Electro-rheological (ER) nano-suspensions based on titanium dioxide nano-particles with particle diameter on the order of 100 nm were prepared. Micro-gap flow behavior and microstructure were evaluated for the suspensions with a particle volume fraction of 8.8 vol%. For the nano-suspension based on a silicone oil, the ER effect and flow behavior were found to be stable during the sharing time on the order of 102?s. The ER response measured at a given strength of the electric field for the nano-suspension based on a chemically modified silicone oil was effectively induced by the electric field, especially with low strengths, and it was larger than that of the nano-suspension based on the silicone oil but slightly lower than that based on a hydrocarbon oil. Furthermore, the relaxation of the ER response after removal of the electric field was somewhat slow for the nano-suspension based on the hydrocarbon oil, whereas it was fairly well for the nano-suspension based on the modified silicone oil. 相似文献

8-Hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) DNA adduct is one of the most frequently used biomarkers reporting on the oxidative stress
that leads to DNA damage. More sensitive and reliable microfluidic devices are needed for the detection of these biomarkers
of interest. We have developed a capillary electrophoresis (CE)-based microfluidic device with an electroplated palladium
decoupler that provides significantly improved detection limit, separation efficiency, and resolving power. The poly(dimethylsiloxane)
(PDMS)/glass hybrid device has fully integrated gold microelectrodes covered in situ with palladium nanoparticles using an
electroplating technique. The performance and coverage of the electrodes electroplated with palladium particles were evaluated
electrochemically and via scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging, respectively. The performance of the device was tested
and evaluated with different buffer systems, pH values, and electric field strengths. The results showed that this device
has significantly improved resolving power, even at separation electric field strengths as high as 600 V cm−1. The detection limit for the 8-OH-dG adduct is about 20 attomoles; the concentration limit is on the order of 100 nM (S/N = 3).
A linear response is reported for both 8-OH-dG and dG in the range from 100 nM to 150 μM (≈100 pA μM−1) with separation efficiencies of approximately 120,000–170,000 plates m−1. 相似文献

Electrorheological properties and creep-recovery behavior of polythiophene/polyoxymethylene-blend having PT(50%)/POM(50%) composition were investigated.Particle size,conductivity and dielectric values were measured to be 24.77μm,3.85×10-5 S·m-1 and 26.75,respectively.Sedimentation ratio was measured to be 64%at the end of 16 days.The effects of dispersed particle volume fraction,external electric field strength,shear rate,frequency and temperature on ER properties and storage modulus of PT/POM-blend/silicone oil(SO) suspensions were examined.Enhancement were observed in the electric field viscosities of the suspensions and thus they were classified as a smart material.Shear thinning non-Newtonian viscoelastic behavior was determined for PT/POM-blend/SO system.Further,time-dependent deformation was examined by creep-recovery tests and recoverable viscoelastic deformation established. 相似文献

A new type of capacitance-coupled contactless conductivity detection (C4D) system with sidewall electrodes was proposed for integration on a silicon-on-isolator–poly(dimethylsiloxane) (SOI-PDMS)
hybrid low-voltage-driven electrophoresis microchip. By a microelectromechanical system process, the sidewall electrodes were
fabricated precisely at either side of the separation channel. The area of the capacitor electrodes was the maximum value
to improve the detection sensitivity with an enhanced capacitance effect. According to the simulation results, the structural
parameters of the sidewall electrodes were determined as 550-μm length, 15-μm width, 80-μm separation distance, and 1-μm isolator
thickness. The integrated microdevice with the SOI-PDMS hybrid electrophoresis microchip was very compact and the size was
only 15 cm × 15 cm × 10 cm (width × length × height), which permitted miniaturization and portability. The detector performance
was evaluated by K+ testing. The detection limit of the conductivity detector was determined to be 10-9 and 10-6 M for K+ in the static and electric-driven modes, respectively. Finally, the C4D was applied to low-voltage-driven electrophoresis on a microchip to carry out real-time measurement of the separation of
amino acids. The separations of 10-4 M lysine and phenylalanine in the low-voltage-driven electrophoresis mode were performed with an electric field of 300 V/cm
and were completed in less than 15 min with a resolution of 1.3. The separation efficiency was found to be 1.3 × 103 and 2.8 × 103 plates for lysine and phenylalanine, respectively, with a migration time reproducibility of 2.7 and 3.2%. The conductivity
detection limit of amino acids achieved was 10-6 M. The proposed method for the construction of a novel C4D integrated on an SOI-PDMS hybrid low-voltage-driven electrophoresis microchip showed the most extensive integration and
miniaturization of a microdevice, which is a further crucial step toward the realization of the “lab-on-a-chip” concept. 相似文献

