흡입 샘플링은 작물에 절지 동물 사회를 샘플링하는 여러 가지 방법 중 하나입니다. 시각 카운트 대조 - - 컬렉션 이상 처리 샘플의 저장을 허용 쌀 시스템 과학 연구 흡입 샘플링 적절한 옵션이 방법은 절지 밀도의 절대 추정치를 제공하기 때문에,이 비파괴하고있다. 시중에서 판매하는 D-진공 청소기에 비해 송풍기 - 진공 청소기는 인클로저와 결합 작고, 가볍고 및 (홍수) 논에서 쉽게 처리 할 수​​도 쉽다. 예를 들어, 송풍기 - 진공 청소기는 곤충 표본 추출에 대한 국제 표준으로 제시 배낭 D-진공 청소기 모델, 반면, 중량 12kg (11), 약 6kg의 무게. 송풍기-VAC의 비용이 작을 때 더욱 중요한 송풍기-VAC의 샘플링의 효율은 D-VAC (16, 17)보다 높다. 흡입 샘플러로 잎 송풍기 - 진공 청소기의 수정은 특별한 기술이나 장비가 필요하지 않습니다모든 추가 부품이 수집 한 후 시간 미만이 소요됩니다. 여기에 설명 된 송풍기-VAC는 구성 및 문헌 (16, 17)에 전술 한 버전보다 쉽게 동작하고, 필요한 부분 (표 1)는 널리 사용할 표준 건축 재료이다. 이는 개발 도상국의 작은 예산 연구자 또한 송풍기 - 진공 청소기에 액세스 할 수 있습니다. 엔진의 힘과 변위는 송풍기-VAC의 흡인력을 결정한다. 여기에서 우리는 0.7-1.2 kW의 쌀에 공장 사는 절지 동물 커뮤니티 샘플링에 적합 25-35 CC 사이의 변위 사이의 힘으로 기계를 추천합니다. 플렉시블 플라스틱 호스의 길이 및 흡인 입구 부 (파이프 7)의 직경은 좋은 샘플링 성능에 중요하다. 샘플링시 사용하기 불편 너무 짧은 호스 반면 흡인력을 감소 너무 긴 호스. 비슷하게,너무 큰 직경의 마우스 부 인해 작은 표면 샘플링의 효율을 감소 너무 작은 직경 반면 흡인력을 감소시킬 것이다. 샘플링 효율 샘플링 기간에 달려있다. 샘플링 재배 기간에 걸쳐 수행되는 경우, 샘플링 시간은 효율과 유사한 수준을 유지하는 식물의 크기, 구조 및 파종 밀도가 조절 될 수있다. 표본 추출 효율을 샘플링 한 후 동봉 된 지역주의 육안 검사로 확인해야합니다. 절지 여전히 존재가 있으면, 샘플링 기간은 증가되어야한다. 생장 단계에서 쌀 작물의 권장 샘플링 지속 시간은 1 분입니다 및 생식 및 숙성 단계에서 2 분 거리에 있습니다. 대안 등의 함정과 같은 방법 및 이길 시트 샘플링 물을 서에서 가능하지 않은 상태에서 송풍기 - 진공 청소기에 흡입 샘플링, 침수 분야에서 수행 될 수있다. 송풍기 - 진공 청소기도 할 수있다시스템이 물을 흡입 할 수있는 바와 같이, 침수 논 (예를 들면, 육 물 버그)의 물 표면에 절지 커뮤니티를 샘플링하는데 사용. 그러나, 입 부분이 물에 깊이 삽입되고 공기 흐름이 차단 될 때 실행을 중지 할 수 있습니다 모터로 수생 절지 동물을 샘플링하지 않는 것이 좋습니다. 그렇다 쌀 송풍기-VAC도만큼 식물의 높이 및 구조와 같은 기타 작물 및 비 - 작물 서식지에서 사용할 수있는 인클로저 (25)의 적절한 배치를 허용한다. 우리 송풍기-VAC 흡입 추출법 비파괴이다. 샘플링 그물에 수집 거의 모든 절지 동물은 모기와 damselflies로 그 부드러운 몸을 포함, 살아 남았다. 이 방법의 응용 프로그램은, 그러나, 몇 가지 제한과 단점이 있습니다. 송풍기-VAC 두 사람에 의해 작동 될 필요가있다. 현장에서 송풍기 - 진공 청소기를 운반하는 것은 어떤 방해가 발생합니다, 따라서이 방법은 과소 평가 할 수있다이러한 메뚜기와 같은 교란에 민감한 종. 운동의 정방향 비교적 교란 영역에 격납 빠르고 급격​​한 배치이 전위 바이어스를 제한 할 수있다. 송풍기 - 진공 청소기 기계의 시끄러운 소리도 방해를 일으킬 수 있으며, 주거 지역에서 밤에 샘플링하는 것은 권장되지 않습니다. 이 방법은 약탈 잠자리 이상 hymenopterous 기생으로 높은 모바일 비행 곤충을 샘플링에 적합하지 않습니다. 임의의 샘플링 방식과 같이, 이러한 스윕 순 샘플링 또는 식물 파괴 수확과 같은 다른 방법으로 송풍기-VAC의 조합은 절지 커뮤니티 (26)의보다 완전한 평가와 균형을 제공 할 수있다.

