The D'Alembert type waves and the soliton molecules in a (2+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili with its hierarchy equation

For a one (2+1)-dimensional combined Kadomtsev-Petviashvili with its hierarchy equation, the missing D'Alembert type solution is derived first through the traveling wave transformation which contains several special kink molecule structures. Further, after introducing the Bäcklund transformation and an auxiliary variable, the N-soliton solution which contains some soliton molecules for this equation, is presented through its Hirota bilinear form. The concrete molecules including line solitons, breathers and a lump as well as several interactions of their hybrid are shown with the aid of special conditions and parameters. All these dynamical features are demonstrated through the different figures.     

Complementary relation between quantum entanglement and entropic uncertainty

Quantum entanglement is regarded as one of the core concepts,which is used to describe the nonclassical correlation between subsystems,and entropic uncertainty relation plays a vital role in quantum precision measurement.It is well known that entanglement of formation can be expressed by von Neumann entropy of subsystems for arbitrary pure states.An interesting question is naturally raised:is there any intrinsic correlation between the entropic uncertainty relation and quantum entanglement?Or if the relation can be applied to estimate the entanglement.In this work,we focus on exploring the complementary relation between quantum entanglement and the entropic uncertainty relation.The results show that there exists an inequality relation between both of them for an arbitrary two-qubit system,and specifically the larger uncertainty will induce the weaker entanglement of the probed system,and vice versa.Besides,we use randomly generated states as illustrations to verify our results.Therefore,we claim that our observations might offer and support the validity of using the entropy uncertainty relation to estimate quantum entanglement.     

Impact of Extracellular Polymeric Substance in the Inactivation of Harmful Algae by Ag2O/g-C3N4 under Visible Light

Photocatalysis has attracted much attention as an emerging algae removal technology, but the inactivation performance is inevitably affected by the extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) produced by algae. In this study, a photocatalyst (Ag₂O/g-C₃N₄) with efficient algae inactivation is adopted to investigate the interactions with EPS, and the impact of EPS on photocatalytic algae removal is studied. The results show that EPS can adhere to the surface of Ag₂O/g-C₃N₄ by electrostatic force. The interaction with EPS decreases the surface zeta potential of the Ag₂O/g-C₃N₄ from 7.71 to −22.3 mV with the increase in EPS concentration, and the maximum ratio of particle size increases from 825 to 1281 nm. In addition, the interaction with EPS inhibits the release of Ag⁺ in Ag₂O/g-C₃N₄ by half, thus, the toxicity of metal ions will be alleviated. Meanwhile, EPS can also be degraded by Ag₂O/g-C₃N₄, indicating that EPS can work as a radical scavenger to protect the algae cells. Without the protection of EPS, 97.8% of algae cells are inactivated after 5 h photocatalysis. Therefore, more attention should be given to the interaction between EPS and photocatalyst to promote the design and application of the photocatalytic.

This unique protocol exhibited atom-/step-economy, low cost, high efficiency and robust functional-group tolerance, which will greatly facilitate to diversify the A-ring of the bioactive natural product.     

Exploratory Purification of Compounds from Aqueous Extracts of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pinus massoniana</Emphasis> Lamb. by Two-Dimensional Preparative Liquid Chromatography

An off-line orthogonal two-dimensional preparative liquid chromatography method was developed for isolation of high-purity compounds from aqueous extracts of Pinus massoniana Lamb., which has efficient therapeutic properties in recipes of traditional Chinese medicines. A polar-enhanced reversed-phase (RP) column, XAqua C18 was selected for the first-dimensional separation. A HILIC column and a hydrophobic RP column were both explored in the second dimension. The preparation results indicated hydrophilic RP × HILIC mode would provide better separation efficiency for polar complexes, i.e., the second-dimensional separation was finished in less than 30 min and high-purity compounds were obtained. In this work, 16 fractions were collected efficiently in the first dimension with a recovery up to 96%, and six compounds with high purity and enough quantity were identified by NMR and high resolution mass spectrometry, including epicatechin, betuloside, taxifolin-3-O-xyloside, cedrusin-4-O-glucoside, massonianoside C and massonianoside D, and five are glycosides, including flavonoid glycosides, lignanoid glycosides and an arylbutanoid glycoside. Betuloside was first reported in the preparation of Pinus massoniana Lamb. This work demonstrated a flexible strategy of compromise in between time and resolution for selecting solvent and column to enhance preparative efficiency of polar complex systems.     

Characterization of the Self-Assembly of Glutathione Stabilized Cadmium Selenide–Zinc Sulfide Quantum Dots with a Cyanine5-Labeled Peptide by Capillary Electrophoresis and Fluorescence

Capillary electrophoresis with fluorescence detection was used to characterize the self-assembly of cadmium selenide–zinc sulfide quantum dots and a cyanine5-labeled peptide (cyanine5-EAAAAAHHHHHH). The self-assembly was driven by metal-affinity forces to allow characterization by Förster resonance energy transfer. The Förster resonance energy transfer signal increased with the ratio of cyanine5-EAAAAAHHHHHH to quantum dots and reached a plateau at a ratio of 32:1. This method illustrates the application of quantum dot-based bioanalysis.
