TiO2-双亲共聚物复合纳米粒子的合成与紫外光敏特性

用偶联剂乙烯基三乙氧基硅烷改性纳米粒子TiO₂, 应用超声技术将TiO₂ 纳米粒子分散在甲醇介质中, 然后用苯乙烯(ST)原位聚合包封, 再用丙烯酰胺或乙烯基吡咯烷酮(VP)共聚, 两步原位分散聚合得到了有机聚合物为壳、TiO₂为核的有机/无机复合粒子. 用红外光谱、紫外-可见光谱、透射电子显微镜等检测手段进行表征. 结果显示: 由于双亲共聚物对TiO₂纳米粒子的敏化作用, 紫外-可见光谱图上两种纳米复合粒子的最大吸收峰均有明显红移, 并且吸收光谱的范围扩大了, 其中尤以TiO₂/(PST-co-PVP)为甚. 意味着光敏化活性的提高, 特别是在可见光谱的范围内. 这种情形对宽带隙半导体材料如TiO₂纳米粒子的光催化特性是有利的, 表明这类材料的应用空间得到了拓展.     

鞘磷脂和神经节苷脂对磷脂酰乙醇胺混合脂超分子体系液晶态立方相Im3m和Pn3m结构影响的研究

用磷脂酰乙醇胺(DEPE)、鞘磷脂(Sphingomyeline, Sph)、神经节苷脂(Gm1)和胆固醇(Chol)模拟了生物膜超分子体系液晶态结构, 通过用小角X射线衍射(SAXD)对混合脂体系液晶态结构进行了研究, 鉴定出了两种立方相: 即Im3m(Q²²⁹)和Pn3m(Q²²⁴)结构. 实验发现, 鞘磷脂的含量对DEPE膜的结构有一定的影响, 随着鞘磷脂浓度的增加, 混合脂体系的液晶态结构发生了由Im3m(Q²²⁹)到Pn3m(Q²²⁴)的变化. 神经节苷脂(Gm1)的含量对混合脂体系的液晶态结构也有一定的影响, 当神经节苷脂(Gm1)含量达到某一临界值时, 混合脂体系的液晶态结构发生了从Im3m(Q²²⁹)到Pn3m(Q²²⁴) 的变化. 当DEPE-Shp-Gm1超分子聚集体中含有胆固醇时, 胆固醇的极性头部(—OH)与磷脂酰乙醇胺(DEPE)、鞘磷脂(Shp)、神经节苷脂(Gm1)的极性头部通过氢键相互作用形成液晶态立方相Im3m(Q²²⁹)结构, 再通过疏水/亲水相互作用形成稳定的Pn3m (Q²²⁴)结构.

Modeling of nucleic acid adsorption on 3D prisms in microchannels

Understanding nucleic acid adsorption in microchannels is critical to improve the efficiency of purifying and extracting nucleic acid (NA) from sample solutions by microfluidic technologies. Using a microchannel with 3D prismatic silica elements on the wall can dramatically increase the surface area-to-volume ratio, and hence facilitate the nucleic acid adsorption on the wall. In this study a theoretical model for modeling adsorption in a microchannel with a designed 3D surface structure was developed, and five dimensionless numbers were found to be the key parameters in the adsorption process. Extensive numerical simulations were conducted. Two flow modes, the electroosmotic flow (EOF) and pressure-driven flow (PDF), were investigated for their effect on the adsorption. It was found that the EOF is more desirable than PDF. The 3D prismatic elements can increases the NA molecule adsorption not only by providing more surface areas, but also by the induced pressure resisting the central bulk electroosmotic flow. Finally, the effects of adsorption kinetic parameters (i.e., the kinetic association/dissociation constants, the diffusion coefficient, the total site density, the loading concentration, and the channel height), on the adsorption process were discussed in detail.     

Selenium speciation in foods: Preliminary results on potatoes

The present paper deals with the speciation of selenium in potatoes (enriched or not in selenium). The study was carried out by using differential pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry (DPCSV) for quantifying selenium. Results obtained provide evidence that the selenium content in the protein fraction is rather independent from the selenium added to the plants during their growth. On the contrary, the amount of Se in the non-protein fraction (water and starch) in Se-enriched sample is significantly higher than in non-enriched one, suggesting that it is the main selenium-storing site. In this fraction the Se(VI)/Se(IV) ratio seems independent from selenium application but it may be related to the redox conditions. The accumulation of selenium in the non-protein fraction is tentatively ascribed to the “Se–starch interaction” that should be able to modulate both the Se absorption into proteins and, possibly, its toxic effect for the plant itself.     

Analysis of sodium polycarboxylates in detergents by size exclusion chromatography

Summary This paper describes the quantitative analysis and preparative isolation of sodium polycarboxylates in detergents by means of gel permeation chromatography. An analytical monitoring method separates the polymers from other low molecular detergent ingredients within 10 minutes. There is no separation of the various molecular weight polycarboxylate macromolecules themselves. They elute from the column as a single narrow peak at the exclusion volume. A second preparative gel filtration method allows isolation of polycarboxylates in amounts necessary for further characterization. Appropriate sample pretreatments and possible interferences are discussed.     

A method for the determination of histamine in wine by HPLC with precolumn derivatization with phenylisothiocyanate

Summary A method for determining histamine in wine by precolumn derivatization with PITC (phenylisothiocyanate) with reversed-phase HPLC and UV detection is reported. Histamine can be determined together with the 24 amino acids within 40 min, or separately in a shorter time (less than 4 min) if a prior solid phase extraction clean-up is used.     

CLIMATIC CHANGE SINCE LITTLE ICE AGE RECORDED BY DUNDE ICE CAP

The climatic change since the Little Ice Age recorded in the Dunde Ice Cap is presentedin this paper. There have been three cold periods and three warm periods since 1400AD.Among them, the coldest one was in the 17th century. Many evidences verified the three coldand warm variations recorded in the Dundc Ice Cap. But it was found from the comparison between the Dunde Icc Cap climatic record and thewinter temperature record in Shanghai that there was a temporal dfference in climatic changebetween East China and West China. The general trend is that the cooling and warmingprocesses in West China were earlier than that in East China. In the Dunde Ice Cap, it isnow in an anomalous warm period, while it is not as warm as in Dunde Ice Cap recordaccording to the winter temperature in Shanghai. In addition to the possible cause of temporaldifference in climatic change between West China and East China, another possible cause isthat the greenhouse effect of CO_2 may already be recognizable in the Dunde Ice Cap a
