Tuning magnetic properties of magnetoelectric BiFeO3-NiFe2O4 nanostructures

Multifunctional thin film nanostructures containing soft magnetic materials such as nickel ferrite are interesting for potential applications in microwave signal processing because of the possibility to shrink the size of device architecture and limit device power consumption. An essential prerequisite to future applications of such a system is a firm understanding of its magnetic properties. We show that nanostructures composed of ferrimagnetic NiFe₂O₄ pillars in a multiferroic BiFeO₃ matrix can be tuned magnetically by altering the aspect ratio of the pillars by depositing films of varying thickness. Magnetic anisotropy is studied using ferromagnetic resonance, which shows that the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in the growth direction changes sign upon increasing the film thickness. The magnitude of this anisotropy contribution can be explained via a combination of shape and magnetostatic effects, using the object-oriented micromagnetic framework (OOMMF). The key factors determining the magnetic properties of the films are shown to be the aspect ratio of individual pillars and magnetostatic interactions between neighboring pillars.     

对-叔丁基杯[8]芳烃键合硅胶制备及其毛细管电色谱性能研究

以γ-(环氧丙氧)丙基键合硅胶为前体,于硅胶表面键合环氧基,在催化剂存在下以杯芳烃钠盐开环制备杯芳烃键合硅胶固定相.该方法反应条件温和,适用性强.将这个新方法首次用于制备对-叔丁基杯[8]芳烃电色谱键合固定相(C8BS),采用加压电色谱初步评价其电色谱性能.研究结果表明,C8BS电渗流(Electrosmoticflow,EOF)较小,但通过控制键合反应及使用压力辅助电色谱可部分弥补上述不足.该固定相的EOF受流动相pH影响小(pH=3-8),同时大环配体屏蔽效应能有效地克服硅羟基引起的碱性化合物拖尾现象,这对电色谱分离具有重要意义.通过分步封尾研究EOF的来源发现,杯芳烃酚羟基对EOF有弱的贡献,这与报道的杯芳烃涂层具有径向电渗流调控能力相一致.

Solvent isotope effects on interfacial protein electron transfer in crystals and electrode films

D(2)O-grown crystals of yeast zinc porphyrin substituted cytochrome c peroxidase (ZnCcP) in complex with yeast iso-1-cytochrome c (yCc) diffract to higher resolution (1.7 A) and pack differently than H(2)O-grown crystals (2.4-3.0 A). Two ZnCcP's bind the same yCc (porphyrin-to-porphyrin separations of 19 and 29 A), with one ZnCcP interacting through the same interface found in the H(2)O crystals. The triplet excited-state of at least one of the two unique ZnCcP's is quenched by electron transfer (ET) to Fe(III)yCc (k(e) = 220 s(-1)). Measurement of thermal recombination ET between Fe(II)yCc and ZnCcP+ in the D(2)O-treated crystals has both slow and fast components that differ by 2 orders of magnitude (k(eb)(1) = 2200 s(-1), k(eb)(2) = 30 s(-1)). Back ET in H(2)O-grown crystals is too fast for observation, but soaking H(2)O-grown crystals in D(2)O for hours generates slower back ET, with kinetics similar to those of the D(2)O-grown crystals (k(eb)(1) = 7000 s(-1), k(eb)(2) = 100 s(-1)). Protein-film voltammetry of yCc adsorbed to mixed alkanethiol monolayers on gold electrodes shows slower ET for D(2)O-grown yCc films than for H(2)O-grown films (k(H) = 800 s(-1); k(D) = 540 s(-1) at 20 degrees C). Soaking H(2)O- or D(2)O-grown films in the counter solvent produces an immediate inverse isotope effect that diminishes over hours until the ET rate reaches that found in the counter solvent. Thus, D(2)O substitution perturbs interactions and ET between yCc and either CcP or electrode films. The effects derive from slow exchanging protons or solvent molecules that in the crystal produce only small structural changes.     

NO-releasing zeolites and their antithrombotic properties

Transition metal-exchanged zeolite-A adsorbs and stores nitric oxide in relatively high capacity (up to 1 mmol of NO/g of zeolite). The stored NO is released on contact with an aqueous environment under biologically relevant conditions of temperature and pH. The release of the NO can be tuned by altering the chemical composition of the zeolite, by controlling the amount of water contacting the zeolite, and by blending the zeolite with different polymers. The high capacity of zeolite for NO makes it extremely attractive for use in biological and medical applications, and our experiments indicate that the NO released from Co-exchanged zeolite-A inhibits platelet aggregation and adhesion of human platelets in vitro.

Limitations of the scalp-hair biologic monitor in assessing selenium status in epidemiological investigations

Scalp hair is routinely used to assess exposure to toxic trace elements and nutritional status of some required trace elements. The advantages and disadvantages of hair as a biologic monitor have been comprehensively discussed in the literature for many years. Among the concerns is distinguishing between exogenous and endogenous contributions. Nested in this issue is the longitudinal distribution of a trace element along the hair strand. The typical observation for many elements of interest is that the element concentration increases from the root end to the distal end; and this is attributed to continuing contamination from exogenous sources. In this study we used neutron activation analysis to measure 14 trace elements in 6 mm segments of full-length scalp hair from three healthy members of the same household having light-urban environmental exposure. To extend the data set for selenium, we included three adult female subjects with longer than average scalp hair. From these trace-element concentrations we calculated the root-to-distal end ratios as a profile diagnostic of trace-element distributions. Ratios fall into three diagnostic categories, >1, ≈1, and <1 corresponding to profiles having decreasing root-to-distal concentrations, unchanging concentrations, and increasing concentrations, respectively. Of the 14 elements measured, only Se has R > 1, Zn and S have R ≈ 1, and the remaining 11 elements all have R < 1 in the order: As > I > Hg ≈ Au ≈ Mg ≈ Mn ≈ Sb ≈ Ca > Cu > Al ≈ Ag. R _Se is greater than 1 and increases with hair length (P = 0.02) corresponding to a continuous longitudinal loss of Se in stark and puzzling contrast to the other elements measured. An analogous loss of Se in the nail monitor was not observed leading us to conclude that the nail is less prone to misclassification of selenium status in epidemiological studies.
