Physicochemical aspects of microbial adhesion — Influence of antibody adsorption on the deposition ofStreptococcus sobrinus in a parallel-plate flow chamber

Deposition of the oral bacteriumStreptococcus sobrinus HG977 onto glass (water contact angle 0°) and onto FEP-Teflon (fluoroethylenepropylene; water contact angle 110°) was studied in a parallel-plate flow chamber in the presence and absence of polyclonal antibodies (pAb) and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) adsorbed onto the cells. The zeta potentials of the bacteria ranged from −7.1 to −8.5 mV at pH 6.8 and were not affected by the presence of pAb or mAbs. Hydrophobicity (by water contact angles) increased from 30° (no antibodies) to 88° in the presence of pAb adsorbed onto the bacterial cell surface. The untreatedS. sobrinus had a greater tendency to adhere to glass (44.5 × 10⁶ cm⁻²) than to FEP-Teflon (18.3 × 10⁶ cm⁻²), in accordance with thermodynamic modelling. After preincubation ofS. sobrinus with pAb, its clear preference for adhesion to glass disappeared as expected from its increased hydrophobicity. Although forS. sobrinus preincubated with OMVU10 no difference was found in hydrophobicity in comparison to the untreated bacteria, the number of bacteria adhering to glass decreased to 10.2 ¢ 10⁶ cm⁻². Formation of bacterial aggregates was found whenS. sobrinus, preincubated with pAb or OMVU10, adhered to glass and FEP. This was also observed when untreated bacteria adhered to glass coated with OMVU10, or to FEP coaled with OMVU10 or pAb. Adhesion in these experiments is therefore thought to occur via near-neighbour collection induced by the presence of pAb or mAbs. Low numbers of bacteria were removed from glass after draining the flow cell, whereas high numbers of untreated bacteria and bacteria preincubated with OMVU10 were removed from FEP.S. sobrinus cells preincubated with pAb were not removed but piled up. It was concluded that the adhesion of untreatedS. sobrinus andS. sobrinus preincubated with pAb is in accordance with thermodynamic modelling, based on the overall wettability of the cell surfaces, whereas the adhesion ofS. sobrinus preincubated with OMVU10 may be through localized interactions, not expressed in overall surface properties.     

Studying dispersoid systems

Summary Measurements of energy transformation in mitochondria are done on a capillary differential titration calorimeter CTD2156. It is important to mention that a sediment is quickly formed by the mitochondria suspension without mixing by means of a vibrating needle. During the measurements, the vibrating needle is located inside the working volume of the chamber. The design of the calorimeter is substantiated theoretically. It provides a new mode of a reagent input in the measuring volume of the calorimetric chambers. It expands the spectrum of tasks that can be solved using this instrument. In the capillary calorimeter the calorimetric chambers unit is simple and small in size. These advantages of capillary chambers provide an opportunity to unite 20 capillary calorimetric chambers in one calorimetric block. It allows designing a multi-channel titration calorimeter. There are obvious advantages of such a calorimeter over other instruments in screening researches and in researches of objects maintaining stability only for a short time.     

A new approach for the sequential injection spectrophotometric determination of the total antioxidant activity

A sequential injection system based on the ABTS (2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic-acid) methodology was developed. The proposed method, incorporating a mixing chamber in the side port of the selection valve, was evaluated to measure the total antioxidant activity of several beverages and foods.The ABTS⁺ is generated by oxidation of ABTS with potassium persulfate and is reduced in presence of hydrogen-donating antioxidants converting into a colourless product. The applicability of the developed method was tested by measurement of the antioxidant activity of pure compounds as well as by analysing complex food and beverage samples. The antioxidant activity was presented as l(+) ascorbic acid equivalence. The values obtained by this methodology were not significantly different from the results obtained by the original spectrophotometric ABTS assay. For most of the studied antioxidants, antioxidant activity varied with pH and dilution. The proposed SIA system is suitable for screening direct or diluted total antioxidant activity of pure compounds or food samples.     

Development of the continuously variable volume reactor for flow injection analysis: Part 1. Design, capabilities and testing

A new apparatus for mixing sample and reagent in flow injection analysis (FIA) is described. The continuously variable volume reactor (CVVR) replaces the conventional mixing coil in a flow injection (FI) manifold to provide mixing and dilution. A linear actuator motor allows control of the chamber volume via LabVIEW software. The chamber volume can be incremented in steps of 1 μl over the range 68-1704 μl. In addition, the chamber has an integral variable-speed stirring unit that is also under computer control. Experiments were performed to evaluate the dispersion characteristics of this new device, evaluate the volume reproducibility, and understand the mixing characteristics. Use of the chamber is shown in the determination of iron(II) in pond water, and in NIST SRM 1643d with excellent results and a detection limit of 3.7 μg/l iron(II). Advantages of the CVVR and future research activities using the device are discussed.

真空冷却过程中实验条件对真空冷却速率的影响

以熟肉为实验材料,对实验条件对真空冷却速率的影响进行了理论分析和实验研究。实验结果表明:真空室有效容积越小、真空泵抽速越高,则真空冷却时间就会越短;冷阱温度对真空冷却速率有着明显的影响;当真空室内的最终压力在0.4～0.61kPa变化时,熟肉的表面温度一直在0℃以上,其真空冷却的时间随着真空室内压力的升高而增加。而真空室内的最终压力在0.3kPa左右时,熟肉的表面温度在真空冷却过程会低于0℃。     

LC–MS/MS determination and interaction of the main components from the traditional Chinese drug pair Danshen–Sanqi based on rat intestinal absorption

The Chinese drug pair Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza)–Sanqi (Panax ginseng) has been widely used for centuries treating various cardiovascular disorders, among which salvianlic acid B (SAB), ginsenoside Rg₁ (GRg₁), ginsenoside Rb₁ (GRb₁) and notoginsenoside R₁ (NGR₁) were identified as the major components. The present study focused on the interaction between these components based on investigating their intestinal absorption using the Ussing chamber technique. The concentrations of SAB, GRg₁, GRb1 and NGR₁ in the intestinal perfusate were determined by LC–MS/MS method, followed by Q (accumulative quantity) and P_app (apparent permeability). The results showed that all these four main components displayed very low permeabilities, which implied their poor absorption in the rat intestine. The intestinal absorption level of SAB displayed regioselectivity: duodenum < jejunum < ileum. However, there was no significant difference in the absorption of GRg₁ and GRb₁ in the different segments. The Q and P_app values of the four main components were obviously increased in jejunum when co‐administrating Danshen extract with Sanqi extract. In conclusion, compatibility of Danshen and Sanqi could remarkably improve the intestinal absorption level of the main components in the pair. To some extent, this might explain the nature of the compatibility mechanisms of composite formulae in TCMs.
