Separation and determination of ephedrine alkaloids and tetramethylpyrazine in Ephedra sinica Stapf by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

A simple, sensitive, and reliable method using gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry (MS) is developed for the simultaneous determination of ephedrine alkaloids and 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) in Ephedra sinica Stapf. The sample is extracted with ethyl ether and submitted to GC-MS for identification and quantitation without derivatization. The column used for GC is an HP-5 (30.0 m x 250 microm x 0.25 microm, 5% phenyl methyl siloxane), and the carrier gas is helium. The detection limits for ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and TMP are 0.4 ng 0.7 ng, and 0.02 ng (signal-to-noise ratio of 3), respectively. The reproducibility of the total procedure is proved to be acceptable (RSD < 2%), and the recoveries are above 93%.

Luminescence 3D-ordered porous materials composed of CdSe and CdTe nanocrystals

The luminescence porous materials of CdTe or CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) were prepared by filling the corresponding NCs into the voids of colloidal crystal by co-deposition of polymer beads and NCs. After removing the beads with tetrahydrofuran (THF), the 3D-ordered porous materials of CdTe (or CdSe) NCs were obtained. The wavelength of maximum photoluminescence of the NCs porous material shows obvious red shift compared with their aqueous dispersion. Under the excitation of high-energy electron the porous materials of CdTe and CdSe NCs will emit photons that can be collected to form a cathode luminescence (CL) image.

Study on glucose oxidase fermentation coupled with membrane dialysis

The repression of glucose oxidase (GOD) biosynthesis by catabolites during fermentation can be alleviated through membrane dialysis fermentation (MDF). The results show that the volumetric enzyme productivity of MDF was two times higher than that of the control (fermentation without dialysis), and its total enzyme activity was increased by 30–50%. The operation conditions of MDF, such as pore size of the membrane, initiating time for membrane dialysis, and volume of dialysate used, were optimized. The content of amino acids and organic acids in the fermentation broth and the dialysate in the reservoir were assessed by amino acid analyzer and ionic chromatography, respectively. The relationship among the contents of pyruvic acid, gluconic acid, and enzyme activity during fermentation was analyzed quantitatively. Furthermore, the effect of membrane dialysis technology applied to the low-yield strain was found to be more effective than that applied to the high-yield strain.

Synthesis of Novel Benzo-15-Crown-5-Tethered β-Cyclodextrins and Their Enhanced Molecular Binding Abilities by Alkali Metal Cation Coordination

Two novel benzo-15-crown-5 tethered β-cyclodextrins 1 and 2have been synthesized by coupling substituted benzo-15-crown-5 with correspondingβ-cyclodextrin derivatives. Their inclusion complexation behavior withrepresentative guests, such as cyclohexanol, cyclohexane carboxylic acid, cyclohexaneacetic acid, sodium cyclohexane carboxylate, and potassium cyclohexane carboxylate,was investigated in aqueous solution by means of fluorescence spectrometry. As compared with parent β-cyclodextrin, benzo-15-crown-5 tethered β-cyclodextrins 1–2 display significantly enhanced molecular binding abilities and selectivities towards model substrates, especially towards substrates containing alkali-metal cations. These results indicate that, bearing two recognition sites in a single molecule, these supramolecular architectures can strongly enhance the molecular binding ability of parent β-cyclodextrin by the cooperative binding of the β-cyclodextrin cavity and the crown ether moiety. Possessing a shorter linker, crown ether-β-cyclodextrin 2 shows much higher binding affinity with guest molecules than crown ether-β-cyclodextrin 1, which may be attributed to the binding size and molecular multiple recognition behavior between host and guest.     

Double-Label Simultaneous Time-Resolved Fluoroimmunoassay of Phenytoin and Phenobarbital

A procedure for the simultaneous time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay for phenobarbital and phenytoin, based on the use of europium- and samarium-labeled haptens, has been investigated. These lanthanide ions are bound to the haptens by means of the anhydride of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid. The antibody is immobilized onto immunoplate in which samples are assayed in competitive immunoassay. After the immunoreactions and dissociation with a fluorescence enhancement solution, the fluorescence intensity is measured. The detection limits of the assay are, respectively, 20 ng/ml for phenobarbital and 50 ng/ml for phenytoin. Results obtained with the proposed methods correlate well (CV <10%). The inter-reactions between phenobarbital, phenytoin, and their antibodies are studied.
