荧光探针法研究色氨酸二肽与DNA的相互作用

以溴化乙锭(EB)为荧光探针,对色氨酸二肽(Trp-Trp)与小牛胸腺DNA的作用机制进行了研究,考查了酸度、离子强度及磷酸根离子对Trp-rrp与DNA相互作用的影响;结果表明,在ph 7.2的模拟体液条件下,Tro-Trp可与DNA发生相互作用;向DNA-EB体系中加入Trp-Trp时荧光逐渐减弱,这说明Trp-Trp 能与DNA发生作用.通过ScatehaId方程进一步分析发现,Trp-Trp对DNA-EB的影响表现为混合模式:一方面,Trp-Trp能中和DNA上的磷氧负离子,导致DNA链收缩,从而影响DNA的构象,使嵌入的EB从DNA中部分游离出来,荧光减弱;另一方面,Trp-Trp与EB也存在静电位点竞争.

Electrochemistry and Voltammetric Determination of Adenosine with N‐Hexylpyridinium Hexafluorophosphate Modified Electrode

An ionic liquid N‐hexylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate (HPPF₆) modified carbon paste electrode was fabricated for the sensitive voltammetric determination of adenosine in this paper. Carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was prepared by mixing graphite powder and HPPF₆ together and the CILE was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical methods. The electrochemical behaviors of adenosine on the CILE were studied carefully. Compared with the traditional carbon paste electrode (CPE), a small negative shift of the oxidation peak potential appeared with greatly increase of the oxidation peak current, which indicated the presence of ionic liquid in the carbon paste not only as the binder but also as the modifier and promoter. Under the optimal conditions the oxidation peak current increased with the adenosine concentration in the range from 1.0×10^?6 mol/L to 1.4×10^?4 mol/L with the detection limit of 9.1×10^?7 mol/L (S/N=3) by differential pulse voltammetry. The proposed method was applied to the human urine samples detection with satisfactory results.     

Electrochemical Biosensor Based on Carbon Ionic Liquid Electrode Modified with Nafion/Hemoglobin/DNA Composite Film

A new electrochemical biosensor was constructed by immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb) on a DNA modified carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE), which was prepared by using 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIMBF₄) as the modifier. UV‐vis absorption spectroscopic result indicated that Hb remained its native conformation in the composite film. The fabricated Nafion/Hb/DNA/CILE was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). A pair of well‐defined redox peaks was obtained on the modified electrode, indicated that the Nafion and DNA composite film provided an excellent biocompatible microenvironment for keeping the native structure of Hb and promoting the direct electron transfer rate of Hb with the basal electrode. The electrochemical parameters of Hb in the composite film were further calculated with the results of the charge transfer coefficient (α) and the apparent heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k_s) as 0.41 and 0.31 s^?1. The proposed electrochemical biosensor showed good electrocatalytic response to the reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA), H₂O₂, NO and the apparent Michaelis–Menten constant (K_M^app) for the electrocatalytic reaction was calculated, respectively.     

A novel anode supported BaCe0.4Zr0.3Sn0.1Y0.2O3−δ electrolyte membrane for proton conducting solid oxide fuel cells

A novel BaCe_0.4Zr_0.3 Sn_0.1Y_0.2O_3−δ (BSY) electrolyte membrane with thickness of 20 μm was fabricated on NiO-based anode substrate via a one-step all-solid-state method followed by a co-sintering at 1450 °C for 5 h. Chemical stability test demonstrated that BSY electrolyte showed adequate chemical stability against CO₂ and H₂O at intermediate temperature. Besides, the doping of Sn also enhanced the conductivity in humidified hydrogen. With Nd_0.7Sr_0.3MnO_3−σ cathode and hydrogen fuel, the fuel cell generated maximum output of 320, 185 and 105 mW cm⁻² at 700, 650 and 600 °C, respectively. The interfacial resistance of the fuel cell was studied under open circuit conditions and the short-term cell performance also confirmed the stability of BSY electrolyte membrane.

Structures, photoluminescence, and reversible vapoluminescence properties of neutral platinum(II) complexes containing extended pi-conjugated cyclometalated ligands

Reacting K2PtCl4 with the tridentate R-C(wedge)N(wedge)C-H2 ligands 2,6-di-(2'-naphthyl)-4-R-pyridine (R = H, 1a; Ph, 1b; 4-BrC6H4, 1c; 3,5-F2C6H3, 1d) in glacial acetic acid, followed by heating in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), gave complexes [(R-C(wedge)N(wedge)C)Pt(DMSO)] (2a-d). In the crystal structures of 2a-c, the molecules are paired in a head-to-tail orientation with Pt...Pt separations >6.3 A, and there are extensive close C-H...pi (d = 2.656-2.891 A), pi...pi (d = 3.322-3.399 A), and C-H...O=S (d = 2.265-2.643 A) contacts. [(Ph-C(wedge)N(wedge)C)Pt(PPh3)] (3) was prepared by reacting 2b with PPh3. Reactions of 2a-d with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) gave [(R-C(wedge)N(wedge)C)2Pt2(mu-dppm)] (4a-d). Both head-to-head (syn) and head-to-tail (anti) conformations were found for 4a.6CHCl3.C5H12, whereas only one conformation was observed for 4b.2CHCl3 (syn), 4c.3CH2Cl2 (syn), and 4d.2CHCl3 (anti). In the crystal structures of 4a-d, there are close intramolecular Pt...Pt contacts of 3.272-3.441 A in the syn conformers, and long intramolecular Pt...Pt separations of 5.681-5.714 A in the anti conformers. There are weak C-H...X (d = 2.497-3.134 A) and X...X (X = Cl or Br; d = 2.973-3.655 A) interactions between molecules 4a-d and occluded CHCl3/CH2Cl2 molecules, and their solvent channels are of varying diameters (approximately 9-28 A). Complexes 2a-d, 3, and 4a-d are photoluminescent in the solid state, with emission maxima at 602-643 nm. Upon exposure to volatile organic compounds, 4a shows a fast and reversible vapoluminescent response, which is most intense with volatile halogenated solvents (except CCl4). Powder X-ray diffraction analysis of desolvated 4a revealed a more condensed molecular packing of syn and anti complexes than crystal 4a.6CHCl3.C5H12.     

Elasticity reconstruction for ultrasound elastography using a radial compression: an inverse approach

To reduce the inherent mechanical artifacts in the strain images, many groups have investigated solutions to the inverse problem in elastography. However, in prostate elastography or intravascular elastography where the compression direction is radial, the inverse problem has not been studied thoroughly. In this paper, an iterative approach is proposed to reconstruct tissue elasticity for ultrasound elastography using a radial compression. The method is based upon the stress-strain relations in the polar coordinates. Computer simulations in an intravascular model are performed to illustrate the feasibility of this method in reducing the mechanical artifacts of the strain images. The reconstructed elasticity error and the contrast-transfer efficiency (CTE) as a function of the iteration number show that the inverse approach converges with a few iterations.