작물의 초식성 및 entomophagous 절지 동물의 풍요 로움과 다양성의 반복 된 평가는 생물학적 방제 연구를 포함하여 인구 역학과 종 상호 작용의 생태 연구를 위해 필요합니다. 라이스 장관은 entomophagous 절지 동물 1, 2에 의해 생물학적 방제에 대한 높은 가능성, 주요 상식이지만, 이는 살충제 (3)에 의해 중단 될 수 있습니다. 예를 들면 (쌀 작물의 절지 동물의 다양성이 높을 수 있고, 절지 동물 종은 다양한 작물 계층 (예를 들어, 땅, 줄기, 캐노피, 꽃)를 차지 운동 (예를 들면, 걷기, 점프, 비행)의 모드에서 다른 전략을 구하고 고착 곤충, 사냥 육식 동물, 꽃의 방문 수분 매개자) 4를 빠는. 절지 샘플링 기법 장단점 각각의 넓은 범위가있다. 예를 들어, 함정 트랩 접지 사는 절지 샘플 있지만 활성 의존적 RELA을 제공하는데 사용될 수있다적인 인구는 5,6 추정하고있다. 스윕 그물은 캐노피 7-9에서 빠르게 비행 곤충 샘플 있지만 절지 풍부 상대 추정치를 제공하는데 사용될 수있다. 비트 시트 법 식물 사는 절지 커뮤니티를 샘플링하는데 사용 절지 풍부한 절대 추정치를 제공하지만, 이러한 논 10 효과적으로 침수 작물 분야에서 사용될 수 없다 할 수있다. 분야의 표준화 영역을 다루는 인클로저와 함께 실시 흡입 샘플링, 식물 서식하는 절지 동물의 밀도의 절대 추정치를 제공합니다. 이 방법은 침수 쌀에 사용될 수있다. 샘플은 이후의 처리 및 식별을 위해 저장 될 수있다. Dietrick 진공 (D-VAC) (11)는 제 상업적 개발 흡입 샘플러이다.

Integrated Field Lysimetry and Porewater Sampling for Evaluation of Chemical Mobility in Soils and Established Vegetation

Potentially toxic chemicals are routinely applied to land to meet growing demands on waste management and food production, but the fate of these chemicals is often not well understood. Here we demonstrate an integrated field lysimetry and porewater sampling method for evaluating the mobility of chemicals applied to soils and established vegetation. Lysimeters, open columns made of metal or plastic, are driven into bareground or vegetated soils. Porewater samplers, which are commercially available and use vacuum to collect percolating soil water, are installed at predetermined depths within the lysimeters. At prearranged times following chemical application to experimental plots, porewater is collected, and lysimeters, containing soil and vegetation, are exhumed. By analyzing chemical concentrations in the lysimeter soil, vegetation, and porewater, downward leaching rates, soil retention capacities, and plant uptake for the chemical of interest may be quantified. Because field lysimetry and porewater sampling are conducted under natural environmental conditions and with minimal soil disturbance, derived results project real-case scenarios and provide valuable information for chemical management. As chemicals are increasingly applied to land worldwide, the described techniques may be utilized to determine whether applied chemicals pose adverse effects to human health or the environment.

Field lysimetry and porewater sampling allow researchers to evaluate the fate of chemicals applied to soils and established vegetation. The goal of this protocol is to demonstrate how to install required instrumentation and collect samples for chemical analysis during integrated field lysimetry and porewater sampling experiments.

