Electrochemical grafting by reduction of 4-aminoethylbenzenediazonium salt: Application to the immobilization of (bio)molecules

We propose in this study a simple and rapid way to produce stable amino-derivatized conductive surfaces for the subsequent immobilization of (bio)molecules. This was achieved through the use of (4-aminoethyl)benzenediazonium salt (AEBD), which was immobilized on glassy carbon and gold electrodes by its electrochemical reduction. The presence of terminal grafted amino functions was evidenced with XPS by analyzing N1s core level. Besides this conventional surface characterisation, an electrochemical strategy is proposed here to evidence the presence of immobilized amines, in which the chemical reactivity of amines towards 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) is used. Surface-bound TNBS served as an electrochemical marker and was detected by cyclic voltammetry. Additionally, pre-modified gold electrodes with amino functions can be derivatized with biomolecules such as glutathione (GSH). Glutathione attachment was evidenced by studying the electrochemical behaviour of ferri/ferrocyanide redox before and after its immobilization. The functionalized electrodes were then used for the detection of copper ions in neutral aqueous solutions.     

水热改性对NiMo/γ-Al2O3加氢脱氮催化剂结构及性能的影响

The influence of hydrothermal modification on the structure and hydrodenitrogenation (HDN) activity of NiMo/γ-Al₂O₃catalyst was studied in the range 140～180 ℃. The experimental results indicated that the hydrodenitrogenation reaction rate of pyridine was accelerated using the NiMo/γ-Al₂O₃catalyst synthesized via hydrothermal route due to the change of the structure, the increase of the amount of Mo and Ni and the rise of the specific surface area. The change of the structure of catalysts was enhanced at higher hydrothermal temperature, producing NiMo/γ-Al₂O₃catalyst with better HDN activity.     

Chemical modification of polymer surfaces: a review

The main approaches that have been taken to chemically modify polymer surfaces are introduced and reviewed. These are wet chemical oxidation, plasma treatment, classical organic chemistry, and attachment of polymer chains. The extent to which each of these approaches can produce the specific modifications desired is discussed, and any unwanted effects that commonly occur are cited. Finally, the need for using several methods of surface analysis in concert to obtain adequate surface characterization is described.

Site-specific modification of the 5"-terminal fragment of PGY1/MDR1 gene mRNA by reactive conjugates of antisense oligonucleotides

The site-specific modification of the 5"-terminal fragment of PGY1/MDR1 mRNA by oligodeoxyribonucleotide conjugates bearing residues of bleomycin A₅ (Blm), cobalt(ii) tetracarboxyphthalocyanine (Phcn), 4-[N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-methylamino]benzylamine (RCl), or perfluoroarylazide (Az) was studied. Conjugates of oligonucleotides complementary to the RNA sequences 123—138 and 155—166 selectively modify RNA in the vicinity of these regions. The highest efficacy (up to 50%) was achieved in reactions with alkylating and perfluoroarylazide conjugates of oligonucleotides. Conjugates of perfluoroarylazide with 2"-O-modified oligonucleotides are much more efficient than analogous conjugates with oligodeoxyribonucleotides (extents of RNA modification are 40—50% and 20%, respectively).
