Prototype of immunochromatographic assay strips using colloidal CdTe nanocrystals as biological luminescent label

Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals have attracted considerable attention as a novel biological luminescent label. The bioinorganic conjugates of luminescent CdTe nanocrystals and protein, including CdTe/BSA (bovine serum albumin) and CdTe/MAB (mouse monoclonal antibody against hepatities B surface antigen), were formed via electrostatic/coordination self-assembly. Pure CdTe nanocrystals, CdTe/BSA and CdTe/MAB were used in the immunochromatographic assay experiments, respectively. And the results indicated that CdTe nanocrystals could be used and developed as a novel label with good stability, high sensitivity and facile determination of several analytes in immunochromatographic assay strips.     

Detection of paracetamol by capillary electrophoresis with chemiluminescence detection

Indirect detection of paracetamol was accomplished using a capillary electrophoresis-chemiluminescence (CE-CL) detection system, which was based on its inhibitory effect on a luminol-potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) (K₃[Fe(CN)₆]) CL reaction. Paracetamol migrated in the separation capillary, where it mixed with luminol included in the running buffer. The separation capillary outlet was inserted into the reaction capillary to reach the detection window. A four-way plexiglass joint held the separation capillary and the reaction capillary in place. K₃[Fe(CN)₆] solution was siphoned into a tee and flowed down to the detection window. CL was observed at the tip of the separation capillary outlet. The CL reaction of K₃[Fe(CN)₆] oxidized luminol was employed to provide the high and constant background. Since paracetamol inhibits the CL reaction, an inverted paracetamol peak can be detected, and the degree of CL suppression is proportional to the paracetamol concentration. Maximum CL signal was observed with an electrophoretic buffer of 30 mM sodium borate (pH 9.4) containing 0.5 mM luminol and an oxidizer solution of 0.8 mM K₃[Fe(CN)₆] in 100 mM NaOH solution. Under the optimal conditions, a linear range from 6.6 × 10⁻¹⁰ to 6.6 × 10⁻⁸ M (r = 0.9999), and a detection limit of 5.6 × 10⁻¹⁰ M (signal-to-noise ratio = 3) for paracetamol were achieved. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) of the peak area for 5.0 × 10⁻⁹ M of paracetamol (n = 11) was 2.9%. The applicability of the method for the analysis of pharmaceutical and biological samples was examined.

Molecular design of crown ethers. 21.(1,2) synthesis of novel double-armed benzo-15-crown-5 lariats and their complexation thermodynamics with light lanthanoid nitrates in acetonitrile

Three new disubstituted benzo-15-crown-5 derivatives (3-5) have been synthesized from 4',5'-bis(bromomethyl)benzo-15-crown-5 (2) and the corresponding alkanols in the presence of Na(2)S(2), and their complexation thermodynamics with light lanthanoid(III) nitrates (La-Gd) have been studied in anhydrous acetonitrile at 25 degrees C. Plots of K(S) against the reciprocal ionic diameter of lanthanoid exhibited monotonically declining pattern for the parent benzo-15-crown-5 (1) and 3 but showed a characteristic peak at Ce(3+) for 4 and 5. It is interesting to note that the simple extension of the alkyl side chains in 4 and 5 can alter the cation selectivity profiles of 1 and 3. Possessing two 2-oxapropyl groups, 3 gave a comparable K(S) for La(3+) but a significantly decreased K(S) for Ce(3+) compared with the corresponding values for 1, thus exhibiting an exceptionally high La(3+)/Ce(3+) selectivity of 11. Thermodynamically, the complexation of lanthanoid perchlorates with 1 is absolutely entropy-driven in acetonitrile, while the complexation of lanthanoid nitrates with 3-5 is primarily driven by exothermic enthalpy changes with accompanying moderate entropic gain or small entropic loss.

Interactions of Some Amino Acids with Aqueous N,N-Dimethylacetamide Solutions at 298.15 and 308.15 K: A Volumetric Approach

The apparent molar volumes, V _φ , of glycine, L-alanine and L-serine were obtained in aqueous 0 to ∼4 mol⋅kg⁻¹ N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) solutions from density measurements at 298.15 and 308.15 K. The standard partial molar volume, V _φ ^o, and standard partial molar volumes of transfer, Δ_tr V _φ ^o, were determined for these amino acids. It has been shown that hydrophilic-hydrophilic interactions between charged groups of the amino acids and the —CON= group of DMA are predominant in the case of glycine and L-serine, but for L-alanine the interactions between its side group (—CH₃) and DMA are predominant. An increase in temperature increases the standard partial molar volumes but decreases the transfer volumes of the amino acids. The results have been interpreted in terms of cosphere overlap model.     

Quantitative interrogation of protein co-aggregation using multi-color fluorogenic protein aggregation sensors

Co-aggregation of multiple pathogenic proteins is common in neurodegenerative diseases but deconvolution of such biochemical process is challenging. Herein, we developed a dual-color fluorogenic thermal shift assay to simultaneously report on the aggregation of two different proteins and quantitatively study their thermodynamic stability during co-aggregation. Expansion of spectral coverage was first achieved by developing multi-color fluorogenic protein aggregation sensors. Orthogonal detection was enabled by conjugating sensors of minimal fluorescence crosstalk to two different proteins via sortase-tag technology. Using this assay, we quantified shifts in melting temperatures in a heterozygous model protein system, revealing that the thermodynamic stability of wild-type proteins was significantly compromised by the mutant ones but not vice versa. We also examined how small molecule ligands selectively and differentially interfere with such interplay. Finally, we demonstrated these sensors are suited to visualize how different proteins exert influence on each other upon their co-aggregation in live cells.

A little leak will sink a great ship! We prepared a series of multi-color protein aggregation sensors and developed a dual-color thermal shift assay to simultaneously and quantitatively report on protein co-aggregation of two different proteins.     

Racemization of chiral amino alcohols III: Effect of Mg or Ca addition on the activity and stability of the Co/γ-Al2O3 catalyst

The racemization of R-(-)-2-amino-1-butanol in a reaction using Co/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts and catalysts modified by Mg or Ca was investigated in this paper. Complete racemization was achieved with a yield of over 83% at using the Mg modified Co/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst under optimized reaction conditions of 170°C and 2.5 MPa of H₂. The catalysts were thoroughly characterized by XRD, XPS, TPR, SEM and TEM. The addition of Mg and Ca may be advantageous for dispersing and stabilizing the active species of the Co/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst, protecting from sintering, significantly improving its catalytic activity and stability.

A novel terminal hydroxide containing dinuclear alumoxane LAl(OH)OAlL(OCH=N-tBu) (3; L = HC(CMeNAr)2, Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) was prepared by treatment of aluminum dihydride LAlH2 (1) and tert-butyl isocyanate in the presence of trace amounts of water and alternatively from 1 and LAlH(OCH=N-tBu) (2) with water. Compound 2 was obtained from the reaction of 1 and tert-butyl isocyanate.
