Control of reaction channels of CsI molecule by ultra-short laser pulse

The influence of the ultra-short pulse wavelength on the populations in the three electronic states of CsI molecule is investigated using the time-dependent wave packet method. The calculated results show that the populations in the two excited states approach to the maxima at the wavelengths of 369 nm and 297 nm, respectively. The photodissociation reaction channels of the CsI molecule can be chosen by controlling the pump pulse wavelength.

Cerebral hemodynamic response in Chinese (first) and English (second) language processing revealed by event-related functional MRI.

Comparative functional neuroimaging studies using the block design paradigm have previously demonstrated that there are no significant differences in the location of areas of cerebral activation when native Chinese speakers independently process single words or sentences in both the Chinese (first) and English (second) languages. While it has also been documented that significant domains of brain response include the inferior to middle left frontal lobe, the latency, amplitude and duration of the associated hemodynamic changes during isolated neural processing of Chinese and English languages still remain unknown. The aim of this study, therefore, was to examine the characteristics of the hemodynamic alterations in the above-mentioned regions with event-related functional MRI (ER-fMRI) when native Chinese speakers performed verb generation tasks in both the Chinese (first) and English (second) languages. Our results demonstrate the presence of a similar neural activity-induced hemodynamic response in the inferior to middle left frontal lobe during both tasks. Further, there were also no statistically significant differences among the variables that described the hemodynamic response curves. These findings strongly imply that the underlying neural mechanism for Chinese (first) and English (second) language processing may be similar in native Chinese speakers.

Preparation and properties of vesicles from condensable amphiphilic amino acids

Three double‐chain amphiphiles with amino acid groups as hydrophilic moiety were synthesized. These amphiphiles can be easily dispersed in buffer solution to form transparent dispersion. Examination of the dispersion by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed the formation of stable vesicular aggregates, which was also confirmed by the ability to encapsulate water‐soluble dyes. Since amino acid groups are located on the surface of the vesicles, water‐soluble carbodiimide can induce the condensation of these groups to form peptide. The phase transition temperatures of these vesicles were estimated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and a decrease of phase transition temperature was observed after polycondensation due to the disturbance of the ordered arrangement of the hydrophobic chains. The leakage rate of the vesicles before and after condensation was studied by monitoring the increase of fluorescence intensity of water‐soluble dye. These vesicles belong to the least permeable ones and the leakage rate can be controlled by varying the degree of condensation or the temperature.     

A Phenolic Glucoside from Alangium plantanifolium

Alangium, the sole genus in the family Alangiaceae, has a variety of about 20 species distributed in the tropical and subtropical area of the Eastern Hemisphere, and 13 species are known to occur in the south of China1. A. plantanifolium and A. chinense are used in chinese traditional medicine for the treatment of rheumatalgia, paralysis, cardianeuria, and wound2. Pharmacological studies of the extracts of these two species showed muscular relaxing activity, and anabasine was considered as t…     

SIZE EXCLUSION CHROMATOGRAPHIC COLUMN PACKED WITH REGENERATED CELLULOSE GELS*

Microporous regenerated cellulose gel particles were prepared by mixing cellulose cuoxam with silk fibroin aspore former, and the mean pore size and pore volume of the pallicles were 525 nm and 7.27 mL g~(-1), respectively. Apreparative size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) column (550 mm×20 mm) packed with the cellulose gel particles wasused for the fractionation of two polysaccharides Dextran 07 (M_w = 7.14×10~4, d= 1.7) and Dextran 50(M_w = 50.5×10~4,d = 3.8) in water phase. The fractionation range of the stationary phase covered M_w from 3×10~3 to 1.1×10~6. The dailythroughput was 2.9 g for Dextran 07 (D07) and 4.3 g for Dextran 50 (D50) with a flow-rate of 1.5 mL min~(-1). The fractionsobtained by using the SEC were analyzed by an analytical SEC combined with laser light scattering (LLS), and thepolydispersity indices of fractions for Dextran 07 and Dextran 50 were determined to be 1.34-1.57 and 1.53-3.36,respectively. The preparative SEC is a simple, rapid, and suitable means not only for the fractionation of polysaccharides inwater but also for other polymers in organic solvents.     

Mixed-conducting perovskite-type SrxBi1-xFeO3-δ oxygen-permeating membranes

Sr_xBi_1-xFeO_3-δ (SBF) series mixed conductors were synthesized using standard ceramic method. The properties of such materials were characterized by XRD, O₂-TPD techniques. Abnormal crystal phenomena were found and explained and correlated with the oxygen permeation results. By analysis of the critical radius (r_c), the degree of openness of the lattice (F_v) and the average metal-oxygen bonding energy of the perovskite lattice (ABE), it was proposed that the oxygen permeation flux is determined mainly by the oxygen diffusion rate in bulk when 1-x⩽0.5, and by the concentration of oxygen vacancy when 1-x ⩾ 0.5. The stability of Sr_0.5Bi_0.5FeO_3-δ was also investigated, and the high stability of it was attributed to the stable BO₆ octahedra.
