Cd et 82% du Pb exogène sont aujourd'hui présent dans les 26 premiers cm). L'incorporation est significative jusqu'à 80 cm de profondeur sous prairie. A l'échelle des agrégats, l'activité biologique en PP conduit à l'occurrence de trois types de fractions impliquées dans la dynamique des métaux (agrégats de 50-100 μm, 2-20μm, et fraction <2μm), alors que pour CA, seules les fractions 2-20μm et <2μm semblent prioritairement impliquées dans leur rétention et extractabilité. L'analyse de la composition isotopique du Pb sur des échantillons de sol et des extraits EDTA, est un outil performant pour détailler la nature et l'incorporation du Pb exogène. Par cette technique analytique le Plomb exogène sous prairie se retrouve jusqu'à la base du profil et jusqu'à 60cm de profondeur dans le sol sous culture. Cette approche a permis de valider l'ensemble des résultats obtenus à partir des teneurs totales en métaux. Elle souligne la nécessité d'une prise en compte des paramètres pédologiques afin de garantir la représentativité des échantillons étudiés et autoriser une évaluation plus pertinente des risques environnementaux qu'à partir des seules teneurs totales en métaux.

Abstract:
Nanofiltration (NF) membranes have been applied successfully for the removal of inorganic and organic pollutants, including micropollutants, from drinking water for the past two decades. However, a complete and quantitative understanding of NF removal mechanisms has yet to be achieved. Quantifying the factors governing solute transport and retention by NF is necessary in order to achieve higher treatment efficiency at a lower cost. The aim of this research was to contribute to the current state of the knowledge of the mechanisms of solute retention and transport by NF membranes. The focus was on evaluating the contribution of solute-solute interactions and solute-membrane interactions on solute removal and transport mechanisms. To the knowledge of the author, at the start of this research there was a lack of understanding of the simultaneous impacts of both interactions on the performance of NF membranes, which renders this research novel. To highlight challenges faced by modern membrane plants and identify inorganic and organic pollutants of interest, a study of water quality in Scotland was carried out. Experiments were performed in dead-end stirred cells using two commercial NF membranes, TFC-SR2 and TFC-SR3 provided by Koch, which were extensively characterized. Radiolabeled Endosulfan (ES, 10 μg/L), manganese (5-1,500 mg/L) and Humic Acids (HA, 5-250 mgC/L) were spiked in synthetic water with background electrolyte (1 mM NaHCO3 and 20 mM NaCl). Calcium (Ca, 2.5 mM) was employed in fouling experiments. The influence of the complexation of solutes with HA on solute retention by NF was for the first time quantified for the solute concentrations employed in this study. It was found that manganese retention was influenced by membrane pore size and charge (solute-membrane interactions) and solute speciation (solute-solute interactions). Complexation of manganese and HA (solute-solute interactions) occurred at alkaline conditions but did not enhance manganese retention. At high pH manganese precipitated as solid MnCO3 and these precipitates achieved high retention (99%), even without the presence of HA. ES retention by NF membrane was controlled by size exclusion (solute-membrane interactions). For the tighter TFC-SR3, whose pore size are smaller than the size of ES, ES retention increased in the presence of HA, while for the looser TFC-SR2, whose pores are bigger than ES diameter, ES retention decreased in the presence of HA. For TFC-SR3 increase of ES retention in the presence of HA was due to size exclusion (solute-membrane interactions) and formation of ES-HA complexes (solute-solute interactions). For TFC-SR2 HA-membrane interactions were dominant with respect to solute-solute interactions, increasing membrane molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) and in turn passage of ES. The influence of pressure (5-15 bar) on ES retention in the presence of HA was systematically investigated. Results showed that ES transport through TFC-SR2 and TFC-SR3 was dominated by convection. For the tighter TFC-SR3 lower permeate flux was responsible for the increase of retention with pressure, while for the looser TFC-SR2 higher permeate flux increased concentration polarisation, decreasing retention with pressure. The presence of HA lowered the permeate flux, resulting in a less pronounced variation of retention with pressure for TFC-SR2 and in constant retention for TFC-SR3. The impact of manganese scaling on the performance of NF membranes was investigated at neutral pH. The effects of inorganic precipitates on flux and solute retention by NF have been so far scarcely studied and the impact of inorganic scaling on micropollutant retention by NF is unknown. Findings from this research indicated that manganese deposits did not foul the membranes but on the contrary enhanced their flux and prevented fouling by HA and Ca. The retention of ES, manganese and HA by membranes through which manganese was previously filtered was found to decrease with respect to solute retention by virgin membranes. Manganese filtration was shown to increase membrane MWCO and hydrophilicity. It was proposed that manganese-membrane interactions caused swelling of the membrane active layer by increasing the membrane free volume. The findings of this research indicated the importance of investigating simultaneously the impacts of solute-solute interactions and solute-membrane interactions to understand and explain transport and removal mechanisms of organic and inorganic contaminants by NF.

