Study on the Interaction Between Bovine Serum Albumin and Potassium Perfluoro Octane Sulfonate

The interactions between potassium perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. The association constants between PFOS and BSA were obtained by fluorescence enhancing and fluorescence quenching respectively. Furthermore, fluorescence quenching was studied at different temperatures, and the binding constant was also determined by the method of fluorescence quenching. According to the thermodynamic parameters, the main binding force could be judged. The experimental results revealed that BSA and PFOS had strong interactions. The mechanism of quenching belonged to dynamic quenching and the main sort of binding force was hydrophobic force. IR-spectra proved the interaction changed the conformation of BSA.     

In situ self-assembly synthesis of gold nanoparticle arrays on polystyrene microspheres and their surface plasmon resonance

Gold (Au) nanoparticle arrays with tunable morphology and optical characteristics were synthesized by in-situ self-assembly process that occurred on the surface of aniline-modified polystyrene (PS) microspheres. The method can be used to control the growth of both single and aggregated Au nanoparticle arrays on PS microsphere surface. This method could also be adapted for synthesis of other noble metals hybrid materials, which opens exciting opportunities for their practical applications.     

纳米CoSe修饰氮掺杂多孔碳的可控制备及其锂硫电池多硫化物的催化转化效应

锂硫电池中较差的循环稳定性和倍率性能是实现锂硫电池商业化的技术障碍,其主要原因之一是多硫化物在硫电极内的电化学转化动力学较为缓慢。为此,我们以ZIF-9为前驱体,采用先碳化,再酸化刻蚀,最后硒化的方法合成了含少量催化剂的CoSe修饰氮掺杂多孔碳(CoSe/NC)电极材料,以期提高硫电极内多硫化物的电化学转化动力学性能,并通过流动液相三电极体系对该材料进行电化学动力学表征。结果显示,相较于对比材料,CoSe/NC能够加快多硫化物的氧化还原反应速率,在 0.2mA·cm^-2电流密度下,多硫化物氧化还原反应在CoSe/NC电极上有最小的反应过电位;同时,在0.1 V过电位下,各氧化还原反应也有最大的响应电流。因此,将 CoSe/NC作为硫宿主材料组装电池展现了优异的电化学性能：在 1C(1C=1 675 mA·g^-1)下初始放电比容量为1 068 mAh·g^-1,经过500次循环后,可逆容量仍保持在693 mAh·g^-1。另外,在3C的高电流密度下,放电比容量可高达819 mAh·g^-1。     

Determination of Diuretics in Urine Using Immobilized Multi‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes in Hollow Fiber Liquid‐Phase Microextraction Combined with Liquid Chromatography‐Tandem Mass Spectrometry

A novel technique utilizing the adsorptive potential of immobilized multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (I‐MWCNT) in hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction (HF‐LPME) was developed for the determination of diuretics in urine. In this study, the potential of carbon nanotubes as a sorbent for three‐phase liquid‐phase microextraction of diuretics from urine samples was evaluated. Analysis was performed using liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS). A novel method was applied to detect acetazolamide (AAA), chlorothiazide (CTA), hydrochlorothiazide (HCT), hydroflumethiazide (HFT), clopamide (CA), trichlormethiazide (TCM), althiazide (AT) and bendroflumethiazide (BFT) in urine. Two‐step extractions using different times and temperatures for each step were adopted. Parameters influencing the extraction efficiency, including the extraction solvent, sample pH, salt concentration, extraction time and extraction temperature were systematically optimized. Under the resulting optimal extraction conditions, this method showed good linearity over an analytes concentration range of 1 to 1000 ng/mL, high extraction repeatability with relative standard deviations of less than 6%, and low detection limits (0.09 to 0.51 ng/mL). The application of the methods to the determination of diuretics in real samples was tested by analyzing urine samples of patient.     

Study of polymorphous silicon and germanium as thermo-sensing films for infrared detectors

In this work we present a comparative study on the electrical characteristics of polymorphous silicon (pm-Si:H) and polymorphous germanium (pm-Ge:H) thin films deposited by low frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (LF-PECVD), aiming to use them as thermo sensing elements in un-cooled microbolometers.We studied the effect of the deposition pressure on the film characteristics that are important for IR detection, as the activation energy (E_a), the thermal coefficient of resistance (TCR), the room temperature conductivity (σ_RT) and the film responsivity with IR radiation.Our results indicate that polymorphous films have advantages over boron doped a-Si:H, material which is currently employed as thermo-sensing element in commercial microbolometer arrays.

In-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction study of stress-induced phase transformation in Ti50.1Ni40.8Cu9.1 thin films

Stress-induced martensitic transformation of as-sputtered and post-annealed Ti_50.1Ni_40.8Cu_9.1 thin films was investigated using in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction (S-XRD) technique. For the as-deposited film, in-situ S-XRD analysis showed a martensitic transformation from parent phase to martensite during initial loading, followed by reorientation of martensite variants via detwinning. This detwinning process induced a strong 〈0 2 0〉 fiber texture along the loading direction and a strong 〈0 0 2〉 fiber texture perpendicular to the loading direction. For the 650 °C annealed film, there is only elastic deformation, followed by a martensitic transformation during deformation.     

An Efficacious Target-Field Approach to Design Shim Coils for Halbach Magnet of Mobile NMR Sensors

The main magnetic fields of mobile nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) magnets differ from those of conventional NMR and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) magnets. In the Halbach magnet, the main field B ₀ is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, the symmetry of the current distribution with respect to the symmetry of the magnetic field differs from that in conventional target-field applications, and the current distribution on the coil surface cannot be expressed in terms of periodic basis functions. To obtain the winding pattern of the coil, an efficacious target-field approach. The surface of a coil is divided into small discrete elements, where each element is represented by a magnetic dipole. From the stream function of the elements, the resultant magnetic field is calculated. The optimization strategy follows an objective function defined by the power dissipation or efficiency of the coil. This leads to the optimum stream function on the coil surface, whose contour lines define the winding patterns of the coil. This paper shows winding patterns designed of shim coils for Halbach magnet and illustrates the craft of a shim coil using flexible printed circuit board. The performance of the coils is verified by simulating the fields they produce over the sensitive volume.
