A new type of inorganic biosensor is introduced. The sensor comprises glucose oxidase enzymes encapsulated in a sol-gel-derived
Prussian blue-silicate hybrid network. Glucose is detected by the biocatalytic reduction of oxygen followed by catalytic reduction
of hydrogen peroxide by the Prusian blue catalyst. The sol-gel silicate entails a rigid encapsulating matrix, the Prussian
blue provides chemical catalysis and charge mediation from the reduction site to the supporting electrode, and the enzyme
is responsible for the biocatalysis. The feasibility of a dual optical/electrochemical mode of analysis is also demonstrated. 相似文献

We demonstrate that the selectivity of microchip electrophoresis separations is greatly improved by the presence of organically modified silica (Ormosil) sols in the run buffer. A negatively-charged N-(trimethoxysilylpropyl)ethylenediamine triacetic-acid (TETT)-based sol is used for improving the selectivity between nitroaromatic explosives and a methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMOS)-based sol is employed for enhancing the microchip separation of environmental pollutants, aminophenols. These sols are added to the run buffer and act as pseudostationary phases. Their presence in the run buffer changes the apparent mobility of studied solutes, and leads to a higher resolution. The observed mobilities changes reflect the interactions between the Ormosil sols and the solutes. Relevant experimental variables have been characterized and optimized. The diverse chemistry of Ormosil sols should be extremely useful for tailoring the selectivity of a wide range of electrophoresis microchip separations. 相似文献

A new class of sol-gel-derived photocatalytic materials has been synthesized and used in solar-assisted photodegradation studies. The materials are comprised of a homogeneous dispersion of commercial TiO2 powder into silica and organically modified silicate (Ormosil) hosts. The efficiency of the photocatalytic properties of these TiO2-containing materials was determined by their relative performance in the solar photodecomposition of aqueous rhodamine B. The improved adsorption properties of the modified materials compared to commercial TiO2 increase the photodecomposition rate and the buoyancy properties, although excess hydrophobicity decreases the wetted section of the catalyst and its photocatalytic performance. These materials can be used as floatable catalysts for solar-assisted water purification. 相似文献

The piperidine nitroxide tempamine (TMN) is a cell-permeable, stable radical having antioxidant, anticancer, and proapoptotic and/or pronecrotic activities, as was demonstrated by us in cell cultures. We also demonstrated synergism between TMN and doxorubicin in doxorubicin-sensitive and doxorubicin-resistant cell lines. Treatment of the C26 mouse colon carcinoma model in vivo also demonstrated synergism between TMN and doxorubicin in sterically stabilized liposomes (SSLs) containing TMN (SSL-TMN) and those containing doxorubicin. The above effects of TMN and SSL-TMN motivated us to develop and optimize the SSL-TMN formulation so that it will be able to reach the disease site with a sufficiently high TMN level and a release rate needed to achieve a therapeutic effect. Because TMN is an amphipathic weak base, it was remote loaded by an intraliposome high/extraliposome low transmembrane ammonium sulfate gradient. The kinetics and level of TMN loading were monitored by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR); the latter also indicates TMN precipitation in the intraliposomal aqueous phase. The regeneration of the original CV and EPR signals by the ionophore nigericin indicates that TMN remained fully intact during loading and release. The cardinal role of the transmembrane ammonium ion gradient in the loading process was proven by the use of the selective ionophores nonactin (for NH4+) and nigericin (for H+). The anion of the ammonium salts affects loading stability and the rate of TMN release, both mediated through the TMN state of aggregation in the intraliposomal aqueous phase. The greater the TMN salt precipitation, the slower the TMN release rate. This was supported by measurement of osmolality, which is inversely related to TMN salt precipitate. Precipitation is in the order SO4(-2)>Cl-1>glucuronate-1. Liposome lipid composition, magnitude of the transmembrane ammonium ion gradient, and type of anion of the ammonium salt determine the amount of TMN loaded and its release rate. 相似文献

