Magnetic,Electrical and Thermal Studies of Polypyrrole-Fe<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> Nanocomposites

This research paper comprises of the synthesis of polypyrrole (PPy)-Fe₂O₃ nanocomposites by employing the in situ chemical oxidative polymerization method. The concentration of the filler material was adjusted between 10–50 wt % of PPy. The synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD). Magnetic analysis and DC electrical conductivity of the samples were carried out using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and two probe DC conductivity method, point towards magnetically active and electrically conductive samples. The magnetic parameters under applied magnetic field demonstrated that the values of coercivity (H _c ), saturation magnetization (M _s ) and remanence (M _r ) can be tailored by carefully controlling the amount of dopant material into the nanocomposites indicating their suitability for controllable switching devices and microwave absorption applications. The DC electrical conductivity showed an increase up to 20 wt % of filler material and thereafter a decrease in the conductivity of nanocomposites with increase in filler content is observed. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed an increase in thermal stability with an increase in ferrite content in nanocomposites.     

生物催化进展:从计算到代谢工程（英文）

经过数次技术研究和超常创新战略的大发展,生物催化逐渐达到工业化水平,从而受到人们特别的关注.基于酶值,通过生物途径生产高附加值化合物和精细工业化学品成为人们最感兴趣的领域之一.更广泛的众多生物化学路线可由酶催化来实现,其中还有一些酶尚未被人们发现.另一方面,由于非同源底物和某些化学过程所必需的苛刻条件,导致酶催化过程的效率低、稳定性差,因而限制了生物催化的应用.因此,开发具有多催化特征、更高效率和稳定性的绿色催化剂,成为生物催化的重中之重.计算科学、代谢工程、合成生物,以及机器学习路线的运用为新催化剂的工程化提供了新方法.本文重点介绍了合成生物学和代谢工程在催化中的作用,讨论了用于催化的机器学习算法和如何选择一种预测蛋白质-配体相互作用的算法;为了预测键合和催化功能,综述了分子对接的重要性;最后给出了结束语、未来挑战和前景展望.

Isoflavonoid glycosides from the rhizomes of Iris germanica

Four isoflavone glycosides were isolated from the rhizomes of Iris germanica. Compounds 1 and 2 are new, while compounds 3 and 4 are known isoflavone glycosides. These compounds were identified as iriskashmirianin 4'-O-beta-D-glucoside (1), nigricin 4'-O-beta-D-glucoside (2), irilone 4'-O-beta-D-glucoside (3) and iridin (4). Their structures were determined with the help of spectroscopic methods.

Synthesis of small cyclic peptides via reverse turn induced ring closing metathesis of tripeptides

A reverse turn induced (gamma/beta-turn) cyclization of tripeptides 1 can be performed in a ring closing metathesis reaction with Grubbs' catalyst to the corresponding cyclic peptides 2. These cyclic peptides may be useful probes as a conformationally constrained mimic of the bioactive conformation of structurally related HIV protease inhibitors.     

Extension of the A1Σ+-X1Σ+ system of7LiH near the dissociation limit

The absorption spectra of⁷LiH have been photographed in the 3,500?2,900 Å region using the second order of a 3.4 M Ebert spectrograph. Observations comprise previously observedA ¹ Σ ⁺-X ¹ Σ ⁺ transitions and several new vibrational bands of this system near the ionisation limit. Rotational and vibrational analysis of these bands (16≦V′≦20) have been carried out and the rotational constants for the upper states have been determined.     

Chemical separation of molybdenum from uranium and fission product nuclides

A very rapid method for the separation of molybdenum(VI) from neutron irradiated uranium and its fission products is described. The procedure is based on the selective extraction of molybdenum(VI) by a 0.1M solution of 2-hexylpyridine in benzene from 4M HCl+0.04M KSCN. Decontamination factors were estimated to be >10⁴ for the radionuclides of niobium, zirconium, ruthenium, lanthanum, cerium, promethium, yttrium, strontium and barium.
