Mn(II)-sodium dodecyl sulphate complex mimic enzyme-catalyzed fluorescence quenching of Pyronine B by hydrogen peroxide

Mn(II)-sodium dodecyl sulphate complex (Mn(II)-SDS) is used to mimic the active group of peroxidase. The catalytic characteristic of this mimic enzyme catalyst in the oxidation reaction of fluorescence substrate, tetraethyldiaminoxanthyl chloride (Pyronine B (PB)), with hydrogen peroxide has been studied. The experimental results show that Mn(II)-SDS complex has similar catalytic activity that of peroxidase. The steady-state catalytic rate depends upon mimic enzyme and substrate concentrations, and the Michaelis-Menten parameters K_m, V_max and K_cat are 7.6×10⁻⁶ M, 7.9×10⁻⁷ M s⁻¹ and 7.9 s⁻¹, respectively. The catalytic activity of Mn(II)-SDS complex is compared with those of HRP and Hemin. Though the catalytic activity of Mn(II)-SDS complex is 15.9% of that of HRP, it can catalyze the oxidation reaction of PB with hydrogen peroxide lead to fluorescence quenching of PB. Under optimum conditions, linear relationship between fluorescence quenching F₀/F and concentration of H₂O₂ is in the range of (0.0-3.6) × 10⁻⁷ M. The detection limit is determined to be 3.0×10⁻⁹ M. By coupling this mimic catalytic reaction with the catalytic reaction of glucose oxidase (GOD), glucose can be detected. Linear relationship between F₀/F and concentration of glucose is in the range of (0.0-1.4) × 10⁻⁷ M. The detection limit is determined to be 4.2×10⁻⁹ M. This method is applied to the determination of glucose in human serum and the results are in good agreement with the phenol-4-aminoantipyrine (4-AAP).     

Citrinin selective molecularly imprinted polymers for SPE

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for citrinin (Cit) with 1‐hydroxy‐2‐naphthoic acid (HNA) as mimic template were prepared and the molecularly imprinted SPE method was developed for the detection of Cit in rice with HPLC. The adsorption properties of HNA and Cit on the MIPs and nonimprinted polymers were investigated. It proved that MIPs showed higher selectivity adsorption to HNA and Cit than nonimprinted polymers were. The recoveries of Cit in rice were in the range of 86.7–97.7%. The spiked rice samples and five rice samples in Beijing market were detected using molecularly imprinted SPE method and satisfied results were obtained as discussed in this article.     

Comparison of binding behavior for molecularly imprinted polymers prepared by hierarchical imprinting or Pickering emulsion polymerization

The aim of this study was the evaluation of the binding performances and selectivity of molecularly imprinted beads prepared toward several penicillins (i) by hierarchical bulk polymerization in the pores of template‐grafted silica microbeads (hMIPs) and (ii) by Pickering emulsion polymerization in the presence of template‐decorated silica nanobeads (pMIPs). 6‐Aminopenicillanic acid was chosen as the common fragmental mimic template. Both approaches produced micron‐sized polymeric beads with good recognition properties toward the target ligands whereas the selectivity pattern appeared quite different. The polymer prepared by the Pickering emulsion approach showed binding properties similar to imprinted beads prepared by hierarchical approach. Equilibrium binding constants changed their values from 0.1–0.2 × 10⁶ (hMIPs) to 0.2–0.6 × 10⁶ M^?1 (pMIPs), while the binding site densities changed from 3.7–4.8 (hMIPs) to 0.3–0.55 μmol/g (pMIPs). Compared to the hierarchical polymerization, Pickering emulsion polymerization represents a more practical approach when a template mimic needs to be used.     

Mimic oil recovery with a SDBS–dodecane–silica gel system

The wettability of the solid powder of silica gel was determined via a modified Washburn equation expressed as contact angles. The interfacial tension (γ) between the dodecane and the dilute sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) aqueous solution was obtained using the spinning drop (γ<10 mN m⁻¹) or drop volume methods (γ>10 mN m⁻¹). Contact angle changes for SDBS aqueous solutions on the surface of a silica gel powder were studied. The average aggregation number of SDBS micelles in aqueous solution was determined using the fluorescence quenching method. The relationship between the wettability of the powder surface, the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of SDBS and the mimic oil recovery of the resident oil on the powder surface has been explored. It has been found that good residual oil recovery was achieved by surface wettability changes at the interfacial tensions around 4–5 mN m⁻¹, which is far from the ‘ultra low’ condition (≤10⁻³ mN m⁻¹).

A virtual library of constrained cyclic tetrapeptides that mimics all four side-chain orientations for over half the reverse turns in the protein data bank

Reverse turns are often recognition sites for protein/protein interactions and, therefore, valuable potential targets for determining recognition motifs in development of potential therapeutics. A virtual combinatorial library of cyclic tetrapeptides (CTPs) was generated and the bonds in the low-energy structures were overlapped with canonical reverse-turn Calpha-Cbeta bonds (Tran et al., J Comput Aided Mol Des 19(8):551-566, 2005) to determine the utility of CTPs as reverse-turn peptidomimetics. All reverse turns in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) with a crystal structures resolution < or = 3.0 A were classified into the same known canonical reverse-turn Calpha-Cbeta bond clusters (Tran et al., J Comput Aided Mol Des 19(8):551-566, 2005). CTP reverse-turn mimics were compiled that mimicked both the relative orientations of three of the four as well as all four Calpha-Cbeta bonds in the reverse turns of the PDB. 54% of reverse turns represented in the PDB had eight or more CTPs structures that mimicked the orientation of all four of the Calpha-Cbeta bonds in the reverse turn.
