Characterization and determination of a complex mixture of fatty acid methyl esters was performed for commercial fish oil using two-dimensional GC-MS data coupled with resolution techniques. Various principle component analysis methods such as significant factor analysis and fixed size moving window evolving factor analysis were used for the number of factors, zero concentration and selective regions. Then, the convoluted chromatograms were resolved into pure chromatograms and mass spectra using heuristic evolving latent projections (HELP) method. Fatty acids of C16:1omega7, C18:4omega3, C18:1omega11, C18:1omega9, C18:0, C20:2omega6, C20:1omega9, C22:1omega11, C22:1omega9 and C24:1omega9 were resolved an fied by using similarity searches between deconvoluted mass spectra and MS database, in different parts of total ion current chromatogram. Window target testing factor analysis is also applied for confirming the presence or absence of target analytes. The results of the present work show that combination of hyphenated chromatographic methods and resolution techniques provide a complementary method for accurate analysis of real multi-component systems such as fish oil. 相似文献
Abstract A new route to the synthesis of 2-arylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones has been developed through heterocyclization of 2-amino-4,5-dimethylthiophene-3-carboxamide
with aromatic aldehydes in boiling glacial acetic acid followed by air oxidation. The unoxidized intermediates, 2-aryl-2,3-dihydrothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(1H)-ones, are isolated when the reactions are carried out either at room temperature or under a nitrogen atmosphere.

We introduce capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) as an efficient means for the on-line separation and identification of protein mixtures. It was found that while CE/electrospray ionization (ESI)-MS analysis of whole-cell lysate was too complicated for the one-dimensional CE-MS analysis, the technique was useful for the analysis of protein mixtures of moderate complexity (approximately 50 intact proteins). CE/ESI-MS was applied to the subcellular proteomics of ribosomal Escherichia coli. 55 out of the 56 ribosomal proteins were detected with ease by using only approximately 3.4 ng of ribosomal proteins. In addition, it was found that the mass accuracy of the conventional MS (such as quadrupole ion traps) was good enough to identify many post-translational modifications of the intact proteins by simply comparing their measured average molecular weight with the average molecular weight predicted from gene banks. 相似文献
In this research, we report the preparation of a high sensitive voltammetric sensor for electrocatalytic determination of hydroxylamine (HX) in the presence of thiosulfate (TS). We describe the synthesis and characterization of CdO nanoparticles (CdO/NPs) with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) methods. At an optimum condition, the two peaks are separated ca. 0.58 and 0.92 V for HX and TS at the surface of the proposed sensor. Square wave voltammetry (SWV) of HX exhibited two linear dynamic ranges with a detection limit (3σ) of 0.06 µmol L?1. The propose sensor was used for determination of HX in water samples. 相似文献
The CompassR (computer-assisted recombination) rule enables, among beneficial substitutions, the identification of those that can be recombined in directed evolution. Herein, a recombination strategy is systematically investigated to minimize experimental efforts and maximize possible improvements. In total, 15 beneficial substitutions from Bacillus subtilis lipase A (BSLA), which improves resistance to the organic cosolvent 1,4-dioxane (DOX), were studied to compare two recombination strategies, the two-gene recombination process (2GenReP) and the in silico guided recombination process (InSiReP), employing CompassR. Remarkably, both strategies yielded a highly DOX-resistant variant, M4 (I12R/Y49R/E65H/N98R/K122E/L124K), with up to 14.6-fold improvement after screening of about 270 clones. M4 has a remarkably enhanced resistance in 60 % (v/v) acetone (6.0-fold), 30 % (v/v) ethanol (2.1-fold), and 60 % (v/v) methanol (2.4-fold) compared with wild-type BSLA. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed that attracting water molecules by charged surface substitutions is the main driver for increasing the DOX resistance of BSLA M4. Both strategies and obtained molecular knowledge can likely be used to improve the properties of other enzymes with a similar α/β-hydrolase fold. 相似文献
The complex anatomy of teeth limits the accessibility and efficacy of regenerative treatments. Therefore, the application of well-known inducers as injectable hydrogels for the regeneration of the dentin-pulp complex is considered a promising approach. In this regard, this study aimed to develop an injectable hydrogel containing mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). The injectable chitosan/oxidized-nanocrystalline cellulose/MTA (CS/OCNC/MTA) hydrogels were prepared, and the physicochemical properties of these hydrogels were evaluated by TGA, FTIR, Rheological analysis, and SEM. Moreover, the effect of MTA on the swelling and degradability of scaffolds was assessed. The proliferative effects of synthesized hydrogels were also determined on human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) by MTT assay. For induction of differentiation and biomineralization in these cells, the alkaline phosphatase activity and Alizarin Red S staining tests were performed in the presence of fabricated scaffolds. The proliferation of hDPSCs was significantly increased in the presence of these hydrogels. Moreover, the addition of MTA to hydrogel structure dramatically improved the differentiation of hDPSCs. These results suggested that this novel injectable hydrogel provides appropriate physiochemical properties and can be considered a promising scaffold for regenerative endodontic procedures.

Injury potential may have a triggering biological role in wound healing. In this study, the effect of photostimulation to promote wound healing and its effect on injury potential was investigated using the Ga-As and He-Ne lasers. In this study, 30 healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control and two laser groups, He-Ne and Ga-As laser. A 2.5 cm craniocaudal full-thickness skin incision was made on each animal's dorsal region. Differential skin surface potential was measured before and immediately after the injury and also up to the 21st day, every other day. Wound surface area was also measured. Immediately after injury, wound potential significantly increased in all three groups. Maximum positive peak of injury potential was greater in Ga-As group compared to He-Ne laser and control groups (P<0.05) and lasting period of maximum positive potential in two laser groups was longer than that in the control group. There were no significant differences between the mean potential of before wounding and after the 15th, 17th, and 19th day in Ga-As, He-Ne, and control group, respectively (P>0.05). On the other hand, Ga-As and He-Ne laser facilitated the normal distribution of skin potential after wounding. These findings demonstrate that Ga-As laser may be more effective on wound closure and on returning the injury potential to normal level than the He-Ne laser. 相似文献
The comparative electrochemical behavior of self-assembled monolayers of two Schiff's bases, 2-{[(Z)-1-(3-furyl)methylidene]amino}-1-benzenethiol (FMAB) and 2-{[(2-sulfanylphenyl)imino]methyl}phenol (SIMP) on a bare gold electrode (Au FMAB SAM-modified electrode and Au SIMP SAM-modified electrode, respectively), was investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in a 0.1 mol L(-1) KCl solution that contains 5.0 × 10(-3) mol L(-1) [Fe(CN)(6)](3-/4-). The results revealed that the modified electrodes showed an electrocatalytic activity toward the anodic oxidation of dopamine by a marked enhancement in the current response and lower overpotential (60 and 90 mV for the Au FMAB and Au SIMP SAM-modified electrodes, respectively) in phosphate buffer solution at pH 6.0. The Au SIMP SAM-modified electrode was applied successfully to the determination of dopamine in the presence of a high concentration of ascorbic acid. Selective detection was realized in total elimination of ascorbic acid response-a method different from the ones based on the potential separations. The detection limit of dopamine was 5.0 × 10(-8) mol L(-1) in a linear range from 1.0 × 10(-6) to 1.2 × 10(-4) mol L(-1) in the presence of 1.0 × 10(-3) mol L(-1) ascorbic acid. The interference studies also showed that the Au SIMP SAM-modified electrode exhibited good selectivity in the presence of a large excess of uric acid and could be employed for the determination of dopamine in pharmaceutical formulations, plasma samples and human urine with adequate selectivity and precision. 相似文献
