Use of NIRS technology with a remote reflectance fibre-optic probe for predicting major components in bee pollen

In the present work, we study the use of near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) technology together with a remote reflectance fibre-optic probe for determination of the major components in bee pollen. The method allows immediate control of the bee pollen without prior sample treatment or destruction through direct application of the fibre-optic probe to the sample.The regression method employed was modified partial least squares (MPLS). The calibration results obtained using 45 samples of bee pollen allowed the measurement of protein, moisture, ash, reducing sugars, and pH with multiple correlation coefficients (RSQ) and prediction corrected standard errors (SEPC) of 0.91, 0.56% for protein, of 0.78 and 0.49% for moisture; 0.92 and 0.049% for ash; 0.81 and 1.32 g of glucose/100 g of bee pollen; 0.84 and 0.15 for pH, respectively.The prediction capacity of the pattern was checked by applying it to samples of unknown pollen in external validation.     

Calculation of vertical ionization potentials of difluoramine by perturbation corrections to koopmans' theorem

The vertical ionization potentials of difluoramine are calculated by perturbation corrections to Koopmans' theorem. The calculation shows that difluoraimine has three overlapping bands between 15 and 16 eV. The calculated results compare well with the experimental values. The photoelectron spectrum of difluoramine is compared with that of OF₂ and CH₂F₂.     

Cellulose microfibrils from banana farming residues: isolation and characterization

Cellulose microfibrils have been prepared from banana rachis using a combination of chemical and mechanical treatments. The morphology and structure of the samples were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to characterize the chemical modifications of the samples after each treatment. Suspensions of bundled or individualized 5-nm-wide microfibrils were obtained after homogenization (PH) whereas an organosolv (PO) treatment resulted in shorter aggregates of parallel cellulose microcrystallites. The sharper rings in the X-ray diffraction pattern of the PO-treated sample suggest a higher crystallinity due to a more efficient removal of hemicelluloses and dissolution of amorphous zones by the acid treatment. Both microfibrils and microcrystals prepared by both methods can be used as reinforcing filler in nanocomposite materials.

Chemical and thermal analysis of the biopolymers in thyme (Thymus vulgaris)

Thyme (Thymus vulgaris) has been known, long time ago, for its aromatic properties. It contains essential oils and polymers such as cellulose (mixture of hemicellulose and cellulose) and lignin. The thyme, studied in this work, was gathered from the same place, in the period from November 1999 to October 2000. The chemical analysis (water, total ash, essential oils, extractive substances, cellulose, holocellulose and lignin) can be used roughly in the characterisation of the four periods that correspond to the four seasons of the year. The cellulose level was found to be more than lignin level in the wet periods (growth of the plant). The opposite was found in the dry periods. The total ash and essential oil levels were found to be high during the period of high pluviometry. The thermal decomposition of cellulose and holocellulose was found to fit well with the first-order kinetics. The activation energy, under air flow, was 185 and 196 kJ mol⁻¹ for cellulose and holocellulose, respectively. The maximum decomposition rate and thermal analysis heating rate of lignin were found to have a direct linear relationship.

射频磁控溅射CNx薄膜的结构与衬底温度关系的研究

使用射频磁控溅射方法在不同衬底温度下（ts=室温，350，500℃）于Si(001)衬底上沉积了CNx膜，并利用拉曼（Raman)光谱、傅里叶变换红外光谱（FTIR）及X射线衍射光电子能谱（XPS）对CNx膜的化学结合状态与温度的关系进行了研究。Raman光谱结果表明，随衬底温度（ts) 增加，D带向低频方向移动，G带向高频方向移动；它们的半高宽分别由375和150cm^-1减小至328和142cm^-1；ID／IG由3．76减小至2.88。FTIR谱中除无序D带（1400cm^-1)和石墨G带（1570cm^-1)外，还有－700cm^-1,～2210cm^-1(C=N),2330cm^-1(C-O)及3255－3351cm^-1(N-H)等峰。XPS测试结果表明：随衬底温度增加，N与C的物质的量比由0.49下降至0.38，sp^2(C-N)组分与sp^3(C-N)组分强度比呈增大趋势。低温（350℃）退火并未对CNx膜的化学结合状态产生较大影响；高温（900℃）退火样品则显示出较好的结晶化程度。

Potentiometric studies of dithiooxamide with a sulphide-selective membrane electrode

The sulphide-selective electrode is applicable to the determination of dithiooxamide by titration with silver nitrate. The effect of the alkali content of the solutions on the reaction has been studied. The reaction products are silver sulphide, oxalic acid, and nitric acid. If the alkali concentration of the solution is lower than that equivalent to the acid formed during the titration, the amount of sulphide produced by hydrolysis decreases and the equilibrium potential is established more slowly.The determination is rapid and accurate in the presence of 1 M sodium hydroxide.
