一种检测CO32-比率荧光探针的合成及其在细胞成像中的应用

本文设计开发了一种以2,6-二甲酰基对甲苯酚为母体的新型荧光探针HMI,可用于高效识别EtOH-H₂O (8/2, v/v, HEPES 10 mM, pH =7.4)体系中的CO_3^2-。HMI在660 nm处显示发射带,加入CO_3^2-后,在600 nm的等吸收点激发时,原来在660 nm处的荧光淬灭,而以540 nm为中心的新发射带荧光显着增加,为比率型荧光探针。HMI对CO_3^2-表现出高选择性且具有较强的抗干扰能力。此外,荧光探针HMI对CO_3^2-荧光响应的检测限较低,可达到3.938×10^_-6 M。更具有意义的是,HMI探针对CO_3^2-的检测能够在实际水样中起到很好的应用,而且细胞成像研究表明,HMI可用于活体MCF-7细胞中CO_3^2-的成像。     

铜修饰微电极阵列硝酸根检测（英文）

许多水域含有过量的硝酸根,会诱发许多问题。采用微机电系统工艺,制备出一种基于铂叉指微电极阵列的硝酸根离子(NO-3)检测微传感电极。通过电化学恒电位沉积法在铂叉指微电极阵列上修饰,得到多孔、簇状铜敏感膜。采用线性扫描伏安电化学检测方法,考察该微传感电极对NO-3的响应性能,在0~2mg/L浓度范围内,线性度为0.999,灵敏度为-3.15μA·L·mg-1。在相同沉积修饰条件下,叉指微电极比同等敏感面积(1mm2)的圆盘微电极表现出更强的催化活性和更高的灵敏度,分析其原因,认为主要是叉指微电极的结构和边缘效应造成的。     

Superthermostability of nanoscale TIC-reinforced copper alloys manufactured by a two-step ball-milling process

A Cu-TiC alloy, with nanoscale TiC particles highly dispersed in the submicron-grained Cu matrix, was manufactured by a self-developed two-step ball-milling process on Cu, Ti and C powders. The thermostability of the composite was evaluated by high-temperature isothermal annealing treatments, with temperatures ranging from 727 to 1273 K. The semicoherent nanoscale TiC particles with Cu matrix, mainly located along the grain boundaries, were found to exhibit the promising trait of blocking grain boundary migrations, which leads to a super-stabilized microstructures up to approximately the melting point of copper (1223 K). Furthermore, the Cu-TiC alloys after annealing at 1323 K showed a slight decrease in Vickers hardness as well as the duplex microstructure due to selective grain growth, which were discussed in terms of hardness contributions from various mechanisms.     

Electrochemical determination of cadmium and lead based on the joint enhancement effects of SBA-16 and iodide

Mesoporous SBA-16 was synthesized using tetraethoxysilane as silicon source and a ternary system consisting of surfactant F127, water and butanol. Owing to the excellent properties of SBA-16 such as lager surface area and strong accumulation ability, the stripping peak current of Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ remarkably increases at the SBA-16 modified carbon paste electrode. Moreover, the peak current of Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ further enhances after the addition of I^?. Under the joint enhancement effects of SBA-16 and I^?, the detection sensitivity of Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ is greatly improved. The influences of concentration of I^?, amount of SBA-16, accumulation potential and time were investigated. As a result, a new electrochemical method with high sensitivity was developed for the simultaneous determination of Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺. The limit of detection is 0.6 nM for Cd²⁺ and 1 nM for Pb²⁺. It was used to determine Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ in waste water sample, and the results consisted with the values that obtained by atomic absorption spectrometry.     

Miscibility and crystallization behaviors of stereocomplex-type poly(l- and d-lactide)/poly(methyl methacrylate) blends

Stereocomplex-poly(l- and d-lactide) (sc-PLA) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends were prepared by solution blending at PMMA loadings from 20 to 80 mass%. The miscibility and crystallization behaviors of the blends have been studied in detail by differential scanning calorimeter. The single-glass transition temperatures (T _g) of the blends demonstrated that the obtained system was miscible in the amorphous state. It was observed that the crystallization peak temperature of sc-PLA/PMMA blends was marginally lower than that of neat sc-PLA at various cooling rates, indicating the dilution effect of PMMA on the sc-PLA component to restrain the overall crystallization process. In the study of isothermal crystallization kinetics, the reciprocal value of crystallization peak time ( \( t_{\text{p}}^{ - 1} \) ) decreased with increasing PMMA content, indicating that the addition of non-crystalline PMMA inhibited the isothermal crystallization of sc-PLA at an identical crystallization temperature (T _c). Moreover, the negative value of Flory–Huggins interaction parameter (χ ₁₂ = ?0.16) of the blend further indicated that sc-PLA and PMMA formed miscible blends.     