Three-dimensional interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) have been investigated as sensing elements for biosensors. Electric field
and current density were simulated in the vicinity of these electrodes as a function of the electrode width, gap, and height
to determine the optimum geometry. Both the height and the gap between the electrodes were found to have significant effect
on the magnitude and distribution of the electric field and current density near the electrode surface, while the width of
the electrodes was found to have a smaller effect on field strength and current density. IDEs were fabricated based on these
simulations and their performance tested by detecting C-reactive protein (CRP), a stress-related protein and an important
biomarker for inflammation, cardiovascular disease risk indicator, and postsurgical recuperation. CRP-specific antibodies
were immobilized on the electrode surface and the formation of an immunocomplex (IC) with CRP was monitored. Electrochemical
impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was employed as the detection technique. EIS data at various concentrations (1 pg/mL to 10 μg/mL)
of CRP spiked in buffer or diluted human serum was collected and fitted into an equivalent electrical circuit model. Change
in resistance was found to be the parameter most sensitive to change in CRP concentration. The sensor response was linear
from 0.1 ng/mL to 1 μg/mL in both buffer and 5% human serum samples. The CRP samples were validated using a commercially available
ELISA for CRP detection. Hence, the viability of IDEs and EIS for the detection of serum biomarkers was established without
using labeled or probe molecules. 相似文献

A diffusion junction between two paired gold electrodes is created in a bipotentiostatic electro-deposition process. Gold
metal is deposited simultaneously on two adjacent disc electrodes (100 μm diameter, approximately 125 μm separation) until
short-circuit conditions trigger the end point of the electro-deposition. Symmetric gold junctions with typically 5 μm average
inter-electrode gap size, 140 μm gap length, and approximately 18 μm junction depth are obtained. These paired gold electrodes
are employed in generator–collector mode to give well-defined steady-state feedback currents even for extremely low concentrations
of analyte (sub-μM) and without any contributions from capacitive charging. Four redox systems are investigated spanning a
wide range of diffusion coefficients: (1) the one-electron oxidation of iodide to iodine, (2) the two-electron oxidation of
hydroquinone to benzoquinone, (3) the two-electron reduction of alizarin red S, and (4) the one-electron oxidation of the
redox protein cytochrome c. Consistent results for these redox systems suggest that (1) the junction zone between the two electrodes is dominating the
behaviour of the electrode in particular for the slower diffusing systems and (2) the paired gold electrode junction can be
calibrated and employed for electroanalysis at very low concentrations and for a wider range of analytically relevant redox
systems.

Fast electrophoretic separations in fused silica capillaries (CE) coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) are
presented. CE separations of the model analytes (epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, histidine, and isoproterenol) under
conditions of high electric field strengths of up to 1.25 kV cm−1 are completed in 20 s. Coupling of CE with TOF-MS is accomplished using a coaxial sheath liquid electrospray ionization interface.
The influence of parameters inherent to the interface and their effects, including suction pressure and dilution, are discussed.
In addition to standard capillaries of 75 and 50 μm inner diameter (ID), separations in capillaries with IDs of 25, 15, and
5 μm have been successfully applied to this setup. The analytical performance is compared over this range of capillary dimensions,
and both advantages and disadvantages are discussed. 相似文献

