Citrate selectivity of poly(neutral red) electropolymerized films

The synthesis and the spectroscopic and potentiometric characterization of electropolymerized films obtained from neutral red (NR) on Pt surface are described. FT Raman and NMR spectroscopy were used for evaluation of the resulting poly(NR) layers. Then potentiometry was applied to study the characteristics of the complexation of carboxylates with the poly(NR) films. A potentiometric poly(NR) sensor showing high selectivity for citrate anion was employed for its determination in soft drinks.     

光谱法和电化学法研究中性红与小牛胸腺DNA的相互作用

利用紫外 可见和圆二色光谱(CD)法和伏安方法,研究了小分子染料中性红(NR)与小牛胸腺DNA(CTDNA)的相互作用。实验表明在NR低浓度下,NR能嵌入至核酸双螺旋的碱基内部在G C处与核酸结合,而在较高浓度情况下,嵌入的NR分子与后来的在核酸双螺旋外部的NR分子相互作用发生聚集,从而堆积在DNA双螺旋的表面,同时使核酸的构象由B型转变为Z型。用光谱滴定的方法获得NR与CTDNA作用内部结合常数,分别为:Ka1=2 4×104mol·L-1·cm-1和Ka2=2 1×10-2mol·L-1·cm-1。     

C74(BN)2的UV和IR 光谱研究

Equilibrium geometries of 16 possible isomers for C74（BN）2 were studied by INDO series of methods, to indicate that the most stable three geometries are those where boron and nitrogen atoms substitute carbon atoms located at the same hexagon near the longest axis of C78 （C2v） to form B-N-B-N unit. Electronic spectra of C74（BN）2 were investigated with INDO/CIS method. The reason for the red shift of UV absorptions for C74（BN）2 compared with those of C78 （C2v） was discussed. IR spectra for 9,8,28,29-C74（BN）2 and 28,29,30,31-C74（BN）2 were calculated on the basis of AM1 geometries.     

Artificial red cells with crosslinked hemoglobin membranes

Artificial cells containing concentrated hemoglobin (Hb) solution were prepared by interfacial polymerization of Hb with glutaraldehyde (GA) in liquid membrane capsules (LMC). A solution containing 30% of Hb was emulsified in mineral oil as red cell-size microdroplets, and this emulsion was dispersed in an aqueous phase containing glutaraldehyde to form LMC. The LMC were semipermeable templates that held the microdroplets of Hb in suspension while GA diffused through the oil to the microdroplet surfaces. The GA crosslinked Hb at the surface of each microdroplet to form an artificial red-cell membrane encapsulating Hb solution. A water-soluble surfactant was used to eject the cells from the LMC and suspend them in saline. Several surfactants were evaluated. Cell size was controlled by agitation speed during preparation of the original emulsion. Cells of 2.52 = ±1.69 μm were prepared. The encapsulated Hb retained capacity to bind and release O₂. The cells had aP ₅₀ of 8.9 torr (1200 Pa) and a capacity of 0.55 cc O₂/g of total Hb, indicating that the crosslinked portion of the Hb did not contribute to O₂ transport.     

Anaerobic reduction of a sulfonated azo dye, Congo Red, by sulfate-reducing bacteria

The capacity for anaerobic decolorization of a sulfonated azo dye, Congo Red, by a strain of a sulfate-reducing bacterium was evaluated. After optimizing the growth rate of the bacteria on a simple carbon source and terminal electron acceptor pair, lactate and sulfate, respectively, the effect of the dye concentration on their growth rate was analyzed. The decolorization rate was affected by the dye concentration in the growth medium. The azo-bond cleavage mechanism of reductive decolorization with the formation of benzidine was consistent with the results, as this metabolite was identified by high-performance liquid chromatography. Several fractions of the culture medium, including lysed cell extracts, were examined for the capacity to reduce the azo dye. This reduction capacity was found in the culture medium in which the cells had previously grown. The results showed that the mechanism of reductive decolorization of this sulfonated azo dye was extracellular and nonenzymatic, consistent with the production of sulfide anion by the microorganisms while growing on lactate and sulfate. The sulfide anions were the cause of the reduction leading to the disappearance of color in the medium. To increase the rate of decolorization, the presence of ferrous ion was also necessary together with the lactate and sulfate substrates.

在pH4.3的B-R缓冲体系中,用微相吸附-光谱修正技术[1]研究了茜素红(ARS)与牛血清白蛋白(BSA)、人血清白蛋白(HSA)的结合反应。其吸附结合常数分别为:KBSA-ARS=3.950×104,KHSA-ARS=4.377×104。染料与蛋白的最大结合数分别为NARS∶NBSA=9∶1,NARS∶NHSA=7∶1。经光谱修正技术计算结合产物的实际摩尔吸光系数分别为εBSA-ARS(537nm)=2.517×104L.mol-1.cm-1,εHSA-ARS(519nm)=2.051×104L.mol-1.cm-1,检出限BSA为19mg/L,HSA为23mg/L。经探讨该结合反应机理符合Langmuir吸附聚集反应方程。     

牛血清白蛋白与两种金属配合物的作用研究

The interaction of Methylthymol Blue(MTB)-Zinc(Ⅱ) compound and Alizarin Red S(ARS)-Aluminum(Ⅲ) compound with Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated by UV-Vis spectrophotometric method in acidic buffer solution. MTB-Zn(Ⅱ)-BSA was a blue color compound, which possesses maximum absorption at 613 nm with 172 nm, 174 nm and 18 nm of red shift compared to the MTB, MTB-BSA and MTB-Zn(Ⅱ) complexes respectively. Dual wavelength substantial amount ratio method, balance dialysis substantial amount ratio method and unity wavelength substantial amount ratio method were compared. The following results were obtained: the apparent molar absorptivity of MTB-Zn(Ⅱ) with BSA was ε=2.20×10⁴ L·mol^-1·cm^-1. Conditional proportion were defined, n_MTB∶n_Zn(Ⅱ)∶n_BSA=2∶2∶1; condition combination constant, K=2.07×1010. Combination proportion were defined, n_ARS∶n_Al(Ⅲ)∶n_BSA=6∶4∶1. Condition equilibrium constant of reaction of ARS-Al(Ⅲ) with BSA was K=8.80×10⁸. The apparent molar absorptivity of ε=2.65×10⁴ L·mol^-1·cm^-1. It is suggested that combination between BSA and MTB-Zn(Ⅲ) is due to coordination force. That combination between BSA and ARS-Al(Ⅲ) is due to the coordination bond and electrostatic force.     

Aortic elastin fluorescence afterin vivo labeling with Congo red

Congo red (CR) is an azo dye which not only preferentially binds to elastin, an extracellular matrix protein found in the media of arterial vessel walls, but also fluoresces when it binds to this protein. Protein solubilization data following laser irradiation of elastin:CR suspensions determined that the amount of elastin solubilized by laser irradiation increased with the increase in CR. The saturation point of CR to elastin was attained when 400 g CR was added to 20 mg elastin suspension. When 20 ml of a 5% CR solution in 5% dextrose was administered intravenously, the CR was absorbed in levels sufficient to produce fluorescence of the main arteries in rabbits. Layers of tissue both in the media of the vessels and at the endothelial/intimal interface were clearly differentiated. Therefore, the elastin:CR complex appears to be an ideal system in which the elastin fluorescence could aid in distinguishing between normal and diseased tissue in certain pathological conditions, such as atherosclerosis and some types of breast tumors.