Abstract:
The thesis deals with the numerical modeling of nonreactive and nonlinearly sorbing solutes in groundwater and analysis of the effect of heterogeneity resulting from spatial variation of physical and chemical parameters on the transport of solutes. For this purpose, a hy­brid flux corrected transport (FCT) and central difference method based on operator-split approach is developed for advection-dispersion solute transport equation. The advective transport is solved using the FCT technique, while the dispersive transport is solved using a conventional, fully implicit, finite difference scheme. Three FCT methods are developed and extension to multidimensional cases are discussed. The FCT models developed are anlaysed using test problems possessing analyt­ical solutions for one and two dimensional cases, while analysing advection and dispersion dominated transport situations. Different initial and boundary conditions, which mimic the laboratory and field situations are analysed in order to study numerical dispersion, peak cliping and grid orientation. The developed models are tested to study their relative merits and weaknesses for various grid Peclet and Courant numbers. It is observed from the one dimensional results that all the FCT models perform well for continuous solute sources under varying degrees of Courant number restriction. For sharp solute pulses FCT1 and FCT3 methods fail to simulate the fronts for advection dominated situations even for mod­erate Courant numbers. All the FCT models can be extended to multidimensions using a dimensional-split approach while FCT3 can be made fully multidimensional. It is observed that a dimensional-split approach allows use of higher Courant numbers while tracking the fronts accurately for the cases studied. The capability of the FCT2 model is demonstrated in handling situations where the flow is not aligned along the grid direction. It is observed that FCT2 method is devoid of grid orientation error, which is a common problem for many numerical methods based on Cartesian co-ordinate system. The hybrid FCT2 numerical model which is observed to perform better among the three FCT models is extended to model transport of sorbing solutes. The present study analyses the case of nonlinear sorption with a view to extend the model for any reactive transport situation wherein the chemical reactions are nonlinear in nature. A two step approach is adopted in the present study for coupling the partial differential equation gov­erning the transport and the nonlinear algebraic equation governing the equilibrium sorp­tion. The suitability of explicit-implicit (EI - form) formulation for obtaining accurate solution coupling the transport equation with the nonlinear algebraic equation solved using a Newton-Raphson method is demonstrated. The performance of the numerical model is tested for a range of Peclet numbers for modelling self-sharpening and self-smearing con­centration profiles resulting from nonlinear sorption. It is observed that FCT2 model based on this formulation simulates the fronts quite accurately for both advection and dispersion dominated situations. The delay in the solute mobility and additional dispersion are anal­ysed varying the statistical parameters characterising the heterogeneity namely, correlation scale and variance during the transport of solutes and comparisons are drawn with invariant, cases. The impact of dispersion during the heterogeneous transport is discussed.

