The alpha proton x-ray spectrometer (APXS) on board the rover of the Mars Pathfinder mission measured the chemical composition of six soils and five rocks at the Ares Vallis landing site. The soil analyses show similarity to those determined by the Viking missions. The analyzed rocks were partially covered by dust but otherwise compositionally similar to each other. They are unexpectedly high in silica and potassium, but low in magnesium compared to martian soils and martian meteorites. The analyzed rocks are similar in composition to terrestrial andesites and close to the mean composition of Earth's crust. Addition of a mafic component and reaction products of volcanic gases to the local rock material is necessary to explain the soil composition.
Aluminium-organic species in tea infusions were studied by size exclusion chromatography, using a Superose 12 HR column, a mobile phase of 0.12 mol l-1 tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane adjusted to pH 5.5 and detection by UV-visible spectrophotometry. Aluminium was detected after post-column reaction with pyrocatechol violet at 585 nm and the organic material was detected at 280 nm. Teas of different origin were analyzed; the results indicate that aluminium is bound to the same relatively narrow size-range of large organic molecules in the tea infusions, irrespective of the origin of the tea.
We isolated a DNA fragment (ALU1-P) encoding a protein with an activity of aluminum tolerance from an Al tolerant soil microorganism, Arthrobacter viscosus. This microorganism was isolated from acidic tea field soils. The cloned DNA is composed of 1090 nucleotides, which has one open-reading frame without any stop codon. However, when the DNA fragment was transferred into Escherichia coli, a microorganism susceptible to Al toxicity, it endowed E. coli with Al tolerance. The deduced amino acid sequence of the DNA showed 65% identity with the protein of YbaX gene in Escherichia coli, and 51.1% identity with YB91 Haein hypothetical protein of HI1191 gene in Haemophilus influenzae. The ALU1-P gene in the expression vector produced a protein of 192 amino acids deriving a molecular weight of 21.3 kDa by using the stop codon in vector. The ALU1-P gene is a new one that has the characteristic of Al tolerance.
