A Highly Selective and Sensitive Chemiluminescent Probe for Real-Time Monitoring of Hydrogen Peroxide in Cells and Animals

Selective and sensitive molecular probes for hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), which plays diverse roles in oxidative stress and redox signaling, are urgently needed to investigate the physiological and pathological effects of H₂O₂. A lack of reliable tools for in vivo imaging has hampered the development of H₂O₂ mediated therapeutics. By combining a specific tandem Payne/Dakin reaction with a chemiluminescent scaffold, H₂O₂-CL-510 was developed as a highly selective and sensitive probe for detection of H₂O₂ both in vitro and in vivo. A rapid 430-fold enhancement of chemiluminescence was triggered directly by H₂O₂ without any laser excitation. Arsenic trioxide induced oxidative damage in leukemia was successfully detected. In particular, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury-induced H₂O₂ fluxes were visualized in rat brains using H₂O₂-CL-510 , providing a new chemical tool for real-time monitoring of H₂O₂ dynamics in living animals.

Cloud point extraction and preconcentration for the gas chromatography of phenothiazine tranquilizers in spiked human serum.

Cloud point extraction was successfully applied to the preconcentration of phenothiazine derivatives, such as pericyazine (PC), chlorpromazine (CP) and fluphenazine (FUL), for gas chromatography (GC). Phenothiazine derivatives were separated from surfactants by passing the surfactant-rich phase through a cation exchange column after cloud point extraction, permitting the determination of the phenothiazine derivatives extracted in the surfactant-rich phase by GC. The optimal condition for the cloud point extraction of phenothiazine derivatives was also investigated using Triton X-100, Triton X-114, and PONPE10. Triton X-114 provided the most efficient recovery of phenothiazine derivatives among the surfactants used. The addition of sodium chloride and excess ammonia to the sample solution resulted in a decrement of the recovery of the phenothiazine derivatives. The proposed method was applied to the determination of phenothiazine derivatives in spiked human serum by GC. The recoveries of PC, CP, and FUL in spiked human serum were 95.1%, 87.1%, and 84.7%, respectively.

The study of Ni–Co alloy deposition on iron powder particles in a fluidized bed from sulphate bath

This paper describes a process of electrolytic deposition of nickel–cobalt (Ni–Co) binary alloy on Fe powder. Electrochemical behavior of this binary alloy was studied by cyclic voltammetry with a paraffin impregnated graphite electrode as a working electrode. Deposition of individual metals (Ni, Co), as well as the simultaneous nickel–cobalt co-deposition, was performed in aqueous solutions (Watts-type electrolyte) both with and without Fe powder. Special attention was paid to the influence of suspension density on the electrode process. This density affects on the quality of iron powder electroplating. Preferential deposition of the less noble metal (Co) leading to its higher content in the deposit was observed in contrast to the more noble one (Ni) in spite of higher content of Ni in the plating solution. This anomalous phenomenon–known already for other metals (Zn, Cd, Sn)–has been confirmed and investigated for iron-group metals (Fe, Co, Ni) in this work. Electrolytic deposition of Ni–Co binary alloys, including anomalous behavior is a complicated process. Understanding the anomalous behavior would lead to better control of the deposition process and to explanation of the mechanism of Ni–Co co-deposition.
