Simultaneous determination of ten organophosphate pesticide residues in fruits by gas chromatography coupled with magnetic separation

In this study, γ‐Fe₂O₃/chitosan magnetic microspheres were synthesized and evaluated by X‐ray diffraction, SEM, thermogravimetric analysis, and static and kinetic adsorption experiments. Results showed that the magnetic microspheres exhibited good adsorption ability, and offered fast kinetics for the adsorption of trichlorfon, methamidophos, malathion, methyl parathion, dimethoate, omethoate, phosphamidon, phorate, isocarbophos, and chlorpyrifos. Based on magnetic separation, a simple method of magnetic SPE coupled to GC for the simultaneous determination of ten trace organophosphate pesticide residues was developed. Under the optimal conditions, the enrichment factor for ten organophosphorus pesticides was 10.1–364.7 and linear range was 0.001–10.0 mg/L. The LOD (S/N = 3) of the method for the ten pesticides was 0.31–3.59 μg/kg. The RSD for three replicate extractions of spiked samples was between 2.5 and 6.3%. The pear and apple samples spiked with ten organophosphate pesticides at 20 and 200 μg/kg levels were extracted and determined by this method with good recoveries ranging from 79.9 to 98.7%. Moreover, the method has been successfully applied for the determination of the ten organophosphate pesticide residues in peach samples.     

Optical Properties of Mg x Zn1−x O Polycrystalline Thin Films Prepared by Sol-Gel Deposition Method

The Mg _x Zn_1–x O alloy thin films were synthesized on Si and quartz substrates by the sol-gel deposition method. The transmittance and cathodoluminescence spectra of the Mg_0.05Zn_0.95O and Mg_0.15Zn_0.85O nanoparticle films were obtained at room temperature. It was found that the bandgap of Mg_0.05Zn_0.95O and Mg_0.15Zn_0.85O films is as large as 3.72 eV and 3.79 eV, respectively. The ultraviolet emission peaks are located at 376 nm and 370 nm, respectively, for the samples annealed at 600°C. When the annealing temperature is elevated to 1000°C, the band-gap decreases to 3.42 eV and an emission line related to the deep-level defect appears at 500 nm. The mechanism behind these phenomena is discussed.     

High-efficiency fluorescence quenching of conjugated polymers by proteins

The fluorescence of the water-soluble anionic conjugated polymer, poly[lithium 5-methoxy-2-(4-sulfobutoxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MBL-PPV), is quenched in dilute aqueous solution by cytochrome c, a small, naturally occurring electron-transfer protein. The large value obtained for the Stern-Volmer constant (K(sv) = 3.2 x 10(8) at pH 7.4, and approximately 10(9) in acidic solutions) is attributed to a combination of two factors: (1) facile ET between the luminescent semiconducting polymer and the protein and (2) the Columb attraction between the oppositely charged polyelectrolytes. This system shows significant potential for biosensor applications.

Reverse depletion effects and the determination of ligand density on some spherical bioparticles

In cell environments crowded with macromolecules, the depletion effects act and assist in the assembly of a wide range of cellular structures, from the cytoskeleton to the chromatin loop, which are well accepted. But a recent quantum dot experiment indicated that the dimensions of the receptor–ligand complex have strong effects on the size-dependent exclusion of proteins in cell environments. In this article, a continuum elastic model is constructed to resolve the competition between the dimension of the receptor–ligand complex and depletion effects in the endocytosis of a spherical virus-like bioparticle. Our results show that the depletion effects do not always assist endocytosis of a spherical virus-like bioparticle; while the dimension of the ligand–receptor complex is larger than the size of a small bioparticle in cell environments, the depletion effects do not work and reverse effects appear. The ligand density covered on the virus can be identified quantitatively.
