High-performance liquid chromatography was used to assay serum acid and alkaline phosphatase. Samples were incubated with adenosine-5'-monophosphoric acid (AMP) in a buffer of required pH, 5'-nucleotidase was inhibited with Ni2+ ions, and the phosphatase activity was determined by measuring the concentration of the reaction product, adenosine. The analysis time, after the incubation is terminated, is short (7 min), and the assay is quantitative and reproducible. Complete separation of the reaction product from the substrate and the naturally occurring serum constituents and the high sensitivity of the ultraviolet detection system eliminate some of the problems commonly encountered in spectrophotometric assays. 相似文献
The potential of a charge distribution due to a lattice of point charges may be evaluated by the classical multipole expansion method. The leading terms in the resultant expressions are just those used in some of our previous calculations [1–3]. In addition, for cases where the leading terms vanish because of the effect of orthogonality of the basis functions upon the Mulliken expansion (this being especially serious in the case of a one-centre charge distribution), we have derived the first nonvanishing term, involving |r|. In other cases it may be necessary to proceed to still higher multipole terms before a non-zero contribution is obtained. The entire procedure is formulated in such a way that it can be easily applied to LCAO-MO calculations for polyatomic ions in ionic lattices. 相似文献
New expansions for global semigroup theory are developed. Many expansions have a left and a right version, each with specific (dual) properties; e.g., the Rhodes expansions ?, resp. ?, have unambiguous -resp. -order. In applications one sometimes needs expansions having both properties simultaneously; these can be constructed by alternately applying the left and the right expansion (possibly infinitely often) while keeping the same set of generators. Thus one obtains an expansion which is invariant under application of the old two expansions and thus has the properties of both (e.g., one obtains -+ with , and so -+ has unambiguous -and -order). It is proved that, in the case of the Rhodes expansion, the new expansion is ‘close’ to the original semigroup; in particular (and this is the main result of the paper), ?+A is finite (resp. finite -above) if S is finite (resp. finite-above). 相似文献
Gel filtration chromatography using a TSKgel G2000 SW column coupled with differential refractive index detection was used to analyse five grades of polyvinyl alcohol. Limits of detection and quantification for the assay were 0.14 mg mL–1, 0.47 mg mL–1 respectively. The inter and intra-day co-efficient of variance were both <7%. There was a significant difference (p<0.05, n=5) between the calibration curves across the five grades of PVA due to a refractive index range of 13.0790 –1.3181 (n=3). The assay accuracy was 98.99% ± 8.97% (n=5) and 90.60% ± 7.87% (n=5) of a spiked PVA sample was recovered from a commercial formulation. 相似文献
The stability of gold iodides in the oxidation state +I and +III is investigated at the ab initio and density functional level using relativistic and nonrelativistic energy-adjusted pseudopotentials for gold and iodine. The calculations reveal that relativistic effects stabilize the higher oxidation state of gold as expected, that is Au2I6 is thermodynamically stable at the relativistic level, whilst at the nonrelativistic level the complex of two iodine molecules weakly bound to both gold atoms in Au2I2 is energetically preferred. The rather low stability of AuI3 with respect to dissociation into AuI and I2 will make it difficult to isolate this species in the solid state as (possibly) Au2I6 or detect it by matrix-isolation techniques. The monomer AuI3 is Jahn-Teller distorted from the ideal trigonal planar (D3h) form, but adopts a Y-shaped structure (in contrast to AuF3 and AuCl3), and in the nonrelativistic case can be described as I2 weakly bound to AuI. Relativistic effects turn AuI3 from a static Jahn-Teller system to a dynamic one. For the yet undetected gas-phase species AuI accurate coupled-cluster calculations for the potential energy curve are used to predict vibrational-rotational constants. Solid-state density functional calculations are performed for AuI and Au2I6 in order to predict cohesive energies. 相似文献
The high dispersion absorption spectrum of the Ag2 molecule has been photographed in the ~5300–1500-Å region. Observations include the previously reported A ← X, B ← X, C ← X, D ← X, and E ← X transitions and a new H ← X transition which occurs in the vacuum ultraviolet. Extensive spectral blending precluded detailed rotational analyses, but the band structures are consistent with and for D-X and C-X, respectively. The H state is perturbed and probably predissociated. The following molecular constants (in cm?1) were obtained from fitting bandhead data to the usual expressions:
—We have employed a damage-specific DNA binding protein from human cells as a probe for base damage in polymers irradiated with white light in the presence of methylene blue. Protein-recognizable damage is introduced only into guanine-containing polymers and quenching of damage introduction by H2O and sodium azide suggest the involvement of a singlet oxygen mechanism. Using poly d(G-m5C), we have demonstrated that the left-handed double helical Z conformation is much less susceptible to guanine photooxidation than is the usual B conformation. We speculate that this difference in reactivity may reflect steric hindrance at the purine C-4 position and could provide some insight into the initial steps of the reaction between singlet oxygen and guanine in nucleic acid polymers. 相似文献
Carbamoylimidazolium salts act as efficient N,N-disubstituted carbamoylating reagents. These salts are readily prepared by the sequential treatment of secondary amines with N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) and iodomethane. The carbamoylimidazolium salts are more efficient carbamoyl transfer reagents than the intermediate carbamoylimidazoles, as a result of the ‘imidazolium’ effect. Kinetic studies on the base promoted hydrolysis of both carbamoylimidazoles and carbamoylimidazolium salts reveal over a hundred-fold rate acceleration. The salts react with amines, thiols, phenols/alcohols, and carboxylic acids in high yields, without the need for subsequent chromatographic purification of the products, producing ureas, thiocarbamates, carbamates, and amides, respectively. Analogous thiocarbamoylimidazolium salts were also synthesized from secondary amines and N,N′-thiocarbonyldiimidazole (TCDI), followed by methylation with iodomethane. 相似文献
Two methods are proposed, one for the location of saddle points and one for the calculation of steepest-descent paths on multidimensional surfaces. Both methods are based on a constrained simplex optimization technique that avoids the evaluation of gradients or second derivative matrices. Three chemical reactions of increasing structural complexity are studied within the PRDDO SCF approximation. Predicted properties of reaction hypersurfaces are in good overall agreement with those determined by gradient minimization and gradient following algorithms in connection with various ab initio SCF methods. Computational efforts required by the new procedures are discussed. 相似文献
