Surface Roughness Characterization of Poly(methylmethacrylate) Films with Immobilized Eu(III) β-Diketonates by Fractal Analysis

The structural complexity of the 3-D surface of poly(methylmethacrylate) films with immobilized europium β-diketonates was studied by atomic force microscopy and fractal analysis. Fractal analysis of surface roughness revealed that the 3-D surface has fractal geometry at the nanometer scale. Poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) as immobilization matrix is dense and uniform, and a tendency for formation of chain structures was observed. Fractal analysis can quantify key elements of 3-D surface roughness such as the fractal dimensions D _f determined by the morphological envelopes method of the Eu(DBM)₃ and Eu(DBM)₃ · dpp nanostructures, which are not taken into account by traditional surface statistical parameters.     

Polydimethylsiloxane: A General Matrix for High‐Performance Chromatographic NMR Spectroscopy

The detection and structural characterization of the components of a mixture is a challenging task. Therefore, the development of a facile and general method that enables both the separation and the structural characterization of the components is desired. Diffusion‐ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY) with the aid of a matrix is a promising tool for this purpose. However, because the currently existing matrices only separate limited components, the application of the DOSY technique is restricted. Herein we introduce a new versatile matrix, poly(dimethylsiloxane), which can fully separate many mixtures of different structural types by liquid‐state NMR spectroscopy. With poly(dimethylsiloxane), liquid‐state chromatographic NMR spectroscopy could become a general approach for the structural elucidation of mixtures of compounds.     

Phospholipid Polymer Hydrogel Matrices with Dually Immobilized Cytokines for Accelerating Secretion of the Extracellular Matrix by Encapsulated Cells

Construction of 3D tissues by various types of cells with specific characteristics is an important and fundamental technology in tissue reconstruction medicine and animal‐free diagnosis system. To do so, an excellent extracellular matrix (ECM) is needed for encapsulation of cells and maintaining cell activity. Spontaneously forming hydrogel matrix is used by complexation between two water‐soluble polymers, 2‐methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine polymer bearing phenylboronic acid groups and poly(vinyl alcohol). Two cytokines for cell proliferation are immobilized in the hydrogel matrix to control the activities of the encapsulated cells. The cytokine‐immobilized hydrogel matrix can encapsulate both L929 fibroblasts and normal human dermal fibroblasts under mild condition. The physical properties of the hydrogel matrix can follow the proliferation process of the encapsulated cells. The encapsulated cells secrete ECM in the polymer hydrogel networks upon 3D culturing for 7 days. Consequently, the tissue‐mimicking ECM hybrid hydrogels are fabricated successfully.

快速、高效而灵敏的分离技术对于DNA的分析是至关重要的。使用无胶筛分介质的毛细管电泳是最重要的DNA分离技术之一,通常使用无交联的高分子溶液作为无胶筛分介质。本文在介绍高分子溶液理论的基础上,综述了DNA在毛细管电泳无胶筛分介质（缠结溶液和稀溶液）中的分离机理,主要包括Ogston筛分模型、各种修正的爬行模型、瞬态缠结偶合机理及其改进机理等。     

一种可能的简并谱NNS分布

To expose the statistical properties of the degenerated spectrum, with the aid of the random matrix theory,a possible form of the NNS distribution function of the degenerate spectrum was proposed by providing a solution in terms of the same-degeneracy case. The results indicate that the target spectrum is transformed into two sub-spectra: a random one and a regular one, and that the repulsion level of the regular spectrum is also decreased.     

Important Requirements for the Selection of Internal Standards during the Development of Desorption/Ionization Assays for Drug Quantification in Biological Matrices—A Practical Example

Desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (DI-MS) approaches allow for the rapid quantification of drugs in biological matrices using assays that can be validated according to regulatory guidelines. However, specific adaptations must be applied to create reliable quantification methods, depending on the approach and instrumentation used. In the present article, we demonstrate the importance of the molecular weight, the fragmentation pattern, and the purity of the internal standard for the development of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)-ion mobility (IM)-tandem MS and MS/MS methods. We present preliminary results of method development for the quantification of selinexor in microdialysis fluids with a stable isotopically labeled internal standard. In addition, we discuss the selection of internal standards for MALDI-MS assays using different instrumentations.     

LIBS中药材石斛等级识别研究

石斛是一种常用的中药材,经常使用新鲜的或干燥的茎条入药,有益胃生津、滋阴清热的效果。近年来,药理学研究探索出石斛具有抗白内障、抗氧化、抗肿瘤、提高免疫力的作用,其在许多病例中疗效显著,引起了国内外学者的关注,然而不同时间采集的石斛中氨基酸、微量元素等含量各不同,其对应药用价值,价格也不同,因此石斛价格等级分辨的研究具有重要意义。为快速鉴别不同价格、不同药效的石斛,研究了随机森林分类模型结合激光诱导击穿光谱技术(LIBS)对石斛价格等级进行分析建模。选取5个等级的石斛样品进行建模,为了对样品进行精确稳定分析,所有石斛样品均通过粉碎压片减小实验误差。采用1 064 nm波长的Nd∶YAG脉冲激光器作为激发光源,设置激光脉冲能量50 mJ,探测延时1μs,采集五个等级石斛样本的光谱数据,每个等级的样本采集40组光谱,共200组数据,并采用归一化处理,使所有的光谱数据转换到-1~1之间。采用归一化处理后的光谱数据进行主成分分析,通过主成分分析获得前7个主成分的得分矩阵,其累计解释95.24%的光谱信息。将选取的7个主成分作为输入,建立波段为220~880 nm的随机森林鉴别模型。并将石斛样本编号打乱,任意选取50%的光谱数据作为训练集,剩下50%的光谱数据作为测试集,默认决策树个数ntree为500,分裂属性集中属性个数mtry为5,建立模型对不同等级的石斛进行分类。等级一、二、三、四、五的识别率分别为95.45%, 100%, 78.26%, 94.12%和85%,平均识别率为90.57%。为提高识别率,研究了不同的ntree和mtry对分类模型的影响,利用袋外数据误差率估计对随机森林的两个参数进行了优化。选择ntree为300,mtry为1,等级一、二、三、四、五的识别率分别为100%, 100%, 92.31%, 100%和90%,平均识别率为96.46%,识别率提高了5.89%。综上所述,采用LIBS技术结合优化后的随机森林模型鉴别石斛等级具有一定的可行性,为未来快速鉴定不同价格的石斛等级分类提供了可行性的判别系统。
