Murashige and Skoog's (MS) medium containing N03-N and NH4-N in the ratio 3-5:1 (total nitrogen 30-75 mM) with 1.0mg/l NAA and 0.2mg/l TDZ was most desirable for cell growth (MS-O medium). The growth showed 14-fold increase after 30 days of culture in this medium. A higher ratio of NH4-N to total nitrogen resulted in hinokitiol accumulation in the cells. When the cells were transferred to the modified MS-O medium with the ratio of N03-N:NH4-N changed to 1:2 (MS-PC medium), an increase of hinokitiol level was observed. Also feeding acetates to the medium enhanced hinokitiol accumula- tion considerably. The highest hinokitiol content of 422tg/g FW was obtained when the cells were cultured in MS-O medium supplemented with 4.3mM acetic acid. Introduction An irregular monoterpene hinokitiol (B-thujaplicin) is widely present in the heartwood of the families Cupressaceae1). Hinokitiol has antimicrobial properties, and recently it has been indicated that hinokitiol suppresses ethylene synthesis and respiration of some fruits and vegetables.

  • Comparison of Biogenic Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Broad Leaved and Coniferous Trees in Turkey
    Environmental Impact II 647 Comparison of biogenic volatile organic compound emissions from broad leaved and coniferous trees in Turkey Y. M. Aydin1, B. Yaman1, H. Koca1, H. Altiok1, Y. Dumanoglu1, M. Kara1, A. Bayram1, D. Tolunay2, M. Odabasi1 & T. Elbir1 1Department of Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Dokuz Eylul University, Turkey 2Department of Soil Science and Ecology, Faculty of Forestry, Istanbul University, Turkey Abstract Biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions from thirty-eight tree species (twenty broad leaved and eighteen coniferous) grown in Turkey were measured. BVOC samples were collected with a specialized dynamic enclosure technique in forest areas where these tree species are naturally grown. In this method, the branches were enclosed in transparent nalofan bags maintaining their natural conditions and avoiding any source of stress. The air samples from the inlet and outlet of the bags were collected on an adsorbent tube containing Tenax. Samples were analyzed using a thermal desorption (TD) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) system. Sixty-five BVOC compounds were analyzed in five major groups: isoprene, monoterpenes, sesquiterpens, oxygenated sesquiterpenes and other oxygenated VOCs. Emission factors were calculated and adjusted to standard conditions (1000 μmol/m2 s photosynthetically active radiation-PAR and 30°C temperature). Consistent with the literature, broad leaved trees emitted mainly isoprene while the coniferous trees emitted mainly monoterpenes. Even though fir species are coniferous trees, they emitted significant amounts of isoprene in addition to monoterpenes. Oak species showed a large inter-species variability in their emissions. Pine species emitted mainly monoterpenes and substantial amounts of oxygenated compounds. Keywords: BVOC emissions, dynamic enclosure system, emission factor, Turkey.

Abstract This thesis investigates the challenging task of sensitive and selective trace detection of explosive compounds by means of proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS). In order to address this, new analytical strategies and hardware improvements, leading to new methodologies and analytical tools, have been developed and tested. These are, in order of the Chapters presented in this thesis, the switching of reagent ions, the implementation of a novel thermal desorption unit, and the use of an ion funnel drift tube or fast reduced electric field switching to modify the ion chemistry. In addition to these, a more fundamental study has been undertaken to investigate the reactions of picric acid (PiA) with a number of different reagent ions. The novel approaches described in this thesis have improved the PTR-MS technique by making it more versatile in terms of its analytical performance, namely providing assignment of chemical compounds with high confidence.