Abstract:
A modification in an existing water uptake and solute transport numerical model was implemented in order to allow the model to simulate solute uptake by the roots. The convection-dispersion equation (CDE) was solved numerically, using a complete implicit scheme, considering a transient state for water and solute fluxes and a soil solute concentration dependent boundary for the uptake at the root surface, based on the Michaelis- Menten (MM) equation. Additionally, a linear approximation was developed for the MM equation such that the CDE has a linear and a non-linear solution. A radial geometry was assumed, considering a single root with its surface acting as the uptake boundary and the outer boundary being the half distance between neighboring roots, a function of root density. The proposed solute transport model includes active and passive solute uptake and predicts solute concentration as a function of time and distance from the root surface. It also estimates the relative transpiration of the plant, on its turn directly affecting water and solute uptake and related to water and osmotic stress status of the plant. Performed simulations show that the linear and non-linear solutions result in significantly different solute uptake predictions when the soil solute concentration is below a limiting value (Clim). This reduction in uptake at low concentrations may result in a further reduction in the relative transpiration. The contributions of active and passive uptake vary with parameters related to the ion species, the plant, the atmosphere and the soil hydraulic properties. The model showed a good agreement with an analytical model that uses a linear concentration dependent equation as boundary condition for uptake at the root surface. The advantage of the numerical model is it allows simulation of transient solute and water uptake and, therefore, can be used in a wider range of situations. Simulation with different scenarios and comparison with experimental results are needed to verify model performance and possibly suggest improvements.<br>Uma modificação em um modelo existente de extração de água e transporte de solutos foi realizada com o objetivo de incluir nele a possibilidade de simular a extração de soluto pelas raízes. Uma solução numérica para a equação de convecção-dispersão (ECD), que utiliza um esquema de resolução completamente implícito, foi elaborada e considera o fluxo transiente de água e solutos com uma condição de contorno à superfície da raiz de extração de soluto dependente de sua concentração no solo, baseada na equação de Michaelis- Menten (MM). Uma aproximação linear para a equação de MM foi implementada de tal forma que a ECD tem uma solução linear e outra não-linear. O modelo considera uma raiz singular com geometria radial sendo sua superfície a condição de contorno (limite) de extração e sendo o limite extremo a meia-distância entre raízes vizinhas, função da densidade radicular. O modelo de transporte de soluto proposto inclui extração de soluto ativa e passiva e prediz a concentração de soluto como uma função do tempo e da distância à superfície da raiz, além de estimar a transpiração relativa da planta, que por sua vez afeta a extração de água e solutos e é relacionado com a condição de estresse da planta. Simulações mostram que as soluções linear e não-linear resultam em predições de extração de solutos significativamente diferentes quando a concentração de solutos no solo está abaixo de um valor limitante (Clim). A redução da extração em baixas concentrações pode resultar em uma redução adicional na transpiração relativa. As contribuições ativa e passiva da extração de solutos variam com parâmetros relacionados à espécie de íon, à planta, à atmosfera e às propriedades hidráulicas do solo. O modelo apresentou uma boa concordância com um modelo analítico que aplica uma condição de contorno linear, à superfície da raiz, de extração de solutos dependente da concentração no solo. A vantagem do modelo numérico sobre o analítico é que ele permite simular fluxos transientes de água e solutos, sendo, portanto, possível simular uma maior gama de situações. Se faz necessário simulações com diferentes cenários e comparações com dados experimentais para se verificar a performance do modelo e, possivelmente, sugerir melhorias.

Abstract:
L'extraction de biomolécules à partir de ressources renouvelables devient l'un des thèmes clés dans les domaines de la biotechnologie, de la cosmétologie et de la pharmacie. Pour minimiser la consommation de solvant organique et augmenter l'efficacité, l'extraction avec des mélanges eau/alcool semble être une approche prometteuse. De plus, des étapes supplémentaires de purification et de concentration sont généralement nécessaires pour enrichir le milieu avec les molécules cibles. La nanofiltration (NF) est une technique de séparation idéale et durable pour de telles opérations car elle est propre, sobre et sûre. Il existe néanmoins peu de littérature concernant la NF dans ces mélanges eau/éthanol. Cette étude vise à mieux comprendre les mécanismes de transfert qui régissent la sélectivité dans ces milieux. Dans un premier temps une étude fondamentale est réalisée sur la NF dans des mélanges eau/ alcool seuls ou en présence de solutés neutres et/ou chargés. Les résultats obtenus montrent que lorsque la teneur en alcool augmente, la membrane gonfle, le rayon des pores augmente mais la résistance intrinsèque reste constante. Les mécanismes de transfert bien connus en milieux aqueux (exclusion stérique, interaction électrostatique, interaction diélectique) et en milieux organiques (interactions hydrophobes, affinité soluté-membrane-solvant) sont tous présents dans des mélanges eau/alcool mais leur intensité relative semble être différente.

