Surface modification of poly(styrene-b-(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene) elastomer via photo-initiated graft polymerization of poly(ethylene glycol)

Poly(styrene-b-(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene) (SEBS) copolymer biomedical elastomer was covalently grafted with poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) via a photo-initiated graft polymerization technique. The surface graft polymerization of SEBS with PEGMA was verified by ATR-FTIR and XPS. Effect of graft polymerization parameters, i.e., monomer concentration, UV irradiation time and initiator concentration on the grafting density was investigated. Comparing with the virgin SEBS film, the PEGMA-modified SEBS film presented an enhanced wettability and a larger surface energy. Besides, the surface grafting of PEGMA imparted excellent anti-platelet adhesion and anti-protein adsorption to the SEBS surface.     

The Synthesis and Characterization of Mononuclear and Binuclear Iron(II) Clathrochelate Complexes Derived from 2,3-Butanedione Oxime Hydrazone

The synthesis and characterization of a new series of iron(II) clathrochelate complexes, including the first example of a binuclear covalently linked c1athrochelate complex, is reported. The ligand system is based on the bifunctional chelate 2,3-butanedione oxime hydrazone which forms a tris-complex with iron(II). The c1athrochelate is completed by capping the complex with both a boronic acid/oxime capping reaction and a formaldehyde/hydrazone capping reaction. Electrochemical and spectroscopic characterizations of the complexes are discussed.     

Review of recent advances in the preparation of organic polymer monoliths for liquid chromatography of large molecules

In recent years the use of monolithic polymers in separation science has greatly increased due to the advantages these materials present over particle-based stationary phases, such as their relative ease of preparation and good permeability. For these reasons, these materials present high potential as stationary phases for the separation and purification of large molecules such as proteins, peptides, nucleic acids and cells. An example of this is the wide range of commercial available polymer-based monolithic columns now present in the market.     

Rheological Behaviors and Properties of Poly (Ether Ether Ketone) In-Situ Blends: Effect of Chemical Structure of Added Thermotropic Liquid Crystalline Polyarylates

Abstract

Two kinds of thermotropic liquid crystalline polyesters (TLCP) with different chemical structures were used as flow modifiers during the melt spinning of poly (ether ether ketone). One of TLCPs, named PAT-S, was a kind of aromatic polyester synthesized from 4-acetoxybenzoicacid and 6-hydroxy-naphthoic acid, and the other one named, PEEKAR, was a block copolymer based on poly (ether ether ketene) (PEEK) oligomers and PAT-S oligomers. The effects of the chemical structures of the prepared TLCPs on the rheological behavior of the TLCP/PEEK blends were measured by rheological measurements, and then the structure and properties of the TLCP/PEEK in-situ blend fibers were studied by a series of methods, including differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide angle X-ray diffraction (WRXD), optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), orientation degree tests, mechanical properties tests, etc. The results showed that the melt viscosity of PEEK could be effectively reduced by nearly 20% by adding a small amount of PEEKAR or PAT-S with the viscosity reducing effect of PEEKAR on PEEK being greater than that of PAT-S; this was mainly caused by the better compatibility between PEEK and PEEKAR because of the similar segment structures. The crystallinity of the PEEK fibers increased by nearly 50% with addition of both TLCPs, indicating that both the PEEKAR and PAT-S could serve as nucleating agent as well. The results from the morphology analysis clearly proved that PEEKAR had a better compatibility with the PEEK resin compared with PAT-S. The tensile strength of the PEEK fibers could be improved to some extent by adding PEEKAR, while it was obviously reduced after adding PAT-S.     

Flow Injection Chemiluminescence Determination Of Tetracyclines

Abstract

A fast and simple flow injection chemiluminescence method for the determination of trace amounts of tetracyclines is proposed based on the chemiluminescence of the KMnO₄ - TCs redox reaction in acidic medium in the presence of a sensitizer, OP. The response to the concentration of tetracyclines is linear in the range of 1.00 to 1000 μg mL^?1 with a relative standard deviation < 2.3 % for determination of 50.0 μg mL^?1 of each antibiotic (n = 11). The detection limits for tetracycline, oxytetracycline and chlortetracycline are 0.40, 0.52 and 0.60 μg mL^?1, respectively. The recommended method is suitable for automatic and continuous analysis and has been successfully tested for determination of tetracyclines in commercial formulations. The chemiluminescence intensity was found to be remarkably enhanced when in the presence of OP micellar system; possible reasons for this observed micellar induced enhanced chemiluminescence is given.
