Construction and Analysis of N-phosphoryl Peptide Libraries

N-Phosphoryl peptide libraries were constructed by transformation from homo-oligopeptide libraries, which was synthesized by self-assembly of amino acids with the assistance of phosphorus oxychloride. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was used to monitor the reaction.

Clean Aerobic Liquid Oxidation of Aldehydes with Solid Catalyst

Clean liquid oxidation of aldehydes can be accomplished using solid catalyst in the presence of molecular oxygen at room temperature, which is a valuable alternative to traditional counterparts.     

Physico-chemical Characterization of Mo-Hβ Zeolite Catalysts

A series of Mo-impregnated Hβ samples, with MoO3 loading in Hβ zeolite in the mass fraction range of 0. 5%-6.0%, were studied by means of XRD and IR in order to characterize their structures. Mo/Hβ sampies‘ crystallinity almost linearly decreases with increasing the amount of MoO3 loaded, The IR spectra and XRD patterns suggest that the progressive destabilization of the Hβ zeolite structure is caused by increasing Mo loading in (MoO3 Hβ zeolite). During the calcination, Al2(MoO4)3 formed from the dealumination of Hβ zeolite, causes the substantially partial breakdown of the zeolite framework when the Mo loading in MoO3 Hβ is relatively high.     

Retention behaviour of carboxylic acid methyl esters in supercritical fluid chromatography

The study on retention behavior in supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is necessary to understand the mechanism of the various interactions in SFC. The retention of SFC in carboxylic acid methyl ester/polymethylsiloxane/CO2 system was studied systematically and the retention behavior of this kind of compounds under various typical operation conditions was described using the method of an alternative unified theory of chromatographic retention. The results illustrated that expression: Ink.= a + b/T + cp + dp/T + ep2/T can be used to describe quantitatively the retention behavior of carboxylic acid methyl ester/polymethylsiloxane/CO2 system in the ranges of reduced density from 0.549 to 1.411. It was also found that the entropy of solute in stationary phase is dependent on the density of supercritical fluid (SF) under typical operating conditions of SFC.     

Effect of Ultrasonication on Optical Properties and Electronic States of Conjugated Polymer MEH-PPV

Poly[2-methoxy-5-（2＇-ethyl-hexyloxy）-1,4-phenylene vinylene]（MEH-PPV）solutions with different concen-trations were prepared in chloroform for different ultrasonication times.The ultraviolet absorption and photoluminescence（PL）spectra of the MEH-PPV solutions were measured,and the electronic states of the polymer chains under different experimental conditions were studied.The results showed that the effects of ultrasonication on the dilute and concentrated solutions were different.After ultrasonication,the intensity of the absorption peak at 280 nm significantly decreased,relative to the absorption peak at 500 nm for both dilute and concentrated solutions,indicating that the proportion of the two excited states in the polymer chains had changed.For dilute MEH-PPV solutions,the blue-shifted absorption（at about 500 nm）and PL spectra show that ultrasonication also led to polymer chain degradation and thus shortened the effective conjugation length.For concentrated solutions,however,the peak positions of the absorption spectra remained unchanged.In addition,the effects of the solution temperatures on the optical spectra for the MEH-PPV solutions were also discussed.     

Ce（SO4）2-mediated Oxidative Coupling of Primary Aromatic Amines in Water

The oxidative coupling of primary aromatic amines was investigated. Ce(SO4)2 can mediate the oxidative coupling of primary aromatic amines in water to dimers, trimers and/or tetramers, which depended on the substituents of primary aromatic amines. When 2,6-dimethylaniline or 2,6-diethylaniline was used as substrate, dimer, and tetramer were formed as major products. When 2,6-diisopropylaniline or 2,6-dihaloanilines was used as substrate, dimer, and trimer were formed. The mechanistic aspect was also investi...     

Adjuvant Effects of Dual Co-stimulatory Molecules on Cellular Responses to HIV Multiple-epitope DNA Vaccination

Designing adjuvants that can induce strong cytotoxic T cell responses is largely required for preparing DNA vaccines. In this study we explored dual costimulatory molecules 4-1BBL and OX40L as adjuvants to improve the efficiency of the HIV multiple-epitope DNA vaccine. When explored in the human dendritic cell-T cell based coculture system,dual costimulatory molecules significantly enhanced the anti-HIV T cell response of the HIV mul-tiple-epitope DNA vaccine,as detected by intracellular cytokine staining t...     

Fluorescence-quenching of Tryptophan Ion-18-crown-6 Complex——A Different Observation from Its Neutral Counterpart

It is well-known that primary amines form inclusive complexes with crown ethers. This kind of noncova-lently inclusive complexes,exemplified tryptophan complex with 18-crown-6,was studied by combination of two experimental methods,fluorimetry and mass spectrometry,with theoretical calculation. Fluorescence intensity of tryptophan in the absence and the presence of 18-crown-6 in aqueous HAc-NaAc buffer solution at pH=3.73 has been studied by fluorometry. The fluorescence intensity decreases significantly wit...     

Hyperspectral datum classification using kernel method based on mutual information of neighbor bands

Under the framework of support vector machines, this paper proposes a new kernel method based on neighbor bands mutual information for hyperspectral datum classification. This algorithm assigns weights to different bands in the kernel function according to the amount of useful information that they contain, which makes the band with more useful informa- tion play more important role in the classification. Our research has shown that the band with greater mutual information between neighbor bands contains more useful information, and hencewe use the mutual information of each band and its neighbor bands as the weights of the proposed kernel method. The experimental results show that for the support vector machines based on polynomial and radial basis function, after introducing the proposed kernel function, the average accuracy is increased more than 1.2% without using any reference map or increasing much more computational time.
