Fluorescence and absorption of polystyrene exposed to UV laser radiation

We show that when polystyrene is exposed (for 15–60 sec) to a UV laser light beam (λ = 248 nm), its absorption and luminescent properties change significantly. In the irradiated polymer, optical centers are formed with absorption bands in the 280–460 nm region and fluorescence bands in the 330–520 nm region. We have established the chemical structure of the optical centers for fluorescence of polystyrene. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 73, No. 1, pp. 54–58, January–February, 2006.     

均苯三甲酸铕及铕镧配合物的合成及荧光性质

以均苯三甲酸为配体,水热条件下合成了均苯三甲酸铕及铕镧系列发光配合物La_xEu_1-x(BTC)·nH₂O(x=0,0.1,0.3,0.5,0.7,0.9),通过元素分析及化学滴定法测定了配合物的组成。用红外光谱对其进行了表征,确定了该系列配合物的组成为La_xEu_1-x(BTC)·nH₂O。研究了系列配合物的荧光性质,荧光光谱表明:该类配合物均能发出强的铕离子的特征荧光,并且镧元素的掺入能增强铕配合物的发光强度,但发射峰的位置基本上没有变化;其中⁵D₀→⁷F₁和⁵D₀→⁷F₂的跃迁发射较强,且均劈裂为两个峰(587,593nm)和(611,618nm),这是由于铕离子所处的配位环境引起的。

TOF-SIMS imaging of chlorhexidine-digluconate transport in frozen hydrated biofilms of the fungus Candida albicans

The diffusion of the anti-microbial chlorhexidine digluconate (CHG) has been studied in C. albicans biofilms by time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS). C. albicans has been shown to become resistant to common anti-microbial agents, including CHG, when growing as a biofilm. Mass transport resistance within biofilms has commonly been suggested as a resistance mechanism, but measurement of transport for most anti-microbial agents in biofilms has proven extremely difficult because of the heterogeneity of the biofilms and the difficulty in detecting these agents within an intact biofilm. In this study, TOF-SIMS has been used to study the transport of CHG and glucose in a frozen hydrated biofilm. The TOF-SIMS images reveal a progression of CHG from the top of the biofilm to its base with time. Images suggest that there are channels within the biofilm and show preferential binding of CHG to cellular components of the biofilm. Additionally, both living and dead cells can be identified in the TOF-SIMS images by the sequestration of K⁺ and the presence of cell markers. This study demonstrates that TOF-SIMS has the unique potential to simultaneously observe the presence of an antimicrobial agent, concentration of nutrients, and the viability of the cell population.

全内反射荧光显微术应用于单分子荧光的纵向成像

利用这种显微术中激发场的纵向强度呈指数衰减的分布特性，测得的荧光强 度将强烈依赖渗透深度（强度衰减到1/e时的距离），从而快速直接的确定单分子荧光 团间的纵向间隔、每个荧光团的纵向绝对位置和荧光团的半径大小，即实现荧光分子三维分 布的重构.在整个重构的过程中，只需要改变一次入射角的大小，即只需探测两幅荧光分子 的全内反射成像. 关键词： 全内反射荧光显微术 纵向重构     

Photochemical attachment of polymers on planar surfaces with a covalently anchored monolayer of a novel naphthyl ketone photochemical radical generator

A monolayer of covalently anchored, novel, binaphthyl ketone is used as a surface‐confined photochemical radical generator (PRG) for anchoring a variety of polymers to silicon surfaces. The precursor PRG is synthesized by the application of a facile and novel method for the oxidation of sterically hindered benzylic hydrocarbons to carbonyl compounds. Oxidation was carried out with a stoichiometric amount of potassium peroxydisulfate, in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper sulfate in an acetonitrile/water mixture. The PRG synthesized is characterized by ¹H NMR, UV, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). The covalently attached monolayers are characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ellipsometry, and water contact angle measurements. The method developed is applicable to the preparation of a monolayer of a variety of polymers on a wide range of substrates carrying surface hydroxyl groups. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
