Synthesis and properties are described of multilayered stationary phases containing quaternary amine functional groups used for the analysis of inorganic anions by ion chromatography. The bonded phases were characterized by elemental analysis, solid state (13)C NMR spectroscopy and chromatographic methods. The surface of polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate (solid support) was coated with polymeric layers formed by condensation polymerization of primary amine with diepoxide. Each layer of the anion exchange stationary phase consisted of methylamine and 1,4-butanedioldiglycidyl ether copolymer. A series of stationary phases with different number of polymerized layers were tested. Separation of inorganic anions, such as F(-), Cl(-), NO(2) (-), Br(-), NO(3) (-), were performed. Aqueous hydroxide, carbonate and bicarbonate solutions were used as mobile phases. 相似文献
A new method is presented for the determination of five selected β-receptor antagonists by HPLC, which emphasizes sample preparation
via retention on a new type of silica gel sorbent used for solid-phase extraction (SPE). Sorbents of this type were obtained
by the chemical modification of silica gels of various porosities by cholesterol ligands. The cholesterol-based packing material
was investigated by spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis. The recoveries obtained with the extraction procedure were
optimum over a relatively broad sample pH range (3.08–7.50). Analytical factors such as the sample loading, the washing step
and elution conditions, the concentration of β-receptor antagonists to be extracted, and the type of sorbent were found to
play significant roles in the sample preparation procedure and would therefore need to be controlled to achieve optimum recoveries
of the analytes. Under optimum conditions, the recoveries of nadolol, acebutolol, esmolol, oxprenolol and propranolol from
spiked buffers, blood and urine were reproducible and dependent on the polarity or hydrophilicity of the compounds. The above
analytes were determined by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV and ESI-ion trap mass spectrometry
(MS) detection. The described method was found to be suitable for the routine measurement of compounds that are both polar
and basic, and can be applied for the analysis of biological samples such as urine and blood in clinical, toxicological or
forensic laboratories. The recovery measurements were performed on spiked human urine and serum, and on real samples of mouse
blood serum. 相似文献
PCR amplification of microsatellite sequences generates, besides the main product corresponding to allele size, also additional, undesired products usually shorter by multiples of the repeated unit. These extra products known as shadow bands or stutter products may complicate genotyping. The mechanism by which these artifacts are formed is not well understood and so no effective remedy has been found to cope with these spurious products. In this study, using the DNA templates containing the CAG/CTG repeats flanked by gene-specific sequences and universal priming sites, we analyzed the effects of many PCR variables on the shadow band generation. The most important result was that at the decreased temperature of the denaturation step during PCR cycling the shadow bands were either not formed or were strongly suppressed. Several possible sources of this effect are discussed. 相似文献
The refreshable mercury film silver based electrode Hg(Ag)FE applied for determination of Cr(VI) traces using catalytic adsorptive striping voltammetry (CAdSV) will be presented. The film electrode is characterized by its very good surface reproducibility (not less than 2%) and long-term stability (1500–2000 measurement cycles). The mechanical refreshing of mercury film is realized in the specially constructed device, in a time shorter than 1–2 s.