VacuSIP, an Improved InEx Method for In Situ Measurement of Particulate and Dissolved Compounds Processed by Active Suspension Feeders

Benthic suspension feeders play essential roles in the functioning of marine ecosystems. By filtering large volumes of water, removing plankton and detritus, and excreting particulate and dissolved compounds, they serve as important agents for benthic-pelagic coupling. Accurately measuring the compounds removed and excreted by suspension feeders (such as sponges, ascidians, polychaetes, bivalves) is crucial for the study of their physiology, metabolism, and feeding ecology, and is fundamental to determine the ecological relevance of the nutrient fluxes mediated by these organisms. However, the assessment of the rate by which suspension feeders process particulate and dissolved compounds in nature is restricted by the limitations of the currently available methodologies. Our goal was to develop a simple, reliable, and non-intrusive method that would allow clean and controlled water sampling from a specific point, such as the excurrent aperture of benthic suspension feeders, in situ. Our method allows simultaneous sampling of inhaled and exhaled water of the studied organism by using minute tubes installed on a custom-built manipulator device and carefully positioned inside the exhalant orifice of the sampled organism. Piercing a septum on the collecting vessel with a syringe needle attached to the distal end of each tube allows the external pressure to slowly force the sampled water into the vessel through the sampling tube. The slow and controlled sampling rate allows integrating the inherent patchiness in the water while ensuring contamination free sampling. We provide recommendations for the most suitable filtering devices, collection vessel, and storing procedures for the analyses of different particulate and dissolved compounds. The VacuSIP system offers a reliable method for the quantification of undisturbed suspension feeder metabolism in natural conditions that is cheap and easy to learn and apply to assess the physiology and functional role of filter feeders in different ecosystems.

Protocols for Quantifying Transferable Pesticide Residues in Turfgrass Systems

Plant canopies in established turfgrass systems can intercept an appreciable amount of sprayed pesticides, which can be transferred through various routes onto humans. For this reason, transferable pesticide residue experiments are required for registration and re-registration by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). Although such experiments are required, limited specificity is required pertaining to experimental approach. Experimental approaches used to assess pesticide transfer to humans including hand wiping with cotton gloves, modified California roller (moving a roller of known mass over cotton cloth) and soccer ball roll (ball wrapped with sorbent strip) over three treated turfgrass species (creeping bentgrass, hybrid bermudagrass and tall fescue maintained at 0.4, 5 and 9 cm, respectively) are presented. The modified California roller is the most extensively utilized approach to date, and is best suited for use at low mowing heights due to its reproducibility and large sampling area. The soccer ball roll is a less aggressive transfer approach; however, it mimics a very common occurrence in the most popular international sport, and has many implications for nondietary pesticide exposure from hand-to-mouth contact. Additionally, this approach may be adjusted for other athletic activities with limited modification. Hand wiping is the best approach to transfer pesticides at higher mowing heights, as roller-based approaches can lay blades over; however, it is more subjective due to more variable sampling pressure. Utility of these methods across turfgrass species is presented, and additional considerations to conduct transferable pesticide residue research in turfgrass systems are discussed.

Transferable pesticide residue experiments in turfgrass systems are integral components of human risk exposure assessments. Experimental approaches to measure transferable residues should be adjusted to the human interaction of interest and turfgrass system dynamics. Three transferable pesticide residue protocols are presented and the suitability across three turfgrass systems is discussed.

Collection and Extraction of Occupational Air Samples for Analysis of Fungal DNA

Traditional methods of identifying fungal exposures in occupational environments, such as culture and microscopy-based approaches, have several limitations that have resulted in the exclusion of many species. Advances in the field over the last two decades have led occupational health researchers to turn to molecular-based approaches for identifying fungal hazards. These methods have resulted in the detection of many species within indoor and occupational environments that have not been detected using traditional methods. This protocol details an approach for determining fungal diversity within air samples through genomic DNA extraction, amplification, sequencing, and taxonomic identification of fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. ITS sequencing results in the detection of many fungal species that are either not detected or difficult to identify to species level using culture or microscopy. While these methods do not provide quantitative measures of fungal burden, they offer a new approach to hazard identification and can be used to determine overall species richness and diversity within an occupational environment.

Determining the fungal diversity within an environment is a method utilized in occupational health studies to identify health hazards. This protocol describes DNA extraction from occupational air samples for amplification and sequencing of fungal ITS regions. This approach detects many fungal species that can be overlooked by traditional assessment methods.

