Nitrogen- and iron-containing carbon dots (N,Fe-CDs) are synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of branched polyethylenimine (BPEI) and hemin at 180 °C. The N,Fe-CDs are mainly doped with nitrogen and trace amounts of iron(III). The N,Fe-CDs also display intrinsic fluorescence with excitation/emission maxima at 365/452 nm and a quantum yield of 27 %. The nanodots are shown to act as peroxidase mimics by catalyzing the oxidation of tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) by hydrogen peroxide to form a blue product whose quantity can be determined by photometry at 652 nm. This was exploited to design colorimetric and fluorometric assays for dopamine (DA). The colorimetric assay is based on the oxidation of DA by H2O2 in presence of the N,Fe-CDs and TMB. It has an instrumental detection limit of 40 nM (at an S/N ratio of 3), and a visual detection limit of 0.4 μM. The fluorometric assay is based on an inner filter effect that is caused by the formation of oxidized TMB which overlaps (and absorbs) the emission of the N,Fe-CDs located at 452 nm. The fluorometric detection limit is as low as 20 nM (at an S/N ratio of 3).
Graphical abstract Carbon dots containing nitrogen and iron (N,Fe-CDs) were synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of branched polyethylenimine and hemin. The N,Fe-CDs display excellent fluorescent properties, peroxidase-like activity and potential application in colorimetric and fluorometric detection of dopamine.
New silver-containing nanocomposites different in their dispersity of metal were synthesized on the basis of strongly and weakly basic anion-exchange resins. The chemical activity of the nanocomposites with respect to oxygen dissolved in water was investigated. It was shown that silver nanoparticles in samples based on strongly basic anion exchangers and weakly basic anion exchangers in the NO3? salt form are not oxidized by oxygen; for weakly basic matrices in the free amine form, this process occurs to only a small extent. The resistance to oxygen is explained by inhibition of processes of formation of silver oxides. Nanocomposites based on strongly basic anion-exchange resins are recommended for testing as to catalytic activity. 相似文献
The oxygen content of air-saturated distilled water has been determined at between 10 and 40 degrees by using a controlled-potential coulometric method based on an earlier published method for the iodometric determination of nitrite. The maximum error for the determinations was +/- 0.3% over the whole range, and the time of analysis about 3 min. An equation is given for the solubility in the measured range, and some thermodynamic functions are calculated. 相似文献

Winkler's procedure for the determination of dissolved oxygen has been modified to cope with substantial amounts of oxidizing or reducing substances in the samples. The manganese(III) is treated with an excess of hydroquinone, the unconsumed part of which is then titrated with standard ceric sulphate solution. A blank determination is also carried out, in which the order of addition of reagents is reversed so that the solution is always acidic, to allow for the interfering substances present. Results obtained by using this modified procedure on clean samples are in good agreement with results obtained by the usual Winkler method. 相似文献

