Bamboo-shaped Ag-doped TiO2 nanowires with heterojunctions

Bamboo-shaped Ag-doped TiO2 nanowires with heterojunctions were synthesized by a simple solvothermal method. The diameter of the nanowires was about 50-100 nm, and they had a length of up to a few millimeters. The detailed structure of the heterojunction in the nanowire was also characterized.

On-chip potential gradient detection with a portable capillary electrophoresis system

A portable chip-CE system with potential gradient detection (PGD) was developed and applied to the determinations of alkali metals and alkaloids. The separation efficiency appeared to be satisfactory and nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) proved to be applicable to PGD or conductivity detection. The power supplies, separation and detection were built on a device of 3 kg in weight. A branch channel near the end of the separation channel was designed to perform PGD and make the application of relatively high field strength possible. The study is the first report on the application of PGD on the microchip platform. The design of the chip-CE system shows several advantages, such as simplicity, miniaturization and wide applicability.     

Electrochemical behavior of poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane-b-dimethylsiloxane) films

The electrochemical behavior of poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane-b-dimethylsiloxane) (PFDMS-b-PDMS) films deposited on a glassy carbon electrode was investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry (CV). The influences of the solvent, film thickness, temperature, and PDMS block length in PFDMS-b-PDMS on the electrode process were discussed. It was found that in 0.1 M aqueous LiClO(4) the electrochemical processes of the films on a glassy carbon electrode were complex and have a low rate of electron transport and mass diffusion. The kinetic parameters obtained indicated that the electrode process was controlled by both the electrode reaction and mass diffusion.

Determination of ephedrine alkaloids by capillary electrophoresis

A simple and rapid method for the simultaneous determination of six ephedrine alkaloids (ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, norephedrine, norpseudoephedrine, methylephedrine and methylpseudoephedrine) in Ephedrae herba by capillary electrophoresis was developed. A buffer solution that contained 0.005 M barium hydroxide and 0.02 M isoleucine and adjusted to pH 10.0 with ammonia solution was found to be the most suitable electrolyte for this separation. The contents of the six alkaloids in the crude drug of Ephedrae herba could be easily determined.     

一种新型侧链液晶聚合物的喇曼光谱研究

The Raman scattering on a novel liquid crystal side chain polymer, poly-2,5-bis (p-meth-oxybenzoyloxy) styrene, has been performed. We observed that the characteristic Raman sp-ctra of the vinyl group in the monomer changed much deeply in the polymer, especially for the Raman line correponding to the C=C of the vinyl group which disappeared completly in the polymer. Contrast with that, the Raman spetra of the rest group did not present any substantial difference between the monomer and the polymer. These experimental facts show-ed that the vinyl group of the monomer was tranfered to the polymeric backbone while the chemical structure of the mesogenic unit in the monomer remained after the polymerization,and also conformed that it was successful in the synthesis of a liquid crystal side chain plymer without a flexible spacer between the mesomorphic unit and the molecular main chain.     

Synthesis and in vivo study of metallofullerene based MRI contrast agent

Gd@C₈₂(OH)₄₀ has been developed as a new generation of MRI contrast agent. But recently, it was found that Gd@C₈₂(OH) _x with a larger number of OH (x>36) would lead to cage break and hence, release of highly toxic Gd ions. We synthesized the more stable Gd@C₈₂(OH) _x with less OH-number, Gd@C₈₂(OH)₁₆, and studied its proton relaxivity and MRI images. The results indicate that Gd@C₈₂(OH)₁₆ also gives high proton relaxivity, even higher than that of (NMG)₂-Gd-DTPA. The bio-distribution indicated that Gd@C₈₂(OH)₁₆ tends to be entrapped in the liver and kidney and remained in tissue for about 2 hours. The results suggest that the more stable metallofullerene derivative Gd@C₈₂(OH)₁₆ can be the potential candidate of the new MRI contrast agent.
