钙钛矿锰氧化物(La1-xGdx)4/3Sr5/3Mn2O7 (x=0, 0.025) 磁性和输运性质研究

采用传统的高温固相烧结法制备了双层钙钛矿锰氧化物(La_1-xGd_x)_4/3Sr_5/3Mn₂ O₇ (x=0, 0.025)多晶样品. 通过X射线衍射仪研究发现样品为Sr₃Ti₂O₇型四方结构, 空间群为I4/mmm; 磁性测量表明, Gd³⁺掺杂后的样品(La_0.975Gd_0.025)_4/3Sr_5/3Mn₂O₇的三维磁有序转变温度(T_C1^3D)、磁化强度(M)均降低, 这是由于Gd³⁺的掺杂引起晶格的畸变, 从而使得晶格常数发生改变, 减弱了铁磁耦合而导致的; 通过电子自旋共振谱测量发现, 在T_C^3D<T<300 K温度范围内, 两样品在顺磁的基体上均有短程的铁磁团簇存在, 出现了相分离现象. 电性测量表明: 两样品分别在T_C1^3D (La_4/3Sr_5/3Mn₂O₇ 样品的三维磁有序转变温度, T_C0^3D)<T<300 K温度范围内均以三维变程跳跃的方式导电, 分析得出Gd³⁺的掺杂使得载流子局域长度的减小. 这表明载流子需要吸收更多的能量才能克服晶格的束缚进行跳跃, 因此(La_0.975Gd_0.025)_4/3Sr_5/3Mn₂ O₇ 样品的电阻较高.     

Hydrodynamic lift of vesicles and red blood cells in flow — from Fåhræus & Lindqvist to microfluidic cell sorting

Hydrodynamic lift forces acting on cells and particles in fluid flow receive ongoing attention from medicine, mathematics, physics and engineering. The early findings of Fåhræus & Lindqvist on the viscosity change of blood with the diameter of capillaries motivated extensive studies both experimentally and theoretically to illuminate the underlying physics. We review this historical development that led to the discovery of the inertial and non-inertial lift forces and elucidate the origins of these forces that are still not entirely clear. Exploiting microfluidic techniques induced a tremendous amount of new insights especially into the more complex interactions between the flow field and deformable objects like vesicles or red blood cells. We trace the way from the investigation of single cell dynamics to the recent developments of microfluidic techniques for particle and cell sorting using hydrodynamic forces. Such continuous and label-free on-chip cell sorting devices promise to revolutionize medical analyses for personalized point-of-care diagnosis. We present the state-of-the-art of different hydrodynamic lift-based techniques and discuss their advantages and limitations.

Analytical characterization of alcohol-ethoxylate substances by instrumental separation techniques

The characterization of alcohol-ethoxylate substances is a significant challenge in analytical science. Their importance in industry and society makes it necessary to have methods for their rapid, reliable characterization and quantification. This overview highlights the instrumental separation techniques for their analysis - chromatographic (e.g., gas, liquid and supercritical fluid chromatography) and electrophoretic (e.g., capillary, gel, capillary zone, and non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis and micellar electrokinetic chromatography). We summarize and explain analytical parameters for their characterization. We include selected references and examples to show the appropriateness of instrumental separation techniques for the analytical characterization of alcohol-ethoxylate substances.

Determination of platinum and palladium in road dust after their separation on immobilized fungus by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

A flow solid phase extraction procedure based on biosorption of Pt(IV) and Pd(II) on Aspergillus sp. immobilized on cellulose resin Cellex-T was proposed for the separation and preconcentration of Pt and Pd before their determination by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS). The analytical conditions including sample pH, eluent type, flow rates of sample and eluent solutions were examined. The analytes were selectively retained on the biosorbent in acidic medium (pH 1) and subsequently eluted from the column with 1 mL of thiourea solution (0.25 mol L^− 1 thiourea in 0.3 mol L^− 1 HCl). The reproducibility of the procedure was below 5%. The limit of detection of the method was 0.020 ng mL^− 1 for Pt and 0.012 ng mL^− 1 for Pd. The method validation was performed by analysis of certified reference materials BCR-723 (tunnel dust) and SARM-76 (platinum ore). The developed separation procedure was applied to the determination of Pt and Pd in road dust samples by ETAAS.The applied biosorbent is characterized by high sorption capacity: 0.47 mg g^− 1 for Pt and 1.24 mg g^− 1 for Pd.

Centrifugally-driven sample extraction, preconcentration and purification in microfluidic compact discs

Centrifugally-driven microfluidic compact discs (μ-CDs) have attracted significant interest within the analytical science community in the past decade, with the primary focus on the potential of such platforms for performing parallel and/or multiplex biological assays and further application in biomedical diagnostics. More recently, μ-CD-based devices were also applied to environmental analysis as platforms for multi-sample extraction and transportation, prior to off-disc analysis in the laboratory. This review critically summarizes recent developments in μ-CD platforms for sample extraction, preconcentration, fractionation and purification in bioanalytical and environmental applications. We also summarize the common methods employed in the fabrication of μ-CD platforms. Further, we discuss preparation of stationary phases in microfluidic channels embedded in μ-CDs, as applications of μ-CDs in sample extraction are generally based on enclosed series of extraction phases and microcolumns.     

Analysis of primaquine and its metabolite carboxyprimaquine in biological samples: enantiomeric separation, method validation and quantification

The clinical formulation of primaquine (PQ) is a mixture of (−)‐(R)‐ and (+)‐(S)‐ primaquine enantiomers which may show different pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. To assess the efficacy and toxicity of primaquine enantiomers, a method using LC‐MSD‐TOF has been developed. The enantiomers were well separated using a Chiralcel OD column (250 × 4.6 mm, 10 µm) with a linear gradient of mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile (0.1% formic acid) and aqueous ammonium formate (20 mm ; 0.1% formic acid) adjusted to pH 5.9 at a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min. The method was validated for linearity, precision, accuracy and limits of detection and quantification. The calibration curves were linear with all correlation coefficients being >0.999. The average recoveries of (−)‐(R)‐ and (+)‐(S)‐primaquine and (−)‐(R)‐ and (+)‐(S)‐carboxyprimaquine were 88 and 92%, respectively, in spiked human plasma and 89 and 93% respectively in spiked mouse plasma samples. The RSD of (−)‐(R)‐ and (+)‐(S)‐primaquine and (−)‐(R)‐ and (+)‐(S)‐carboxyprimaquine were 2.15, 1.74, 1.73 and 2.31, respectively, in spiked human plasma and 2.21, 1.09, 1.95 and 1.17% in spiked mouse plasma, respectively. The intra‐day and inter‐day precisions expressed as RSD were lower than 10% in all analyzed quality control levels. The method as reported is suitable for study of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the enantiomers of primaquine. The method was successfully applied to study plasma pharmacokinetic profile of enantiomers of primaquine and carboxyprimaquine in mice administered with primaquine in racemic form. The analytical method was found to be linear, accurate, precise and specific. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
