尿液pH变化与尿液中纳米微晶组分的关系

采用X射线衍射(XRD)和傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)研究了尿液pH变化与尿液中纳米微晶组分的关系。不但尿pH差异大的不同人尿液中微晶组分存在差异,而且同一人的尿pH发生变化时,其尿微晶亦发生变化。尿pH值较低(如pH＜5.8)时,主要为尿酸、酸式磷酸盐和草酸钙等;尿pH值较高(如pH＞6.2)时,主要为尿酸盐、磷酸盐、磷酸铵镁和草酸钙等。联合运用XRD和FTIR两种方法,可以更好地检测尿液中晶体组分,有助于了解尿石症的成因。

缺陷LB膜诱导特异形貌草酸钙堆积图形

A special pattern of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystals was induced by DPPC Langmuir-Blodgett films with defects. The pattern was that a large hexagonal COM crystal located in the middle of a ring-shaped pattern of needle-liked crystals. The number of such special patterns with a diameter between 10 μm and 40 μm accounted for about 5% of the whole crystal patterns. It is due to the “islands” composed of aggregated film-forming molecules in the middle of the liquid-condensed domains. The effects of the concentration of potassium oxalate and the growth time on the crystal patterns were studied. When the concentration of potassium oxalate(c_K2C2O4) was 0.6 mmol·L^-1, the needle-liked COM crystals on the rings grew towards inside part of the patterns as the induced-time increased from 1 h to 4 h. After 2 h, the solid circle patterns were formed. On the other hand, the size of the hexagonal COM crystal in the middle of the pattern increased. The size of the COM crystals on the rings were about 3 μm × 2 μm, and that of three-dimensional COM crystals in the middle of the patterns were about 16 μm × 7 μm × 6 μm after 4 h. However, when c_K2C2O4 was increased to 5.0 mmol·L^-1, there was only a large COM crystal grown in the middle of the circular COM crystallites no matter 1 h or 4 h of crystal growth, and the ratio of these special COM patterns increased. It can be explained that the interaction between oxalate and DPPC molecules is enhanced as the increase of c_K2C2O4, so more and more DPPC molecules fled away from the substrate surface, resulting in decrease of the nucleating sites in the circle.     

激光散射法对尿液中纳米微晶粒径及其分布的研究

泌尿系结石已经成为威胁人类健康的一种常见病、多发病,目前对其形成的机制尚不清楚。文章采用激光散射法测定了正常人尿液和尿石症患者尿液中纳米粒子的粒径和粒径分布,该方法快速准确、经济、容易操作。正常人尿液比尿石症患者尿液的稳定性好,归因于正常人尿液中纳米微晶尺寸分布均匀,不容易聚集,而尿石症患者尿液的纳米微晶尺寸分布不均匀,粒子间容易聚集而沉降。通过分析尿样稀释、离心或者用微孔滤膜过滤后体系的光强-自相关函数曲线,得到了制备稳定的尿样悬浮液的方法：尿样先稀释20%,然后离心或用1.2 μm微孔滤膜过滤,可得到稳定的尿液悬浮液。激光散射法结果与TEM检测结果一致。从尿液中存在的范德华力、尿液粘度、酸碱性、离子强度、尿液中纳米微晶的表面电荷和Zeta电位等方面解释了尿液稳定的原因。     

不同晶相草酸钙超细微晶的合成及其与硫酸软骨素A的相互作用

采用配位沉淀法制备了二水草酸钙(COD)和一水草酸钙(COM)超细微晶,其尺寸分别为150nm和320nm。通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)、红外光谱(FTIR)、纳米粒度仪(Nano-ZS)和紫外-可见吸收光谱(UV-Vis)表征了这两种草酸钙微晶。研究了尿大分子硫酸软骨素A(C4S)对上述COM和COD微晶ξ电位、粒径、聚集程度和紫外吸光度的影响。随着cC4S从0增加到1.0g·L-1,COD微晶的ξ电位从-9.7mV减小到-46.1mV,COM微晶的ξ电位从-15.9mV减小到-49.0mV;微晶表面ξ电位变负后,有利于稳定溶液中悬浮的微晶。在水溶液中,COD和COM微晶均存在显著的聚集现象,而C4S的存在可抑制COD微晶的聚集,并在浓度为0.05g·L-1时抑制效果最好。由于尿液中存在大量草酸钙微晶,本研究有助于阐明草酸钙结石的形成机理和C4S对草酸钙结石形成的抑制作用。     

用无机硅钛原料合成无铝Ti-β分子筛的研究

Ti-β zeolite has been successfully synthesized by using fumed silica and TiCl₃ as silicon and titanium sources respectively under the hydrothermal conditions.Because inorganic Si and Ti compounds instead of relative organic metal compounds were used in the synthesis of Ti-β ,and then a tedious hydrolysis procedure of organic metal compounds was avoided,the gelatin time was reduced,the synthesis process was simplified and easily reproduced.Importantly,the synthesized Ti-β zeolite,which was characterized by XRD, FT-IR, UV-Vis and DTA, didn't exist TiO₂ crystals and had a good quality.     

不同分子质量聚乙二醇对一水草酸钙成核和生长的调控作用

采用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)和原子吸收光谱(AAS)等方法研究了水溶液中分子质量分别为400、4000、6000和12000的聚乙二醇(PEG)对尿结石矿物一水草酸钙(COM)结晶的影响.上述四种PEG均能抑制COM晶体的成核和生长.随着PEG分子质量减小,其与Ca2+离子配位能力逐渐增加,抑制COM生长的能力增强,导致上层清液中可溶性Ca含量增加.随着PEG分子质量减小,或PEG浓度增加,其诱导的COM晶体的{010}晶面增强,{101}减弱.
