Kilohertz Cr:forsterite regenerative amplifier

We report on a tunable regenerative amplifier that is operational in the near-infrared spectral region from 1230 to 1280 nm based on the vibronic laser material Cr:forsterite. Utilizing the technique of chirped-pulse amplification, we generated pulses as short as 150 fs at 1255 nm at a repetition rate of 1 kHz. Pulse amplification of more than 5 x 10(5) times was observed, with recorded output pulse energies of 34 muJ . Implementation of a second-harmonic generator yielded 110-fs-duration pulses of 7-muJ energy at 625 nm.

Lectins and/or xyloglucans/alginate layers as supports for immobilization of dengue virus particles

Formation of stable thin films of mixed xyloglucan (XG) and alginate (ALG) onto Si/SiO(2) wafers was achieved under pH 11.6, 50mM CaCl(2), and at 70 degrees C. XG-ALG films presented mean thickness of (16+/-2)nm and globules rich surface, as evidenced by means of ellipsometry and atomic force microscopy (AFM), respectively. The adsorption of two glucose/mannose-binding seed (Canavalia ensiformis and Dioclea altissima) lectins, coded here as ConA and DAlt, onto XG-ALG surfaces took place under pH 5. Under this condition both lectins present positive net charge. ConA and DAlt adsorbed irreversibly onto XG-ALG forming homogenous monolayers approximately (4+/-1)nm thick. Lectins adsorption was mainly driven by electrostatic interaction between lectins positively charged residues and carboxylated (negatively charged) ALG groups. Adhesion of four serotypes of dengue virus, DENV (1-4), particles to XG-ALG surfaces were observed by ellipsometry and AFM. The attachment of dengue particles onto XG-ALG films might be mediated by (i) H bonding between E protein (located at virus particle surface) polar residues and hydroxyl groups present on XG-ALG surfaces and (ii) electrostatic interaction between E protein positively charged residues and ALG carboxylic groups. DENV-4 serotype presented the weakest adsorption onto XG-ALG surfaces, indicating that E protein on DENV-4 surface presents net charge (amino acid sequence) different from E proteins of other serotypes. All four DENV particles serotypes adsorbed similarly onto lectin films adsorbed. Nevertheless, the addition of 0.005mol/L of mannose prevented dengue particles from adsorbing onto lectin films. XG-ALG and lectin layers serve as potential materials for the development of diagnostic methods for dengue.     

Synthesis of the C3-C18 fragment of amphidinolides G and H

A synthesis of an amphidinolides G and H C3-C18 subunits is reported. The C10-C18 segment 4 was prepared by a Negishi cross-coupling, whereas the synthesis of the C3-C9 fragment 5 employed an asymmetric cyanosilylation as the key step. The two segments were coupled by lithiation of iodide 4 and trapping of the anion with amide 5. The allylic epoxide moiety could be synthesized from the protected anti- mesylate 22.

Trace analysis of heavy metals in high purity materials by helium-3 activation analysis

A method is described to determine traces of V, Fe, Ni, Zn, Nb and Mo in high purity matrices of niobium, tantalum and tungsten by non-destructive 14 MeV³He activation analysis. The influence of nuclear and γ-ray interferences in the determination of these elements is discussed.
