Unsteady, axisymmetric stagnation flow about a circular cylinderis examined when the far-field flow is a periodic function oftime with a fixed time average and an oscillatory part of prescribedamplitude and frequency. Solutions are computed for arbitraryvalues of the Reynolds number, quantifying the effects of surfacecurvature, and a frequency parameter based on the period ofthe far-field flow. It is found that solutions remain regularand periodic provided that the far-field amplitude lies belowa critical value. Above this value, solutions terminate in afinite-time singularity. The blow-up time is delayed by increasingthe curvature of the surface. These results are corroboratedby asymptotic predictions valid in the limits of small and largeamplitude and frequency. For large Reynolds number, the problemreduces to the two-dimensional stagnation-point flow againsta plane wall studied by previous authors. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to produce lycopene-containing powders from tomato products by a solvent-free method making use of
β-cyclodextrin (βCD). Powders were prepared by spray-drying a tomato concentrate (TC), one of the most bioavailable form of
lycopene, after mechanical treatment with βCD in different weight ratios. The obtained product was centrifuged to eliminate
partly food matrix and characterized for the amount of lycopene hydrodispersed/hydrosolubilized in the aqueous fraction. The
chemical antioxidant activity of sera was evaluated too. Powders obtained by spray-drying sera exhibited good flow properties,
a lycopene content between 0.4 and 1.09 mg/g and excellent water dispersability. The process developed, which makes use of
βCD for the treatment of tomato products, turns to be of great interest to obtain a bulk material for nutraceuticals displaying
superior biovailability of lycopene. 相似文献

Abstract— The spectroscopic characterization of the photoreceptor pigment is one of the main questions in the study of the photosensory transduction chains in photomotile microorganisms. One of the possible techniques that can be used is in vivo microspectrofluorometry. By means of a tunable dye-laser microspectrofiuorometer developed by us, we have investigated some of the spectroscopic properties of the photoreceptor pigment of the green flagellate Euglena gracilis. The in vivo fluorescence excitation spectrum has been determined and the fluorescence quantum yield has been measured. The results show that flavins are indeed present in the paraflagellar body of E. gracilis and that their fluorescence quantum yield is much lower than that of a free flavin. An estimate of the order of magnitude of the rate constants for primary molecular reactions is tentatively given. 相似文献

Beta2-microglobulin (beta2-m) is a small amyloidogenic protein normally present on the surface of most nucleated cells and responsible for dialysis-related amyloidosis, which represents a severe complication of long-term hemodialysis. A therapeutic approach for this amyloidosis could be based on the stabilization of beta2-m through the binding to a small molecule, and consequent inhibition of protein misfolding and amyloid fibril formation. A few compounds have been described to weakly bind beta2-m, including the drug suramin. The lack of a binding site for nonpolypeptidic ligands on the beta2-m structure makes it difficult for both the identification of functional groups responsible for the binding and the search of hits to be optimized. The characterization of the binding properties of suramin for beta2-m by using three different techniques (surface plasmon resonance, affinity CE (ACE), ultrafiltration) is here described and the results obtained are compared. The common features of the chemical structures of the compounds known to bind the protein led us to select 200 sulfonated/suramin-like molecules from a wider chemical library on the basis of similarity rules, so as to possibly single out some interesting hits and to gain more information on the functional groups involved in the binding. The development of screening methods to test the compounds by using ultrafiltration and ACE is described. 相似文献

S -nitrosothiols have many biological activities and may act as nitric oxide (NO) carriers and donors, prolonging NO half-life in vivo. In spite of their great potential as therapeutic agents, most S -nitrosothiols are too unstable to isolate. We have shown that the S -nitroso adduct of N -acetylcysteine (SNAC) can be synthesized directly in aqueous and polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400 matrix by using a reactive gaseous (NO/O2 ) mixture. Spectral monitoring of the S–N bond cleavage showed that SNAC, synthesized by this method, is relatively stable in nonbuf-fered aqueous solution at 25°C in the dark and that its stability is greatly increased in PEG matrix, resulting in a 28-fold decrease in its initial rate of thermal decomposition. Irradiation with UV light (λ= 333 nm) accelerated the rate of decomposition of SNAC to NO in both matrices, indicating that SNAC may find use for the photogeneration of NO. The quantum yield for SNAC decomposition decreased from 0.65 ± 0.15 in aqueous solution to 0.047 ± 0.005 in PEG 400 matrix. This increased stability in PEG matrix was assigned to a cage effect promoted by the PEG microenvironment that increases the rate of geminated radical pair recombination in the homolytic S–N bond cleavage process. This effect allowed for the storage of SNAC in PEG at −20°C in the dark for more than 10 weeks with negligible decomposition. Such stabilization may represent a viable option for the synthesis, storage and handling of S -nitrosothiol solutions for biomedical applications. 相似文献

We address the problem of two pairs of fermions living on an arbitrary number of single-particle levels of a potential well (mean field) and interacting through a pairing force in the framework of the Richardson equations. The associated solutions are classified in terms of a number vl, which reduces to the seniority v in the limit of a large pairing strength G and yields the number of pairs not developing a collective behaviour, their energy remaining finite in the G limit. We express analytically, through the moments of the single-particle levels distribution, the collective mode energy and the two critical values Gcr+ and Gcr- of the coupling which can exist on a single-particle level with no pair degeneracy. Notably Gcr+ and Gcr-, when the number of single particle levels goes to infinity, merge into the critical coupling of a one-pair system Gcr (when it exists), which is not envisioned by the Richardson theory. In correspondence of Gcr, the system undergoes a transition from a mean-field- to a pairing-dominated regime. We finally explore the behaviour of the excitation energies, wave functions and pair transfer amplitudes versus G finding out that the former, for G > Gcr-, come close to the BCS predictions, whereas the latter display a divergence at Gcr, signaling the onset of a long-range off-diagonal order in the system. 相似文献

An automated continuous flow process has been developed for the synthesis of11C-ethanol and11C-butanol. These alcohols were synthesized via the same route. The reaction of11CO2 with methylmagnesium bromide or with n-propylmagnesium chloride, followed by a lithium aluminum hydride reduction and hydrolysis produced respectively11C-ethanol and11C-butanol. Preparation can be completed in 25 min. In each case the radiochemical purity, as determined by high pressure liquid chromatography /HPLC/ was greater than 98%. Biological quality control shows that the products are suitable for human use. The process has been completely automated to limit radiation exposure to personnel, reduce preparation time, and increase reproducibility. 相似文献