To minimize the organic solvent consumption, as well as to increase the efficiency, extraction by water/alcohol mixtures appears to be a promising approach. Moreover, additional purification and concentration steps are generally required to enrich the medium with the target molecules. Nanofiltration is a de-facto separation technique for such operations because it is clean, sober and safe. Unfortunately, there is few literature on the transfer of water/ethanol mixtures regarding nanofiltration. This study aims to better understand the transfer mechanisms that govern selectivity in these media. At the first step, a fundamental study is realized on nanofiltration in water/alcohol mixtures alone or with the presence of neutral or charged solutes. The obtained results show that when the alcohol content increases, the membrane is swelling, the pore radius increases but the intrinsic resistance is still constant. The well-known transfer mechanisms in aqueous media (steric exclusion, electric interaction, dielectric interaction) and in organic media (hydrophobic interaction, affinity solute-membrane-solvent) are all present in the water/alcohol mixtures, but relative intensity appears to be different. Different models (Spiegler-Kedem &amp; Film, Hydrodynamics &amp; Film, Solution-Diffusion &amp; Film, Pore-Flow &amp; Film, Electric Steric and Dielectric Exclusion) were used to model the retentions and estimate the transfer parameters

Abstract:
Uma das caracterÃsticas fisiolÃgicas mais importantes das halÃfitas pertencentes ao gÃnero Atriplex à a enorme habilidade de acumular solutos orgÃnicos e inorgÃnicos com o intuito de se ajustar osmoticamente em condiÃÃes de elevada salinidade e deficiÃncia hÃdrica. Contudo estudos compreensivos sobre a contribuiÃÃo relativa desses solutos inorgÃnicos e orgÃnicos no ajustamento osmÃtico de folhas dessas halÃfitas ainda sÃo poucos explorados na literatura. Esse trabalho pretende pela primeira vez na literatura fazer um estudo detalhado, da participaÃÃo e da contribuiÃÃo relativa da maioria dos solutos orgÃnicos e inorgÃnicos no potencial osmÃtico de folhas de Atriplex nummularia, submetidas a concentraÃÃes crescentes de NaCl, ciclos sucessivos de seca e ao polietileno glicol (PEG). Para responder as questÃes acima mencionadas foram conduzidos trÃs grandes experimentos seqÃenciais. No primeiro experimento, mudas de Atriplex nummularia com quatro meses de idade, foram cultivadas em vasos de argila contendo como substrato areia, sendo irrigadas a cada dois dias com soluÃÃo contendo concentraÃÃes crescentes de NaCl (0, 100, 200, 300 e 400 mmol L-1) durante 120 dias. O experimento foi realizado em condiÃÃes de casa de vegetaÃÃo. No segundo experimento, mudas de A. nummularia, com idade de 18 meses foram transplantadas para recipientes de polietileno contendo 5.0 kg de vermiculita, em condiÃÃes de casa de vegetaÃÃo, onde foram submetidas aos seguintes tratamentos (Controle; seca; NaCl + seca; NaCl) por trÃs ciclos sucessivos de seca-reidrataÃÃo (3 semanas) seguido de uma recuperaÃÃo no final do Ãltimo ciclo (apÃs 48 h). No terceiro experimento, plÃntulas de A.nummularia, com idade de dois meses foram transplantadas para cultivo hidropÃnico em vasos plÃsticos com capacidade para 0,8 em sala de crescimento sob condiÃÃes controladas onde sofrerÃo um prÃ-condicionamento com ou sem NaCl por duas semanas. ApÃs foram submetidas aos seguintes tratamentos (controle; PEG; NaCl; NaCl + PEG). Em conclusÃo, os resultados da presente investigaÃÃo demonstram que as plantas de Atriplex nummularia foram capazes de manter o seu crescimento mesmo em condiÃÃes de alta salinidade, principalmente pela capacidade de manutenÃÃo de seu status hÃdrico. Os resultados tambÃm sugerem que a GB à o maior soluto orgÃnico envolvido com o ajustamento osmÃtico (AO) do citoplasma e que sua acumulaÃÃo parece ser uma resposta adaptativa ao estresse provocado pelo NaCl. Em adiÃÃo, o Ãons salinos Na+ e Cl- contribuÃram para a maioria do AO das folhas submetidas ao NaCl. O impacto relativo do K+ sobre o AO das folhas foi reduzido consideravelmente com o aumento da dose externa de NaCl. Os resultados evidenciam tambÃm que o prÃ-condicionamento com NaCl influenciou positivamente no crescimento de Atriplex nummularia, em condiÃÃes de seca, evidenciado pelo maior acÃmulo de massa seca e melhor status hÃdrico das folhas. Dentre os solutos inorgÃnicos analisados, o Na+ e o Cl- foram os que mais contribuÃram para a osmorregulaÃÃo das folhas em condiÃÃes de deficiÃncia hÃdrica. Enquanto, GB foi o soluto orgÃnico mostrou o maior percentual de contribuiÃÃo para o potencial osmÃtico. Entretanto os resultados mostraram que o prÃ-condicionamento das plÃntulas de Atriplex nummularia com NaCl nÃo foram capazes de atenuar os efeitos induzidos pelo PEG.

