Detection of Tumor Necrosis Factor Gene by Piezoelectric Nucleic Acid Senosr

A piezoelectric nucleic acid sensor was constructed ofr detection of tumor necrosis factor gene.Two methods were employed for immobilization of nucleic acid probe on gold electrode of piezoelectric crystal.The results show that polyethyleneimine adbesion and glutaraldehyde cross-linking method has higher sensitivity,stability and selectivity than protein A method.The solid-phase nucleic acid hybridization of oligo unclecotides and tumor necrosis factor target gene sequence were monitorde using this sensor.Tumor necrosis factor gene sequence(580bp) was detected by this nucleic acid sensor for the first time.     

Two new sesquiterpene lactones with the sulfonic acid group from Saussurea lappa

Two new sesquiterpene lactones with the unusual sulfonic acid group, 13-sulfo-dihydrosantamarine (1) and 13-sulfo-dihydroreynosin (2), have been isolated from the roots of Saussurea lappa C. Their structures, including the absolute configurations, were elucidated by spectroscopic methods.

Cooperative Competition Clustering for Gene Selection

Clustering analysis of data from DNA microarray hybridization studies is an essential task for identifying biologically relevant groups of genes. Attribute cluster algorithm (ACA) has provided an attractive way to group and select meaningful genes. However, ACA needs much prior knowledge about the genes to set the number of clusters. In practical applications, if the number of clusters is misspecified, the performance of the ACA will deteriorate rapidly. We propose the Cooperative Competition Cluster Algorithm (CCCA) in this paper. In the algorithm, we assume that both cooperation and competition exist simultaneously between clusters in the process of clustering. By using this principle of Cooperative Competition, the number of clusters can be found in the process of clustering. Experimental results on a synthetic and gene expression data are demonstrated. The results show that CCCA can choose the number of clusters automatically and get excellent performance with respect to other competing methods.     

Luminescence Quenching between Ce and Eu in LAB3O6

The Ce³⁺ and Eu³⁺ ions in LaB₃O₆ quench each other's luminescence. However, Ce³⁺ quenches Eu³⁺ more effectively than Eu³⁺ quenches Ce³⁺. The critical distances for this quenching are about 15 and 6 Å respectively.

Application of Headspace Liquid-Phase Microextraction to the Analysis of Volatile Halocarbons in Water

The determination of four volatile halocarbons (CHCl₃, CCl₄, C₂HCl₃ and C₂Cl₄) in water by headspace liquid-phase microextraction (HS-LPME) with gas chromatography using a micro electron capture detector (GC-μECD) is described. The effects of the type and volume of the extraction solvent, headspace volume, stirring rate, extraction temperature and time and ionic strength on the extraction performance are investigated and optimized. The developed protocol yields a linear calibration curve in the concentration range from 0.05 to 50 µg L^?1 for the target analytes; the detection limits ranged from 0.003 to 0.146 µg L^?1 and the relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) values below 8.45%. The results demonstrate that HS-LPME followed with GC-μECD is a simple and reliable technique for the determination of volatile halocarbons in water samples.

Contractions with a unilateral shift summand are reflexive

If T is a contraction on the Hilbert space H and there is an invariant subspace K for T such that T/K is similar to a backward shift, then T is reflexive. If similarity is replaced by quasi-similarity, then the same conclusion holds under the additional condition that the defect index of T be finite.This research was partially supported by National Science Council (Republic of China).
