Isotachophoretic separation of organic acids in biological fluids

The operating conditions for the isotachophoretic separation of organic acids were evaluated. At pH values ranging from 2.90 to 4.25 both relative step heights and molar flow-rates were determined experimentally for 26 anions. Comparing the observed values with simulated data, highly significant (p = 0.0001) correlation coefficients of 0.993 and 0.920, respectively, were found at pH 3.50. Whereas the concentration of the leading electrolyte did not affect the relative step heights, it increased the molar flow-rates significantly. The same applied to the detection current. The time of analysis was observed to be a function of the concentration of the leading electrolyte. However, the time elapsed between injection of the analyte and its detection depended solely on the volume and not on the amount of analyte injected. In isotachophoresis, incomplete separation of two compounds is indicated by the occurrence of a mixed zone which can hardly be distinguished from a pure zone. Thus, knowledge of the separation capacity is a prime prerequisite in optimizing the system for the analysis of biological fluids. The separability of nine equimolar pairs of anions was determined at pH values ranging from 2.90 to 4.25. Although two ionogenic constituents would separate only when their migration rates in the mixed state were different, no clear correlation was observed between separation capacity and difference in relative mobility. Separability, however, was found to increase with increasing concentration of the leading electrolyte. While the separation capacity was not influenced by the electric current, it was significantly affected by the volume injected. In subsequent analyses of serum, cerebrospinal fluid, seminal plasma and prostatic fluid, a variety of organic acids could be detected. Calibration graphs for the detected anions revealed a detection limit of 1 nmol and linearity over their biological concentration ranges. Further, the isotachophoretic results correlated well with high-performance liquid chromatographic and enzymatic analyses of citric acid and lactic acid in human seminal plasma and cerebrospinal fluid, respectively.     

Direct synthesis of protected diethyl 1,2-diaminoalkylphosphonates

An efficient, diastereoselective synthesis of 5-substituted (2-thioxo-imidazolidin-4-yl)phosphonic acid diethyl esters from metallated diethyl isothiocyanatomethylphosphonate and activated imines has been developed. The three-step transformation of imidazolidine-2-thione derivatives into 1,2-diaminoalkylphosphonic acids is also described.     

Relating Total π-Electron Energy and Resonance Energy of Benzenoid Molecules with Kekulé- and Clar-Structure-Based Parameters

Within classes of isomeric benzenoid hydrocarbons various Kekulé- and Clar-structure-based parameters (Kekulé structure count, Clar cover count, Herndon number, Zhang–Zhang polynomial) are all mutually correlated. This explains why both the total π-electron energy (E), the Dewar resonance energy (DRE), and the topological resonance energy (TRE) are well correlated with all these parameters. Nevertheless, there exists an optimal value of the variable of the Zhang–Zhang polynomial for which it yields the best results. This optimal value is negative-valued for E, around zero for TRE, and positive-valued for DRE. A somewhat surprising result is that TRE and DRE considerably differ in their dependence on Kekulé- and Clar-structure-based parameters.     

High-resolution Hadamard transform microscope fluorescence imaging: quantifying the DNA content in single cells

This study presents a novel miniaturized Hadamard transform fluorescence imaging microscope, by combining a conventional fluorescence microscope with Hadamard transform multiplexing encoding using a one-dimensional movable mask to realize spatial resolution and a linear CCD for multichannel detection. The microscope can provide high-resolution automatically-generated 0–255 gray level HT images for morphological analysis and visualization of a single cell, and normalized HT images for cellular quantitative measurements. The microscopes imaging capability was applied to measure the DNA content in human lymphocyte, chicken erythrocyte and eel erythrocyte, and a comparative study was performed. The results show that the calibrated DNA content in a chicken erythrocyte is 2.32 pg when human lymphocyte is used as the standard, and eel erythrocyte may be a potentially reliable and novel standard for determining DNA contents in other species because it has a stable DNA value of 2.06 pg, with a CV of 4.3% when 20 eel erythrocytes are measured. The results also demonstrate that the HT imaging microscope should be valuable in the fields of medicine and cell biology.     

Volumetric Properties of Ternary-Pseudobinary Mixtures Containing Benzene and Cyclohexane

Densities have been measured as a function of composition for ternary-pseudobinary mixtures of [(benzene + toluene or methylcyclohexane) + (cyclohexane + toluene or methylcyclohexane)] by means of a vibrating-tube densimeter at atmospheric pressure and the temperature 298.15 K. The excess molar volumes, V_m^E, were calculated from the densities and correlated using the Redlich–Kister equation to estimate the coefficients and standard errors. The experimental and calculated quantities are used to discuss the mixing behavior of the components. The results show the third component, toluene and methylcyclohexane, influences the interaction between benzene and cyclohexane.     

Microwave- and photoirradiation-induced staudinger reactions of cyclic imines and ketenes generated from alpha-diazoketones. A further investigation into the stereochemical process

Reactions of ketenes generated from alpha-diazoketones with a series of acyclic and cyclic imines were investigated under both microwave and photoirradiation conditions. The results indicate that the zwitterionic azabutadiene-type intermediates yielded from imines and ketenes undergo a conrotatory ring closure exclusively to produce beta-lactams. It is notable that no Woodward-Hoffmann product was found under the ultraviolet irradiation. The photoirradiation-induced Staudinger reaction shows a different stereoselectivity from the electrocyclic reaction of substituted 1,3-butadiene.

Determination of Fluoride in Water by Reversed-Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography using F−-La3+-Alizarin Complexone Ternary Complex

A method for the determination of fluoride by reversed-phase, high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) is described. Fluoride, La³⁺ and alizarin complexone form F-La³⁺-alizarin complexone ternary complex, which is separated from the matrix on a RP, Ultrasphere C₁₈ column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) using methanol-water (19:81, v/v) mobile phase at 1.00 mL min^?1; detection at 568 nm. The calibration graph was linear from 1.0–150 ng mL^?1 for fluoride with a correlation coefficient: 0.9993 (n=6). The detection limit was 0.2 ng mL^?1. The method was successfully applied to the determination of fluoride in river and tap water. Recovery was: 94–102%, RSD in the range: 1.9 –3.6%.
