PREPARATIVE AND STRUCTURAL STUDIES ON THE SUPERCONDUCTING PHASE YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-d)

Reasonably homogeneous samples were obtained by following the formula Y_(0.334)Ba_(0.666)CuO_(3-y) andusing citric acid as a complex-forming agent to improve the dispersion of the metal oxides. We havealso found that the variant condition in preparative procedure leads to variant deviation from tetrago-nality and that more pronounced deviation gives better superconducting properties. The crystal structure determined from X-ray powder diffraction diagrams confirms the stoichiom-etry of the metal ions and gives the positions of the oxygen atoms. The orthorhombic or pseudo-tetragonal unit cell with a=3.893, b= 3.813 and c= 11.687 A contains YBa_2Cu_3O_7. It is composed ofthree perovskite cubes with three copper atoms at their corners, the two barium atoms at the centers ofthe top and bottom cubes, and the yttrium at the center of the unit cell. The oxygen atoms sit on centersof cube edges. The positions (0 0 1/2) are vacant. The vacancies represented by (0(1/2)0) cause the ar-rangement of atoms to lose tetragonal symmetry, and have far-reaching effect for this phase. The yttriumand barium atoms are coordinated in a cuboctahedron respectively with four equatoria oxygen atoms at(0 0 1/2) and two at (0 1/2 0) removed. In the light of bond valence theory we can infer from the in-teratomic distances Y-O, Ba-O and Cu-O that the occupancy of the oxygen atoms at (1/2 0 0) is wellbelow unity while the positions (0 0 1/2) are vacant, the formula of the phase is YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-d), thefraction of Cu(Ⅱ) and (Ⅲ) for the set of copper at (0 0 0) is respectively d/0.5 and (1-d/0.5), and0.2相似文献   

Binding equilibrium study between Mn( Ⅱ ) and HSA or BSA

The binding of Mn( Ⅱ ) to human serum albumin (HSA) or bovine serum albumin (BSA) has been studied by equilibrium dialysis at physiological pH (7. 43). The Scatchard analysis indicates that there are 1.8 and 1.9 strong binding sites of Mn( Ⅱ ) in HSA and BSA, respectively. The successive stability constants which are reported for the first time are obtained by non-linear least-squares methods fitting Bjerrum formula. For both Mn( Ⅱ )-HSA and Mn( Ⅱ )-BSA systems, the order of magnitude of K1 was found to be 104. The analyses of Hill plots and free energy coupling show that the positive cooperative effect was found in both Mn( Ⅱ )-HSA and Mn( Ⅱ )-BSA systems . The results of Mn ( Ⅱ ) competing with Cu ( Ⅱ ) 、 Zn(Ⅱ)、Cd( Ⅱ) or Ca( Ⅱ ) to bind to HSA or BSA further support the conjecture that there are two strong binding sites of Mn( Ⅱ) in both HSA and BSA. One is most probably located at the tripeptide segment of N- terminal sequence of HSA and BSA molecules involving four groups composed of n     

Mineralization of 4-Chlorophenol under Visible Light Irradiation in the Presence of Aluminum and Zinc Phthalocyaninesulfonates

Photosensitized oxidation of 4-chlorophenol (4CP) by the title complexes (AIPcS and ZnPcS) in aerated aqueous solution uponvisible light irradiation(λ=450nm) has been investigated using methanol as a disassociating reagent.It is confirmed that the monomeric species of the sesitizer is more active than the corresponding dimer in singlet oxygen generation for 4CP oxidation.However,the monomer is also the main component found in the sensitlzer‘s photobleaching, In this reload, AIPcS is much more stable than ZnPcS, and the Dhotoble~hlno is observed to proceed via singlet and triplet oxygen, respectlvely.The final products of 4CP oxidation in alkaline solution are carbon dioxide and chloride ions.while at pH=7 and pH=3 the p-benzoquinone is the product.The temperature is found to have influence on both the photosensitized degradation of methyl orange and ZnPcS photobleaching,with an activation energy of 15.8 and 24.2kJ/mol,respectively.     

