A Glivenko-Cantelli lemma and weak convergence for empirical processes of associated sequences

Summary With the help of an extension of Hoeffding's equality, we develop a way for estimating the covariance structures for empirical functions of associated sequences in terms of covariances of the original random variables. Based on these estimations, a Glivenko-Cantelli lemma for associated sequences and weak convergence for empirical processes of stationary associated sequences are obtained, all under the conditions on covariances of the original random variables.This research has been supported partially by a scholarship from the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research of Carleton University, Ottawa, and by an NSERC Canada grant of M.

Mitochondria-targeted ratiometric fluorescent probes for micropolarity and microviscosity and their applications

Two fluorescent "off-on" probes YYH1 and YYH2 were used for bioimaging mitochondrial polarity and viscosity.     

Preparation and properties of polymer and quantum dot composites

Quantum dots (QDs) were prepared in an organic system through a simple and low-cost wet chemistry method. Polymer beads with a diameter of 60–70 nm and specific functional groups were synthesized by a particular seeded emulsion polymerization technique. QDs were embedded in the polymer beads with the specific functional groups through dissolving and swelling method, which provided the condition for the conjunction of biomolecules and QDs as fluorescent probes. The prepared composites were characterized with UV-Vis, PL, TEM, FTIR, CLSM and conductance titration etc. The results show that QDs are successfully embedded in polymer beads, which breaks the limitation that the conjunction of biomolecules and QDs can be achieved only for those synthesized in aqueous system. __________ Translated from Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University, 2005, 39(1) (in Chinese)

Dehydrogenation activities of highly dispersed transition metal oxides on NaY zeolite

Highly dispersed α-Fe_2O_3/NaY,NiO/NaY,and CuO/NaY catalyst systems were pre-pared by impregnation method.Dispersion thresholds of the transition metal oxides on NaY" zeolitewere determined by XRD phase analysis.The dispersion capacities of the transition metal oxides on NaYzeolite are much lower than that estimated on the basis of a closed packed monolayer in the micropores.The catalytic activity and selectivity of the highly dispersed oxide catalyst systems for ethylben-zene and cyclohexane dehydrogenation reactions were reported.

A metallo-capped polyrotaxane containing calix[4]arenes and cyclodextrins and its highly selective binding for Ca2+

A water-soluble nanometer-scale metallocapped polyrotaxane has been prepared by the inclusion complexation of azo-calixarenes with metallo-bridged bis(beta-CD)s, displaying highly selective binding for Ca(2+).
