Preparation and Properties of Chitosan/Konjac Glucomannan Blend Fibers

Chitosan and konjac glucomannan (KGM) blend fibers were prepared by spinning their solution through a viscose‐type spinneret into a coagulating bath containing aqueous sodium hydroxide and ethanol. The structure and properties of the blend fibers were studied with the aids of infrared spectra (IR), scanning electron micrography (SEM) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD). The structure analysis indicated that there were strong interaction and good miscibility between the chitosan and KGM molecule which resulted from intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Mechanical properties and water‐retention properties were measured. Through controlling blend conditions, blend fibers can obtain better mechanical properties than the pure chitosan fiber. The water‐retention values (WRV) of blend fibers increase as the amount of KGM is raised. The fibers treated with alcoholic solution of acetic acid have good antibacterial activity to Staphylococcus aureus.

Molecular simulation of model sulfated polysaccharides of low molecular weight from Ganoderma lucidum and their interaction with human serum albumin

The extracellular polysaccharides from Ganoderma lucidum possess low molecular weight and are mainly composed of (1 → 3)/(1 → 6) linked-α-glucan and (1 → 3)/(1 → 6) linked-α-galactose. In the present study, conformations of the polysaccharides were simulated and investigated using Discovery studio 2.5. Their sulfated derivatives were also taken into account. The simulation was performed using CHARMM force field. The results show that the polysaccharides exist as random coil conformations, while the sulfated derivatives adopt more extensive and stiffer conformations in most cases. In addition, the molecular docking between polysaccharide and human serum albumin (HSA) was also investigated using ZDOCK module in Discovery studio 2.5. It is shown that the unmodified polysaccharide possesses higher affinity with HSA than the sulfated derivatives do due to its higher ZDOCK score.     

LEAKY CHARACTERISTICS OF A NEW MILLIMETER WAVE ANTENNA BASED ON GROOVE GUIDE WITH AN ASYMMETRIC CONDUCTOR STRIP

A new millimeter wave leaky wave antenna is presented in this paper, which is a modification of the groove guide with an asymmetric conductor strip by introducing a dielectric slab into the conductor plane region of the groove guide antenna. The leakage property of the new antenna is carefully examined through calculations of an equivalent network, which is developed here with taking into account the coupling between different modes to guarantee the calculating accuracy. It has been found that the new leaky wave antenna is of larger leakage constant than that for the original groove guide antenna because of the introduction of the dielectric slab. Extensive numerical results of the leakage characteristics are given to establish useful guidelines for the design of the new type groove guide leaky wave antenna.     

Ultrasound promoted direct synthesis of nano Cu-Zn-Al-ZSM-5 in acid medium

Nano Cu-Zn-Al-ZSM-5 was directly synthesized in HCl solutions with the promotion of ultrasound. XRD results show that the appropriate concentrations of HCl in the synthetic process were between 0.25 M and 1 M, and the optimal crystallization time and temperature were 28 h and 200°C, respectively. The ultrasound irradiation can significantly increase the crystallization of Cu-Zn-Al-ZSM-5 within 0.5 h. SEM photographs of Cu-Zn-Al-ZSM-5 zeolite showed the crystal size is about 50–60 nm. Results of ICP/AES show that the weight% of Cu in 101(Cu-Zn-Al-SOD) and 202(Cu-Zn-Al-ZSM-5) were 4.42% and 2.30%, respectively.

Synthesis and computation of diastereomeric phenanthroline–quinine ligands and their application in asymmetric Henry reaction

A class of chiral ligands has been developed by combining phenanthroline with quinine in a one-step method that does not require resolution. The synthesized three ligands were then coordinated with Cu^(II) and the performance of the resultant chiral catalysts in the asymmetric Henry reaction was evaluated. Moderate to good yields (up to 86%) with high enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) were observed in the reactions catalyzed by one of the three catalysts. Theoretical calculations were performed to analyze the catalytic activities of the different Cu^(II)-ligand catalysts. Three different ligands were investigated and one ligand was found to adopt an unexpected five-coordinated mode; the second coordinated with two nitrogen atoms of phenanthroline to give a complex, which activated both substrates of Henry reaction; the third was unable to form a complex with Cu^(II).
