The development of molecular spectroscopy has enabled us to select chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons very rapidly. In particular, the laser ionization TOFMS (time-of-flight mass spectrometry) method is expected to be useful as an on-line, selective, and sensitive method. In the present work, real-time laser ionization TOFMS measurements were carried out on gaseous chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons. The laser ionization method used resonance-enhanced two-photon ionization with the direct introduction of gas into the vacuum chamber. This method for analyzing aromatic hydrocarbons was developed using a pulsed supersonic molecular beam method. In the context of developing a highly selective and sensitive method, excitation of monochlorinated benzene at lambda = 263.07 nm was found to be effective in the wavelength region from 263 nm to 265 nm. Also the excitation of polychlorinated biphenyls at lambda = 266 nm was found to be substantially more effective than at lambda = 280, 300 or 320 nm. The achievable sensitivity for real-time (1 min) measurements using the laser ionization TOFMS technique was found to be in the ppbV range. 相似文献
This paper provides an analysis of the polynomiality of primal-dual interior point algorithms for nonlinear complementarity
problems using a wide neighborhood. A condition for the smoothness of the mapping is used, which is related to Zhu’s scaled
Lipschitz condition, but is also applicable to mappings that are not monotone. We show that a family of primal-dual affine
scaling algorithms generates an approximate solution (given a precision ε) of the nonlinear complementarity problem in a finite
number of iterations whose order is a polynomial ofn, ln(1/ε) and a condition number. If the mapping is linear then the results in this paper coincide with the ones in Jansen

As computing resources continue to improve, global solutions for larger size quadrically constrained optimization problems become more achievable. In this paper, we focus on larger size problems and get accurate bounds for optimal values of such problems with the successive use of SDP relaxations on a parallel computing system called Ninf (Network-based Information Library for high performance computing). 相似文献
Proanthocyanidins, known as condensed tannins or oligomeric flavonoids, exist in many edible plants and show various interesting biological activities. We have developed a simple and versatile method of synthesizing procyanidin oligomers consisting of (−)-epicatechin and (+)-catechin. This method is applicable to the synthesis of various 3-O-substituted oligomers. We report here the stereoselective and length controlled synthesis of [4-8]-condensed (−)-epicatechin series procyanidin oligomers. We described the details of the synthesis of an two tetramers, (−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin and (−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin-(+)-catechin (arecatannin A1), (−)-epicatechin pentamer and two 3,3″,3?-tri-O-galloyl trimers, (−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin-3,3″,3?-tri-O-gallate and (−)-epicatechin-(−)-epicatechin-(+)-catechin-3,3″,3?-tri-O-gallate with the condensation method using TMSOTf as a catalyst. The ability of DPPH radical scavenging activity and DNA polymerase inhibitory activity of these oligomeric compounds were investigated. 相似文献
A persistent dialkylsilanone was synthesized by the dehydrobromination of a dialkylbromosilanol with tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl potassium in solution at ?80 °C: It was characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy, and was tested in several reactions. In 29Si NMR spectrum in [D8]toluene, the signal due to the unsaturated silicon nuclei was observed at 128.7 ppm. Reactions of the dialkylsilanone with water and mesitonitrile oxide gave a silanediol and a [2+3] cycloadduct, respectively. The silanone remains intact in [D8]toluene below ?80 °C for at least two days, while it undergoes unprecedented isomerization to give a siloxysilene by means of 1,3‐silyl migration at higher temperatures. 相似文献
DNA quantification has made its mark in pharmaceutical analysis and the life sciences. In particular, in the quality control of nucleic acid drugs and the detection and quantification of genetically modified organisms, evaluation of the DNA degradation rate has become imperative. In this study, by using high-performance liquid chromatography with an anion-exchange column, we established a method for the separation and quantification of DNA fragments in mixed DNA samples. By using a NaCl concentration gradient, DNA fragments in mixed DNA sample were separated well. A calibration curve from 0.05 to 12.4 ng μL?1 was obtained with high linearity and the correlation coefficient was 0.9999. The limit of detection was 0.02 ng μL?1 and the limit of quantification was 0.06 ng μL?1 for S/N = 3 or S/N = 10, respectively. The relative standard deviation was less than 2 % in the measurement of peak area repeatability. The recovery of approximately 1 ng μL?1 of a specific DNA spiked in a mixed DNA sample was 99.9 ± 3.6 %. The method was able to measure the degradation rate of 600 bp DNA with a variation of approximately 1 %. 相似文献
This study describes the facile synthesis of platinum nanoparticle-containing porous carbons (Pt/C) by carbonization of freeze-dried agarose gels containing potassium tetrachloroplatinate under a nitrogen atmosphere at 800 °C. By adjusting the ratio between agarose and platinate in the freeze-dried gels, the Pt content in the final Pt/C products could be systematically varied from 0–10 wt.%. Transmission electron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and nitrogen physisorption measurements revealed that the Pt/C materials obtained by this method possess high surface areas (350–500 m2 g−1), narrow Pt nanoparticle size distributions (6 ± 3 nm) and nanocrystalline graphite –like carbon character. By immobilization of glucose oxidase on the surface of a 4 wt.% Pt/C electrocatalyst prepared by this route, a very sensitive amperometric glucose biosensor was obtained (response time <2 min, sensitivity 1.9 mA M−1; and a linear response with glucose concentration up to 10 mM). The simplicity and versatility of the described synthetic method suggests its application to the preparation of carbon supported noble metal catalysts including palladium/C and gold/C.
A treatment of cobalt oxide supported gold nanoparticles (Au/Co3O4) under syngas atmosphere effectively generated a cobalt carbonyl-like active species in the reaction vessel. The preparation of Au/Co3O4 was quite simple and the in situ generated cobalt species could be used as a stable and easy handling alternative for dicobalt octacarbonyl without bothersome purification prior to use. The reactions, which are sensitive to the purity of the dicobalt octacarbonyl, such as the alkoxycarbonylation of epoxides and the Pauson-Khand reaction, smoothly progressed with Au/Co3O4. 相似文献
