The assembly of alternating DNA and positively charged poly‐(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) (PDDA) multilayer films by electrostatic layer‐by‐layer adsorption has been studied. Real time surface plasmon resonance (BIAcore) technique was used to characterize and monitor the formation of multilayer films in solution in real time continuously. The results indicate that the uniform multilayer can be obtained on the poly‐(ethylenimine) (PEI) coated substrate surface. The kinetics of the adsorption of DNA on PDDA surface was also studied by real‐time BIAcore technique, and the observed rate constant was calculated using a Langmuir model (kobs = (1.28 ± 0.08) × 10?2s?1). 相似文献
Novel multilayer thin films that consist solely of cross‐linked single component layers are generated by a selective cross‐linking of the poly(vinyl amine) (PVAm) layers in [PVAm/poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)]n thin films constructed either on silica particles or silicon wafers, followed by the removal of PAA. The surface topography of the (PVAm)n multilayer thin films, before and after the adsorption of human serum albumin (HSA), has been studied by atomic force microscopy on the freeze‐dried films. The decrease of the average roughness of the film after the adsorption of HSA showed the protein was adsorbed into the (PVAm)n film making these films potential reservoirs for proteins.
Weak polyelectrolytes poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were assembled into {PAH/PAA}n layer‐by‐layer films on electrodes. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) response of ferrocenecarboxylic acid (Fc(COOH)) at {PAH/PAA}5 film electrodes assembled under the specific condition showed pH‐sensitive “on‐off” switching property. This property was further used to control the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose by glucose oxidase (GOD) with Fc(COOH) as the electron transfer mediator, so that the pH‐switchable bioelectrocatalysis could be realized. The mechanism of pH‐sensitive behavior of the system was explored and believed to originate from the pH‐dependent structure change of the films. 相似文献
Membrane technology has been successfully applied for the removal of dyes from wastewater in the textile industry. A novel poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membrane was prepared via blending with different dosages of Ag‐TiO2‐APTES composite for dyeing waste water treatment in our study. And the effect of Ag‐TiO2‐APTES blended into the PVDF membrane was discussed, including the rejection rate of methylene blue (MB) dye, membrane morphology, surface hydrophilicity, antibacterial activity, and a certain photocatalytic self‐cleaning performance. X‐ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared characterization confirmed that Ag‐TiO2 was functionalized by amount of hydroxyl group (−OH) and amino group (NH−), which provided by APTES. Contact angle measurement certified that the hydrophilicity of the membrane surface increased, with the contact angle decrease to 61.4° compared with 81.8° of original PVDF membrane. MB rejection rate was also increased to 90.1% after addition of Ag‐TiO2‐APTES, and the rejection of original membrane was only 74.3%. The morphologies of membranes were observed by scanning electron microscope, which indicated that Ag‐TiO2‐APTES had a good dispersion in membrane matrix and also improved the microstructure of membranes. Besides, UV irradiation experiments were performed on the composite films contaminated by MB, and the result showed that Ag‐TiO2‐APTES nanoparticle provided PVDF membrane with a certain photodegradation capacity under UV irradiation. Moreover, antibacterial activity of the composite membrane was also demonstrated through antibacterial experiment, Escherichia coli as the representative bacteria. Perhaps, this research may provide a new way for PVDF blending modification. 相似文献
Multilayer films consisting of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and ferrocene‐modified poly(ethyleneimine) (Fc‐PEI) or poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (Fc‐PAH) were successfully prepared on a gold electrode to examine their redox properties. The redox current of (Fc‐PEI/CMC)n film‐coated electrodes increased with the number of layers, while the (Fc‐PAH/CMC)n film‐coated electrodes exhibited increased response only for the first eight bilayers. The (Fc‐PEI/CMC)n and (Fc‐PAH/CMC)n films deposited on the surface of Fc‐free multilayer film‐coated electrodes also showed a redox response. The (PEI/CMC)5 film‐coated electrode showed redox responses in Fc‐PEI and Fc‐PAH solutions, confirming the uptake of the Fc‐polymers in the inner film. In contrast, the uptake of the Fc‐polymers in the (PAH/CMC)5 film was severely suppressed, suggesting that different permeability of (PEI/CMC)5 and (PAH/CMC)5 films. 相似文献
Summary: We report an artful method to form a stable pattern of chiral polyaniline nanocomposites (CPANs). It consists of the preparation of a diazoresin (DR)/poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) thin buffer layer on an Si substrate by self‐assembly, followed by the deposition of a multi‐layer film by spin‐assembly, leading to the formation of a (DR/PAA)2DR/(CPAN/DR)n film on the substrate. After selective exposure to UV light through a photomask and the development process, a defined pattern is formed.

