LC Method for Analysis of Three Flavonols in Rat Plasma and Urine after Oral Administration of Polygonum aviculare Extract

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the simultaneous analysis of the flavonols myricitrin (1), avicularin (2), and juglanin (3) in rat plasma and urine after oral administration of the total flavonoids from Polygonum aviculare. Samples were prepared by solid-phase extraction then separated on a C₁₈ reversed-phase column by use of a mobile-phase gradient prepared from methanol and aqueous formic acid solution. The flow rate was 1 mL min⁻¹. Detection was performed at 254 nm. The calibration range was 11–1,100 μg mL⁻¹ for both 2 and 3 in plasma; in urine the calibration ranges for 1, 2, and 3 were 32–1,600, 11–1,100, and 22–1,100 μg mL⁻¹, respectively. Intra-day and inter-day RSD were less than 4.33 and 3.62% for 2 and 3, respectively, in plasma, and no more than 4.03 and 2.22% for all the analytes in urine. The analytical sensitivity and selectivity of the assay enabled successful application to pharmacokinetic studies of flavonols 1–3 in rats.

     

多形性相变的分子动力学模拟

 本文利用分子动力学方法研究了KCl晶体在ρ＝ρ₀时的温度相变。面心立方（fcc）和体心立方（bcc）两种结构的径向分布函数随温度的变化的情况说明，在高压下，发生着bcc结构相fcc结构的转变，bcc结构是不稳定的。为了选取合理的势参数，利用了分子动力学程序在T＝0时的性质，计算了NaCl和KCl晶体的零温状态方程，研究了它们在压力作用下发生的多形性相变。计算表明，NaCl和KCl晶体将分别于18.8 GPa和5.9 GPa发生从fcc到bcc的多形性相变，这些值相当接近实验结果。着说明本文选用的势参数势有一定精度的。     

Regioregular poly(3‐alkanoylthiophene): Synthesis and electrochemical,photophysical, charge transport,and photovoltaic properties

Head‐to‐tail regioregular poly(3‐heptanoylthiophene) (PHOT) was synthesized by Ni‐catalyzed polycondensation of the 2,2‐dimethyl‐1,3‐propanediol‐protected Grignard monomer followed by deprotection. Cyclic voltammetric (CV) study demonstrates that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of PHOT are 0.5 eV lower in energy than those of the head‐to‐tail poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (HT‐P3HT). Their optical band gaps are essentially the same. Incomplete photoluminescence (PL) quenching was observed in thin films of the 1:1 blend of PHOT and HT‐P3HT. PHOT displayed a glass transition at ～269 °C and decomposed at ～300 °C according to differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) study showed that PHOT exists in a not highly ordered state in solid films especially in the π‐stacking direction. Only p‐channel activity was observed in field‐effect transistors (FETs) for PHOT. The hole mobility was on the order of 10^?4 cm² V^?1 s^?1. Photovoltaic devices with an active layer of 1:1 blend of PHOT and PC₇₁BM had a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of ～0.5%. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2010     

Exponential convergence of an epidemic model with time-varying delays

In this paper the convergence behavior of an epidemic model with time-varying delays are considered. Some sufficient conditions are established to ensure that all solutions of the epidemic model with permitted initial conditions converge exponentially to zero, which are new and complement previously known results.     

Pressure‐Induced Emission Enhancement of a Series of Dicyanovinyl‐Substituted Aromatics: Pressure Tuning of the Molecular Population with Different Conformations

A series of dicyanovinyl‐substituted aromatic compounds (Ar‐DCV; Ar=9‐anthracenyl, 1‐naphthyl, 1‐pyrenyl) with dual fluorescence are prepared, and their emission properties—when molecularly dispersed in a polymer medium—are investigated under pressure perturbation. The total emission intensity is enhanced drastically from ambient pressure up to 70 kbar. Emission 30–107 times more intense than that at ambient pressure is observed at higher pressure. In dual emission, the enhancement of the local excited state (LE state) is significantly different from that of the intramolecular charge‐transfer state (ICT state). The intensity of the ICT emission increases faster (30–370 times) than that of the LE emission (less than 20 times). In accordance with spectroscopic data, emission dynamics at different pressures, and computational studies on the molecular conformations of these compounds, a kinetic model is proposed to explain the effect of pressure on the emissive properties of the Ar‐DCV compounds from the point of view of pressure‐dependent populations of the species in the ground state.

Enhanced spin–orbit torque efficiency in Pt100−xNix alloy based magnetic bilayer

The binary alloy/ferromagnetic metal heterostructure has drawn extensive attention in the research field of spin–orbittorque(SOT)due to the potential enhancement of SOT efficiency via composition engineering.In this work,the magneticproperties and SOT efficiency in the Pt100?xNix/Ni78Fe22 bilayers were investigated via the spin-torque ferromagneticresonance(ST-FMR)technique.The effective magnetic anisotropy field and effective damping constant extracted by analyzing the ST-FMR spectra show a weak dependence on the Ni concentration.The effective spin-mixing conductanceof 8.40×10¹⁴??1·m?2and the interfacial spin transparency Tin of 0.59 were obtained for the sample of Pt70Ni30/NiFebilayer.More interestingly,the SOT efficiency that is carefully extracted from the angular dependence of ST-FMR spectrashows a nonmonotonic dependence on the Ni concentration,which reaches the maximum at x=18.The enhancement ofthe SOT efficiency by alloying the Ni with Pt shows potential in lowering the critical switching current.Moreover,alloyingrelatively cheaper Ni with Pt may promote to reduce the cost of SOT devices.     

Characterisation and effect of polymer network deformation in reverse-mode polymer-stabilised cholesteric texture

In reverse-mode polymer-stabilised cholesteric texture (PSCT), the dynamic response is derived from local director reorientation governed by dielectric coupling effect/self-assembly and polymer network deformation. A double exponential rise/decay model is proposed to investigate the underlying physical mechanisms. Through simulation of the transient rise and decay processes, the polymer network deformation in PSCT can be quantitatively evaluated. Less deformation and faster restoration speed of the polymer network can suppress hysteresis. These results provide useful guidelines for future PSCT fabrication and performance optimisation.     

Nonenzymatic Electrochemical Glucose Sensor Based on Pt Nanoparticles/Mesoporous Carbon Matrix

A nonenzymatic amperometric sensor for sensitive and selective detection of glucose has been constructed by using highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles supported onto mesoporous carbons (MCs). The Pt nanoparticles/mesoporous carbons (Pt/MCs) composites modified electrode displayed high electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of glucose. At an applied potential of 0.1 V, the Pt/MCs electrode has a linear dependence (R=0.996) in the glucose concentration up to 7.5 mM with a sensitivity of 8.52 mA M^?1 cm^?2. The Pt/MCs electrode has also shown highly resistant toward poisoning by chloride ions and without interference from the oxidation of common interfering species.

Cu(II) atom has an distorted octahedral environment with N₂O₄ donor set of Cu(1) and O₆ donor set of Cu(2), respectively. Each ligand is bound to two Cu(II) ions and each copper atom is coordinated by two ligands thereby generating a 1D zigzag chain. The 1D chain was interacted each other feathering three-dimensional supramolecular network through π···π interactions and multiform intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