Methodology for time-weighted average (TWA) air measurements of semivolatile organophosphate triesters, widely used flame-retardants
and plasticizers, and common indoor pollutants is presented. Dynamic non-equilibrium solid-phase microextraction (SPME) for
air sampling, in combination with GC/PICI and ion trap tandem MS, yields a fast, almost solvent-free method with low detection
limits. Methanol was used as reagent gas for PICI, yielding stable protonated molecules and few fragments. A field sampler,
in which a pumped airflow over three polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 100-μm fibers in series was applied, was constructed, evaluated,
and used for the measurements. The method LODs were in the range 2–26 ng m−3 for a sampling period of 2 h. The uptake on the SPME fibers was shown to be about five times faster for triphenyl phosphate
compared to the other investigated organophosphate esters, most likely due to more lipophilic properties of the aromatic compound.
The boundary layer for triphenyl phosphate when using a 100-μm PDMS sorbent was determined to 0.08 mm at a linear air velocity
of 34 cm s−1. Five different organophosphate triesters were detected in air from a laboratory and a lecture hall, at concentrations ranging
from 7 ng m−3 up to 2.8 μg m−3. 相似文献

Structural and electrical responses of the (4,0) zigzag model of single-walled boron nitride (BN) nanotube (NT) (with edges
terminated by H atoms) have been investigated under the external electric fields (parallel and transverse) with strengths
0−2.0 × 10−2 a.u. using DFT-B3LYP/6-31G* method. Calculated electric dipole moment shows a significant change in the presence of the parallel
and perpendicular external electric fields which result in much stronger interactions at higher electric field strengths.
Natural bond orbital (NBO) atomic charges analysis shows that the separation of the center of the positive and the center
of the negative electric charges of (4,0) zigzag BNNT increase with increase the applied parallel and transverse electric
field strengths. The applied fields change the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital
(LUMO) energies and decrease the HOMO–LUMO gap (HLG) values. The calculated electronic spatial extent (ESE) showed small changes
of <0.63% and <1.53% over the entire range of the applied parallel and perpendicular electric field strengths, respectively.
Results of this study indicate that the properties of BNNTs can be controlled by applying the proper external electric field.

Fast capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry measurements under counter-electroosmotic analyte migration conditions are
presented. Efficient separations of a homologous series of six hyaluronan oligosaccharides (comprising 1–6 hyalobiuronic acid
moieties) could be completed in 65 s. Separations were achieved in short-length fused silica capillaries under high electric
field strengths of up to 1.25 kV·cm−1. Capillary inner diameters ranging from 5 to 50 μm were investigated, resulting in an optimal value of 15 μm. The influence
of capillary dimensions and buffer composition on separation efficiency and sensitivity are discussed. Optimal separations
were achieved using a 28 cm × 15 μm capillary, a separation high voltage of 35 kV, a background electrolyte of 25 mM ammonium
acetate adjusted to pH 8.5, and negative ionization mode. The optimized method was successfully applied to a bovine testicular
hyaluronidase digest of hyaluronan. Only minimal sample pretreatment for protein-containing samples is required. The simple
manual injection procedure and fast separations allow for a sample throughput of 35 samples per hour. 相似文献

AC electroosmotic (ACEO) flow above the gap between coplanar electrodes is mapped by the measurement of Stokes forces on an optically trapped polystyrene colloidal particle. E2‐dependent forces on the probe particle are selected by amplitude modulation (AM) of the ACEO electric field (E) and lock‐in detection at twice the AM frequency. E2‐dependent DEP of the probe is eliminated by driving the ACEO at the probe's DEP crossover frequency. The location‐independent DEP crossover frequency is determined, in a separate experiment, as the limiting frequency of zero horizontal force as the probe is moved toward the midpoint between the electrodes. The ACEO velocity field, uncoupled from probe DEP effects, was mapped in the region 1–9 μm above a 28 μm gap between the electrodes. By use of variously sized probes, each at its DEP crossover frequency, the frequency dependence of the ACEO flow was determined at a point 3 μm above the electrode gap and 4 μm from an electrode tip. At this location the ACEO flow was maximal at ~117 kHz for a low salt solution. This optical trapping method, by eliminating DEP forces on the probe, provides unambiguous mapping of the ACEO velocity field. 相似文献

