Three new fluorescent enantiopure pyridino-18-crown-6 ethers containing a benzothiazole unit were prepared, and the enantiomeric discrimination of these sensor molecules toward the hydrogen perchlorate salts of 1-phenylethylamine, 1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine, phenylglycine methyl ester and phenylalanine methyl ester was studied in acetonitrile by fluorescence spectroscopy. The ligands revealed appreciable or moderate selectivity toward the enantiomers of hydrogen perchlorate salts of 1-phenylethylamine, 1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine and phenylglycine methyl ester. 相似文献
MEKC with DAD was applied to detect six Gd‐based contrasting agents (CAs) (Gd‐DTPA‐BMA (Omniscan), Gd‐HPDO3A (ProHance), Gd‐DOTA (Dotarem), Gd‐AAZTA, Gd‐BOPTA (Multihance) and Gd‐DTPA (Magnevist)) commonly used in MRI diagnostics. The achieved LODs ranged between 0.40 and 20 μM and the optimized method gave excellent precision, especially when two internal standards were applied (less than 0.34 RSD% for migration time). The MEKC technique made it possible to determine the CAs in urine and serum samples of patients having a therapeutic dose. Due to the SDS content of the running buffer, the serum samples can be directly injected to analyze Gd‐based CAs without interference of high protein content. 相似文献
The aim of this work was to develop a talc‐like inorganic coating on the surface of the multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to facilitate their mixing into the polypropylene and polyethylene matrix. Precursor compounds such as MgCl2 · 6H2O, Mg(NO3)2 · 6H2O, MgO2C4H10 and tetraethyl‐orthosilicate (TEOS) were used to cover the surface of the MWCNTs. As prepared, coverages and polymer composites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and X‐ray diffraction techniques. 相似文献
Fluorescent tagging of Cys-containing peptides is presented herein. The procedure follows a two-step sequential reaction scheme using thiol specific bifunctional chemical reporters and fluorogenic labels. Vinyl-sulfone bearing chemical reporters have been synthesized and demonstrated to selectively modify cysteine under physiological conditions in the presence of other nucleophilic amino acids. Bifunctional chemical reporters decorated with a terminal alkyne moiety, suitable for modification with azide containing fluorogenic labels were also synthesized. Such fluorogenic (turn on) labels in combination with these new vinyl-sulfone tags can be used generally in fluorescent modulation schemes of thiol-bearing biomolecules. 相似文献
Towards improved kinetic stability : A detailed account of the complexation properties of the ligand 1,4‐bis(hydroxycarbonylmethyl)‐6‐[bis(hydroxycarbonylmethyl)]amino‐6‐methylperhydro‐1,4‐diazepine (AAZTA; see figure) is reported. Its Gd3+ complex shows a kinetic stability superior to that of complexes formed by higher denticity ligands and opens the way for a new reference structure for MRI contrast agents.
In this paper we prove the conjecture of J.-C. Bermond (Ann. Discrete Math.36 (1978), 21–28): If two graphs are decomposable into Hamiltonian cycles, then their lexicographic product is decomposable, too. 相似文献
Two structurally constrained chelators based on a fused bicyclic scaffold, 4-amino-4-methylperhydro-pyrido[1,2-a][1,4]diazepin-N,N′,N′-triacetic acids [(4R*,10aS*)-PIDAZTA ( L1 ) and (4R*,10aR*)-PIDAZTA ( L2 )], were designed for the preparation of GaIII-based radiopharmaceuticals. The stereochemistry of the ligand scaffold has a deep impact on the properties of the complexes, with unexpected [Ga( L2 )OH] species being superior in terms of both thermodynamic stability and inertness. This peculiar behavior was rationalized on the basis of molecular modeling and appears to be related to a better fit in size of GaIII into the cavity of L2 . Fast and efficient formation of the GaIII chelates at room temperature was observed at pH values between 7 and 8, which enables 68Ga radiolabeling under truly physiological conditions (pH 7.4). 相似文献
Fe(iii) complexes are attracting growing interest in chemists developing diagnostic probes for Magnetic Resonance Imaging because they leverage on an endogenous metal and show superior stability. However, in this case a detailed understanding of the relationship between the chemical structure of the complexes, their magnetic, thermodynamic, kinetic and redox properties and the molecular parameters governing the efficacy (relaxivity) is still far from being available. We have carried out an integrated 1H and 17O NMR relaxometric study as a function of temperature and magnetic field, on the aqua ion and three complexes chosen as reference models, together with theoretical calculations, to obtain accurate values of the parameters that control their relaxivity. Moreover, thermodynamic stability and dissociation kinetics of the Fe(iii) chelates, measured in association with the ascorbate reduction behaviour, highlight their role and mutual influence in achieving the stability required for use in vivo.An integrated 1H and 17O NMR relaxometric study on model systems allowed to highlight that the Fe(III) complexes might represent the best alternative to Gd-based MRI contrast agents at the magnetic fields of current and future clinical scanners.相似文献
Ultrasonic testing is an emerging non-destructive testing technology with high repeatability and precision. Milk is a very complex liquid and the change of its viscosity is a highly relevant property throughout conversion into other dairy products. In the following paper, we propose a novel method for the monitoring of viscosity during enzymatic milk clotting by ultrasonic spectroscopy. An ultrasonic transducer–receiver couple with a 250 kHz nominal frequency was submerged in the samples and an enveloped sweep (“chirp”) signal was applied in a through-transmission mode. Simultaneously, the change in viscosity was measured with a rotational viscometer at a constant shearing speed. The data were analyzed with an algorithm developed by the authors for spectral ultrasonic testing. Estimations yielded a high adjusted R2 (0.963–0.998) and low cross-validated estimation error (RPD: 4.38–14.22), suggesting that the method is suitable for industrial use given the right instrumentation. 相似文献