Assessing the Particulate Matter Removal Abilities of Tree Leaves

Based on the conventional cleaning methods (water cleaning (WC) + brush cleaning (BC)), this study evaluated the influence of ultrasonic cleaning (UC) on collecting various sized particulate matter (PM) retained on leaf surfaces. We further characterized the retention efficiency of leaves to various sized PM, which will help to assess the abilities of urban trees to remove PM from ambient air quantitatively. 
Taking three broadleaf tree species (Ginkgo biloba, Sophora japonica, and Salix babylonica) and two needleleaf tree species (Pinus tabuliformis and Sabina chinensis) as the research objects, leaf samples were collected 4 days (short PM retention period) and 14 days (long PM retention period) after the latest rainfall. PM retained on the leaf surfaces was collected by means of WC, BC, and UC in sequence. Then, retention efficiencies of leaves (AEleaf) to three types of the various sized PM, including easily removable PM (ERP), difficult-to-remove PM (DRP), and totally removable PM (TRP), were calculated. Only around 23%-45% of the total PM retained on leaves could be cleaned off and collected by WC. When the leaves were cleaned through WC+BC, the underestimation of the PM retention capacity of different tree species was in the range of 29%-46% for various sized PM. Almost all PM retained on leaves could be removed if UC was supplemented to WC+BC. 
In conclusion, if the UC was complemented after the conventional cleaning methods, more PM on leaf surfaces could be eluted and collected. The procedure developed in this study can be used for assessing the PM removal abilities of different tree species.

The ultrasonic cleaning method was applied to elute the particulate matter (PM) retained on leaf surfaces after PM was eluted by the conventional cleaning methods (water cleaning only or water cleaning plus brush cleaning). The methodology can help to improve the estimation accuracy for PM retention capacity of leaves.

Composition and Distribution Analysis of Bioaerosols Under Different Environmental Conditions

Variable microorganisms in particulate matter (PM) under different environmental conditions may have significant impacts on human health. In this study, we described a protocol for multiple analyses of the biological compositions in environmental PM. Five experiments are presented: (1) PM number monitoring by using a laser particle counter; (2) PM collection by using a cyclonic aerosol sampler; (3) PM collection by using a high-volume air sampler with filters; (4) culturable microbes collection by the Andersen six-stage sampler; and (5) detection of biological composition of environmental PM by bacterial 16SrDNA and fungal ITS region sequencing. We selected hazy days and a livestock farm as two typical examples of the application in this protocol. In this study, these two sampling methods, cyclonic aerosol sampler and filter sampler, showed different sampling efficiency. The cyclonic aerosol sampler performed much better in terms of collecting bacteria, while these two methods showed the same efficiency in collecting fungi. Filter samplers can work under low temperature conditions while cyclonic aerosol samplers have a sampling limitation for temperature. A solid impacting sampler, such as an Andersen six-stage sampler, can be used to sample bioaerosols directly into the culture medium, which increases the survival rate of culturable microorganisms. However, this method mainly relies on culture while more than 99% of microbes cannot be cultured. DNA extracted from the culturable bacteria collected by the Andersen six-stage sampler and samples collected by cyclonic aerosol sampler and filter sampler were detected by bacterial 16S rDNA and fungal ITS region sequencing.All the methods above may have wide application in many fields of study, such as environmental monitoring and airborne pathogen detection. From these results, we can conclude that these methods can be used under different conditions and may help other researchers further explore the health impacts of environmental bioaerosols.

Understanding the biological composition of environmental particulate matter is important for the study of its significant impacts on human health and disease spread. Here, we used three types of bioaerosol sampling methods and a biological analysis of airborne microbes to better explore airborne microbial communities under different environmental conditions.

A Method for Quantifying Foliage-Dwelling Arthropods

Terrestrial arthropods play an important role in our environment. Quantifying arthropods in a way that allows for a precise index or estimates of density requires a method with high detection probability and a known sampling area. While most described methods provide a qualitative or semi-quantitative estimate adequate for describing species presence, richness, and diversity, few provide an adequately consistent detection probability and known or consistent sampling areas to provide an index or estimate with adequate precision to detect differences in abundance across environmental, spatial, or temporal variables. We describe how to quantify leaf-dwelling arthropods by sealing the leaves and end of branches in a bag, clipping and freezing the bagged material, and rinsing the previously frozen material in water to separate arthropods from the substrate and quantify them. As we demonstrate, this method can be used at a landscape scale to quantify leaf-dwelling arthropods with adequate precision to test for and describe how spatial, temporal, environmental, and ecological variables influence arthropod richness and abundance. This method allowed us to detect differences in density, richness, and diversity of leaf-dwelling arthropods among 5 genera of trees commonly found in southeastern deciduous forests.

