Separation of fluorescent 1,N6 ethenoderivatives of diadenosine polyphosphates and their enzymatic degradation products by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography

Summary The retention, selectivity and elution order of fluorescent 1,N⁶-etheno derivatives of diadenosine polyphosphates and their enzymatic degradation products on octadecyl and phenyl-bonded silica columns have been studied as a function of mobile phase pH, ionic strength and organic modifier content. Good separations of the compounds of interest were achieved using mobile phases of around 0.1M potassium phosphate buffers at neutral pH containing approximately 10% methanol or 4% acetonitrile for C₁₈ columns and 5% methanol or 1.5% acetonitrile for phenyl columns. The data obtained were used to establish isocratic assays for diadenosine polyphosphate cleaving activities from chromaffin cells using Di(1,N⁶-ethenoadenosine) polyphosphates as fluorogenic substrate analogues followed by fluorescence detection.     

5-Hydroxytryptamino-induced calcium sparks in cultured rat stomach fundus smooth muscle cells

With the imaging fluorescence probe of Ca2+ (fluo-3) and a laser scanning confocal micro-scope, the spontaneous localized calcium release event was first discovered in resting rat cardiac myocytes by Cheng[1] in 1993. A mathematical simulation is developed with computer in order to reveal the effect, which is immediately suggested that these events are likely to reflect the local-ized release of Ca2+ from a small cluster of ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ release channels in sar-coplasmic reticulum …

Effect of polarization on the electrode behavior and microstructure of (La,Sr)MnO<Subscript>3</Subscript> electrodes of solid oxide fuel cells

The electrode behavior and microstructure of freshly prepared (La_0.8Sr_0.2)_0.9MnO₃ (LSM) electrodes were investigated under various polarization conditions. The original, large agglomerates in freshly prepared LSM electrodes were broken down into sphere-shaped grains when exposed to cathodic or anodic current passage of 200 mA cm^–2 at 800 °C in air for 3 h. Microstructural changes under cathodic polarization could be related to the pronounced diffusion and migration of oxygen vacancies and Mn ions on the LSM surface and lattice expansion, while lattice shrinkage under oxidation conditions most likely contributes to the structural changes under anodic polarization. Such morphological changes were irreversible and were found to be beneficial to the performance of freshly prepared LSM electrodes. Freshly prepared LSM electrodes behaved very differently with respect to the cathodic and anodic current passage treatment.     

Biofuel cell anode based on the Gluconobacter oxydans bacteria cells and 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol as an electron transport mediator

A basic scheme of the use of the Gluconobacter oxydans bacteria cells as a biocatalyst at an anode of a biofuel cell with air-based cathode is raised up. The anode and cathode of the cell are made of graphite; 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol serves as an electron transport mediator; and glucose is the substrate to be oxidized. The open-circuit voltage is 55 mV, for the bacteria cell, the mediator, and glucose concentrations of 3 mg/ml (raw weight), 34 mM, and 10 mM, respectively. The voltage and current of the biofuel cell loaded with an external resistance of 10 kohm are 5.6 mV and 0.56 mA. The cell’s internal resistance is 88 kohm.     

A Procedure for Transforming Impedance Spectra for the Determination of Mechanism of Electrochemical Reactions

Transformation of impedance spectra into relaxation time spectra (RTS) is used for determining contributions of individual processes of the oxygen electroreduction reaction (OER) to the polarization resistance of the electrochemical cell. The transformation technique involves the solution of the convolution equation found with the aid of a modified Van Cittert iteration algorithm checked on model impedance spectra. The technique, when used to analyze impedance spectra of electrochemical cells air|Pt|YSZ|YSZ + Pt|air, shows that the conversion of a globular structure of the YSZ + Pt cermet layer to a columnar one is accompanied by a change of peak amplitudes in RTS. The revealed RTS dynamics when heated to 750°C is compared with peculiarities of individual processes in OER.     

碳纳米管添加剂对质子交换膜燃料电池低铂载量膜电极性能的影响研究

以碳纳米管（CNT）作为低铂载量膜电极（CCM）催化层（0.1 mg_Pt·cm^-2）添加剂，研究了CNT的添加方式对催化层微观结构以及膜电极性能的影响.结果表明，与常规低铂载量催化层相比，在其表面喷涂一层CNT或将CNT均匀分散到Pt/C催化层中均有利于提升低铂载量膜电极的输出性能，在70℃和100%相对湿度条件下最高输出功率比常规低铂载量膜电极的0.522 W·cm^-2分别提升了22.4%和60.0%，并且均匀分散添加方式优于分层添加方式.其原因在于分层添加CNT后改善了低铂催化层和气体扩散层之间的接触界面，降低了催化层与扩散层间的接触电阻，而均匀分散添加方式除了可降低界面接触电阻外，还显著改善了低铂催化层中的气体传输，大幅提升了Pt催化剂的利用效率，使得膜电极电化学反应电阻明显降低.进一步对均匀分散添加方式中CNT的载量进行优化，表明CNT添加量为37.5 μg·cm^-2时电池输出性能最佳，70℃和100%相对湿度条件下的最大输出功率达到0.91 W·cm^-2.本研究工作表明，将CNT均匀分散添加到催化层中是一种有效提升低铂载量膜电极性能的方法.
