Spectrophotometric Study of Luminol in Dimethyl Sulfoxide–Potassium Hydroxide

The spectrophotometric study of luminol (LH₂) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), DMSO-water solutions, and alkaline DMSO and DMSO-water solutions has been done, focusing on the effect of the KOH additon on LH₂ absorption and fluorescence properties. The absorption spectra indicate an acid-base equilibrium, and the luminol dianion (L^2–) formation at 3 × 10^–4 – 2.4 × 10^–3 M KOH. The decrease of the fluorescence intensity and the variation of the excitation spectra of LH₂-DMSO-KOH solutions with KOH concentration have been similarly explained. The acid-base process is reversible. The addition of HCl to the solution with 3.0 × 10^–3 M KOH leads to an increase of the fluorescence intensity to its highest value, observed in pure DMSO. The addition of HCl to the LH₂-DMSO solution leads to the decrease of the fluorescence intensity as a result of the LH⁺ ₃ cation formation. In LH₂-DMSO-water, the fluorescence band is shifted from 405 nm to 424 nm and increased in the intensity. In the presence of KOH (in LH₂-DMSO-water-KOH solution) a new band appears, with the maximum at 485 nm and the band at 405 nm decreased. The changes in fluorescence lifetimes also evidence the different chemical species formed.     

Inner bounds for the spectrum of quasinormal operators

A linear operator in a separable Hilbert space is called a quasinormal one if it is a sum of a normal operator and a compact one. In the paper, bounds for the spectrum of quasinormal operators are established. In addition, the lower estimate for the spectral radius is derived. Under some restrictions, that estimate improves the well-known results. Applications to integral operators and matrices are discussed. Our results are new even in the finite-dimensional case.

Ar-Broadening of isotropic Raman lines in the ν2 band of acetylene

Using a high resolution Raman spectrometer, we have measured Ar-broadening coefficients in the ν₂Q branch of C₂H₂ for 22 lines at 295 K, 20 lines at 174 K, and 16 lines at 134 K. These lines with J values ranging from 1 to 23 are located in the spectral range 1970.9-1974.3 cm⁻¹. The collisional widths are obtained by fitting each spectral line with a Rautian profile. The resulting broadening coefficients are compared with theoretical values arising from close coupling and coupled states calculations. A satisfactory agreement is obtained at room as well as at low temperatures, especially for odd J lines. By comparing broadening coefficients at 295, 174, and 134 K from a simple power law, the temperature dependence of these broadenings has been determined both experimentally, and theoretically.     

Eigenvalue Spectrum of a Dirac Particle in Static and Spherical Complex Potential

It has been observed that a quantum theory need not be Hermitian to have a real spectrum. We study the non-Hermitian relativistic quantum theories for many complex potentials, and obtain the real relativistic energy eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions of a Dirac-charged particle in complex statically and spherically symmetric potentials. Complex Dirac–Eckart, complex Dirac–Rosen–Morse II, complex Dirac–Scarf and complex Dirac–Poschl–Teller potential are investigated.

Static light scattering,ultraviolet–visible,and fluorescence spectroscopy from fluorescent methyl methacrylate/benzazole dye copolymers displaying an intramolecular proton‐transfer mechanism in the electronically excited state

The solution behavior of new copolymers of methyl methacrylate and benzazole dyes emitting fluorescence because of an intramolecular proton‐transfer mechanism in the electronically excited state has been investigated by static light scattering, fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible, and gel permeation chromatography. In the dilute regime, with tetrahydrofuran (THF) and chloroform as solvents, the copolymers behave as typical polydisperse linear chains in good solvents. The analysis of the osmotic modulus for concentrated solutions in THF (c ≥ 60 g L^?1) indicates the existence of an interchain association mechanism. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Intrinsic Fluorescence of Actin

In this work actin is used to illustrate connection of protein fluorescence characteristics with its structure. On one hand, it has been demonstrated what kind of information about the contribution of each tryptophan residues to the bulk fluorescence spectrum can be obtained from the special analysis of protein three-dimensional structure. On the other hand, potentials of intrinsic fluorescence for elucidation of proteins structure, dynamics and processes of folding-unfolding are shown. In particular, using this method a new essentially unfolded kinetic intermediate state of actin was detected and characterized, and the place of inactivated actin and its kinetic predecessor in the process of folding-unfolding was determined. It has been revealed that inactivated actin is not intermediate state between the native and completely unfolded states, as it has been accepted before, but a result of protein misfolding. On the basis of the obtained data a new model of actin folding-unfolding pathway has been proposed.
