Enthalpic interactions between some amino acids and cyclohexanone in aqueous solutions at 298.15 K

The enthalpies of mixing of glycine, l-α-alanine, l-γ-aminobutyric acid, l-α-valine, l-α-serine and l-α-threonine with cyclohexanone in aqueous solutions and their respective enthalpies of dilution have been measured by calorimetry at 298.15 K. Experimental enthalpies of dilution and mixing have been correlated with the virial expansion equation that was obtained with the McMillan-Mayer theory. The enthalpic interaction parameters h_xy, h_xxy and h_xyy of the amino acids studied with cyclohexanone in aqueous solutions have been evaluated, and the heterotactic enthalpic pair interaction coefficients (h_xy) are discussed in terms of solute-solute interactions.     

Determination of Procymidone, Pentachloroaniline and Methyl-pentachloro-phenylsulfide Residues in Wine by MSPD-GC-ECD

A rapid method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) was developed for the determination of procymidone, pentachloroaniline and methyl-pentachloro-phenylsulfide in wine. After the optimisation of different parameters such as the type of adsorbent, the extraction solvent, and the extraction assistance by sonication. The analysis of samples was accomplished using gas chromatography with electron-capture detector (GC-ECD). Spiked blank samples were used as standards to counteract the matrix effect observed in the chromatographic determination. The recovery of the method was in the range 82.4–93.7% and a good linear relationship (R ² ≥ 0.9992) with relative standard deviations lower than 8%. The limits of detection (LOD) ranged from 0.1 to 0.4 μg L^?1. The proposed method was applied to the analysis of these compounds in commercial wine samples.     

聚N,N-二乙基丙烯酰胺溶液粘度的温度依赖性

通过自由基聚合,合成了线型聚N,N-二乙基丙烯酰胺（PDEA）,用乌氏粘度计测定并考察了该聚合物在四氢呋喃（THF）、H2O以及THF-H2O混合溶剂中粘度的温度依赖性.实验结果表明,PDEA 在上述三种溶剂中粘度的温度依赖性不同，PDEA-THF体系的相对粘度随温度升高而增大；PDEA-H2O体系以及PDEA-THF-H2O体系的相对粘度随温度升高而减小,且THF体积分数φTHF < 0.7时具有透明-白浊转变现象；对PDEA-THF-H2O体系,φTHF增加,透明-白浊转变温度升高,而当φTHF=0.7时,则观察不到透明-白浊转变现象.     

A family of single-isomer,sulfated gamma-cyclodextrin chiral resolving agents for capillary electrophoresis: octa(6-O-sulfo)-gamma-cyclodextrin

The second member of the single-isomer, sulfated gamma-cyclodextrin family, the sodium salt of octa(6-O-sulfo)-gamma-cyclodextrin (OS) has been synthesized, characterized and used to separate the enantiomers of nonelectrolyte, acidic, basic, and ampholytic analytes by capillary electrophoresis in acidic aqueous background electrolytes. The anionic effective mobilities of the nonelectrolyte and anionic analytes increased with increasing concentration of OS. The effective mobilities of strongly complexing cationic analytes became anionic with very low OS concentrations and passed local anionic effective mobility maxima as the OS concentration, and along with it, the ionic strength, of the background electrolyte increased. The effective mobilities of the weakly binding cationic analytes became only slightly anionic at high OS concentration values and did not show the local anionic effective mobility maxima. For nonelectrolyte analytes, separation selectivities decreased with increasing OS concentration. For cationic analytes, separation selectivities were highest where the effective mobilities of the less mobile enantiomers approached zero. OS proved to be a broadly applicable chiral resolving agent.     

Study of SPG membrane emulsification processes for the preparation of monodisperse core-shell microcapsules

Experimental investigations on the Shirasu-porous-glass (SPG)-membrane emulsification processes for preparing monodisperse core-shell microcapsules with porous membranes were carried out systematically. The results showed that, to get monodisperse oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions by SPG membrane emulsification, it was more important to choose an anionic surfactant than to consider hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) matching. Increasing the viscosity of either the disperse phase or the continuous phase or decreasing the solubility of the disperse phase in the continuous phase could improve both the monodispersity and the stability of emulsions. With increasing monomer concentration inside the disperse phase, the monodispersity of emulsions became slightly worse and the mean diameter of emulsions gradually became smaller. Monodisperse monomer-containing emulsions were obtained when the SPG membrane pore size was larger than 1.0 micro m, and from these emulsions satisfactory monodisperse core-shell microcapsules with a porous membrane were prepared. On the other hand, when the SPG membrane pore size was smaller than 1.0 mciro m, no monodisperse emulsions were obtained because of the formation and chokage of solid monomer crystals in the pores or at the end of the pores of the SPG membrane. This was due to the remarkable solvation and diffusion of the solvent in water. With increasing the emulsification time the average emulsion diameter generally decreased, and the monodispersity of the emulsions gradually became worse.     

Fluorescence immunoassay of alpha-fetoprotein with iron(III) tetrasulfonatophthalocyanine as a mimetic enzyme labeling reagent

A new fluorimetric immunoassay for alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) has been developed using a novel promising mimetic peroxidase, iron(III) tetrasulfonatophthalocyanine (FeTSPc), as a labeling reagent to catalyze the fluorescence reaction of P- hydroxyphenylacetic acid (P-HPA) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In the competitive immunoassay, anti-AFP antibody was coated on a 96-well plate (polystyrene) and a constant amount of FeTSPc-labeled AFP and a known amount of test solution were added. Non-labeled and FeTSPc-labeled AFP compete for binding to the plate-bound antibody. After the immunoreaction, the immunochemically adsorbed FeTSPc-AFP conjugate moiety was determined by measuring the fluorescence produced in a solution containing P-HPA and H2O2. AFP can be determined in the concentration range of 1-300 ng mL(-1) with a detection limit of 0.5 ng mL(-1).     

Rapid automated in-situ monitoring of total dissolved iron and total dissolved manganese in underground water by reverse-flow injection with chemiluminescence detection during the process of water treatment

Measurement of iron and manganese is very important in evaluating the quality of natural waters. We have constructed an automated Fe(II), total dissolved iron(TDI), Mn(II), and total dissolved manganese(TDM) analysis system for the quality control of underground drinking water by reverse flow injection analysis and chemiluminescence detection(rFIA-CL). The method is based on the measurement of the metal-catalyzed light emission from luminol oxidation by potassium periodate. The typical signal is a narrow peak, in which the height is proportional to light emitted and hence to the concentration of metal ions. The detection limits were 3 x 10(-6)mug ml(-1) for Fe(II) and the linear range extents up to 1.0 x 10(-4) and 5 x 10(-6)mug ml(-1) for Mn(II) cover a linear range to 1.0 x 10(-4)mug ml(-1). This method was used for automated in-situ monitoring of total dissolved iron and total dissolved manganese in underground water during water treatment.

Interlayer Energy Transfer from Naphthalene to Anthracene Chromophores Organized in Langmuir—Blodgett Films

Interlayer energy transfer between 2,3-naphthol-10-hexadecylaza-15-crown-5(NC16) and N-[1-(9-methoxyanthryl)] decylaza-15-crown-5(A10C) within multilayer Langmuir-Blodgett films has been studied by steady-state fluorescence spectra. The donor and acceptor could be separated precisely by inserting stearic acid (SA) spacers. The efficiency of the energy transfer increases with the decrease in the donor-acceptor distance by a quadratic manner, suggesting the donor excitations are delocalized in the layer.
