Bromine-Functionalized Covalent Organic Frameworks for Efficient Triboelectric Nanogenerator

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) enable precise integration of various organic building blocks into porous skeletons through topology predesign. Here, we report the first example of COFs by integrating electron withdrawing bromine group onto the skeletons for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG). The resulting framework exhibits high surface area and good crystallinity. Thus, the bromine functionalized COF has more regular aligned π columns and arrays over the skeleton than bare COFs, which in turn significantly enhances charge transport ability. As a result, bromine functionalized COFs showed higher electrical output performance at 5 Hz with a peak value of short circuit current density of 43.6 μA and output voltage of 416 V, which is 2 and 1.3 times higher than those of bare COFs (21.6 μA and 318 V), respectively. These results demonstrated that this strategy for engineering electron withdrawing groups on the skeleton could open a new aspect of COFs for developing TENG devices.

A novel pH‐ and thermo‐sensitive PVP/CMC semi‐IPN hydrogel: Swelling,phase behavior,and drug release study

Poly(N‐vinyl‐pyrrolidone) (PVP) hydrogel has been considered as a very interesting and promising thermosensitive material. The most vital shortcoming of PVP hydrogel as thermosensitive material is that it does not exhibit thermosensitivity under usual conditions. In this work, semi‐interpenetrating polymer network (semi‐IPN) hydrogels based on PVP and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) were prepared. The volume phase transition temperature (VPTT) of the hydrogels was determined by swelling behavior and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results showed that the VPTT was significantly dependent on CMC content and the pH of the swelling medium. The amount of CMC in the semi‐IPN hydrogels was 0.050, 0.075, and 0.100 g, the VPTT in buffer solution of pH 1.2 was 29.9 °C, 27.5 °C and 24.5 °C, respectively. In addition, the VPTT occurred in buffer solution of pH 1.2, but did not appear in alkaline medium. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model drug was loaded and the in vitro release studies were carried out in different buffer solutions and at different temperatures. The results of this study suggest that PVP/CMC semi‐IPN hydrogels could serve as potential candidates for protein drug delivery in the intestine. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Geographical traceability of wheat and its products using multielement light stable isotopes coupled with chemometrics

The present study was aimed to investigate the variation of stable isotopic ratios of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen in wheat kernel along with different processed fractions from three geographical origins across 5 years using isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS). Multiway ANOVA revealed significant differences among region, harvest year, processing, and their interactions for all isotopes. The region contributed the major variability in the δ¹³C ‰, δ²H ‰, δ¹⁵N ‰, and δ¹⁸O‰ values of wheat. Variation of δ¹³C ‰, δ¹⁵N ‰, and δ¹⁸O ‰ between wheat whole kernel and its products (break, reduction, noodles, and cooked noodles) were ?0.7‰, and no significant difference was observed, suggesting the reliability of these isotope fingerprints in geographical traceability of wheat‐processed fractions and foods. A significant influence of wheat processing was observed for δ²H values. By applying linear discriminant analysis (LDA) to the whole dataset, the generated model correctly classified over 91% of the samples according to the geographical origin. The application of these parameters will assist in the development of an analytical control procedure that can be utilized to control the mislabeling regarding geographical origin of wheat kernel and its products.     

稀土对小麦（Triticum aestivum）体内光合和呼吸速率及磷酸化功能的影响

以适当浓度稀土溶液处理小麦后，其光合和氧化磷酸化的磷氧比（Ｐ／Ｏ）、光合控制（Ｐｃ）、呼吸控制（ＲＣ）、状态３．４光合和呼吸速率（Ｓ３．Ｓ４）与对照样比均无显著性差异。状态２（Ｓ２）光合和呼吸速率提高，差异极显著。说明小麦用最适浓度稀土处理后，对其光合和呼吸的磷酸化机构和功能膜影响不大，但显著促进了光合和呼吸速率（Ｓ２），从而促进了电子传递链的活性，使ＡＴＰ形成量增加。

Novel 99mTc labeled σ receptor ligand as a potential tumor imaging agent

A novel ^99mTc labeled complex, [N-[2-((2-oxo-2-(4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazin-1-yl)ethyl) (2-mercaptoethyl)amino)acetyl]-2-aminoethanethiolato]Technetium(V) oxide (PPPE-MAMA’-^99mTcO) ([ ^99m Tc]-2) has been designed and prepared based on the integrated approach. The corresponding rhenium complex (PPPE-MAMA’-ReO)(Re-2) has been prepared and characterized. In vitro competition binding assays show moderate affinity of Re-2 towards σ₁ and σ₂ receptors with K _i values of 8.67 ± 0.07 and 5.71 ± 1.88 μmol, respectively. Planar images obtained at 0.5 h, 4 h, 20 h after i.v. injection indicate the accumulation of [ ^99m Tc]-2 in MCF-7 human breast tumor bearing mice at 20 h. Furthermore, the accumulation of [ ^99m Tc]-2 has been inhibited at 20 h after co-injection of [ ^99m Tc]-2 plus haloperidol (1 mg/kg). Biodistribution studies of [ ^99m Tc]-2 display an in vivo tumor uptake of 0.14% ± 0.01% ID/g at 24 h post i.v. injection with a tumor/muscle ratio of 6.02 ± 0.87. The above results suggest that [ ^99m Tc]-2, derived from a previously published lead compound, retains certain tumor uptake and affinity for σ receptors. [ ^99m Tc]-2 may be used as a basis for further structural modifications to develop tumor imaging agents with high affinity for σ receptors.

低压催化氚化亮石松碱的定位效应的研究

近年来,中草药有效成分的研究引起国内外有关学者普遍关注。氚标记中草药有效成分是研究其相应的药代动力学和代谢产物的主要手段,它具有操作简便,条件温和等优点,但是一般氚化方法均不能明确给出氚化位置。而研究氚化定位效应又是药理工作者急待解决的重要课题,所以在很大程度上限制了该项技术的使用范围。最近,郑冬珠等人用FX—100型核磁共振谱仪给出了在PdO催化剂存在条件下,低压氚化亮石松碱的氚化位置及其相对含量。本文在前文基础上,以亮石松碱为底物,根据Fraser和Garnett等人提出的氢—氚同位素交换反应动力学理论,采用CNDO/2法,对PdO催化亮石松碱的立体构型讲行了计算,得出一些有意义的结果。     

叶酸与人血清白蛋白结合作用的光谱研究

在不同温度下的pH 7.4的Tris-HCl缓冲溶液体系中, 采用荧光光谱、紫外吸收光谱和同步荧光光谱研究了人血清蛋白与叶酸的相互作用。研究表明,这种相互作用使人血清白蛋白发生内源荧光猝灭,属于静态猝灭机制。通过计算得到人血清蛋白与叶酸在17和37 ℃下静态猝灭的猝灭速率常数分别为7.396 6×104和7.2652×104 L·mol-1、结合常数分别为7.50×104和1.98×105 L·mol-1、结合位点数均为1。根据Förster非辐射能量转移机理,求算出给体(HSA)与受体(叶酸)间的作用距离和能量转移效率分别为1.77和0.052 65 nm,并结合热力学参数说明了叶酸分子与人血清白蛋白的作用以疏水作用为主,同时也存在静电引力。利用同步荧光光谱研究了人血清蛋白与叶酸的相互作用中HSA的构象变化,发现色氨酸残基所处环境的疏水性降低,说明叶酸分子进入了人血清白蛋白的疏水腔中。
