Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is an indomitable biomaterial of utmost usage in different technological areas. Previously, the BNC production has been reported in the simplified bioreactors. Thus, pioneering bioreactor-assisted strategies are desirable for the commendable BNC production. Advanced bioreactors must be corroborated along with different bacterial strains to obtain creditable BNC yield. This study deals with BNC production in rotary disc bioreactor (RDBR) using Gluconacetobacter xylinus NCIM 2526 strain. RDBR-based production of BNC provided 189?±?14 gL?1 of wet BNC, i.e., equivalent to 6.6?±?0.3 gL?1 dry BNC yield in 10 days. However, in static cultivation mode, 56?±?12 gL?1 wet weight of BNC, corresponding to 2.4?±?0.4 gL?1 dry weight, was produced. Thus, BNC production was approximately 2.75 folds higher in RDBR than statically produced BNC from the same volume of the media. The sugar to BNC conversion yield (12.2?±?0.8%) was doubled in RDBR-based production as compared to static BNC production (6.2?±?1.4%) with efficient sugar consumption (90.0?±?3.3%). The maximum amount of BNC was produced at 7 RPM and pH 6. RDBR-based BNC showed a more hydrophilic nature than statically produced BNC. The RDBR might be appropriate for large-scale BNC production, especially for wet-end applications, as an ample amount of BNC can be produced from a single fermentation process. These BNC pellicles might have the potential for biomedical applications like wound dressings, biofacial masks, hydrogels, and tissue engineering scaffolds.
We have theoretically investigated the magnetic properties of heteroallene (>C=C=X−) and heterocumulene (>C=C=C=X−) based tert-butyl nitroxide diradicals (X is P/As). Calculation of magnetic exchange coupling constant (J) shows ferromagnetic interaction in heteroallene based diradicals. Whereas, in heterocumulene based diradicals, tuning of J value from antiferro- to ferro-magnetic state is observed from Z- to E- isomer. Delocalization of spin density from radical site to the coupler (in planar arrangement) is observed in spin distribution analysis which is also advocated by molecular orbital analysis. The typical feature of tert-butyl nitroxide radical creates spin delocalization along with spin polarization within the coupler. The J values of all the diradicals strongly depend on the dihedral angle between radical center and coupler. Magneto-structural correlation shows that the change in dihedral angle tunes the magnetic property for both the Z- and E- isomers of heterocumulenes depending on the spin accumulation on two nearby magnetic centers. The extent of spin delocalization and conformation of spin centers on the molecular axis are important for the different J values observed in our designed systems. 相似文献
The effect of an external electric field on the magnetic anisotropy of a single‐molecule magnet has been investigated, for the first time, with the help of DFT. The application of an electric field can alter the magnetic anisotropy from “easy‐plane” to “easy‐axis” type. Excitation analysis performed through time‐dependent DFT predicts that the external electric field facilitates metal to π‐acceptor ligand charge transfer, leading to uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and concomitant spin Hall effect in a single molecule. 相似文献
According to the well-accepted mechanism, methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) involves Ni-mediated thiolate-to-disulfide conversion that sustains its catalytic cycle of methane formation in the energy saving pathways of methanotrophic microbes. Model complexes that illustrate Ni-ion mediated reversible thiolate/disulfide transformation are unknown. In this paper we report the synthesis, crystal structure, spectroscopic properties and redox interconversions of a set of NiII complexes comprising a tridentate N2S donor thiol and its analogous N4S2 donor disulfide ligands. These complexes demonstrate reversible NiII-thiolate/NiII-disulfide (both bound and unbound disulfide-S to NiII) transformations via thiyl and disulfide monoradical anions that resemble a primary step of MCR's catalytic cycle. 相似文献
Using quasi-steady-state and time-resolved high-field impedance techniques, the frequency-dependent dielectric permittivity of poly(vinylacetate) has been studied at electric field amplitudes as high as 400 kV/cm. The relative changes of the dielectric loss depend quadratically on the field amplitude and reach about 1 %. The magnitude and frequency-dependence of this non-linear dielectric effect and its time evolution after applying the high field are consistent with energy absorption from the field being at the source of the non-linear behavior. Based upon a phenomenological model of heterogeneous dynamics at isothermal conditions, the observed changes can be explained by locally increased configurational temperatures and the resulting accelerated dynamics. 相似文献
The quasi-diamagnetism effect that manifests itself in the negative magnetic susceptibility observed in weak magnetic fields
during cooling of samples below some critical temperature has been revealed in Ni48Co2Mn35In15 Heusler alloys. The effect has been attributed to a strong nonequilibrium of the system due to the presence of magnetic and
structural disorders and exchange anisotropy. 相似文献
The decay of mass separated90Rb has been studied usingβ,γ and conversion electron spectrometers in single and coincidence modes. The half-lives of the ground state and the isomeric level have been confirmed to be 162± 3 and 258±4 s, respectively. Theγ-rays from the decays of ground state and metastable state have been identified by measuring the decay of individual photopeaks using Ge(Li) detectors. The multipolarity of the 106.6 keV isomeric transition has been determined to beM3. Separate decay schemes of the ground and metastable states are presented. The levels of90Sr are discussed in terms of the available experimental and theoretical information.