Three types of monocrystalline diamond: natural diamond 1 μm, synthetic diamond 50 μm (synthetic-1), and synthetic diamond
1 μm (synthetic-2) were used for the design of diamond paste electrodes for the determination of sildenafil citrate (Viagra)
using square wave voltammetry. The linear concentration ranges recorded for sildenafil citrate when natural diamond, synthetic-1,
and synthetic-2 based electrodes were used were between 10−12 and 10−8, 10−12 and 10−9, and 10−11 and 10−9 mol/L, respectively. Low detection limits which lie between 0.1 and 1 pmol/L proves the sensitivity of the electrodes. It
was found that sildenafil citrate yielded a peak at about +0.175 ± 0.025 V (versus Ag/AgCl) for all the electrodes. Sildenafil
citrate was determined with high reliability from its pharmaceutical formulation. 相似文献

An investigation of an array of four Pt microband electrodes 25 μm wide and spaced 25 μm apart was performed with the scanning
electrochemical microscope (SECM). Where possible the SECM measurements were confirmed with conventional electrochemical measurements.
It is shown how the sensiti- vity of the SECM recycling current to the activity of the underlying surface can be used to probe
the homogeneity of enzyme-modified microelectrodes. The diffusion of H2O2 between these micro enzyme- electrodes and unmodified electrodes was investigated and it was demonstrated how the SECM can
be a powerful tool in the elucidation of the properties of these electrodes.

The electroreduction of metol on mechanically renewed metallic electrodes is studied by direct voltammetry with linear potential
sweep. Reduction peaks of metol are found in a neutral supporting electrolyte (0.02–0.5 M Na2SO4) on nickel, silver, and mercury electrodes before the potential of hydrogen liberation from the supporting electrolyte. The
shape and parameters of the cathodic peak depend on an electrode material, and also on the composition and pH of the supporting
solution. A probable mechanism of the electroreduction of metol is proposed. The regeneration of nickel and silver electrodes
by in situ mechanical cutting of a 0.5-μm surface layer provides good reproducibility of the value of peak current; it is
proportional to the concentration of metol in the range 2 × 10−3–1.8 × 10−2 M. 相似文献

The influence of the radius (10 <a < 1500 μm) of a Pt disk electrode on the impedance frequency spectrum of the [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- reversible system is studied in the frequency range 5 × 10-3 to 103 Hz. The impedance is calculated by applying the Fourier transform to potential and current pulses of various lengths obtained
when imposing a step potential. For electrodes witha < 100 μm, the spectrum in the complex plane has the form characteristic of microelectrodes, while for electrodes of higher
radii, it corresponds to a finite Warburg impedance. The main impedance parameters, such as the charge transfer resistance,
the diffusion resistance, and the frequency in the maximum of the imaginary constituent are determined. The latter decreases
with an increase ina by the lawf* ∼ 1/a2 at lowa and is independent ofa on electrodes witha > 100 μm, which agrees with the impedance theory for microelectrodes 相似文献

Titanium oxide nanotube electrodes were successfully prepared by anodic oxidation on pure Ti sheets in 0.5 wt.% NH4F + 1 wt.% (NH4)2SO4 + 90 wt.% glycerol mixed solutions. Nanotubes with diameter 40–60 nm and length 7.4 μm were observed by field emission scanning
electron microscope. The electrochemical and photoelectrochemical characteristics of TiO2 nanotube electrode were investigated using linear polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. The
open-circuit potential dropped markedly under irradiation and with the increase of Cl− concentrations. A saturated photocurrent of approximately 1.3 mA cm−2 was observed under 10-W low-mercury lamp irradiation in 0.1 M NaCl solution, which was much higher than film electrode. Meanwhile,
the highest photocurrent in NaCl solution implied that the photogenerated holes preferred to combine with Cl−. Thus, a significant synergetic effect on active chlorine production was observed in photoelectrocatalytic processes. Furthermore,
the generation efficiency for active chlorine was about two times that using TiO2/Ti film electrode by sol–gel method. Finally, the effects of initial pH and Cl− concentration were also discussed. 相似文献