Complexation of radionuclide ~(152+154)Eu(Ⅲ) with alumina-bound fulvic acid studied by batch and time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy

To contribute to the understanding of Eu(Ⅲ)interaction properties on hydrous alumina particles in the absence and presence of fulvic acid(FA),the complexation properties of Eu(Ⅲ)with hydrous alumina,FA and FA-alumina hybrids are studied by batch and time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy(TRLFS)techniques.The continuous increase in the fluorescence lifetime of Eu-alumina and Eu-FA with increasing pH indicates that the complexation is accompanied by decreasing number of hydration water in the first coordination sphere of Eu(Ⅲ).Eu(Ⅲ)is adsorbed onto alumina particles as outer-sphere surface complexes of≡(Al-O)-Eu·(OH)·7H_2O and≡(Al-O)-Eu·6H_2O at low pH values,and as inner-sphere surface complexes as≡(Al-O)_2-Eu~+·4H_2O at high pH.In FA solution,Eu(Ⅲ)forms complexes with FA as(COO)_2Eu~+(H_2O)_x and the hydration water number in the first coordination sphere decreases with pH increasing.The formation of≡COO-Eu-(O-Al≡)·4H_2O is observed on FA-alumina hybrids,suggesting the formation of strong inner-sphere surface complexes in the presence of FA.The surface complexes are also characterized by their emission spectra[the ratio of emission intensities of~5D_0→~7F_1(λ=594nm)and~5D_0→~7F_2(λ=619nm)transitions]and their fluorescence lifetime.The findings is important to understand the contribution of FA in the complexation properties of Eu(Ⅲ)on FA-alumina hybrids that the clarification of the environmental behavior of humic substances is necessary to understand fully the behavior of Eu(Ⅲ),or its analogue trivalent lanthanide and actinide ions in natural environment.     

Changes of decay rates of radioactive <Superscript>111</Superscript>In and <Superscript>32</Superscript>P induced by mechanic motion

The changes of decay rates of radionuclide 111in (electron capture) and 32p (β decay) induced by external mechanic motion are studied. The results indicate that, in the external circular rotation in clockwise and anticlockwise centrifuge on Northern Hemisphere (radius 8 cm, 2000 r/min), the half life of 111in compared with the referred (2.83 d) is decreased at 2.83% and increased at 1.77%, respectively; the half life of 32P compared with the referred (14.29 d) is decreased at 3.78% and increased at 1.75%, respectively. When the clockwise and anticlockwise rotations increase to 4000 r/min, the half life of 111in is decreased at 11.31% and increased at 6.36%, respectively; the half life of 32P is decreased at 10.08% and increased at 4.34%, respectively. When the circular rotation is removed, the decay rates of 111in and 32P return back to the referred, respectively. It is found that the external circular rotations in clockwise and anticlockwise centrifuge selectively increased and decreased the decay rates of 111in and 32p, respectively, and the effects are strongly dependent on the strength of circular rotation. It is suggested that these effects may be caused by the chiral interaction.     

Purification and Characterization of Cyclic AMP-Binding Protein from Ganoderma lucidum

Cyclic AMP-binding protein was purified 30 fold from the mycelia of Ganoderma lucidum by the methods of ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose, phospho-cellulose ion exchange chromatography and Sephacryl S-100 gel filtration. The molecular mass of the purified protein is 34.5 kDa and 17 kDa by Sephacryl S-100 gel filtration and SDS-ployacrylamide gel electrophoresis, respectively. From these results it is suggested that the protein has a homometric dimmer structure. The pI of the purified protein is pH 8.2 by native isoelectric focusing gel. The half-life of the protein activity in 10% glycerol at 4 ℃ is 7 d in crude extract, but its half-life is only 3 d under purifying conditions. The optimal conditions of the protein activity are at 1 ℃ and pH 7.5. Its activity is increased 6 times by 1 mmol/L Zn^2 and is slightly inhibited by cGMP,Cu^2 and Mn^2 .

When the circular rotation is removed,the decay rates of 111In and 32P return back to the referred,respectively. It is found that the external circular rotations in clockwise and anticlockwise centrifuge selectively increased and decreased the decay rates of 111In and 32P,respec-tively,and the effects are strongly dependent on the strength of circular rotation. It is suggested that these effects may be caused by the chiral interaction.

Adsorption of phenylalanine from aqueous solution onto active carbon and silica gel

The adsorption isotherms of phenylalanine from aqueous solution on active carbon andsilica gel at varying pH,and the influence of inorganic salt upon the ad rption have been studied(at 25℃).The adsorption amount of phcnylalanine on the silica gel is very low due to the strong ad-sorption of water by silica gel.The results on the active carbon show:(1)The adsorption is found to bepH-dependent,within pH 4.1—5.1 it increases with pH,within pH 5.1—11.8 it decreases with pH,atpH 5.1 the adsorption reaches its maximum;(2)The phenylalanine is adsorbed mainly in the formof zwitterion;(3)A certain amount of cations and anions of phenylalanine are also adsorbed with vander Waals interaction;(4)After adding NaCl,the adsorption of phenylalanine increases markedly.     

