Simultaneous determination of cyromazine,melamine and their biodegradation products by ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography

An ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection method for the determination of cyromazine, melamine and its biodegradation products (ammeline, ammelide, cyanuric acid and biuret) was developed. C18 column was utilised to separate the six analytes with a mobile phase consisting of perchloric acid-ammonia solution and acetonitrile, under gradient elution and variable flow rate. The detection wavelengths were 205 nm for cyanuric acid and biuret and 222 nm for cyromazine, melamine, ammeline and ammelide. For analysis of sediment samples, the extraction solution containing acetonitrile, ammonia and water (80:10:10 by volume) was used to extract the analytes from sediment matrix. Using the extraction method for the spiked sediment sample, high linearity of matrix-matched standard curve could be obtained for the six analytes. The method detection limit was 0.1 μg g^?1 for melamine and cyromazine, 0.2 μg g^?1 for ammeline and ammelide, 1.2 μg g^?1 for cyanuric acid and 1.0 μg g^?1 for biuret in sediment matrix. The recoveries of these compounds were 70.1–98.3% and the relative standard deviations were 0.5–4.4%. Finally, the proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of the sediment sample near the wastewater outlet of a melamine-producing factory.     

Influence of different divalent metal ions on the properties of alginate microcapsules and microencapsulated cells

Different divalent metal ions (Ba²⁺, Sr²⁺, Ca²⁺, Zn²⁺) were selected as crosslinkers. The mechanical properties, cytocompatibility, histocompatibility, cell proliferation and long-term cultivation were investigated. The resulting microcapsules had good sphericity, smooth surface and particle size distribution of 300–400 μm. Sr²⁺ microcapsules exhibited a better mechanical strength. The molecular weights cut-off of all membranes were between 24 and 67 kDa. All microcapsules had no cytotoxicity. After intraperitoneal transplantation, the recovered microcapsules still maintained good mechanical strength and morphology with no fibrosis or macrophage aggregation phenomena. The microencapsulated PC12 cells showed no significant variation after recultivation following microcapsule breaking. The cell activity sequence of different microcapsules after 72 h was as follows: bare control cell >Sr²⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Ba²⁺ > Zn²⁺. After 9 weeks’ in vitro culture, the cell survival rate was higher than 80 %. This paper will be of scientific interests for the basic research and clinical application of alginate/chitosan microcapsules embedded with drugs or cells.     

Biomonitoring of infant exposure to phenolic endocrine disruptors using urine expressed from disposable gel diapers

Infant exposure to endocrine disruptors (EDs) may cause adverse health effects because of their fast growth and development during this life stage. However, collecting urine from infants for exposure assessment using biological monitoring is not an easy task. For this purpose, we evaluated the feasibility of using urine expressed from disposable gel absorbent diapers (GADs) as a matrix for biomonitoring selected phenolic EDs. GADs urine was expressed with the assistance of CaCl₂ and was collected using a device fabricated in our laboratory. The analytes were extracted and concentrated using a liquid-liquid method and their hydroxyl groups were modified by dansyl chloride to enhance their chromatography and detection. Finally, the analytes were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with electrospray ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). The target chemicals were bisphenol A, triclosan, 17 α-ethynylestradiol, the natural hormone estrone, and 17 β-estradiol. The ratio of the CaCl₂ to the urine-wetted gel absorbent, variation of the inter-urination volume, and analyte deposition bias in the diaper were assessed. Analyte blank values in the diapers, the sample storage stabilities, and recoveries of the analytes were also evaluated. The results showed that 70–80 % of the urine could be expressed from the diaper with the assistance of CaCl₂ and 70.5–124 % of the spiked analytes can be recovered in the expressed urine. The limits of detections (LODs) were 0.02–0.27 ng/mL, well within the range for detection in human populations. Our pilot data suggest that infants are widely exposed to the selected EDs.     

Liquid chromatography methodologies for the determination of steroid hormones in aquatic environmental systems

Steroid hormones are a diverse group of natural and synthetic compounds. Their wide use in human and veterinary medicine results in their continual introduction into the environment. In recent years, environmental concern over steroids that act as endocrine disruptors has increased because of their adverse effects on organisms or their progeny. Moreover, as these compounds are not totally removed from sewage in wastewater treatment plants, they can reach the aquatic environment and persist due to their physicochemical characteristics.For this reason, a major trend in analytical chemistry is the development of rapid and efficient procedures for the extraction, determination and quantification of steroid hormones in environmental samples. Over the past few decades, the significant expansion of liquid chromatography technology utilizing mass spectrometry detection has led to applications with increased selectivity and sensitivity. Optimized extraction and microextraction techniques combined to these liquid chromatography techniques have lowered detection and quantification limits to the ng L⁻¹–μg L⁻¹ range, which is the concentration of steroid hormones in liquid, solid and biota samples.In this paper, the state-of-the-art techniques for the analysis of steroid hormones focused mainly in based liquid chromatography methods in liquid and aquatic solid and biota samples are reviewed. Handling, storage, extraction and detection methodologies are reviewed and compared for all families of steroid hormones.     

Comparative Analysis of Hydration Layer Reorientation Dynamics of Antifreeze Protein and Protein Cytochrome P450

Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) inhibit ice recrystallization by a mechanism remaining largely elusive. Dynamics of AFPs' hydration water and its involvement in the antifreeze activity have not been identified conclusively. We herein, by simulation and theory, examined the water reorientation dynamics in the first hydration layer of an AFP from the spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana, compared with a protein cytochrome P450 (CYP). The increase of potential acceptor water molecules around donor water molecules leads to the acceleration of hydrogen bond exchange between water molecules. Therefore, the jump reorientation of water molecules around the AFP active region is accelerated. Due to the mutual coupling and excitation of hydrogen bond exchange, with the acceleration of hydrogen bond exchange, the rearrangement of the hydrogen bond network and the frame reorientation of water are accelerated. Therefore, the water reorientation dynamics of AFP is faster than that of CYP. The results of this study provide a new physical image of antifreeze protein and a new understanding of the antifreeze mechanism of antifreeze proteins.     

Rh(III)-catalyzed annulation of azobenzenes and α-Cl ketones toward 3-acyl-2H-indazoles

Rhodium(III)-catalyzed [4 + 1] cyclization of azobenzenes with α-Cl ketones has been developed. 3-Acyl-2H-indazoles could be easily afforded in up to 97% yields for more than 30 examples. The obtained products are potentially valuable in organic synthesis and drug discovery. This protocol featured with high efficiency, extensive functional group tolerance and mild reaction conditions. The one-step efficient construction of an anti-inflammatory agent confirms the practicability of this procedure.
