Multiwalled carbon nanotubes covalently functionalized with poly(N‐vinylcarbazole) via RAFT polymerization: Synthesis and nonliner optical properties

The poly(N‐vinylcarbazole)‐grafted MWNTs (MWNT‐PVK) hybrid materials were synthesized in the presence of S‐1‐Dodecyl‐S′‐(α, α′‐dimethyl‐α″‐acetic acid) trithiocarbonate (DDAT)‐covalently functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT‐DDAT) as reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) agent. Incorporation of the PVK moieties onto the MWNTs surface can considerably improve the solubility and processability of MWNTs. For all MWNT‐PVK hybrid materials, they are soluble in some common organic solvents such as toluene, THF, chloroform, DMF and others. In contrast to the UV/Vis spectrum of DDAT‐PVK, which was synthesized by use of DDAT as RAFT agent under the same synthetic condition, in the visible region, the absorption spectrum of MWNT‐PVK exhibited a typical electronic absorption characteristics of solubilized carbon nanotubes, in which the absorbance decreases gradually in the range of 350–600 nm. At the same level of linear transmission the MWNT‐PVK with 79.2% PVK moieties in the material structure possesses best optical limiting performance in comparison with the other MWNT‐PVK composites, MWNTs and C₆₀. The significant NLO responses manifest the MWNT‐PVK materials suitable candidate for viable optical limiting devices. Light scattering, originating from the thermal‐induced microplasmas and/or microbubbles, is responsible for the optical limiting. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Nanoelectrospray-based detection and sequencing of substoichiometric amounts of phosphopeptides in complex mixtures

A novel immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC)-based protocol was successfully used for sample preparation prior to nanoelectrospray-based sequencing of phosphopeptides. In a first step, phosphorylated peptides are detected in an unseparated peptide mixture using precursor ion scanning in the negative ion mode on a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer. Then the phosphorylated peptides are enriched by passing the sample over an IMAC column and sequenced in the positive ion mode. The IMAC-based enrichment allows the sequencing of phosphorylated peptides even if other, much more abundant, peptides are present at the same m/z value in the original mixture. Using this two-step approach, we are able to combine the simplicity, sensitivity and specificity of precursor ion scanning-based detection of phosphopeptides using the nanoelectrospray ion source with the ability to sequence phosphorylated peptides even if they are present in substoichiometric amounts.

Room-Temperature Near-Infrared Metastable Species Measured by Phase-Sensitive Lock-in and Fourier Transform Techniques

An ultrasensitive detecting system coupled with either a lock-in or Fourier transform technique has been used to detect near-infrared (1000-2500 nm) metastable species in room temperature solutions. These species include O₂(¹Δ_g), O₂(¹σ⁺_g), the solvent induced satellite peak of molecular singlet oxygen (¹Δ_g) emission, and the triplet state of bis(triisobutylsiloxy)silicon-2,-3-naphthalocyanine (SilNC). Using the O₂(¹Δ_g) emission in benzene as a standard, the quantum yield and radiative decay rate of SiINC triplet state have been determined. Depending on types of spectral acquisition, special techniques such as phase-distinguishing and step scan capabilities were utilized. Their advantages and disadvantages are discussed.     

Application of Elimination Voltammetry to the Resolution of Adenine and Cytosine Signals in Oligonucleotides. I. Homo‐oligodeoxynucleotides dA9 and dC9

Elimination voltammetry with linear scan (EVLS) has been applied to the resolution of reduction signals of adenine and cytosine in short synthetic homo‐oligodeoxynucleotides (dA₉ and dC₉). In comparison with the common electrochemical methods (linear sweep, differential pulse, and square‐wave voltammetry) EVLS enables one to resolve the overlapped signals by using the function which eliminates the charging and kinetic currents (I_c, I_k) and conserves the diffusion current (I_d). For the adsorbed electroactive substance, this elimination function gives a good readable peak‐counterpeak which has successfully been utilized to the analysis of overlapped reduction signals of adenine and cytosine on hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The height and potential of signals studied were affected by the dC₉/dA₉ ratio, the time of accumulation, the stirring speed during the adsorption, and pH. Our results showed that EVLS in connection with the adsorption procedure is a useful tool for qualitative and quantitative studies of short oligonucleotides.

In addition, the proposed sensor was successfully applied in determination of CF in drug sample.
