Imide-siloxane block copolymer/silica hybrid membranes: preparation, characterization and gas separation properties

Imide-siloxane block copolymer/silica hybrid membranes with covalent bonds were prepared via sol–gel reaction. The structural informations of these hybrid membranes were obtained by using Fourier transform-infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), ²⁹Si nuclear magnetic resonance (²⁹Si NMR), XPS and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The gas separation properties of the hybrid membranes were also investigated in terms of organosiloxane (PDMS) or silica content at various temperatures. In the hybrids, the addition of PDMS phase increased the permeabilities of gases such as He, CO₂, O₂, and N₂, indicating that the gas transport occurred mainly through rubbery organic matrix. Meanwhile, the PDMS phase contributed the decreased gas selectivities to nitrogen but the reduction in selectivities was very small in comparison with other siloxane containing polymeric membranes. This might be due to the restriction of chain mobility by the existence of inorganic component such as silica network in the hybrids. Additionally, the increase of silica content in these hybrid membranes considerably retarded the falling-off of gas selectivity at elevated temperature. The increase of silica content in hybrid membranes resulted in well-formed silica networks and hence these inorganic components restricted the plasticization of organic matrix by the thermal segmental motion of organic components, leading to preventing the large decrease of the gas selectivity.

Biotinylation: A nonradioactive method for the identification of cell surface antigens in immunoprecipitates

A nonradioactive method was employed to detect different cell membrane antigens on human polymorphonuclear granulocytes, monocytes and platelets. We compared the reactivity of one monoclonal antibody, N1III10, assumed to be FcγRII-specific by functional assays, with other well-characterized monoclonal antibodies and human sera. Intact cells were incubated with biotin N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide ester which preferentially reacts with lysine residues in polypeptides. Biotin-labeled cells were lysed and the antigen was isolated from the cell lysate by immunoprecipitation with the antibody bound to Protein A-Sepharose. The precipitates were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane, and visualized by a streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase system with a suitable substrate. Using this biotin-labeling system we could show that N1III10 detects a 40 kDa antigen on monocytes and platelets, comparable to that expected of FcγRII monoclonal antibodies.     

Renewable sol-gel carbon ceramic electrodes modified with a Ru-complex for the amperometric detection of l-cysteine and glutathione

A renewable three-dimensional chemically modified carbon ceramic electrode containing Ru [(tpy)(bpy)Cl] PF₆ was constructed by sol-gel technique. It exhibits an excellent electro-catalytic activity for oxidation of l-cysteine and glutathione at pH range 2-8. Cyclic voltammetry was employed to characterize the electrochemical behavior of the chemically modified electrode. The electrocatalytic behavior is further exploited as a sensitive detection scheme for l-cysteine and glutathione by hydrodynamic amperometry. Optimum pH value for detection is 2 for both l-cysteine and glutathione. The catalytic rate constants for l-cysteine and glutathione were determined, which were about 2.1×10³ and 2.5×10³ M⁻¹ s⁻¹, respectively. Under the optimized condition the calibration curves are linear in the concentration range 5-685 and 5-700 μM for l-cysteine and glutathione determination, respectively. The detection limit (S/N=3) and sensitivity is 1 μM, 5 nA/μM for l-cysteine and 1 μM, 7.8 nA/μM for glutathione. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for the amperogram's currents with five injections of l-cysteine or glutathione at concentration range of linear calibration is <1.5%. The advantages of this amperometric detector are: high sensitivity, good catalytic effect, short response time (t<3 s), remarkable long-term stability, simplicity of preparation and reproducibility of surface fouling (RSD for six successive polishing is 3.31%). This sensor can be used as a chromatographic detector for analysis of l-cysteine and glutathione.

Polarization Dependence of a Hydrophobized Electrode for Electrosynthesis of a Soluble Product

An equation for a polarization curve of a hydrophobized electrode is proposed for electrosynthesis of a soluble electroactive product in an inner-kinetic mode. The equation contains the concentration of the target product (TP) in an explicit form. The shape of the curve depends on the biquadratic root of the TP concentration and the square root of the ratio between exchange currents of the side and target reactions.     

邻菲啰啉对固定尿酸酶催化反应动力学的影响

The activation energy of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction for uric acid decreases markedly in the presence of o-phenanthroline, which activates the bioelectrochemicla activity of the polypyrrole uricase electrode. The response current of the enzyme electrodeis independent of the concentration of o-phenanthroline. Based on the experimental results, the mechamsm of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction for uric acid in the presence of o-phenanthroline is presented as follows: E+A→EA, EA+S EAS, EAS→EA+P, where E, A, S and P are the enzyme, activator, substrate and product, respectively. The effects of pH value, potential and the uric acid concentration on the response currents of the uricase electrode have been studied in the presence of o-phenanthroline. In the presence of o-phenanthroline, the response current of the enzyme electrode increase linearly with increasing concentration of uric acid in the region of 0.07 to 0.67 mmol·L~(-1), therefore the polypyrrole uricase electrode which has once lost its activity can be activated and used again to determine the substrate concentration.
