Interactions between proteins and biomaterial surfaces correlate with many important phenomena in biological systems. Such interactions have been used to develop various artificial biomaterials and applications, in which regulation of non-specific protein adsorption has been achieved with bioinert properties. In this research, we investigated the protein adsorption behavior of polymer brushes of dendrimer self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) with other generations. The surface adsorption properties of proteins with different pI values were examined on gold substrates modified with poly(amidoamine) dendrimer SAMs. The amount of fibrinogen adsorption was greater than that of lysozyme, potentially because of the surface electric charge. However, as the generations increased, protein adsorption decreased regardless of the surface charge, suggesting that protein adsorption was also affected by density of terminal group. 相似文献

Hybrids of Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles and surface-modified graphene nanosheets (GNs) were synthesized by a two-step process. First, graphene nanosheets were modified by SOCl(2) and 4-aminophenoxyphthalonitrile to introduce nitrile groups on their surface. Second, the nitrile groups of surface-modified graphene nanosheets were reacted with ferric ions on the surface of Fe(3)O(4) with the help of relatively high boiling point solvent ethylene glycol to form a GNs/Fe(3)O(4) hybrid. The covalent attachment of Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles on the graphene nanosheet surface was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). TEM and HRTEM observations indicated that the sizes of the nanoparticles and their coverage density on GNs could be easily controlled by changing the concentration of the precursor and the weight ratio to GNs. Magnetic measurements showed that magnetization of the hybrid materials is strongly influenced by the reaction conditions. Chemically bonded by phthalocyanine, the solubility of as-synthesized GNs/Fe(3)O(4) hybrid materials was greatly enhanced, which was believed to have potential for applications in the fields of composites, wastewater treatment and biomaterials. 相似文献
We have investigated the effect of co-absorbed CO and reaction temperature on the angular distribution of N(2) desorption by N(2)O decomposition under the steady state of N(2)O-CO reaction on Rh(110). Spatial distributions of desorbing product N(2) emission have been measured at various surface temperatures and CO coverages. The decomposed N(2) collimates at 48°-61° off normal in the parallel plane to [001] and [110] directions, indicating that adsorbed N(2)O just before the decomposition is oriented along the [001] direction. Although the inclined and collimated N(2) desorption is always observed at any steady-state CO coverage and reaction temperature, the shape of the collimated N(2) distribution varied dependent on the co-adsorbed CO coverage. The distribution becomes sharp and shifts toward the surface normal direction with increasing CO coverage. These effects of adsorbed CO on the angular distribution of N(2) are interpreted by the collision of desorbed N(2) with co-adsorbed CO. 相似文献
Two types of peptide nanotubes, one is prepared from an amphiphilic peptide having a right-handed helix segment and the other from that having a left-handed helix segment, are shown to transform the morphology into a vesicle by membrane fusion due to stereo-complex formation between these helical segments. 相似文献

We have investigated the mechanism of enhanced absorption intensities of vibrational bands of adsorbates on copper meshes with subwavelength holes by measuring and simulating temporal profiles of infrared pulses transmitted through the meshes. As reported previously [Williams et al., J. Phys. Chem. B, 2003, 107, 11871], the absorption intensities of CH stretching bands of alkanethiolate adsorbed on the mesh increase substantially with decreasing hole size. The enhancements of absorption intensities are associated with temporal delays of infrared pulses transmitted through the mesh. Finite difference time domain calculations reproduce the observed pulse delays as a function of hole size. These facts indicate that the delays of transmitted pulses are not caused by coupling of infrared radiation to surface plasmon polaritons propagating on the front and rear surfaces of the mesh, but they are caused by the reduction in group velocity owing to coupling to waveguide modes of mesh holes. Consequently, the strong enhancements of the absorption intensities are attributed to adsorbates inside the holes rather than to those on the mesh surfaces that have been proposed previously. 相似文献
Cyclic voltammetry (CV) is a powerful and popular electrochemical technique widely used to study the surface structure of materials through the electrochemical behaviors. Herein CV is utilized to study the electrochemical deposition of selenium (Se) on carbon black-supported Pt nanostructures. We synthesized carbon-loaded platinum nanoparticles (Pt/C) by microwave method and studied the electrochemical behavior of selenium on them. Through the experiment of changing the reverse potential, the corresponding relationship between the Se deposition peak and stripping peak was clarified and the deposition and stripping process of Se was proposed. Meanwhile, we synthesized cubic and octahedral nanocrystals of Pt, and used CV to study the Se deposition on these nanosctructures supported by carbon. It was found that the relative intensity of UPD peaks on Pt is different, as Ptcube@C is dominated by (100) and Ptoct@C electrode is dominated by (111) while Pt@C falls in between.