Abstract:
An understanding of solute-solute interactions is essential for aquatic systems as this can affect the fate and behaviour of micropollutants in the environment and engineered systems. Despite the importance of solute-solute interactions there is a general lack of understanding which may be attributed to the fact that many engineering models overlook solute-solute interactions and that the quantification of such interactions is inherently difficult. When solute-solute interactions are considered, they are often studied at unrepresentative concentrations and do not consider the influence of organic matter type or solution chemistry. Steroidal hormones, such as estradiol and estrone, were selected as model micropollutants as they are ubiquitous in the aquatic environment due to constant introduction of wastewater effluent, and can have implications for growth and development of organisms including impaired fertility and behavioural abnormalities. The purpose of this study was to develop a methodology to quantify solute-solute interactions at environmental concentrations, and to determine the implications of such interactions in membrane filtration. A solid-phase microextraction (SPME) technique was developed to quantify solutesolute interactions at environmental (low) concentrations. Using SPME, organic matter-water partition coefficients (log KOM) were measured for a range of steroidal hormones including estradiol, estrone, progesterone and testosterone with different organic matter types such as humic acid. The dominant mechanism of hormoneorganic matter interactions was identified as hydrogen bonding. In the case of estrone and progesterone the log KOM values were significantly influenced by organic matter type and concentration, as well as solution chemistry. No difference was observed for estradiol and testosterone due to generally weaker sorption to organic matter. Previous studies have indicated that the presence of organic matter can alter micropollutant retention in membrane filtration. Much of the current literature focuses on solute-membrane interactions, as the influence of solute-solute interactions are typically difficult to determine in membrane filtration. Therefore, hormone-organic matter interactions were studied to determine if this interaction had an influence on hormone removal by ultrafiltration (UF) using a range of molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) membranes. The results indicated increased retention of estrone in the presence of humic acid, while organic matter concentration and solution chemistry influenced retention by affecting solute-solute interactions. The findings of this study indicate the importance of solute-solute interactions in membrane filtration and experimental log KOM results were used to quantify the findings and elucidate the influences of 1) membrane sorption, 2) solute-solute interactions and 3) solute-foulant interactions. Further, the removal of steroidal hormones using a magnetic ion exchange (MIEX®) resin with a range of MWCO UF membranes was studied as such sorbents can be used to improve micropollutant removal in wastewater treatment. Greater removal with IX-UF was observed compared to UF alone and the main hormone removal mechanisms were sorption to MIEX® and solute-fouling interactions. The findings of this study indicate that it is indeed possible to quantify solute-solute interactions at environmental concentrations using SPME, with hydrogen bonding being the main mechanism of interaction for steroidal hormones and organic matter. Further, micropollutant retention by membrane filtration can be influenced by solutesolute interactions.

