An optical surface plasmon resonance biosensor for determination of tetanus toxin

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) has been successfully applied for the simple, rapid, and label-free assay of various biomolecules. This assay evaluates a novel wavelength modulation SPR biosensor for the detection of tetanus toxin. The wavelength modulation SPR biosensor is designed based on fixing the incident angle of light and measuring the reflected intensities in the resonance wavelength range spanning 400-800 nm simultaneously. Tetanus toxin (TeNT), one of the most potent toxins known, is synthesized as a 150 kDa single polypeptide chain. The SPR biosensor has been shown to be capable of directly detecting concentration of tetanus toxin as low as 0.028 Lf ml⁻¹. Under selected experimental conditions, the SPR biosensor has a good reproducibility, sensitivity and reversibility. The results illustrate how wavelength modulation SPR biosensor can be used to detect biomolecular interactions.     

Isolation and cleanup of organophosphorus insecticides and their oxones from animal tissues

Summary A simple isolation and cleanup procedure for the determination of organophosphorus insecticides and their oxones in animal tissues has been developed. This procedure unites partly extraction of organophosphorus pesticides and their oxones with cleanup by column chromatography. Most polar coextracts remain on the column and in its further processing the eluate does not tend to form emulsion. The process has been studied on model mixtures of ³²P- and ¹⁴C-labelled pesticides with tissues as well as after application of pesticides to white rats. The average recovery of the method is 90.5%, with a standard deviation of ±5.1%.

Isolierung und Reinigung von Organophosphorinsecticiden und ihren Oxonen aus tierischen Gewehen

Zusammenfassung Ein einfaches Isolations- und Reinigungsverfahren wurde ausgearbeitet. Die Extraktion der Insecticide aus einer Homogenatsäule, die aus Kieselgel und Tiergewebe besteht, umfaßt zum Teil auch die Reinigung der Extrakte, da die polaren Verbindungen an die Säule gebunden bleiben. Der Mittelwert der Ausbeute des Verfahrens wurde im Modellversuch mit ¹⁴C- und ³²P-markierten Insecticiden zu 90,5% festgestellt. Die Standardabweichung beträgt ± 5,1%.

La2O3对Ni/γ-Al2O3甲烷化催化剂的助催化作用

我国将稀土作为助剂引入镍基甲烷化催化剂,大大提高了催化剂的活性和热稳定性,并已投入工业应用［1－3］．稀土对不同镍催化剂反应性能及其作用机理的研究已有一些报导［3－7］．谢有畅等观察到镍负载在经单层La2O3改性的γ－Al2O3表面,其晶粒要比没有La2O3时小得多．Rotgerink等认为添加La后反应速率的增加不只是由于几何效应,而是La对甲烷化本身有促进作用,单位镍表面的活性是随La含量不同而改变的,活性增加的同时表观活化能也增加［5］．作为助剂的La2O3在氢还原和反应过程中的变化及其作用的研究和讨论较少,目前一般认为添…

Direct and simultaneous voltammetric analysis of heavy metals in tap water samples at Assiut city: an approach to improve the analysis time for nickel and cobalt determination at mercury film electrode

Tap water samples (Assiut city, lie in the middle north of upper Egypt, approx. 370 km from Cairo, January-March, 2002) were taken from the eight sampling sites of different locations at Assiut city. The samples are analyzed to determine the total content of cadmium, copper, lead and zinc by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) while nickel and cobalt are determined by a new simple differential pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetry (DPAdSV), using dimethylglyoxime (DMG) as the complexing agent. This method uses sodium sulfite as the supporting electrolyte, which facilitates the removal of oxygen interference without the traditional necessity of purging with inert gas. The effect of various parameters was studied using DPASV (for Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn) and AdSV (for Ni and Co) methods. Subsequently, under the so found experimental conditions, the stability of calibration curves and the detection limits (μg/l) have been determined. The data achieved (for all metals utility) are comparable to those measured by the graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometric (GF-AAS) method. The effects of the interferences between these metal ions have been investigated. Moreover, the effect of storage was discussed and the obtained results were compared favorably with standard official methods. Statistical analysis of the database exhibits applicability and the accuracy of the techniques. The results obtained from the two techniques (Voltammetry and GF-AAS) are in very good agreements in the most tap water samples.
