Correlation Study on Sweetness of Amino Acid with Different Configurations and Quantum Chemical Parameters

1 INTRODUCTION Since the introduction of QSAR by Hansch and Fujita in 1964, Deutsch and Hansch have quickly used it in the study of nitrophenylamine sweet reagents. They found good correlation between their distribution coefficients in octanol/water system and sweetness degree. Subsequently, they detected that vibration of aroma-substituent compounds has so- mething to do with sweetness. Henceforth, statistic correlations between structure and sweetness ofseries compounds have been inv…     

Fast electrophoretic separation of sulfur- and selenium-containig amino acid enantiomers with vancomycin as a chiral selector in coated capillaries

Baseline separation of the enantiomers of the negatively charged 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate (AQC) derivatives of cystine, methionine, ethionine, and their seleno analogs can be achieved in 3–5 min with capillary electrophoresis in polyacrylamide coated capillaries and submillimolar concentrations of vancomycin as the chiral selector. In addition to the vancomycin concentration, the separation is affected by the type, concentration and pH of the buffer. Good buffers are more suitable than phosphate buffer. At pH values above the isoelectric point of vancomycin the mobility difference between the enantiomers becomes smaller. This effect is larger than would be expected from the reversal of the vancomycin migration alone.     

Micellar and microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography of hop bitter acids

The elution order of the hop α- and β-acids has been studied under different modes of electrokinetic separation. A model is advanced to explain the shorter migration times of the more hydrophobic β-acids compared to the α-acids in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC). For quality control of the bitter principles in hops, the ruggedness of electrokinetic separation could be improved by replacing MEKC by microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (MEEKC).     

溶剂气浮法去除水中腐殖酸的动力学和热力学初步研究

研究了溶剂气浮法去除水中的腐殖酸,该技术可以作为生物处理后的填埋渗出液的后处理方法。腐殖酸通过与表面活性剂十六烷基三甲基溴化铵生成离子缔合物气浮进入有机溶剂异戊醇而从水中去除。大于计量比的表面活性剂的量在10 m in之内可达92%的去除率。气浮速率在一定程序上随着气流速率的增加而增加,基本上与有机溶剂的体积无关。同时,还考察了电解质、乙醇及溶液的pH值对水中腐殖酸的溶剂气浮过程的影响。研究表明,该溶剂气浮过程遵从一级动力学。气浮过程的表观活化能作为一个特征参数被提出来,其值为2.87 kJ/mol。     

芦荟茶中微量元素锰及其氨基酸含量的测定分析

采用原子吸收分光光度法测定了芦荟保健茶中微量元素锰的含量,氨基酸分析仪测定了17种氨基酸的含量,结果显示芦荟保健茶中含有较高的锰元素和丰富的氨基酸。红茶中锰的含量高于绿茶,其中锰元素在热水中的总溶出率可达50%以上,一次浸泡溶出率＞二次浸泡溶出率＞三次浸泡溶出率。茶中含有7种人体必需的氨基酸,其中较多的是天冬氨酸、谷氨酸、亮氨酸。高锰是该系列保健茶的显著特点。实验结果为探讨芦荟保健系列茶中微量元素和氨基酸与保健功能之间的关系提供了有用的数据。     

氨基酸官能团的太赫兹振动模式研究

对比于氨基酸的红外分析法,太赫兹波的电子能量更低,可实现无损检测。氨基酸分子内原子振动、分子间氢键的作用、以及晶体中晶格的低频振动均处于太赫兹波段,使其在太赫兹波段具有吸收峰,且不同的氨基酸分子太赫兹吸收峰不同,故可用氨基酸在太赫兹波段的这种“指纹特性”实现氨基酸类物质的定性分析。量子化学分析方法可以应用量子力学的基本原理和方法,研究稳定和不稳定分子的结构、性能及其之间的关系,还可以针对分子与分子间的相互作用、相互碰撞及相互反应等问题进行研究。通过量子化学计算方法计算氨基酸分子的太赫兹吸收谱,可以为氨基酸分子的太赫兹吸收峰匹配分子振动模式,对氨基酸定性分析有一定参考性与指向性,并为实验获取的样品太赫兹时域光谱提供理论支撑,在实验获得太赫兹吸收谱的基础上进行量子化学计算,还能为实验结果进行验证。首先利用太赫兹时域光谱技术获取了谷氨酰胺、苏氨酸、组氨酸的太赫兹吸收谱,分别构建这三种氨基酸样品在实物中以两性离子形式存在的单分子构型,利用量子化学计算方法在完成结构优化后进行太赫兹吸收谱模拟计算。计算结果表明三种氨基酸单分子的太赫兹吸收谱计算结果与实验获取的太赫兹吸收谱差异较大,但在高频段吸收峰峰位基本吻合。通过GaussView分别查看了这三种氨基酸分子在太赫兹段内的吸收峰对应频率处的振转情况,发现在高频段内三种氨基酸分子官能团均只发生转动而未见振动,并且转动模式基本一致。通过对氨基酸官能团的太赫兹吸收谱进行量子化学计算,将官能团在高频段内吸收峰对应频率处的振转模式与三种氨基酸分子在该段内吸收峰对应频率处的振转模式做了对比。研究表明,在氨基酸单分子构型下由量子化学方法计算所得的太赫兹吸收谱中,高频段内计算得出的模拟吸收峰与实验获取的太赫兹吸收峰基本吻合;振转模式分析发现,谷氨酰胺、苏氨酸、组氨酸在太赫兹高频段内的氨基酸官能团振转模式相同,三种氨基酸分子在高频段内的吸收峰主要来源于氨基酸官能团。因此,结合量子化学计算与太赫兹吸收谱可以实现氨基酸类物质的定性分析。     

Synthesis and characterization of cationic amino functionalized polystyrene latexes

Amino-functionalized latex particles were obtained batchwise by emulsion copolymerization of styrene and vinylbenzylamine hydrochloride (VBAH) in the presence of 2-2-Azobis(2-amidinopropane) HCl (V50). Size monodispersity of the particles was improved by using divinylbenzene (DVB) as a third monomer at a 2% molar ratio. Surface amino group titration was performed spectrometrically with N-succinimidyl 3-(2 pyridyldithio)propionate (SPDP). The yields of functional monomer incorporation were up to 85%.