Transparent and flexible gas‐barrier materials have shown broad applications in electronics, food, and pharmaceutical preservation. Herein, we report ultrahigh‐gas‐barrier films with a brick–mortar–sand structure fabricated by layer‐by‐layer (LBL) assembly of XAl‐layered double hydroxide (LDH, X=Mg, Ni, Zn, Co) nanoplatelets and polyacrylic acid (PAA) followed by CO2 infilling, denoted as (XAl‐LDH/PAA)n‐CO2. The near‐perfectly parallel orientation of the LDH “brick” creates a long diffusion length to hinder the transmission of gas molecules in the PAA “mortar”. Most significantly, both the experimental studies and theoretical simulations reveal that the chemically adsorbed CO2 acts like “sand” to fill the free volume at the organic–inorganic interface, which further depresses the diffusion of permeating gas. The strategy presented here provides a new insight into the perception of barrier mechanism, and the (XAl‐LDH/PAA)n‐CO2 film is among the best gas barrier films ever reported. 相似文献
In this work, myoglobin (Mb) and sulfonated‐β‐cyclodextrin (S‐CD) were assembled into {S‐CD/Mb}n layer‐by‐layer films on solid substrates. In pH 7.0 buffers, the {S‐CD/Mb}n films assembled on electrodes showed a pair of well‐defined and nearly reversible CV peaks at about ?0.35 V vs. SCE. The stable CV response of {S‐CD/Mb}n films could be used to electrocatalyze reduction of oxygen and hydrogen peroxide in solution. For comparison, another modified β‐cyclodextrin, carboxyethyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (C‐CD), was also assembled with Mb into {C‐CD/Mb}n multilayer films. The driving forces of the assembly were explored and discussed. 相似文献
A ferrocene‐labeled high molecular weight coenzyme derivative (PEI‐Fc‐NAD) and a thermostable NAD‐dependent L ‐lysine 6‐dehydrogenase (LysDH) from thermophile Geobacillus stearothermophilus were used to fabricate a reagentless L ‐lysine sensor. Both LysDH and PEI‐Fc‐NAD were immobilized on the surface of a gold electrode by consecutive layer‐by‐layer adsorption (LBL) technique. By the simple LBL method, the reagentless L ‐lysine sensor, with co‐immobilization of the mediator, coenzyme, and enzyme was obtained, which exhibited current response to L ‐lysine without the addition of native coenzyme to the analysis system. The amperometric response of the sensor was dependent on the applied potential, bilayer number of PEI‐Fc‐NAD/LysDH, and substrate concentration. A linear current response, proportional to L ‐lysine concentration in the range of 1–120 mM was observed. The response of the sensor to L ‐lysine was decreased by 30% from the original activity after one month storage. 相似文献
In this work, we report the development of a highly sensitive capacitance chemical sensor based on a copper C,C,C,C‐ tetra‐carboxylic phthalocyanine‐acrylate polymer adduct (Cu(II)TCPc‐PAA) for phosphate ions detection. A capacitance silicon nitride substrate based Al−Cu/Si‐p/SiO2/Si3N4 structure was used as transducer. These materials have provided good stability of electrochemical measurements. The functionalized silicon‐based transducers with a Cu(II)Pc‐PAA membrane were characterized by using Mott‐Schottky technique measurements at different frequency ranges and for different phosphate concentrations. The morphological surface of the Cu(II)Pc‐PAA modified silicon‐nitride based transducer was characterized by contact angle measurements and atomic force microscopy. The pH effect was also investigated by the Mott‐Schottcky technique for different Tris‐HCl buffer solutions. The sensitivity of silicon nitride was studied at different pH of Tris‐HCl buffer solutions. This pH test has provided a sensitivity value of 51 mV/decade. The developed chemical sensor showed a good performance for phosphate ions detection within the range of 10−10 to 10−5 M with a Nernstian sensitivity of 27.7 mV/decade. The limit of detection of phosphate ions was determined at 1 nM. This chemical sensor was highly specific for phosphate ions when compared to other interfering ions as chloride, sulfate, carbonate and perchlorate. The present capacitive chemical sensor is thus very promising for sensitive and rapid detection of phosphate in environmental applications. 相似文献
