Determination of oroxylin A,oroxylin A 7‐O‐glucuronide,and oroxylin A sodium sulfonate in beagle dogs by using UHPLC MS/MS Application in a pharmacokinetic study

Oroxylin A, obtained from the root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, is a flavonoid with antitumor and other pharmacological activities. Our previous studies showed for the first time that it is mainly metabolized to oroxylin A sodium sulfonate by sulfotransferase enzymes in beagle dogs. In this study, rapid, universal, selective, and robust ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry methods were established and fully validated to quantitatively detect oroxylin A, oroxylin A 7‐O‐glucuronide, and oroxylin A sodium sulfonate in beagle dog plasma. The quantitative analysis for oroxylin A sodium sulfonate was reported for the first time. Plasma samples were processed with acetonitrile, a universal protein precipitant. Gradient elution was performed to resolve carryover effects and to achieve separation efficiency and sufficient chromatographic retention. The linear relationships of oroxylin A, oroxylin A 7‐O‐glucuronide, and oroxylin A sodium sulfonate in plasma were in the range of 2.0–500.0, 5.0–500.0, and 1.881–940.5 ng/mL, respectively. The assay method was successfully applied to pharmacokinetic study. This is the first paper that reveals the pharmacokinetic profile of oroxylin A, oroxylin A 7‐O‐glucuronide, and oroxylin A sodium sulfonate after single‐dose intravenous and oral administration of Oroxylin A in beagle dogs.     

Theoretical research on optical properties and quantum efficiency of Ga1−xAlxN photocathodes

In order to design the optimal component structure of transmission-mode (t-mode) Ga_1−xAl_xN photocathode, the optical properties and quantum efficiency of Ga_1−xAl_xN photocathodes are simulated. Based on thin film principle, optical model of t-mode Ga_1−xAl_xN photocathodes is built. And the quantum efficiency formula is put forward. Results show that Ga_1−xAl_xN photocathodes can satisfy the need of detectors with “solar blind” property when the Al component is bigger than 0.375. There is an optimal thickness of Ga_1−xAl_xN layer to get highest quantum efficiency, and the optimal thickness is 0.3 μm. There is close relation between absorptivity and quantum efficiency, which is in good agreement with the “three-step” model. This work gives a reference for the experimental research on the Ga_1−xAl_xN photocathodes.

Fluorescent Metallic Nanoclusters: Electron Dynamics,Structure, and Applications

Atomically precise Au nanoclusters (NCs) have emerged as fascinating fluorescent nanomaterials and attracted considerable research interest in both fundamental research and practical applications. Due to enhanced quantum confinement, they possess extraordinary optical, electronic, and magnetic properties and therefore are very promising for a wide range of applications, including biosensing, bioimaging, catalysis, photonics, and molecular electronics. Remarkable progress has been reported for the fundamental understanding, synthesis techniques, and applications. In this review, the updated advances are summarized in Au NCs, including synthesis techniques, optical properties, and applications. In particular, we focus on the optical properties and electron dynamic processes. In addition, the progress in other noble metallic NCs is included in this Review, such as Ag, Cu, Pt, and alloy, which have attracted much research interest recently. Finally, an outlook is presented for such fascinating nanomaterials in both aspects of future fundamental research and potential applications.

Size-controllable gold-platinum alloy nanoparticles on nine functionalized ionic-liquid surfaces and their application as electrocatalysts for hydrogen peroxide reduction

A series of room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) containing different functional groups such as hydroxyl, nitrile, carboxyl, and thiol attached to imidazolium cations, combined with various anions such as chloride [Cl], tetrafluoroborate [BF(4)], hexafluorophosphate [PF(6)], and bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide [Tf(2)N], have been successfully synthesized. Dissolved in chitosan (Chi), the Chi/RTIL composites can be employed as flexible templates for the preparation of Au/Pt nanostructures. These Au/Pt nanostructures can be facilely deposited in situ on the surface of Chi/RTILs through electrodeposition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) results demonstrate that the alloy size is significantly dependent on the structure of the Chi/RTILs, with sizes ranging from 2.8 to 84.7 nm. Based upon the functionalized RTILs, nine Chi/RTIL-Au/Pt biosensors have been fabricated. First, the size-dependent electrochemistry of Chi/RTIL-Au/Pt was investigated using potassium ferricyanide as the probe. The reversible electron transfer of the Fe(CN)(6)(3-/4-) redox couple was realized for the nine biosensors, and the peak currents, as well as the peak-to-peak separations (ΔE(p)) and electron-transfer rates, differ greatly from each other because of the diversity of the RTILs. Further electrochemical research reveals that the functional groups of these RTILs exert an evident influence on the reduction behavior of H(2)O(2), which in turn illustrates that the electrocatalytic activity of Chi/RTIL-Au/Pt nanocomposites can be tuned by means of employing RTILs with different functional groups, and an appropriate combination of cations and anions may produce a higher activity. The facilitated electron transfer and the intrinsic catalytic activity of Au/Pt NPs provide a facile way to construct a third-generation H(2)O(2) biosensor with a high sensitivity, low detection limit, quick response time, and excellent selectivity.