Abstract:
Ternary systems water — impermeable solute (“salts”) — permeable solute have been widely used in cryopreservation of biological cells where the permeable solute is the cryoprotective agent (CPA). The cell membrane is considered “leaky”’ to CPA so the osmotic process is described by a system of two coupled non-linear equations: the osmotic equation (1.1) that drives water against the gradient of total osmotic pressure of both solutes, and the diffusion equation (1.2), which drives the permeable solute towards its gradient across membrane. In case of the “classical” system one permeable solute + impermeable entities (“salts”), the third equation (Boyle-van’t Hoff law (1.3) that states the constant amount of the impermeable components inside the cell (3) is added: (1.1)dWdt=-LpRTYf-Y+Zf-Z(1.2)dXdt=PsAYf-Y(1.3)WZ=WisoZiso=W0Z0=WfZf=const where W is the cell water volume, t is the time, Lp is the hydraulic conductivity, R is the gas constant, T is the temperature, A is the surface area, Y and Z are the osmolalities of permeable and impermeable solutes respectively, X ≡ WY is the intracellular amount (“number of osmoles”) of the permeable solute, Ps is the solute membrane permeability. Subscript “iso” refers to the isosmotic values, “0” is the values at time zero, and “f” refers to the final (equilibrium, extracellular) values. The water permeability can be considered as LpRT.

Abstract:
Based on the experimental results of electrical conductivity and hydraulic permeability, a new constitutive model for relative diffusivity (D/Do) of solutes in gels and tissues was developed. This model could predict the functional relationship between solute diffusivity and tissue deformation. This model could also quantitatively predict the effect of solute size on solute diffusivity in tissues. This study is important for the understanding of nutritional transport in cartilaginous tissues. It is also useful for the prediction of nutrition levels in tissue constructs during growth.

Abstract:
Newfound attention has been given to solute transport in nanochannels. Because the electric double layer (EDL) thickness is comparable to characteristic channel dimensions, nanochannels have been used to separate ionic species with a constant charge-to-size ratio (i.e., electrophoretic mobility) that otherwise cannot be separated in electroosmotic or pressure-driven flow along microchannels. In nanochannels, the electrical fields within the EDL cause transverse ion distributions and thus yield charge-dependent mean ion speeds in the flow. Surface roughness is usually inevitable during microfabrication of microchannels or nanochannels. Surface roughness is usually inevitable during the fabrication of nanochannels. In the present study, we develop a numerical model to investigate the transport of charged solutes in nanochannels with hundreds of roughness-like structures. The model is based on continuum theory that couples Navier-Stokes equations for flows, Poisson-Boltzmann equation for electrical fields, and Nernst-Planck equation for solute transports. Different operating conditions are considered and the solute transport patterns in rough channels are compared with those in smooth channels. Results indicate that solutes move slower in rough nanochannels than in smooth ones for both pressure-driven and electroosmotic flows. Moreover, solute separation can be significantly improved by surface roughness under certain circumstances.