In the paper, it will be proved that a mechanically weak hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) may be substituted by mercury film Hg(Ag)FE electrode with a surface area adjustable from 1.5 to 12 mm2. For the electrode surface 4 mm2 the detection limit obtained for Cr(VI) was 0.19 nM, while the linearity range measured for a 20 s accumulation time was between 0.5 and 50 nM. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) in determination of Cr(VI) varied from 1 to 5%. The influence of the excess of Cr(III) on determination of Cr(VI) was analyzed using samples from the Dobczyce reservoir spiked with known amounts of Cr(VI) and Cr(III). 相似文献
The chemical character, geometry, and architecture of chemically formed surface layers determine interactions between stationary phase, analyte, and mobile phase, and therefore the retention mechanisms (partitioning, adsorption, ion exchange, steric exclusion) of separated analytes. These interactions also depend on the structure and chemical character of the solutes and the composition of the mobile phase. High-molecular-weight fullerenes (C60 and C70) and water-soluble selenium-containing peptides (833 and 2607 Da) were used for the evaluation of laboratory-prepared octadecyl stationary phases with high and low coverage density before and after end-capping. The aim of this work was to study differences in surface coverage density and homogeneity and conformational changes of chemically bonded moieties and the influence of these parameters on the separation of mixtures of selenopeptides and fullerenes with significantly different molecular masses. A topographical model of the chemically modified stationary surface is presented. 相似文献
A first-principles theory of interfacial segregation of dopants and defects in heterostructures is developed and applied to GAN/A1N superlattices. The results indicate that the equilibrium concentrations of a dopant at two sides of an interface may differ by up to a few orders of magnitude, depending on its chemical identity and charge state, and that these cannot be obtained from calculations for bulk constituents alone. In addition, the presence of an internal electric field in polar heterostructures induces electro-migration and accumulation of hydrogen at the appropriate interfaces. 相似文献
It has been shown that the primary, old-fashioned idea of Sakharov's induced gravity and gauge interactions, in the “one-loop dominance” version, works astonishingly well yielding phenomenologically reasonable results. As a byproduct, the issue of the role of the UV cutoff in the context of the induced gravity has been reexamined (an idea of self-cutoff induced gravity). As an additional check, the black hole entropy has been used in the place of the action. Finally, it has been explicitly shown that the induced coupling constants of gauge interactions of the standard model assume qualitatively realistic values. 相似文献

Four different poly(pyridine) complexes of ruthenium, viz. Ru(II)(trpy)(phen)(OH(2))](2+) (1), trans-[Ru(III)(2,2'bpy)(2)(OH(2))(OH)](2+) (2), [(2,2'bpy)(2)(OH)Ru(III)ORu(III)(OH)(2,2'bpy)(2)](4+) (3), and [Ru(II)(4,4'bpy)(NH(3))(5)](2+) (4) (2,2'bpy=2,2'-bipyridine, 4,4'bpy=4,4'-bipyridine, trpy=2,2',2"-terpyridine, phen=1,10-phenanthroline), were tested as non-physiological charge mediators of 'second-generation' glucose biosensors. The membranes for these biosensors were prepared by casting anionic carboxymethylated beta-cyclodextrin polymer films (beta-CDPA) directly onto the Pt or glassy carbon (GC) disk electrodes. Simultaneously, glucose oxidase (GOD) was immobilized in the films by covalent bonding and the Ru complexes were incorporated both by inclusion in the beta-CD molecular cavities and by ion exchange at the fixed carboxymethyl cation-exchange sites. The leakage of the mediator from the polymer has been minimized by adopting a suitable pre-treatment procedure. The biosensors catalytic activities increased in the order 1<2<3<4, as established by linear sweep voltammetry. In case of complexes 2-4, the enzymatic glucose oxidation was mediated by the Ru complexes at their redox potentials. However, this oxidation was mediated by oxygen in case of complex 1 where H(2)O(2) was detected as the reaction product. The effectiveness of the mediators used in the presence of oxygen has been estimated using Pt and GC supports. The redox potential of the mediator does not depend on the support used, while the oxidation of H(2)O(2) proceeds on GC at much higher positive potentials than on Pt. The sensitivity and the linear concentration range of the biosensor studied varied significantly. For complex 4, which forms stable inclusion complex with beta-CD, the biosensor sensitivity was the highest and equal to 7.2 micro A mM(-1) cm(-2), detectability was as low as 1 mM, but the linear concentration range was limited only to 4 mM. In contrast, for complexes 2 and 3 the sensitivity was 0.4 and 3.2 micro A mM(-1) cm(-2), while the linear concentration range extended up to at least 24 and 14 mM glucose, respectively. Even though some common interfering substances, such as ascorbate, paracetamol or urea, are oxidized at potentials close to those of the Ru complex redox couples, their electro-oxidation currents at physiological concentrations are insignificant compared to those due to the biocatalytic oxidation of glucose. The biosensor response to glucose is reversible as demonstrated by the inhibition of GOD activity by Cu(II). That is, the Cu(II) concentration required to inhibit by half the response to glucose of the biosensor containing complex 2 was 1.0 mM. This inhibitory effect was fully reversed by addition of citrate, a ligand forming sufficiently stable complex with Cu(II). 相似文献
Molecularly imprinted polymers hold great promise for the separation of chiral compounds. A non-covalent approach to the synthesis of MIPs relies on the presence of specific and non-specific interactions, which lead to the formation of a molecular imprint. The structural differences between 17-alpha-estradiol and 17-beta-estradiol are too small to permit their efficient separation on a MIP prepared with beta-estradiol as a template. Molecular modeling revealed the presence of only one hydrogen bond that differentiates the two isomers. 相似文献
