Thin layer distillation for matrix isolation in flow analysis

Analyte transfer from the matrix in a thin layer distillation (TLD) cell and its subsequent measurement were investigated in a flow injection configuration. We designed the cell such that the donor and acceptor streams flowed in parallel channels separated by a thin dividing wall. The matrix transfer process involved room-temperature distillation of the analyte into the headspace of the TLD cell and its subsequent condensation/uptake by a concurrently flowing acceptor stream. There are no membranes; hence there are no membrane-related problems. The TLD system design was optimized with respect to its dimensions and operational parameters. Throughput and sensitivity were compared with a conventional pervaporation flow injection (PFI) system for ammonia and five different amines. For the higher molecular mass amines, the TLD approach provided comparable or superior performance. The TLD technique should be an attractive approach for online analysis of volatile chemical species in ‘dirty’ samples, especially for volatile analytes of higher molecular mass.     

The intermolecular potential function of Smith–Thakkar type for C60

The intermolecular potential function of Smith–Thakkar type for C₆₀ has been proposed, and its expression is as follows

The unit of u(r) is J/mol, r is the distance between two C₆₀ molecules center and the unit is nm. Some properties of C₆₀ in the gas and crystal have been studied using the interaction potential of Smith–Thakkar type, such as stability of C₆₀ crystals, virial coefficient and lattice dynamics.

High-resolution Hadamard transform microscope fluorescence imaging: quantifying the DNA content in single cells

This study presents a novel miniaturized Hadamard transform fluorescence imaging microscope, by combining a conventional fluorescence microscope with Hadamard transform multiplexing encoding using a one-dimensional movable mask to realize spatial resolution and a linear CCD for multichannel detection. The microscope can provide high-resolution automatically-generated 0–255 gray level HT images for morphological analysis and visualization of a single cell, and normalized HT images for cellular quantitative measurements. The microscopes imaging capability was applied to measure the DNA content in human lymphocyte, chicken erythrocyte and eel erythrocyte, and a comparative study was performed. The results show that the calibrated DNA content in a chicken erythrocyte is 2.32 pg when human lymphocyte is used as the standard, and eel erythrocyte may be a potentially reliable and novel standard for determining DNA contents in other species because it has a stable DNA value of 2.06 pg, with a CV of 4.3% when 20 eel erythrocytes are measured. The results also demonstrate that the HT imaging microscope should be valuable in the fields of medicine and cell biology.

Parameterization of OPLS-AA force field for the conformational analysis of macrocyclic polyketides

The parameters for the OPLS-AA potential energy function have been extended to include some functional groups that are present in macrocyclic polyketides. Existing OPLS-AA torsional parameters for alkanes, alcohols, ethers, hemiacetals, esters, and ketoamides were improved based on MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ and MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ calculations. Nonbonded parameters for the sp(3) carbon and oxygen atoms were refined using Monte Carlo simulations of bulk liquids. The resulting force field predicts conformer energies and torsional barriers of alkanes, alcohols, ethers, and hemiacetals with an overall RMS deviation of 0.40 kcal/mol as compared to reference data. Densities of 19 bulk liquids are predicted with an average error of 1.1%, and heats of vaporization are reproduced within 2.4% of experimental values. The force field was used to perform conformational analysis of smaller analogs of the macrocyclic polyketide drug FK506. Structures that adopted low-energy conformations similar to that of bound FK506 were identified. The results show that a linker of four ketide units constitutes the shortest effector domain that allows binding of the ketide drugs to FKBP proteins. It is proposed that the exact chemical makeup of the effector domain has little influence on the conformational preference of tetraketides.