A novel thin layer cell equipped with thin layer gas electrode (TLGE) was studied as electrochemical gas sensor for the measurement of dissolved oxygen in water or aqueous solutions. The working electrode (TLGE) is a hydrophobic gas diffusing electrode placed between the cell electrolyte and the solution to be tested. The hydrophobic pores in TLGE serve as a gas chamber. After the sampling period, in which the partial pressure of dissolved oxygen in test solution becomes in equilibrium with that in the gas chamber, the TLGE is polarized with square wave or linear potential signal. Then the Faradaic charge (Q) consumed in depletion of the oxygen contained in pores of TLGE is measured. The main merits of this system are good linearity between the partial pressure of dissolved oxygen in test solution and Q, low zero-reading, negligible liquid-gas difference, convenient calibration and very low temperature coefficient (ca. 0.5%/°C). This technique can also be applied to the measurement of oxygen partial pressure in gas phases. 相似文献
Studies on the decomposition rates of the Mn(III) complex of cyclohexanediaminetetra-acetate (DCTA) in light and in darkness have shown that this complex is more stable than the one derived from ethylenediaminetetra-acetate. The optimum pH range for the determination of dissolved oxygen by means of the Mn(III)-DCTA complex is found to be between 3 and 4. The absorbance of this complex is independent of the amount of DCTA used (in the range 0.2–1.0 g) with water samples containing a maximum of 3.2 ppm of dissolved oxygen. Significant interferences are caused by the presence of CO2−3, HCO−3, S2O2−3, PO3−4, I−, NO−2, SO2−3, Ca2+, Fe2+ and Fe3+ at 500 times the oxygen concentration. 相似文献
Magnetic nanoparticles have been attracting much interest as a labeling material in the fields of advanced biological and
medical applications such as drug delivery, magnetic resonance imaging, and array-based assaying. In this review, synthesis
of iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles via a reverse micelle system and modification of their surface by an organosilane agent
are discussed. Furthermore, as a practical biological assay system, the magnetic detection of biomolecular interactions is
demonstrated by using the combination of a patterned substrate modified with a self-assembled monolayer and the magnetic nanoparticles. 相似文献
We have developed a simple and sensitive strategy for colorimetric LSD1 enzyme activity assay using avidin modified gold nanoparticles. The strategy is based on the vivid color change of a gold nanoparticle solution from red to violet upon addition of a test solution of peptide-antibody treated with LSD1. Thus, the presence of LSD1 in a sample can be determined by simple visual inspection with the naked eye. In addition, a wide range of LSD1 concentrations (13 pM to 0.13 μM) were quantitatively determined by spectrophotometry, which shows the possibility of quantitative analysis of the over expression levels of LSD1 in cancer tissue samples. 相似文献
Green synthesis of pure nickel oxide nanoparticles (nano-NiO) in aqueous medium has been carried out using gelatin. The particles have been characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray (EDAX). Gelatin plays an important role in the formation of the nano-NiO. TEM image shows the formation of nano-NiO with average particle size 16 nm, which agrees well with the XRD data. Moreover, efficient and stable nano-NiO-based anodes were fabricated by casting of the nano-NiO and multi-walled carbon nanotube solution (NiO-MWNT) on glassy carbon (NiO-MWNT/GC), platine (NiO-MWNT/Pt), and carbon paste (NiO-MWNT/CP) electrodes. The electrocatalysis of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at modified electrodes has been examined using linear scanning voltammetry (LSV). The OER is significantly enhanced upon modification of the electrodes with NiO-MWNT, as demonstrated by a negative shift in the LSV curves at the NiO-MWNT-modified electrodes compared to that obtained at the unmodified ones. The maximum electrocatalytic activity toward the OER was obtained in alkaline media. The values of energy saving of oxygen gas at a current density of 5 mA cm?2 Pt, CP, and GC electrodes are 14.1, 16.0, and 21.6 kW h kg?1, respectively. The low cost as well as the marked stability of the modified electrodes makes them promising candidates in industrial water electrolysis process. 相似文献

Peptide-stabilized gold nanoparticles have been enzymatically biotinylated by a kinase-catalyzed reaction using biotin-ATP as a cosubstrate. Upon mixing with avidin-modified particles, solutions of biotinylated particles change color from red to blue, indicating aggregation of particles. On the basis of this reaction, we have developed a simple colorimetric test to monitor kinase inhibitor activity. 相似文献
Summary
Indirect Determination of Oxygen Dissolved in Water by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry
O2 dissolved in aqueous medium reacts quantitatively with thallium metal according to O2+4 Tl+2 H2O 4 Tl++4 OH–. The reaction takes place in a glass column filled up with small pieces of sheet metal. The Tl+ formed is measured by atomic absorption spectrometry. We study the influence of several factors (pH, temperature, salinity of the water). The results obtained from a statistical sample were compared with those provided by the amperometric method for direct determination of dissolved O2 and we found a high degree of consistency between them. 相似文献
A new method is proposed for the determination of dissolved oxygen in water. The iron(III) formed from FES at pH 7.5 is titrated with EDTA solution in presence of salicylic acid indicator after adjustment of the pH to about 2.4 The method is slightly less precise than the Winkler method for pure waters but more accurate for polluted waters; it is simple and convenient for field use. 相似文献
A new series of iridium(III) mixed ligand complexes TBA[Ir(ppy)(2)(CN)(2)] (1), TBA[Ir(ppy)(2)(NCS)(2)] (2), TBA[Ir(ppy)(2)(NCO)(2)] (3), and [Ir(ppy)(2)(acac)] (4) (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine; acac = acetoylacetonate, TBA = tetrabutylammonium cation) have been developed and fully characterized by UV-vis, emission, IR, NMR, and cyclic voltammetric studies. The lowest energy MLCT transitions are tuned from 463 to 494 nm by tuning the energy of the HOMO levels. These complexes show emission maxima in the blue, green, and yellow region of the visible spectrum and exhibit unprecedented phosphorescence quantum yields, 97 +/- 3% with an excited-state lifetimes of 1-3 micros in dichloromethane solution at 298 K. The near-unity quantum yields of these complexes are related to an increased energy gap between the triplet emitting state and the deactivating e(g) level that have been achieved by meticulous selection of ligands having strong ligand field strength. Organic light-emitting devices were fabricated using the complex 4 doped into a purified 4,4'-bis(carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl host exhibiting a maximum of the external quantum efficiencies of 13.2% and a power efficiency of 37 lm/W for the 9 mol % doped system. 相似文献
