In this work, physical properties such as density, refractive index and viscosity of aqueous diethanolamine sarcosinate (DEA-SAR) solution were measured at different temperatures. The knowledge of physical properties is necessary for the process design and simulation of acid gas absorber plant. Various concentrations of aqueous DEA-SAR solutions (0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25 and 0.30) were investigated at temperature ranging from 298.15 to 333.15 K. The reported results showed an increment behavior in the physical properties with the increase in concentration isothermally, and a decreasing one with the rise in temperature of the solution at any given concentration. Empirical models were applied to correlate the experimental data of each physical property as a function of both concentration and temperature. A quantitative analysis of variation was carried out for estimating the significance of the physical property’s data. 相似文献
Anisotropic microarchitectures with different physicochemical properties have been developed as advanced materials for challenging industrial and biomedical applications including switchable displays, multiplexed biosensors and bioassays, spatially‐controlled drug delivery systems, and tissue engineering scaffolds. In this study, anisotropic biohybrid microparticles (MPs) spatio‐selectively conjugated with two different antibodies (Abs) are first developed for fluorescence‐based, multiplexed sensing of biological molecules. Poly(acrylamide‐co‐acrylic acid) is chemically modified with maleimide‐ or acetylene groups to introduce different targeting biological moieties into each compartment of anisotropic MPs. Modified polymer solutions containing two different fluorescent dyes are separately used for electrohydrodynamic co‐jetting with side‐by‐side needle geometry. The anisotropic MPs are chemically stabilized by thermal imidization, followed by bioconjugation of two different sets of polyclonal Abs with two individual compartments via maleimide‐thiol coupling reaction and Huisgen 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition. Finally, two compartments of the anisotropic biohybrid MPs are spatio‐selectively associated with the respective monoclonal Ab‐immobilized substrate in the presence of the antigen by sandwich‐type immunocomplex formation, resulting in their ordered orientation due to the spatio‐specific molecular interaction, as confirmed by confocal laser scanning microscopy. In conclusion, anisotropic biohybrid MPs capable of directional binding have great potential as a new fluorescence‐based multiplexing biosensing system.
Plants are under constant assault by biotic and abiotic agents. When an elicitor is prologued, an immense reprogramming of plant gene expression and defense responses are initiated, which could be a natural source for potential drug development and insertional mutagenesis. In this regard, differential expression analysis of a medicinal plant Moringa oleifera was performed for bioactive genes at seedling stage, using differential display-RT-PCR technique. Infected seedlings with a fungus Fusarium solani collected at different time intervals, showed a massive change in their gene expression profile. The data analysis revealed that at least 150 pathogen-induced and about 60 suppressed genes were differentially expressed at 8-h postinoculation of the biotic stress. Fifty-five selective genes were disunited and reamplified. Sequence analysis of these potential genes illustrated that these genes had properties of some induced peroxidase mRNA, cell proliferation, others were mitogen activated protein kinases, ribosomal protein genes, defense regulating genes, and a few also had structural properties. Further studies about the utility of these genes in plant metabolism could assist to develop improved transgenic breeds with enhanced value of infection tolerance not only of M. oleifera but of other cultivars also. 相似文献
Dual wavelength configurations normally employed to eradicate the effects of variable signal losses in intensity-dependent optical sensors are discussed. Particular attention is paid to the referencing capability of each configuration in relation to the major sources of measurement contamination. Illustrative examples of generic type sensor system implementations are provided and assessed to identify areas of any serious shortcomings. It is found that while full referencing can be achieved with both single and dual LED systems the maximum achievable performance will be dependent on the extent of differential spectral effects which can occur because of a finite wavelength separation between the two optical signals. 相似文献
This work investigated the synthesis of biphenyl‐3,3′,4,4′‐tetracarboxylic dianhydride and benzophenone‐3,3′,4,4′‐tetracarboxylic dianhydride derivatives ( 3a – e and 6a – e ) with different substituted phenols via Friedel‐Crafts acylation reaction in the presence of dilute sulfuric acid. Dianhydride derivatives with 3‐N,N′‐dimethylamino phenol ( 3d and 6d ) and resorcinol ( 3e and 6e ) have been found to be highly fluorescent. The structures of all newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by the chromatographic, spectral and elemental data. Electrochemical study was done to determine to band gap energy, LUMO and HOMO levels energy. Band gap and LUMO energy levels were found to be lowest in xanthene derivatives substituted with 3‐N,N′‐dimethylamino group having value 2.24 and 4.85 eV respectively. 相似文献
Widespread application of dyes and disposal of their untreated effluents into water bodies adversely affect the ecosystem due to their complex aromatic structures and persistent nature. The present study aims to utilize the cotton stalks biochar (CSB) and its composite with zinc oxide nanoparticles (CSB/ZnONPs) to evaluate for the decontamination their batch scale potential of Congo red dye from wastewater. The characterization of CSB and CSB/ZnONPs was performed with Fourier-transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) and point of zero charge (PZC) to get insight of their potential for the decontamination of CR. The effects of initial CR concentration (25–500 mg/L), dosage of CSB and CSB/ZnONPs (0.5–2 g/L), solution pH (2–10) and contact time (0–180 min) were evaluated on CR removal at temperature (25 ± 1.5 °C). The results disclosed that CSB/ZnONPs showed excellent adsorption potential (556.6 mg/g) in comparison with CSB (250 mg/g) and most of the other adsorbents previously studies in the literature. The equilibrium experimental data were equally explained with Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models (R2 > 0.98) while kinetic data demonstrated the best fit with pseudo second order model. The CSB/ZnONPs composite exhibited excellent reusability (89.65%) after five adsorption/desorption cycles for the sequestration of CR from contaminated systems. The present study demonstrated that metallic nanocomposite of CSB (CSB/ZnONPs) is an excellent candidate for the cost effective and environment friendly decontamination of CR from industrial wastewater and is suggested to be considered for the decontamination of other pollutants from the wastewater. 相似文献