A novel liquid chromatographic method with fluorescence detection for quantitation of tadalafil and dapoxetine hydrochloride in pharmaceutical dosage form and human plasma北大核心CSCD

Tadalafil( TAD)and dapoxetine HCl( DAP)are recently co-formulated and both show native fluo-rescence. Therefore,a novel,accurate,specific and sensitive reversed-phase high performance liquid chroma-tographic method with fluorescence detection was developed and validated for their separation and quantitation in dosage form and human plasma using avanafil as an internal standard( IS). Separation was achieved using isocratic elution within 7. 0 min on C18 column and acetonitrile-0. 15% triethylamine( 40∶60,v/v;pH 4)as a mobile phase. The flow rate was 1. 0 mL/min and the detection was time-programmed at 330,410 and 370 nm for TAD,DAP and IS,respectively,after excitation at 236 nm. The linear ranges from 0. 01 to 30. 00 μg/mL for each drug with the limits of detection of 4. 20 and 7. 20 ng/mL for TAD and DAP,respectively. The method was validated in accordance to the International Conference on Harmonization( ICH)guidelines and was successful-ly applied to spiked human plasma with mean recoveries of 98. 17% and 98. 83% for TAD and DAP respectively.     

Thin-layer agarose isoelectric focusing of alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes from human neutrophils

An improved method for thin-layer agarose isoelectric focusing of alkaline phosphatases (AP) from human neutrophils is described. The solubilization of AP isoenzymes was studied with four detergents. The best results were obtained after sonication with Zwittergent 3-12 (1% final concentration), followed by butanol extraction and ultracentrifugation 105,000 x g for 1 h. The cytosol can be stored at 0 degrees C or -80 degrees C, but not at -20 degrees C. Dialysis of the cytosol against a Tris buffer, pH 7.5, was imperative prior to focusing for removal of the detergent. Enzyme visualization is enhanced by incorporation of ZnCl2 (3 mM) into the agarose gel. The focusing patterns consist of two sets of isoenzymes: two main zones with pI 6.4 and 6.8 and minor components with pI 4.2, 4.8 and 5.2.

Trypsin activity assay in substrate-specific one- and two-dimensional gels: a powerful method to separate and characterize novel proteases in active form in biological samples

To separate and identify the proteases, a substrate-specific, sensitive assay in sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gels after two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoresis has been developed. This method allows simultaneous determination of protease cleavage specificity, molecular weight, isoelectric point, and if necessary, amino acid sequencing. After isoelectric focusing in immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips (pH 6-11) (first dimension), trypsin was electrophoresed in 12% SDS polyacrylamide gels (second dimension) copolymerized with Boc-Gln-Ala-Arg-MCA (4-methyl-coumaryl-7-amide). The gels were washed in cold 2.5% Triton X-100 and water, and incubated in assay buffer (6.3 mM Bicine, 100 mM NaCl). Trypsin cleavage of the peptide-MCA generated fluorescent 7-amino-4-methyl-coumarin. In 1-D gels, as low as 500 pg trypsin could be detected and trypsin band volumes correlated linearly with the amounts of trypsin (R(2) = 0.999). In 2-D gels, the lowest amount of trypsin detected was 1 ng. The linear regression of spot volume and loading amount was still good (R(2) = 0.974). To optimize renaturation conditions, 5x5 min washes with 2.5% Triton X-100 and water, respectively, gave the strongest band volume. For fluorescence development, an assay buffer at pH 9 was the best; incubation at 37 degrees C for 30 min was sufficient. The method has application for identifying novel proteases as it does not rely on antibodies.     

Effect of the Buffer Concentration on the Separation of Lactate Dehydrogenase Isoenzymes from Different Sources by Electrophoresis

Abstract

The separation of lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes by zone electrophoresis using cellulose acetate strips as support was dependent on the concentration of the buffer used (5 mM and 50 mM, pH 7.4) and on the source of the material (chicken liver or guinea-pig liver).