Abstract:
Hemodialysis (HD) remains the primary treatment modality for the management of renal failure patients. Hemodialysis membranes play an important role in renal replacement therapy (RRT). HD is an extracorporeal blood clean process where the major mass transfer mechanism is diffusion. This therapy is mainly effectual for low molecular weight (LMW) solutes (such as urea and creatinine) removal or clearance for which diffusive mass transfer is a swift process. There is an increase in the removal of middle molecular weight (MMW) solutes (such as β2-microglobulin) when high flux membranes are available. Hemodiafiltration (HDF) is a treatment where the convective mass transfer accolades with diffusive mass transfer to increase the solute clearance efficacy, specifically for MMW solutes. The convective mass transfer is reliant on the amount of fluid exchanged. Toxin removal efficiency of HDF significantly depends on the porosity, pore size, pore distribution and surface area of the membrane [1, 2]. Although newly developed high flux polysulfone membranes have high MMW solute clearance, the non-uniform pore size and pore distribution is the main contributors to the albumin loss. Previous studies by Huang et al.[3], showed that nanoporous alumina sheet membranes have uniform pore size (∼ 10nm), high hydraulic permeability, uniform pore distribution and excellent pore structure with uniform channels. It was predicted that these membranes would have high molecular removal capacity. Therefore, in this study, experiments were performed to generate the data of intrinsic membrane properties such as hydraulic permeability, sieving coefficient and solute diffusive permeability for the alumina tubular membranes. Results were also compared to current polyethersulfone (PES) dialysis membranes.

Full text
Abstract:
The physiological function of biological tissues and cells is critically dependent on the transport of various solutes, such as nutrients, cytokines, hormones, and waste products. Transport in such media may be significantly hindered by the porous solid matrix, which may impart anisotropic transport properties to the solutes. Furthermore, large deformations of soft tissues and cells may significantly alter these transport properties due to concomitant alterations in pore volume and structure. Another potential influence of the porous solid matrix is steric volume exclusion resulting from the ratio of solute size and pore size distribution. This steric effect implies that solute concentration inside a tissue or cell may be less than the concentration in a surrounding bath, and this limit on solubility may be exacerbated under finite deformation due to changes in pore volume. Finally, the osmotic pressurization of the interstitial fluid may deviate from ideal physico-chemical behavior and this deviation may be dependent on the state of strain in the solid matrix. Therefore, a finite element framework that can accommodate solid-solute momentum exchanges, strain-induced anisotropy in transport properties and solubility, and strain-dependent non-ideal osmotic response, can provide an important modeling tool in the biomechanics of soft tissues and cells.

Full text
Abstract:
Transport pathways play a key role in maintaining cellular metabolic activity in biological tissues. Efforts to maintain or enhance the transport of nutrients may prove beneficial to the maintenance of native or development of engineered tissue. Various studies have investigated the potential of dynamic mechanical loading to increase the uptake and desorption rates of solutes in articular cartilage [1, 2]. Recently, a novel concept has been theoretically suggested that such dynamic loading of porous deformable media may additionally yield higher steady state concentrations of solutes, beyond those achieved by passive diffusion [3]. The first experimental evidence that dynamic loading can significantly enhance solute uptake over passive diffusion was recently reported for a model system of dextran in agarose hydrogels [4]. The results of this experimental study [4] were interpreted in the context of the earlier theoretical predictions [3], though a direct validation of theory with experiments has not yet been attempted. Therefore, the current study focuses on directly validating the theoretical framework by independently measuring the mechanical and transport properties of agarose hydrogels and dextran solutions experimentally, and substituting these values into the theory to evaluate the predicted solute uptake. These predictions are then compared to the previously reported experimental measurements of uptake of dextran in agarose under dynamic loading [4], for several gel concentrations and solute molecular weights.

Abstract:
Biostabilization processes, based on desiccation, cooling or freezing, are surface-induced and thus are inevitably governed by scale-dependent kinetic constraints. During processing, these kinetic constraints induce heterogeneity (solute, and solvent concentration gradients, thermal gradients, and eventually, phase separation in the medium). During freezing, ice crystallization induces thermal (due to latent heat release), and concentration gradients (due to solute rejection) causing phase separation in the medium (i.e., formation of regions at different thermodynamic states). For example, during a typical cryopreservation application initially the bulk water freezes, increasing the concentration of the solutes in the rest of the unfrozen solution. Upon further cooling, the freeze-concentrated solution may also vitrify (or some constituents may crystallize), creating at least two distinct regions within the same medium with two distinct states.
