Soyasaponins were shown to have a wide range of biological activities in previous studies; however, the activities of their monomeric compounds are unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antioxidant activities of soyasaponins in HepG2 cells. Four soyasaponins were isolated from soy hypocotyls and identified as soyasaponin Aa, Ab, Ba, and Bb. The protective effects of these soyasaponins against production of hydrogen peroxide-induced reactive oxygen species in cells were investigated. The cellular antioxidant activity of soyasaponins was found to be in a dose-dependent manner at concentrations ranging between 25 and 400 μg/mL in 24 h. Finally, based on cell morphology observations, group A soyasaponins showed better cellular antioxidant activity and anti-oxidative enzyme activity than group B ones, with an optimal concentration of 100 μg/mL. 相似文献
A microbe with desulfurizing capability, Alicyclobacillus sp., was selected to recycle waste latex rubber (WLR). The growth characteristics of the microorganism and the technical conditions in the co-culture desulfurization process were studied. The desulfurization effect of Alicyclobacillus sp. on the WLR was characterized, and the mechanism for the microbial desulfurization of WLR was tentatively explored. The results showed that adding 5% (w/v) WLR into medium had little effect on the growth of Alicyclobacillus sp. The surfactant polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) had a toxic effect on Alicyclobacillus sp., but the growth of the microbe was vigorous if the proper technique was used: the mixing of WLR with Tween 80, followed by the addition of the mixture into the culture media. With the increase of desulfurization time, the swelling value of desulfurizated waste latex rubber (DWLR) increased, but the crosslink density decreased. After co-culture desulfurization for 8–10 days, a DWLR with good desulfurization effect was obtained. The mechanical properties of natural rubber (NR)/DWLR composite improved significantly over those of NR/WLR composite. XPS and FTIR results revealed that Alicyclobacillus sp. could break the crosslinked sulfur bonds and oxidize them to sulfones groups. The increase of O element content on the surface of DWLR was confirmed by water contact angle measurements. The relationship between the crosslink density and sol fraction of DWLR with different desulfurization times agreed with the Horikx equation, an indication that the microorganisms could break the crosslinked sulfur bonds on the surface of WLR, but leaving the main chains intact. 相似文献
Promoting electron mobility is the key to designing high performance electron transport materials(ETMs). Formation of intermolecular interaction can be helpful to enhance their electron mobilities as a result of more ordered molecular stacking.Here, to reveal the inherent influence of intermolecular π-π stacking on the electron mobilities, we designed two ETMs, namely,2,4-diphenyl-6-[3-(2-triphenylenyl)phenyl]-1,3,5-triazine(TPTRZ) and 2,4-diphenyl-6-[4′-(2-triphenylenyl)[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl]-1,3,5-triazine(TPPTRZ). Thermal, photophysical and electrochemical measurement results indicate they are good ETM candidates. Additionally, TPTRZ and TPPTRZ exhibit high electron mobilities of 3.60×10~(-5) and 3.58×10~(-5) cm~2V-1 s~(-1), respectively, at an electric field of 7×10~5 V cm~(-1). By taking X-ray single crystal structure, theoretical calculation and time of flight(TOF) results into consideration, it is revealed that strong intermolecular π-π stacking induced by planar triphenylene and triphenyltriazine units renders TPTRZ and TPPTRZ small energetic and positional disorder parameters, and results in their high electron mobilities thereby. By further enhancing intermolecular π-π stacking, ETMs with even higher electron mobilities can thus be anticipated. 相似文献
High cost of phosphors and significant efficiency roll-off at high brightness are the two main factors that limit the wide application of phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs). Efforts have been paid to find ways to reduce the phosphors’ concentration and efficiency roll-off of PHOLEDs. In this work, we reported red emission PHOLEDs with low dopant concentration and low efficiency roll-off based on a novel host material 2,4-biscyanophenyl-6-(12-phenylindole[2,3-a]carbazole-11-yl)-1,3,5-triazine (BCPICT), with thermally activated delayed fluorescent(TADF) properties. The device with 1.0% dopant concentration displayed a maximum external quantum efficiency of 10.7%.When the dopant concentration was increased to 2.0%, the device displayed a maximum external quantum efficiency of 10.5% and a low efficiency roll-off of 5.7% at 1000 cd/m2. 相似文献
In this paper, a novel stochastic extra-step quasi-Newton method is developed to solve a class of nonsmooth nonconvex composite optimization problems. We assume that the gradient of the smooth part of the objective function can only be approximated by stochastic oracles. The proposed method combines general stochastic higher order steps derived from an underlying proximal type fixed-point equation with additional stochastic proximal gradient steps to guarantee convergence. Based on suitable bounds on the step sizes, we establish global convergence to stationary points in expectation and an extension of the approach using variance reduction techniques is discussed. Motivated by large-scale and big data applications, we investigate a stochastic coordinate-type quasi-Newton scheme that allows to generate cheap and tractable stochastic higher order directions. Finally, numerical results on large-scale logistic regression and deep learning problems show that our proposed algorithm compares favorably with other state-of-the-art methods.
A novel acceptor material,9-(4′-(4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)-9H-carbazole(o-DTPPC)was developed to form interface exciplex with commonly used donors,to maximize the performances of red phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes(PHOLEDs).It is found that the exciplex involving 4,4′-(cyclohexane-1,1-diyl)bis(N,N-di-p-tolylaniline)(TAPC)exhibits the most significant thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)property,derived from the high triplet energy level as well as strong hole-transporting ability of TAPC.Intriguingly,it is the same donor-acceptor combination which achieved the highest device efficiency when adopted as the host for red PHOLEDs.Maximum efficiencies as high as31.36 cd A~(-1),17.95 lm W~(-1),and 21.01%for the current efficiency,power efficiency and external quantum efficiency,respectively with low efficiency roll-off were realized.The improved performance can be attributed to the efficient TADF properties of the interface exciplex-forming host constituting TAPC,benefiting the F?rster energy transfer.The article first underlines the importance of the constituting molecules in the interface exciplex-forming hosts,shedding new insight about the choice of interface exciplex as the host for PHOLEDs,which may lead to even higher performances,paving their ways towards practical applications. 相似文献
Recently, organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) employing thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials have aroused huge attention in both academia and industry. Compared with fluorescent and phosphorescent materials, TADF materials can theoretically capture 100 % excitons without incorporating noble metals, making them effective emitters and hosts for OLEDs simultaneously. Here, in this review, our recent works on mechanisms and materials of high performance TADF‐sensitized phosphorescent (TSP) OLEDs, TADF‐sensitized fluorescent (TSF) OLEDs and TADF‐sensitized TADF (TST) OLEDs are summarized. Finally, we propose the outlook for the further development and application of TADF‐sensitized OLEDs. 相似文献