Aliphatic Organoimido Derivatives of Polyoxometalates Containing a Bioactive Ligand

A series of aliphatic organoimido derivatives of hexamolybdate based on amantadine, namely (nBu₄N)₂[Mo₆O₁₈(?NC₁₀H₁₅)] ( 1 ), (nBu₄N)₂ {cis‐[Mo₆O₁₇(?NC₁₀H₁₅)₂]} ( 2 ), (nBu₄N)₂{trans‐[Mo₆O₁₇(?NC₁₀H₁₅)₂]} ( 3 ), and (nBu₄N)₂[Mo₆O₁₆(?NC₁₀H₁₅)₃] ( 4 ), was synthesized in reasonable yield by dehydration with N,N′‐dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC). They were characterized by IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis, ESI mass spectrometry, and single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis. The spectral and structural similarities and differences between monosubstituted, cis‐disubstituted, and trans‐disubstituted organoimido derivatives were elucidated and may provide guidance for related work on organoimido‐functionalized Lindqvist‐type polyoxometalates. In addition, trans‐disubstituted and polysubstituted derivatives containing aliphatic organoimido ligands have not yet been reported, and the crystal structure of the trans isomer may lead us to a deeper understanding of disubstituted derivatives. Furthermore, proliferation and morphology of MCF‐7 cells were studied with compound 1 . The present results show that the DCC‐dehydrating protocol could be an efficient approach to covalently graft bioactive ligands such as amantadine onto POMs and enhance their application in clinical cancer treatment.     

Preparation of P(MBA‐co‐MAA)/Zr(OH)4/P(EGDMA‐co‐MAA)/TiO2 Tetra‐layer Hybrid Microspheres and the Corresponding ZrO2/TiO2 Double‐shelled Hollow Microspheres

Double‐shelled zirconia/titania (ZrO₂/TiO₂) hollow microspheres were prepared by the selective removal of the polymer components via the calcination of the corresponding tetra‐layer poly(N,N′‐methylenebisacryl amide‐co‐methacrylic acid) (P(MBA‐co‐MAA))/Zr(OH)₄/poly(ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate‐co‐methacrylic acid) (P(EGDMA‐co‐MAA))/TiO₂ hybrid microspheres. These tetra‐layer microspheres were synthesized by the combination of the distillation copolymerization of N,N(‐methylenebisacryl amide‐co‐methacrylic acid (MBA) or ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) crosslinker and methacrylic acid (MAA) for the preparation of polymer core and third‐layer as well as the controlled sol‐gel hydrolysis of inorganic precursors for the construction of zirconium hydroxide (Zr(OH)₄) and titania (TiO₂) layers. The thicknesses of zirconia and titania shell‐layers were conveniently controlled via varying the feed of zirconium n‐butoxide (Zr(OBu)₄) and titanium tetrabutoxide (TBOT) during the sol‐gel hydrolysis, while the sizes of polymer layers were tuned through a multi‐stage distillation precipitation copolymerization. The structure and morphology of the resultant microspheres were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X‐ray diffractometer (XRD), X‐ray photoelectronic spectroscopy (XPS), and thermogrametric analysis (TGA).     

Catalytic epoxidation of alkenes over supported manganese oxide with hydrogen peroxide: effect of supports and manganese loading

Manganese oxides supported on γ-Al₂O₃, amorphous SiO₂, MCM-41, and TiO₂ prepared by an impregnation method were used as heterogeneous catalysts for epoxidation of alkenes with 30 % H₂O₂ in the presence of NaHCO₃ aqueous solution. The effect of support and manganese loading on their activity was studied. The 1.3-MnO _x /γ-Al₂O₃ exhibited superior epoxidazing activity of styrene, compared with other supported MnO _x . Hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction, UV–vis and ESR analyses suggested that Mn²⁺ (catalytic activity species) dominated in 1.3 % MnO _x /γ-Al₂O₃ due to a strong interaction between MnO _x and γ-Al₂O₃. Recycling studies showed the catalyst was a heterogeneous one and retained its activity after recycling four times.     

Two-Coordinate Copper(I)/NHC Complexes: Dual Emission Properties and Ultralong Room-Temperature Phosphorescence

As a kind of photoluminescent material, Cu^I complexes have many advantages such as adjustable emission, variable structures, and low cost, attracting attention in many fields. In this work, two novel two-coordinate Cu^I-N-heterocyclic carbene complexes were synthesized, and they exhibit unique dual emission properties, fluorescence and phosphorescence. The crystal structure, packing mode, and photophysical properties under different conditions were systematically studied, proving the emissive mechanism to be the locally excited state of the carbazole group. Based on this mechanism, ultralong room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) with a lifetime of 140 ms is achieved by selective deuteration of the carbazole group. These results deepen the understanding of the luminescence mechanism and design strategy for two-coordinate Cu^I complexes, and prove their potential in applications as ultralong RTP materials.
