Rapid preparation of molecularly imprinted polymer by frontal polymerization

Frontal polymerization was successfully applied, for the first time, to obtain molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). The method provides a solvent-free polymerization mode, and the reaction can be completed in 30 min. By this approach, MIPs were synthesized using a mixture of levofloxacin (template), methacrylic acid, and divinylbenzene. The effect of template concentration and the amount of comonomer on the imprinting effect of the resulting MIPs was investigated. The textural and morphological parameters of the MIP particles were also characterized by mercury intrusion porosimetry, nitrogen adsorption isotherms, and scanning electron microscopy, providing evidence concerning median pore diameter, pore volumes, and pore size distributions. The levofloxacin-imprinted polymer formed in frontal polymerization mode showed high selectivity, with an imprinting factor of 5.78. The results suggest that frontal polymerization provides an alternative means to prepare MIPs that are difficult to synthesize and may open up new perspectives in the field of MIPs.

HPLC-ESI-MS和FTIR方法鉴别不同产地中药肉苁蓉的研究

采用HPLC-ESI-MS和傅里叶红外光谱法对五种不同产地中药肉苁蓉进行了分析,采用HPLC-ESI-MS检测了中药肉苁蓉中荒漠肉苁蓉苷A、松果菊苷、毛蕊花糖苷、异毛蕊花糖苷、2’-乙酰基毛蕊花糖苷、荒漠肉苁蓉苷C、管花苷B七种有效成分的含量。采用傅里叶红外光谱法,以五种药用植物样品的红外指纹图谱为依据,计算出所测样品的共有峰率和变异峰率。建立了五种药用植物的共有峰率和变异峰率双指标序列。结果显示两种方法对药材评价结果基本一致。采用傅里叶变换红外光谱法亦可区分肉苁蓉的常见伪品锁阳。HPLC-ESI-MS具有高通量、高灵敏度、分析快速等优点,可以通过主要化学成分含量的测定对肉苁蓉进行质量评价。傅里叶红外光谱法可以对样品进行无损处理,不需要对药材进行复杂的提取分离过程即可获得肉苁蓉红外光谱特征,其光谱的吸收峰强度与峰形是各种官能团互相作用的结果,是肉苁蓉多组分红外光谱的叠加。我们能从整体水平分析谱图特征峰,具有分析速度快,重现性好,非破坏性和样品量小,制样简单,专属性强,节约成本,保护环境等优点,符合中药向综合分析和整体分析的发展趋势。HPLC-ESI-MS和傅里叶红外光谱法联合应用,两种方法互为补充,为鉴别中药的真伪,探讨中药质量评价提供了一种新方法。     

Correlation dimension based nonlinear analysis of network traffics with different application protocols

This paper uses a correlation dimension based nonlinear analysis approach to analyse the dynamics of network traffics with three different application protocols-HTTP,FTP and SMTP.First,the phase space is reconstructed and the embedding parameters are obtained by the mutual information method.Secondly,the correlation dimensions of three different traffics are calculated and the results of analysis have demonstrated that the dynamics of the three different application protocol traffics is different from each other in nature,i.e.HTTP and FTP traffics are chaotic,furthermore,the former is more complex than the later;on the other hand,SMTP traffic is stochastic.It is shown that correlation dimension approach is an efficient method to understand and to characterize the nonlinear dynamics of HTTP,FTP and SMTP protocol network traffics.This analysis provided insight into and a more accurate understanding of nonlinear dynamics of internet traffics which have a complex mixture of chaotic and stochastic components.     

Highly regio- and stereoselective iodocyclization of chiral 3-alkoxycarbonyl-4-propenyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidines: a computational investigation

The iodocyclization of allylic carbamates 3a and 3b proceeded with high regio- and stereoselection to give 2-oxobicyclo[4.3.0]nonane 5a as the major product. Both the regio- and diastereoselection of the reaction were investigated with the help of molecular mechanics and quantomechanical calculations. The energetic difference between the competing transition states TS-5a and TS-5b is in good agreement with the experimental results and from the calculated transition structures it appears that steric factors direct the discrimination.     

SUSY—QCD Corrections to B^0—B^0 Mixing

We study the SUSY-QCD corrections to B^0-B^0 mixing with a reasonable SUSY parameter space and find that contribution from gluio is proportional to log(mg/μω) where μω is the weak interaction energy scale and by no means negligible.     

Influence of the In-Medium Quark Mass on the K+-Nucleus scattering

The influence of density-dependent quark masses, based on the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, on K⁺-nucleus scattering is investigated. Introduction of this density dependence is found to be a possible explanation for the missing theoretical K⁺-nucleus cross section     

不同配伍方式凉血活血复方的红外光谱法研究

采用红外光谱法(FTIR)、二阶导数红外光谱法和二维相关光谱分析技术(Two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy)研究不同配伍方式的大血藤、牡丹皮、赤芍水煎液的“宏观指纹特征”。结果表明,不同配伍方式的复方水煎液在3种谱图上均具有显著的变化规律。君药大血藤的特征峰1 610,1 518,1 446 cm-1为芳香物的特征峰,说明大血藤提取物中含有大量芳香类化合物,说明君药在原配伍中具有很好的溶出度,有效成分得以充分利用。不同比例的水煎剂中1 614 cm-1的特征峰倾向于大血藤1 610 cm-1,说明大血藤对水煎剂溶出物质影响较大。根据对特征峰的指认和归属,可揭示药物剂量的增减对复方整体配伍的影响。所提方法为中药复方配伍整体研究提供了新的途径。

Novel 2-hydroxynaphthalene-based fluorescent turn-on sensor for highly sensitive and selective detection of Al3+ and its application in imaging in vitro and in vivo

Excessive aluminum exposure in the human body has been held responsible for multiple adverse effects, and existing data underscore the significance of aluminum detection in environmental and biological systems. Developing high-performance Al³⁺ fluorescent chemosensors can revolutionize our understanding of the physiological and pathological processes of Al³⁺ ions. Herein, we reported a highly sensitive and selective Schiff base fluorescence sensor, bis-NAPPD (1,1'-((1E,1'E)-(pyridine-2,3-diylbis(azanylylidene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(naphthalen-2-ol)), which can recognize Al³⁺ ions and exhibits a remarkable turn-on dual emission response (by ~23 fold) with a low nanomolar level detection limit (1.67 × 10⁻⁸ M) in methanol. Furthermore, the binding behavior and the turn-on fluorescence probing mechanism of bis-NAPPD were illustrated in detail by UV–vis titration, ¹H NMR, and ESI-MS spectroscopy as well as density functional theory calculations. Notably, bis-NAPPD showed great potential for tracing Al³⁺ distribution in cells and living zebrafish larvae, and can also be applied in the fluorimetric detection of aluminum in sucralfate tablets with good precision and satisfactory accuracy, which may represent a promising Al³⁺ probe in bioimaging and biomedical applications.