In three different 5 mM buffer systems, pH 7.4 (phosphate, veronal and Tris-HC1) the four lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes present in chicken liver cytosol: M₃H, M₂H₂, MH₃ and H₄ were resolved into four separated bands. M₃H and M₂H₂ isoenzymes migrated towards the cathode whereas the other two isoenzymes showed anodic mobilities. In 50 mM buffers, pH 7.4 all enzyme activity appeared as a single band with anodic mobility similar to that of H₄. Guinea-pig liver isoenzymes were well resolved in both buffer conditions and appeared as five bands with anodic mobilities.

The different behaviour of the lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes in 5 mM and 50 mM buffers can not be assigned to ionic strength effects but it may explained by assuming the binding of buffer anions to the different isoenzymes. The binding would increase with the molar concentration of the buffer and reduce charge differences among the isoenzymes to different extents depending on the source of the enzyme, chicken or guinea-pig liver.

Enzyme visualization with partially dehydrated agarose substrate layers: detection of paraoxonase after thin-layer isoelectric focusing in agarose

A new approach is described for studying the polymorphism of paraoxon hydrolyzing serum esterases after isoelectric focusing of native sera. Enzyme visualization is performed by a modified sandwich procedure which is faster and also affords higher resolution and considerably improved sensitivity. Up to seven paraoxon splitting isoenzymes can be visualized and clearly distinguished from arylesterases and phosphatases by using 3-naphtyl acetate, paraoxon, 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl acetate and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate as substrates. The new technique is also able to differentiate between paraoxonase isoenzymes sensitive to EDTA and those which are EDTA-stable. Immunofixation with anti-human serum albumin-antibodies revealed similar isoelectric points for these isoenzymes, although they are not assumed to be identical. The new technique may prove useful in other applications of enzyme visualization where diffusion of enzymes and/or cleavage products is the major problem.     

A pH-study of n-dodecyl-beta-D-maltoside foam films

The influence the pH has on the properties of foam films stabilized by the nonionic surfactant n-dodecyl-beta-d-maltoside (beta-C12G2) was studied. Foam film measurements were carried out with the thin film pressure balance (TFPB) technique using two different film holders, namely, the Scheludko-Exerowa cell and the porous plate. With the former, the equilibrium film thickness h at a given capillary pressure Pc and, with the latter, complete disjoining pressure versus thickness curves (Pi-h curves) were measured. Most of the results were obtained for 10(-4) and 10(-5) M beta-C12G2 solutions that contained 10(-3) M electrolyte. Measurements were carried out in a pH range from 3 to 9. The major results are the following: (1) For a given pH, a pronounced effect of the surfactant concentration cs is seen only if cs approximately cmc. This holds true for both low and high pH values. (2) For a given cs, at least one pronounced effect is seen if the pH is changed, namely a drop of the surface charge density down to zero when the isoelectric point (pH* and pHcr) is reached. (3) The pH of the isoelectric point increases with increasing surfactant concentration. (4) The q0-pH curve of beta-C12G2 shows two pH ranges (3-5.5 and 7-10) in which the surface charge density q0 is pH-insensitive, while a significant change of q0 was observed between pH=5.5 and 7.0. A possible explanation is given.     

Dynamic labeling of diagnostically significant microbial cells in cerebrospinal fluid by red chromophoric non-ionogenic surfactant for capillary electrophoresis separations

During bacterial infections of the central nervous system the number of microorganisms in the cerebrospinal fluid is often ranging from few up to hundreds of cells per milliliter. The electrophoretic techniques with the UV-detection reach a detection limit for whole cells of approximately 10⁷ cells per milliliter. The coupling of the filtration cartridge with capillary isoelectric focusing can improve the detection limit by four orders of magnitude. In order to improve the detection limit the red non-ionogenic surfactant 1-[[4-(phenylazo)phenyl]azo]-2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid polyethylene glycol ester, PAPAN 1000, has been prepared and used for the dynamic labeling of analytes before filtration of the sample with a concentration modulation in the analysis of proteins or microorganisms. Values of isoelectric points of labeled analytes have been calculated using pI markers detectable at 515 nm and have been found comparable with pI of the native compounds. Minimum detectable amounts of proteins and microorganisms were lower than nanograms and a hundred labeled cells, respectively. The introduced method, coupling of the filtration cerebrospinal fluid spiked with microorganisms and labeled by PAPAN, facilitates their rapid CIEF separation in the pH gradient pH range of 2–5 at their clinically important level 10¹ to 10² cells per milliliter.
