Preparation of a novel self-assembling nonlinear optical (NLO) polymer film

A novel self-assembling crosslinking second harmonic generation nonlinear optical (SHG/NLO) film with high SHG coefficient (2×10-7 e.s,u.by IR dichroism) was prepared by morecular design and "in-situ poling and sol-gel process".The content of the NLO chromophore (S)-(-)-1-(4)-mtrophenyl-2-pyrrolidinemethanol (NPP) is as high as 50 mol% since NPP molecules probably disperse in the film at a molecular level The film is rigid,uni form and transparent.This designed clathrate supermolecular structure was poved by IR,atomic force microseopv (AFM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) detection.The title film exhibits a long-term temporal stability with 95% of the initial value of SHG coefficient maintained even after 20 d at 65℃(by UV spectroscopy)

Development and validation of a high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry assay for the determination of zaleplon in human plasma

In this paper, a sensitive and rapid chromatographic procedure using a selective analytical detection method (electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry in selected-ion monitoring mode) in combination with a simple and efficient sample preparation step is first presented for the determination of zaleplon in human plasma. The separation of the analyte, internal standard, and possible endogenous compounds are accomplished on a phenomenex Luna 5-microm C8(2) column (250- x 4.6-mm i.d.) with methanol-water (75:25, v/v) as the mobile phase. In order to optimize the mass detection of zaleplon, several parameters such as ionization mode, fragmentor voltage, m/z ratios of ions monitored, type of organic modifier, and eluent additive in the mobile phase are discussed. An internal standard is selected to guarantee the quantitative accuracy. Each analysis takes less than 6 min. The calibration curve of zaleplon in the range of 0.1-60.0 ng/mL in plasma is linear with a correlation coefficient of > 0.9992, and the detection limit (s/n = 3) is 0.1 ng/mL. The within- and between-day variations (relative standard deviation) in the zaleplon plasma analysis are less than 2.4% (n = 15) and 4.7% (n = 15), respectively. The application of this method is demonstrated for the analysis of zeleplon plasma samples in a Phase-I human pharmacokinetic study.     

Size-based analysis of incinerator fly ash using gravitational SPLITT fractionation, sedimentation field-flow fractionation, and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy

Fly ash has been regarded as hazardous because of its high adsorption of toxic organic and/or inorganic pollutants. Fly ash is also known to have broad distributions of different chemical and physical properties, such as size and density. In this study, fly ash emitted from a solid waste incinerator was pre-fractionated into six sub-populations by use of gravitational SPLITT fractionation (GSF). The GSF fractions were then analyzed by sedimentation field-flow fractionation (SdFFF) and ICP–AES. SdFFF analysis showed the fly ash has a broad size distribution ranging from a few nanometers up to about 50 µm. SdFFF results were confirmed by electron microscopy. Inductively coupled plasma–atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP–AES) analysis of the GSF fractions showed the fly-ash particles contain a variety of inorganic elements including Ca, Si, Mg, Fe, and Pb. The most abundant in fly ash was Ca, followed by Si then Mg. No correlations were found between trace element concentration and particle size.