Harman-Ware1* , Robert Sykes1 , Gary F. Peter2 and Mark Davis1 1 National Bioenergy Center, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden, CO, USA, 2 School of Forest Resources and Conservation, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA Terpenoids, naturally occurring compounds derived from isoprene units present in pine oleoresin, are a valuable source of chemicals used in solvents, fragrances, flavors, and have shown potential use as a biofuel. This paper describes a method to extract and analyze the terpenoids present in loblolly pine saplings and pine lighter wood. Various extraction solvents were tested over different times and temperatures. Samples were analyzed by pyrolysis-molecular beam mass spectrometry before and after extractions to monitor the extraction efficiency. The pyrolysis studies indicated that the optimal extraction method used a 1:1 hexane/acetone solvent system at 22°C for 1 h. Extracts from the hexane/acetone experiments were analyzed using a low thermal mass modular accelerated column heater for fast-GC/FID analysis.

  • Estimation of Biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds (Bvocs)
    1 Estimation of biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) 2 emissions from the terrestrial ecosystem in China using real-time 3 remote sensing data 4 M. Li, X. Huang, J. Li and Y. Song* 5 State Key Joint Laboratory of Environmental Simulation and Pollution Control, 6 Department of Environmental Science, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China 7 * Corresponding author: [email protected] 8 Abstract 9 Because of the high emission rate and reactivity, biogenic volatile organic 10 compounds (BVOCs) play a significant role in the terrestrial ecosystems, human health, 11 secondary pollution, global climate change and the global carbon cycle. Past 12 estimations of BVOC emissions in China on the national scale were based on outdated 13 empirical algorithms suggested around 10 years ago and coarsely-resolved 14 meteorological data, and there have been significant aging of the land surface 15 parameters in dynamic meteorological models and BVOC estimation models, leading 16 to large inaccuracies in the estimated results. To refine BVOC emission estimations for 17 China, we used the latest algorithms of MEGAN (Model of Emissions of Gases and 18 Aerosols from Nature), with modified MM5 (the Fifth-Generation Mesoscale Model) 19 providing highly resolved meteorological data, to estimate the biogenic emissions of 20 VOCs for China in 2006. Real-time MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging 21 Spectroradiometer) land-use and vegetative cover data were introduced in MM5 to 22 replace the land surface parameters and to improve the simulation performance of 23 MM5. Highly-resolved 8-day MODIS leaf area index (LAI) data were also used to 24 determine the influence of LAI and leaf age deviation from standard conditions.

  • Analysis and Comparison of Essential Oil Components Extracted from the Heartwoods of Leyland Cypress, Alaska Yellow Cedar, and Monterey Cypress
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Xinfeng Liu for the degree of Master of Science in Wood Science presented on March 17, 2009. Title: Analysis and Comparison of Essential Oil Components Extracted from the Heartwoods of Leyland Cypress, Alaska Yellow Cedar, and Monterey Cypress. Abstract approved: ___________________________ Joseph J. Karchesy The essential oil components of cedar heartwoods play an important role in the durability of these trees. Yet, the composition of these oils and identity of many of the compounds remains unknown, or incompletely know for some commercially important cedar heartwoods. The essential oil extracts of Alaska Yellow Cedar (Chamaecyparis nootkatensis), Monterey Cypress (Cupressus macrocarpa), and Leyland Cypress (xCupressoparis leylandii ) which is an intergenetic hybrid of the first two species is such a case. GC-MS analyses were carried out on the heartwood essential oil extracts of these three species in order to determine the chemical composition of each essential oil and to compare the composition of the intergenetic hybrid (Leyland Cypress) with its parent species. Analyses were carried out on both steam distilled (6 and 12 hour) and solvent extracted oils. For example in the 6 hour distilled oils, Carvacrol was the major component of all three oils, 27% (Alaska Cedar), 67% (Leyland Cypress) and 82% (Monterey Cypress). Terpinen-4-ol and nootkatin were also found in all three oils, but in lesser amounts (3-6%). Only the oils from Alaska cedar and Leyland cypress contained the eremophilane sesquiterpenoids valencene, nootkatene, epinootkatol, nootkatol, 13-hydroxy valencene and nootkatone. This family of compounds was completely absent in Monterey cypress oil.
