Penicillium simplicissimum was cultured and preserved on the potato dextrose agar(PDA)medium.PDA-RBBR(Remazal Brilliant Blue R)medium was used for the screening of the strains,which is able to produce enzymes.After the mutation process in Penicillium simplicissimum induced by chemical reagent and ultraviolet radiation,a high laccase-producing strains Penicillium simplicissimum was obtained.When 5 m L diethyl sulfate(2%)was mixed along with 5 m L spore suspension for 30 min,chemical mutagenesis reached its best condition.And the optimum conditions of UV mutagenesis were that spore suspension was irradiated for 4 min under 15 W UV lamp at a distance of 30 cm.The highest activity of C_5E_4 strains was 4.80 U/g over 18%higher than the maximum laccase activity of original microorganism.Five generations of the mutant strains were cultured,and the laccase activity of the strains was measured.The result showed that C_5E_4 strains can product laccase of the five subcultures stably.
Five trace elements including Zn, Cu, Cd, Cr and As were investigated in surface water from ten typical sampling sites in Honghu Lake. The consequence indicated that all of the detected trace element levels were within the allowed standard of China’s safe water guideline. The hazard quotients （HQ） and the hazard index （HI） value levels of all the five heavy metals in all sampling sites did not exceed the acceptable risk limits of non-carcinogenic value through the selected assessment method. Pearson’s correlation analysis and principal component analysis （PCA） indicated that Zn and Cu mainly originated from the natural alluviation and non-point agricultural sources, whereas Cr and As were mainly derived from industrial effluents. Moreover, Cd mainly originated from both non-point agricultural and industrial pollution sources. In addition, cluster analysis （CA） implied that cluster 1 （including S3, S5, S6 and S10） was considered the set of high pollution sites and cluster 2 （including S4 and S9） was identified as the set of moderate pollution sites.

Based on ecological niche theory, Microcystis Aeruginosa(MA) immobilized in the complex of polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)and sodium alginate(SA) crosslinked by CaCl2, was treated as a new kind of special species, and its properties were investigated.Chlorophyll a was used to characterize the bioactivity of the immobilized MA. Results reveal that the gel beads have mechanical strength and chemical stability even under non-sterile harsh conditions, which may be attributed to the rarely seen structure(including three different layers: dense surface, tubular-shaped divergent structure and honeycomb crystal lattice layer) of the immobilized MA determined by scanning electron microscope(SEM). SEM also displays that more quantity of MA is attached to the inwall after cultivation, which demonstrates that the MA within beads maintains high bioactivity. Removal capacities on phosphorous(P) removal in wastewater in the presence and absence of the BG-11 medium were examined, and the removal ratios are 80.3% and76.7%, respectively, which indicates that the beads without providing ample nutrients still have high capacity of P removal. In addition, control experiment, utilizing polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate(PVA-SA) beads without immobilized MA,demonstrates that MA within beads plays the key role in absorbing P.
Assisted by framework of multimedia total exposure model for hazard waste sites(CalTOX),potential influences of scenario-uncertainty on multimedia health risk assessment(MHRA) and decision-making were quantitatively analyzed in a primary extent under the Chinese scenario case by deliberately varying the two key scenario-elements,namely conceptual exposure pathways combination and aim receptor cohorts choice.Results show that the independent change of one exposure pathway or receptor cohort could lead variation of MHRA results in the range of 3.6×10-6-1.4×10-5 or 6.7×10-6-2.3×10-5.And randomly simultaneous change of those two elements could lead variation of MHRA results at the range of 7.7×10-8-2.3×10-5.On the basis of the corresponding sensitivity analysis,pathways which made a valid contribution to the final modeling risk value occupied only 16.7% of all considered pathways.Afterwards,comparative analysis between influence of parameter-uncertainty and influence of scenario-uncertainty was made.In consideration of interrelationship among all types of uncertainties and financial reasonability during MHRA procedures,the integrated method how to optimize the entire procedures of MHRA was presented innovatively based on sensitivity analysis,scenario-discussion and nest Monte Carlo simulation or fuzzy mathematics.
