Analysis of Metabolites in Allantoic Fluid of Chicken Embryo by 900 MHz NMR Spectroscopy

900 MHz ¹H NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy was used to analyze metabolites in allantoic fluid of the chicken embryo in the 9th incubation day without any chemical or physical sample separation. The result showed that superhigh spectral dispersion and sensitivity at 900 MHz are useful in directly analyzing a complex mixture, particularly in resolving the overlapped NMR resonances. In this study, we had assigned 61 metabolites and 26 chemical fragments in the allantoic fluid. The relative concentrations of the major metabolites were also measured. Among the assigned metabolites, some were detected by NMR in chicken embryo allantoic fluids for the first time. The biological functions of these compounds were briefly discussed.

p型未掺杂富锌ZnO薄膜的形成和性能研究

以高纯ZnO为靶材,氩气为溅射气体,利用射频磁控溅射技术在石英衬底上生长出纤锌矿结构的富锌ZnO薄膜.薄膜沿(002)择优取向生长,厚约为1.2μm,呈现电绝缘特性.将溅射的ZnO薄膜在10-3Pa,510~1 000 K的温度范围等温退火1 h,室温Hall测量结果表明ZnO薄膜的导电性能经历了由绝缘—n型—p型—n型半导体的变化.XPS测试表明ZnO薄膜的Zn/O离子比随退火温度的升高而降低,但一直是富锌ZnO,说明未掺杂的富锌ZnO也可以形成p型导电.p型未掺杂富锌ZnO薄膜的形成可归因于VZn受主浓度可以克服VO和Zni本征施主的补偿效应.     

Flat-top interleavers with chromatic dispersion compensator based on phase dispersive free space Mach-Zehnder interferometer

In this paper, novel interleavers using circular cavities (CC) in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) has been presented and demonstrated for the first time, in which CCs act as phase dispersive mirrors which exhibit a periodic dependence on the frequency of light. Three implementation schemes have been proposed and investigated. Theoretical analysis shows the spectral characteristics of each scheme in a 50-GHz channel spacing application. Furthermore, the chromatic dispersion (CD) of each output comb can be flattened within passband by appending an additional CC. The result shows that the proposed designs with novel interferometer technique can simultaneously provide flat top passbands, high isolation stopband and low CD value as well.     

Complete systems, elementary submodels and the tightness of upper hyperspaces

We introduce and study some completeness properties for systems of open coverings of a given topological space. A Hausdorff space admitting a system of cardinality κ satisfying one of these properties is of type Gκ. Hence, we define several new variants of the ?ech number and use elementary submodels to determine further results. We introduce M-hulls and M-networks, for M elementary submodel. As an application, we give estimates for both the tightness and the Lindelöf number of a generic upper hyperspace. Two recent results of Costantini, Holá and Vitolo on the tightness of co-compact hyperspaces follow from ours as corollaries.

Chemically controlled pattern formation in phase-separating materials

Summary The role of chemical reactions in the selection of patterns in phase-separating mixtures is presented. Linearized theory and computer simulation show that the initial long-wavelength instability characteristic of spinodal decomposition is suppressed by chemical reactions, which restrict domain growth to intermediate length scales even in the late stages of phase separation. Our findings suggest that chemical reactions may provide a novel way to stabilize and tune the steady-state morphology of phase-separating materials.

Normal Vietoris Implies Compactness: A Short Proof

One of the most celebrated results in the theory of hyperspaces says that if the Vietoris topology on the family of all nonempty closed subsets of a given space is normal, then the space is compact (Ivanova-Keesling-Velichko). The known proofs use cardinality arguments and are long. In this paper we present a short proof using known results concerning Hausdorff uniformities.     

Flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of sulfadiazine and sulfamethoxazole in pharmaceuticals and urine.

A rapid and sensitive flow-injection spectrophotometric method is proposed for the determination of sulfadiazine and sulfamethoxazole. This method is based on the diazotization of sulfonamide with sodium nitrite, and a coupling reaction of the diazo-compound with alpha-naphthylamine. The optimum experimental conditions are obtained by using the controlled and weighted centroid simplex method. The linear ranges for the determination of sulfadiazine and sulfamethoxazole are 0.2-20 microg ml(-1) and 0.1-20 microg ml(-1), and their detection limits are 0.06 microg ml(-1) and 0.05 microg ml(-1), respectively, and the sampling frequency is 130 samples per hour. The method has been used to determine sulfadiazine and sulfamethoxazole in pharmaceuticals and urine without separation. The results are in agreement with those obtained by a high-performance liquid chromatograph technique at the 95% confidence level.
