用DETC铁络合物捕捉生物组织NO自由基的ESR波谱解析

一氧化氮自由基具有重要的生物功能.但目前使用的自旋捕捉剂都不能有效捕捉细胞和组织体系产生的一氧化氮自由基.实验表明DETC(mononitrosyl dithiocarbamate)铁络合物可以有效捕捉生物体系产生的一氧化氮自由基,但用DETC在细胞和组织体系检测一氧化氮自由基需要在低温检测.生物组织在低温的ESR波谱和DETC铁络合物捕捉的一氧化氮自由基的ESR波谱互相重叠,使谱线解析有一定困难.本文分析了用DETC铁络合物检测细胞和组织体系产生一氧化氮自由基在低温可能出现的ESR信号的g值和超精细分裂常数.提出了克服使用DETC铁络合物检测生物体系一氧化氮自由基困难的方法.

ESR自旋捕集技术的发展和在生物医学研究中的应用

ESR是研究自由基最直接和最有效的技术,但是这些自由基必须是相对稳定的,而且要达到一定浓度才能用ESR技术检测和研究. 而生物体系中产生的自由基大部分是不稳定的,这是常规ESR波谱仪无法检测的. 为了克服ESR技术的这一局限性,发展了自旋捕集技术,这是目前研究生物和医学体系中活泼自由基应用最多也是最成功的方法, 每年都有新的自旋捕集剂合成和大量在生物医学应用的报道,为自由基生物医学的研究和发展做出了巨大贡献.  作者建立和发展了捕捉超氧阴离子自由基、羟基自由基、脂质过氧化产生的脂类自由基、一氧化氮自由基和单线态氧及一氧化氮和氧自由基同时检测技术. 利用这些技术开展了细胞、组织产生自由基机理,天然抗氧化剂的筛选及一些重大疾病如炎症、心脏病、老年痴呆症、帕金森综合症,中风,辐射损伤,蛋白质氧化,植物光合系统中产生活性自由基和植物的发病机理研究中的应用,取得了一系列研究结果.

Electron Spin Resonance study of gamma irradiated MA-AMPS copolymer

Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) spectra of gamma irradiated methylacrylamide-2-acrylamido-2-methyl-propanesulphonic acid (MA-AMPS) are recorded to identify the radical species formed during the irradiation of the copolymer. The ESR spectrum observed for irradiated MA-AMPS copolymer at liquid nitrogen temperature (LNT) (77 r K) is an asymmetric triplet; while the spectrum observed at room temperature (RT) is a quintet. The intensity distribution of both the spectra deviated appreciably from the expected theoretical values. Computer simulations are employed to analyze the ESR spectra observed at different temperatures. The triplet spectrum observed at LNT is simulated to be a superposition of component spectra arising from macroradicals of the type～CH 2 - \dot {\rm C} H-CH 2 ～ (I), radicals of the type \dot {\rm C} H 2 SO 3 H (II), and peroxy radicals (III). In contrast, the RT spectrum is simulated to be a superposition of component spectra arising due to radicals I, II, III together with the component quartet assigned to methyl radicals ( \dot {\rm C} H 3 ). The formation of such free radicals in irradiated copolymer is discussed.

卷烟烟气中活性自由基的自旋捕获ESR研究

卷烟烟气中的瞬态自由基对人体健康是相当有害的，而检测活性自由基最常用的方法是自旋捕获方法. 本研究中使用高效新型捕捉剂DEPMPO能够直接在水相中捕捉到烷基自由基与羟基自由基，并未发现烷氧自由基加合物. 考虑到DEPMPO对活性自由基的捕捉能力和加合物ESR谱图解析特征性都优于PBN与DMPO，且在有机溶剂中溶解较多的氧分子. 因此认为以往文献中所捕获的烷氧自由基来源于烷基自由基氧化后的次级自由基产物.     

Electron spin resonance in X-irradiated single crystal of strontium tartrate tetrahydrate

The electron spin resonance spectra of an irradiated single crystal of strontium tartrate tetrahydrate (SrC₄H₄O₆·4H₂O) grown from silica gel have been investigated. Two species of free radical were observed at room and liquid nitrogen temperatures. The free radicals were found to be the result of the splitting of a C-H bond of the tartrate ions contained in the unit cell. The unpaired electron of each radical specie interacts with two nonequivalent protons giving rise to hyperfine splittings of relatively small magnitude. The g factors of the radicals were found to be almost isotropic and have similar values and it was very difficult to determine the ESR parameters from experimental patterns directly. A least-squares method, proposed earlier, was used to analyze the observed experimental patterns at various orientations.The existence of two nonequivalent radicals is believed to be the result of the nonplanarity of the two halves of the tartrate ions. The H nuclei giving rise to the hyperfine splittings are the protons of the hydroxyl groups attached directly to the unsaturated carbon atoms and those attached directly to the other asymmetric carbon atoms (β protons). The principal elements of the hyperfine splittings for the observed radicals were: Radical I: ?9.02, ? 2.84, ?0.47 and ?1.66, ?1.54, ?0.89. Radical II: ?10.16, ?7.83, ? 1.51 and 0.00, ?1.58, ?1.06. The radicals were found to be very stable, the ESR patterns being undiminished for more than six months after the irradiation.     

Composition,temperature and radiation induced changes in gamma irradiated AAAMPS copolymer

Effect of composition, temperature and radiation dose in gamma irradiated acrylamide-2-acrylamido-2-methyl propane sulphonic acid (AA) copolymer has been investigated by electron spin resonance (ESR) and fourier transform infrared (FTIR) techniques. ESR spectra of gamma irradiated AA copolymer have been recorded under different conditions. The observed ESR spectra are analysed by computer simulation techniques, to separate the constituent component spectra. Magnetic parameters employed to simulate the component spectra enabled the identification of corresponding free radicals. The AA copolymer with low acrylamide content composed of macroradicals of the type ?CH₂?CH?CH₂? and methyl radicals (CH₃) whereas the copolymer with high acryl amide content possess methyl radicals and radicals of the type ?CH₂?C(CONH₂)?CH₂?/CH₃?C?CH₃. Reasons for the variation in the formation of free radicals have been explained. The observed changes in ESR spectra of irradiated AA copolymer at higher temperatures are thought to be due to the recombination of free radicals. Formation of free radicals found to be enhanced with the increase in dose of irradiation. FTIR spectra of pure and irradiated copolymers have also confirmed the previous results.     

醛类的光分解与光氧化初级过程的ESR研究 取代苯甲醛的研究

The electron spin resonance of polycarbonate track detectors

Polycarbonate films are widely used as solid state track detectors (SSTDs) of radiation, but as yet our knowledge of the microscopic nature of the latent track is limited. The processes of chemical etching and thermal annealing are not fully understood. The lack of stability of track parameters bears on the accuracy of the charge determination of energetic heavy nuclei.

We have applied the technique of electron spin resonance, (ESR) in order to seek a correlation between the density of tracks and the growth and decay of free radicals detected by ESR. Samples of polycarbonate were irradiated with thermal neutrons and then etched progressively with NaOH. The ESR signal increased initially and then became weaker as the bulk of the polycarbonate was removed. Other samples were annealed after partial etching. ESR monitoring of this annealing showed that free radicals were recombining, probably due to diffusion processes.
