Preparation of a novel self-assembling nonlinear optical (NLO) polymer film

A novel self-assembling crosslinking second harmonic generation nonlinear optical (SHG/NLO) film with high SHG coefficient (2×10-7 e.s,u.by IR dichroism) was prepared by morecular design and "in-situ poling and sol-gel process".The content of the NLO chromophore (S)-(-)-1-(4)-mtrophenyl-2-pyrrolidinemethanol (NPP) is as high as 50 mol% since NPP molecules probably disperse in the film at a molecular level The film is rigid,uni form and transparent.This designed clathrate supermolecular structure was poved by IR,atomic force microseopv (AFM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) detection.The title film exhibits a long-term temporal stability with 95% of the initial value of SHG coefficient maintained even after 20 d at 65℃(by UV spectroscopy)

Development and validation of a high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry assay for the determination of zaleplon in human plasma

In this paper, a sensitive and rapid chromatographic procedure using a selective analytical detection method (electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry in selected-ion monitoring mode) in combination with a simple and efficient sample preparation step is first presented for the determination of zaleplon in human plasma. The separation of the analyte, internal standard, and possible endogenous compounds are accomplished on a phenomenex Luna 5-microm C8(2) column (250- x 4.6-mm i.d.) with methanol-water (75:25, v/v) as the mobile phase. In order to optimize the mass detection of zaleplon, several parameters such as ionization mode, fragmentor voltage, m/z ratios of ions monitored, type of organic modifier, and eluent additive in the mobile phase are discussed. An internal standard is selected to guarantee the quantitative accuracy. Each analysis takes less than 6 min. The calibration curve of zaleplon in the range of 0.1-60.0 ng/mL in plasma is linear with a correlation coefficient of > 0.9992, and the detection limit (s/n = 3) is 0.1 ng/mL. The within- and between-day variations (relative standard deviation) in the zaleplon plasma analysis are less than 2.4% (n = 15) and 4.7% (n = 15), respectively. The application of this method is demonstrated for the analysis of zeleplon plasma samples in a Phase-I human pharmacokinetic study.     

Size-based analysis of incinerator fly ash using gravitational SPLITT fractionation, sedimentation field-flow fractionation, and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy

Fly ash has been regarded as hazardous because of its high adsorption of toxic organic and/or inorganic pollutants. Fly ash is also known to have broad distributions of different chemical and physical properties, such as size and density. In this study, fly ash emitted from a solid waste incinerator was pre-fractionated into six sub-populations by use of gravitational SPLITT fractionation (GSF). The GSF fractions were then analyzed by sedimentation field-flow fractionation (SdFFF) and ICP–AES. SdFFF analysis showed the fly ash has a broad size distribution ranging from a few nanometers up to about 50 µm. SdFFF results were confirmed by electron microscopy. Inductively coupled plasma–atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP–AES) analysis of the GSF fractions showed the fly-ash particles contain a variety of inorganic elements including Ca, Si, Mg, Fe, and Pb. The most abundant in fly ash was Ca, followed by Si then Mg. No correlations were found between trace element concentration and particle size.

Optical detection of triggered atherosclerotic plaque disruption by fluorescence emission analysis

Fluorescence emission analysis (FEA) has proven to be very sensitive for the detection of elastin, collagen and lipids, which are recognized as the major sources of autofluorescence in vascular tissues. FEA has also been reported to detect venous thromboemboli. In this paper we have tested the hypothesis that FEA can reproducibly detect in vivo and in vitro triggered plaque disruption and thrombosis in a rabbit model. Fluorescence emission (FE) spectra, recorded in vivo, detected Russell's viper venom (RVV)-induced transformation of atherosclerotic plaque. FE intensity at 410-490 nm 4 weeks after angioplasty was significantly lower (P < 0.0033 by analysis of variance) in RVV-treated rabbits when compared to control animals with stable plaque. FE spectral profile analyses also demonstrated a significant change in curve shape as demonstrated by polynomial regression analysis (R2 from 0.980 to 0.997). We have also demonstrated an excellent correlation between changes in FE intensity and the structural characteristics detected at different stages of "unstable atherosclerotic plaque" development using multiple regression analysis (R2 = 0.989). Thus, FEA applied in vivo is a sensitive and highly informative diagnostic technique for detection of triggered atherosclerotic plaque disruption and related structural changes, associated with plaque transformation, in a rabbit model.     

Surface functionalization of ordered mesoporous carbons--a comparative study

Hexagonally structured mesoporous carbons C15 and CMK-5 and cubically structured carbon C48 were synthesized using ordered silica SBA-15 and MCM-48 as templates and carbon precursors of different structures. The surfaces of these ordered carbons were chemically functionalized by employing an approach, in which the selected diazonium compounds were in situ generated and reacted with the carbon frameworks of the mesoporous carbons. The aromatic organic molecules containing chlorine, ester, and alkyl groups were covalently attached to the surface of these ordered mesoporous carbons. The presence of functional groups on the modified carbons was confirmed with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and nitrogen adsorption. The BET-specific surface area and the pore width of ordered carbons were significantly reduced, whereas the primary structure of these ordered carbons and their unit cells were intact. Basically, the density of grafted functional groups is related to the specific surface area of the sample, particularly the surface area of mesopores. The surface functionalization reaction takes place only on the external surface of carbon C15, while it occurs on both of the internal and external surface of CMK-5 carbon with the nanopipe structure. The presence of the micropores in CMK-5 carbon should be responsible for its lower grafting density because the small micropores are inaccessible in the reaction. It was also proposed that the preferred adsorption/reaction in C48 may be related to the observed unsymmetrical degradation of the XRD patterns for the functionalized C48 samples. The chemical modification process considerably reduced the primary mesopores in these ordered carbons by approximately 1-1.5 nm, affording carbons with micropores in the cases of C15 and C48, and mixed micropores and small mesopores in the case of CMK-5. A grafting density of approximately 0.9-1.5 micromol/m(2) was achieved under current research.