Nano-sized magnetite impregnated charcoal granular activated carbon (nFe-GAC) was utilized for the removal of phosphate from
aqueous solutions using a fixed bed column. The dynamic of the phosphate adsorption was analyzed using a new approach to the
Thomas model based on a two-step differential sorption rate process. The initial adsorption was found to be external mass
transfer controlled, while intra-particle diffusion was the predominant mechanism in the latter stage. Consequently, two kinetic
coefficients were calculated for each breakthrough curve resulting in an excellent model prediction. By implementing this
approach a transition point, at which diffusion becomes the predominant adsorption mechanism, can be accurately determined.
The effect of varying parameters, such as feed flow rates, feed pH, initial phosphate concentrations and adsorbent bed height
were examined and described using the modified Thomas model. Reaction rates increased with augmentation of the flow rates
from 1 to 40 mL/min while the adsorption capacity and transition point decreased. Similar transition points were obtained
for initial phosphate concentrations between 10 and 100 mg/L. The unique characteristics of the nFe-GAC were evident as it
exhibited very high phosphate adsorption capacity, at a wide range of pH values (4–9) with negligible effect of competing
ions and short critical bed depth. 相似文献

The unique properties of Langmuir film formation were utilized in assembling a thin skin of an asymmetric membrane. An octadecyltrimethoxysilane (ODTMS) Langmuir monolayer was formed at the air–water interface and served as the substrate for growing a bulky sol–gel polymer in situ. The latter was based on the electrochemical deposition of tetramethoxysilane dissolved in the water subphase by means of horizontal touch electrochemistry. The resultant asymmetric layer that consisted of a thin hydrophobic ODTMS Langmuir film connected to a bulk hydrophilic sol–gel network was studied in situ and ex situ by using various techniques, such as cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and goniometry. We found that a porous hydrophilic film grew on top of a hydrophobic layer as was evident from TEM, contact angle, and EIS analyses. The film thickness and film permeability could be controlled by changing the deposition conditions such as the potential window applied and its duration. Hence, this method offers an alternative approach for assembling asymmetric films for various applications 相似文献

An improved system of conductance probes is used to identify the flow patterns in two phase horizontal, near horizontal and upward flows. The results show that this system is very well suited to distinguish among flow patterns consistent with visual observations. 相似文献

A new family of copper ligand-exchange selectors, L- or D-β-amino alcohols, is employed for the chiral separation of D,L-dansyl-amino acids, unmodified amino acid racemates, phenylalanine and tryptophan, and β-blocker L,D-propranolol by SDS-micellar electrokinetic chromatography and by electrophoretic chromatography in a low molecular weight organogel (LMOG)-filled capillary. The LMOG comprised a self-assembled fibrillar gel of trans-(1S,2S)-1,2-bis-(dodecylamido) cyclohexane in methanol. The di-L-valinol-copper complex exhibited the best performance on LMOG-CE compared with all other β-amino alcohol-copper selectors. The dependence of chiral resolution on the pH*, the ratio between the copper and the L-valinol ligand and the concentration of added selector complex in the run buffer were investigated revealing a marked difference between the activity of the copper-valinol and the previously studied copper-valine selector. The optimal separation conditions were achieved using a 2:1 valinol/copper ratio, in accordance with the 2:1 structure of the complex, which was proven by single crystal and powder X-ray diffractions and by elemental analysis. Unlike the copper-valine selectors that could be used only under acidic conditions (pH* 3.5), the copper-valinol selectors could be used under near-neutral conditions and even at pH* 9.1. A comparison between SDS-micellar electrokinetic chromatography and LMOG-CE under otherwise identical conditions revealed a significant superior separation on the LMOG-filled capillaries. 相似文献

Hydrogen peroxide is one of the most versatile oxidation reagents, still it has not fully been exploited by synthetic chemists since anhydrous (let alone pure) hydrogen peroxide requires hazardous preparation protocols. We have recently reported on the crystallization of serine and other amino acid perhydrates, thus paving the way for a new method for laboratory-scale production of anhydrous hydrogen peroxide solutions. Serine is insoluble in most organic solvents (e.g., methanol, ethyl acetate, and methyl acetate) that readily dissolve hydrogen peroxide. Moreover, since the adduct of hydrogen peroxide and serine is unstable in these organic solvents, crystalline serine perhydrate readily decomposes to give anhydrous solutions of hydrogen peroxide and crystalline precipitate of the amino acid. This procedure can then yield an anhydrous hydrogen peroxide solution in a single step. Moreover, filtration of the amino acid, and room temperature evaporation of the volatile solvent (e.g., methyl acetate), yields over 99% hydrogen peroxide. 相似文献
