Osteryoung square wave voltammetric determination of lactose in food samples by a derivative procedure

A method for determination of lactose in food samples by Osteryoung square wave voltammetry （OSWV） was developed. It was based on the nucleophilic addition reaction between lactose and aqua ammonia. The carbonyl group of lactose can be changed into imido group, and this increases the electrochemical activity in reduction and the sensitivity. The optimal condition for the nucleophilic addition reaction was investigated and it was found that in NH4C1-NH3 buffer of pH 10.1, the linear range between the peak current and the concentration of lactose was 0.6-8.4 mg L-l, and the detection limits was 0.44 mg L- 1. The proposed method was applied to the ＇determination of lactose in food samples and satisfactory results were obtained.

Studies on Surface Properties and Cell Adhesion Properties of BSA Modified DBM Scaffold

As a scaffold material for bone tissue engineering, demineralized bone matrix(DBM) has such a limited ability to load cells and growth factors that the surface of the DBM scaffold was modified with bovine serum albumin(BSA) with different concentrations to improve the protein stmcture and physicochemical properties of the scaffold surface so as to enhance the adhesion of the cells.

Cells adhesion was observed inside the DBM seaffold before and after it had been modified, and the BSA modified scaffold had a good cell compatibility. Wlien the concentration of BSA was 20 mg/mL, the adhesion ability of the cells to modified scaffold was significantly increased, and the cell proliferation was facilitated.

Phthalonitrile Resins Derived from Vanillin: Synthesis,Curing Behavior,and Thermal Properties

Vanillin was used as sustainable source for phthalonitrile monomer synthesis, and allyl/propargyl ether moieties were introduced to improve the processability at the minimal cost of thermal properties. The synthesis route was optimized to minimize side-reactions and simplify post-processing, and the monomers were obtained in high purity and good yields. The curing behavior, mechanism, and processability of the monomers were studied, and the thermal properties of cured polymers were evaluated. Of the two monomers, the allyl ether-containing one exhibited a wide processing window of 185 °C, and was mainly cured into phthalocyanine and linear aliphatic structures through self-catalytic curing process. Also, the glass transition temperature was higher than 500 °C. In contrast, the propargyl ether-containing monomer could only be partially cured, and heat resistance was found to be compromised. Compared with traditional petroleum-based phthalonitrile resins, the biobased monomers could be cured without the addition of catalysts, and improvement in processability was achieved at no cost of thermal performances.
