Activated Sludge Systems

This study quantified the kinetic differences in microbial communities isolated from completely mixed activated sludge (CMAS) systems that were operated either with or without an aerobic selector preceding the main reactor. A new respirometric method was employed that allowed the determination of biodegradation kinetics from single oxygen consumption curves, thereby minimizing physiological changes to the examined communities during the assay. Results indicated that increased values for Ks and μmax for acetate, phenol, and 4-chlorophenol degradation were measured in the CMAS system operated with a selector. The biomass yields on acetate, phenol, and 4-chlorophenol were very similar in both systems. These findings indicate that the operation of CMAS systems with aerobic selectors may result in the selection for degrading populations with higher Ks and μmax values for both biogenic and xenobiotic organic compounds, and that substrate storage in the selector only partially contributes to increased substrate removal rates.

1. The oxygen consumption of normal and gill-less nymphs of the mayflies Baetis sp., Cloeon dipterum and Ephemera vulgata has been measured at various oxygen concentrations. 2. It has been found that over the complete range of oxygen concentrations studied, the tracheal gills do not aid oxygen consumption in Baetis sp. In Cloeon dipterum, at all oxygen concentrations tested, no gaseous exchange takes place through the gills; at low oxygen concentrations, however, the gills function as an accessory respiratory mechanism in ventilating the respiratory surface of the body and so aid oxygen consumption. In Ephemera Vulgata the gills aid oxygen consumption even at high oxygen concentrations. In this species the gills may function both as true respiratory organs and as a ventilating mechanism. 3. It is shown that the differences in gill function can be related to the oxygen content of the habitat of each species.

The constraints placed on diffusive gas exchange by the eggshell and the adaptive features of embryonic respiration and metabolism in large Laysan and black-footed albatross eggs (300 g) during prolonged incubation (65 days) were examined in naturally incubated eggs on Sand Island, Midway, in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. A low eggshell gas conductance and slow growth rate were associated with a relatively low oxygen consumption (MO2) throughout incubation. Just prior to internal pipping (IP) of the inner shell membrane and penetration of the air space, the MO2 (pre-IP MO2) was approximately 1,250 ml O2 (STPD).day-1 for both species, resulting in air cell O2 and CO2 tensions of 106 and 40 Torr, respectively. During the 4- to 5-day pipping-to-hatching interval, O2 uptake increases rapidly as pulmonary respiration is initiated. Hatchling O2 consumption averaged 3,700 ml O2 (STPD).day-1 or about three times the pre-IP MO2. Data support the hypothesis that embryonic metabolism among Procellariiformes is related to the extent to which the incubation period deviates from the expected value based on initial egg mass.

Electrocardiographic Abnormalities

Myocardial infarction was produced in dogs by ligature of the anterior descending coronary artery. Sarcosomes were isolated from normal and infarcted tissue. Oxygen consumption was followed polarographically and adenosine triphosphate was measured as glucose 6-phosphate. One group of animals received a continuous infusion of glucose for 12 hr; another group received "polarizing solution" (glucose-KCl-insulin). Sarcosomes from the first had a low oxygen consumption, no respiratory control, and no oxidative phosphorylation. In contrast, the administration of glucose-KCl-insulin solution maintained practically within normal limits these functional aspects of the sarcosomes. The reversal of electrocardiographic abnormalities by the administration of the polarizing solution coincided with improvement of such biochemical functions. Anesthesia and surgical handling did not appear to modify the behavior of the sarcosomes.