Quantifying Corticolous Arthropods Using Sticky Traps

Terrestrial arthropods play an important role in our environment. Quantifying arthropods in a way that allows for a precise index or estimate of density requires a method with high detection probability and a consistent sampling area. We used manufactured sticky traps to compare abundance, total length (a surrogate for biomass), richness, and Shannon diversity of corticolous arthropods among the boles of 5 tree species. Efficacy of this method was adequate to detect variation in corticolous arthropods among tree species and provide a standard error of the mean that was &#60;20% of the mean for all estimates with sample sizes from 7 to 15 individual trees of each species. Our results indicate, even with these moderate sample sizes, the level of precision of arthropod community metrics produced with this approach is adequate to address most ecological questions regarding temporal and spatial variation in corticolous arthropods. Results from this method differ from other quantitative approaches such as chemical knockdown, visual inspection, and funnel traps in that they provide an indication of corticolous arthropod activity over a relatively long-term, better including temporary bole residents, flying arthropods that temporarily land on the tree bole and crawling arthropods that use the tree bole as a travel route from the ground to higher forest foliage. Furthermore, we believe that commercially manufactured sticky traps provide more precise estimates and are logistically simpler than the previously described method of directly applying a sticky material to tree bark or applying a sticky material to tape or other type of backing and applying that to the tree bark.

We describe a semi-quantitative approach of measuring characteristics of corticolous (bark-dwelling) arthropod communities. We placed commercially manufactured sticky traps on tree boles to estimate abundance, total length (a surrogate to biomass), richness, and Shannon diversity for comparison among tree species.

Low-Cost Automated Flight Intercept Trap for the Temporal Sub-Sampling of Flying Insects Attracted to Artificial Light at Night

Sampling methods are selected depending on the targeted species or the spatial and temporal requirements of the study. However, most methods for passive sampling of flying insects have a poor temporal resolution because it is time-consuming, costly and/or logistically difficult to perform. Effective sampling of flying insects attracted to artificial light at night (ALAN) requires sampling at user-defined time points (nighttime only) across well-replicated sites resulting in major time and labor-intensive survey effort or expensive automated technologies. Described here is a low-cost automated intercept trap that requires no specialist equipment or skills to construct and operate, making it a viable option for studies that require temporal sub-sampling across multiple sites. The trap can be used to address a wide range of other ecological questions that require a greater temporal and spatial scale than is feasible with previous trap technology.

To study the impacts of artificial light at night (ALAN) on nocturnal flying insects, sampling needs to be confined to nighttime. The protocol describes a low-cost automated flight intercept trap that allows researchers to sample at user-defined periods with increased replication.

Visualizing Field Data Collection Procedures of Exposure and Biomarker Assessments for the Household Air Pollution Intervention Network Trial in India

Here, we present a visual representation of standard procedures to collect population-level data on personal exposures to household air pollution (HAP) from two different study sites in a resource-constrained setting of Tamil Nadu, India. Particulate matter PM2.5 (particles smaller than 2.5 microns in aerodynamic diameter), carbon monoxide (CO), and black carbon (BC) were measured in pregnant mothers (M), other adult women (OAW), and children (C) at various times over a 4 year period. In addition, stove usage monitoring (SUMs) with data-logging thermometers and ambient measurements of air pollution were carried out. Furthermore, the feasibility of collecting biological samples (urine and dried blood spots [DBSs]) from study participants at the field sites was successfully demonstrated. Based on findings from this and earlier studies, the methods used here have enhanced the data quality and avoided issues with household air pollution and biological sample collection in resource-constrained situations. The procedures established may be a valuable educational tool and resource for researchers conducting similar air pollution and health studies in India and other low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

We detail the consistent, high-quality procedures used throughout air and biological sampling processes at Indian field sites during a large randomized controlled trial. Insights gathered from the oversight of applications of innovative technologies, adapted for exposure assessment in rural regions, enable better field data collection practices with more reliable outcomes.
