Simultaneous determination and pharmacokinetic studies on (3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-lactic acid and protocatechuic aldehyde in rat serum after oral administration of Radix Salviae miltiorrhizae extract

A simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography method is developed for the simultaneous determination of (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-lactic acid (Dhpl) and protocatechuic aldehyde (Pal) in rat serum after oral administration of Radix Salviae miltiorrhizae extract. Serum samples are acidified with hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. Analysis of the extract is performed on a reversed-phase column and a mobile phase of 0.02% phosphoric acid-acetonitrile (91:9, v/v) with UV detection at 280 nm. Standard curves are linear in the range of 1.47-456.96 microg/mL for Dhpl and 0.124-7.936 microg/mL for Pal. For both regression coefficients, r(2) is greater than 0.993. Mean recovery is determined to be 75.23% and 84.06%, respectively, by analyzing serum standard containing 7.14, 57.12, and 228.48 microg/mL of Dhpl and 0.124, 0.992, and 3.968 microg/mL of Pal. The intraday precision (relative standard deviation) ranges from 3.91% to 12.03% at concentrations of 1.43, 57.12, and 228.48 microg/mL for Dhpl and 3.79% to 8.12% at concentrations of 0.124, 0.992, and 3.968 microg/mL for Pal. The interday precision (relative standard deviation) ranges from 5.06% to 9.93% for Dhpl and 3.05% to 10.00% for Pal, respectively, at the same three concentrations. This validated assay is applied to the determination of Dhpl and Pal concentrations and used to take a limited view of the pharmacokinetic profile in rat serum after oral administration of Radix Salviae miltiorrhizae extract.     

闪光照相中散射分布均匀性的影响因素

 为了在客体密度重建过程中采用迭代法扣除散射X射线的影响,提出了以散射分布均匀为主要目的的闪光照相系统设计思想。在介绍散射分布均匀性定义的基础上,分析了均匀扣除散射所带来的光程差。采用蒙特卡罗方法研究了系统放大倍数、照相距离以及后防护锥到图像接收系统的距离对散射分布均匀性的影响。结果表明：后防护锥到图像接收系统的距离是影响散射分布形状和散射照射量大小的一个主要因素;当后防护锥到图像接收系统的距离为55 cm左右时,散射分布均匀性近似最佳,而且照相距离越大,散射分布均匀性越好。这些研究结果可用于实际闪光照相系统的优化设计,在图像接收系统的响应范围内达到使散射分布均匀和降低光源模糊影响的目的。     

高聚物减阻溶液对壁湍流输运过程的影响

基于相同雷诺数下清水和高分子聚合物溶液壁湍流的高时间分辨率粒子图像测速技术(time-resolved particle image velocimetry, TRPIV)的对比实验, 从高聚物溶液对湍流边界层动量能量输运影响的角度分析其减阻的机理. 对比两者的雷诺应力发现高聚物的存在抑制了湍流输运过程. 这一影响与高聚物对壁湍流中占主导地位的涡旋运动和低速条带等相干结构的作用密切相关. 运用条件相位平均、相关函数和线性随机估计(linear stochastic estimation, LSE)等方法, 分析提取了高聚物溶液流场中的发卡涡和发卡涡包等典型相干结构的空间拓扑形态. 相比于清水, 高聚物溶液中相干结构的流向尺度增大, 涡旋运动的发展及低速流体喷射的强度受到削弱, 表明了添加的高聚物阻碍了湍流原有的能量传递和自维持的机理. 正是通过影响相干结构, 高聚物抑制了湍流边界层中近壁区与外区之间的动量和能量输运, 使得湍流的无序性降低, 从而减小了湍流流动的阻力.     

ClcR-based biosensing system in the detection of cis-dihydroxylated (chloro-)biphenyls

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of organic pollutants that are persistent when released into the environment. Among the metabolites of PCBs, dihydroxylated PCBs are also considered as toxic compounds. Various studies have shown that dihydroxylated PCBs affect the reproductive, immune, nervous, and endocrine systems. Detection of these chemicals in environmental and biological samples could provide first-hand information about their levels and lead to a better understanding of their role in toxicity. To that end, we developed a sensing system for the detection of dihydroxylated PCBs based on the clc operon. The Pseudomonas putida clc operon encodes a catabolic pathway for degradation of chlorocatechols, which are major metabolites of a large number of chlorinated compounds. In P. putida, the expression of these genes is regulated by a protein encoded by the gene clcR located upstream from the clcABD genes. We demonstrate here for the first time that dihydroxy PCBs can also induce the clc operon. Our sensing system employs P. putida bacteria harboring a plasmid in which the reporter gene, lacZ, is under the control of the regulatory protein ClcR. Consequently, when exposed to dihydroxy PCBs, the bacteria express β-galactosidase in an amount related to the concentration of the corresponding dihydroxy PCB. Various dihydroxylated PCBs, differing in the number and position of chlorines and in the position of hydroxyls, were tested for their ability to induce expression of β-galactosidase. Detection limits as low as 1×10⁻⁶ mol L⁻¹ were obtained for various dihydroxylated PCBs.

线圈炮电枢电磁-热耦合仿真分析

 从麦克斯韦方程组和导热微分方程出发,导出了3维多级感应线圈炮电磁场、温度场分布的基本方程,并以电磁场和温度场有限元分析为基础,建立了3维有限元分析模型,忽略级间的相互影响,多级线圈炮中电枢温升可以等效为多个单级电枢的温升,运用通用有限元分析软件ANSYS的耦合计算流程,对单级感应线圈炮中电枢电磁场和温度场进行仿真。计算中考虑了材料物理参数随温度变化对温度场的影响。仿真结果表明：电枢内的温升主要分布在电枢的外表面和尾部;电枢的温度随着电容器组电压和电容增加而升高,这是因为总能量增大,电枢中涡流也增大,从而电枢的温度升高;电枢的触发位置和速度匹配关系,也会对电枢温升造成很大的影响;电枢的温度随着级数的增加逐渐升高,说明电枢在一定级数后达到了材料的熔点而被破坏。