In the present study five samples of special rubber–lead were fabricated each of them consists of lead and rubber with different
weight ratios. The fabrication was carried out through the process of mixing under compression pressure. Gamma-ray transmission
method was employed to determine the linear attenuation coefficient for narrow collimated mono-energetic beams of gamma-rays
emitted from 241Am 0.059, 152Eu 0.13 and 137Cs 0.662 MeV. The linear attenuation coefficient of standard rubber–lead shield was also experimentally determined. The percentage
of lead in standard rubber–lead shield was determined through the calibration curve or by a simple computer program written
in MATLAB. All prepared samples are characterized as flexible and gives a good homogeneity. samples no. 4 & 5 offers the best
performance as a radiation protection shields. The results showed an inverse proportionality between the linear attenuation
coefficient μl and E, and μl has a direct proportionality with mixing ratios (sample density). The results showed an inverse proportional between the
half value layers and the average linear attenuation coefficients of the various samples. 相似文献

The use of a copper solid amalgam electrode (CuSAE) for the analytical determination of triazine herbicides (atrazine and
ametryne) instead of the conventional hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) is reported. The results obtained using electroanalytical
methods utilizing each of these electrodes were also compared with those provided by the HPLC technique. The results indicated
that the CuSAE electrode can be used to detect the herbicides studied, since the detection limits reached using the electrode
(3.06 μg L−1 and 3.78 μg L−1 for atrazine and ametryne, respectively) are lower than the maximum values permitted by CONAMA (Brazilian National Council
for the Environment) for wastewaters (50 μg L−1) and by the US EPA (Environmental Protection Agency of the United States) in natural water samples (10.00 μg L−1). An electroanalytical methodology employing CuSAE and square wave voltammetry (SWV) was successfully applied to the determination
of atrazine and ametryne in natural water samples, yielding good recoveries (70.30%–79.40%). This indicates that the CuSAE
provides a convenient substitute for the HMDE, particularly since the CuSAE minimizes the toxic waste residues produced by
the use of mercury in HDME-based analyses. 相似文献

Summary Peak compression of a dihydropyridine drug, clevidipine, is obtained in both analytical and semi-preparative scale supercritical
fluid chromatography, resulting in extremely high apparent efficiencies. The observed effect, when utilising a carbon dioxide/2-propanol
mobile phase with a bare silica stationary phase, is achieved when the retention of the clevidipine peak is controlled to
coalesce with a system peak, generated as a result of having water in the sample. Apparent efficiencies of 350,000 and 170,000
plates meter−1 were obtained when 0.25 and 0.5 mg, respectively, are directly injected to a 200×4.6 mm ID 5 μm Hypersil silica packed column.
The effect was extended to a semi-preparative system where apparent efficiencies in the region of 2,000,000 plates meter−1 were observed when 0.3 mg of a clevidipine sample containing 80% water was injected to a 250×10 mm I.D. column containing
5-μm Hypersil silica particles. 相似文献

Summary Porous silica microparticles designed for modern liquid chromatography have proven effective in gas chromatography. Columns
of 35–50 cm gave plate heights as low as 3.3 particle diameters and speeds of 2400 theoretical plates per second or 500 effective
theoretical plates per second. Inlet pressures up to 70 atmospheres were required using hydrogen as carrier gas. The particles
as received were too retentive for fast chromatography and gave asymmetric peaks. A coating of fluorosilicone oil overcame
both problems. Other coatings were less effective. Bonded phases proved less satisfactory on both counts and also gave substantially
less efficient columns and greater flow resistance. Column efficiency and flow resistance were sharply dependent on physical
properties of the particles. The most efficient packing was clearly spherical particles of 5–10 μm diameter with narrow size
distribution, pore diamters about 50 nm, BET surface areas of 25–50 m2/g and surfaces modified with trifluoropropyl silicone. A six-component hydrocarbon sample was separated in 33 s with a resolution
of 4 for the most difficult pair and in 2.6 s with a minimal resolution. Performance was limited by end effects and by available
pressure so that much better performance can be expected from longer columns and higher pressures. 相似文献
