Modified Stern-Volmer equation is obeyed by bovine serum albumin (BSA)-iodide system showing selective quenching of tryptophanyl
fluorescence of BSA. The fraction of accessible protein fluorescence is 0.56 and the effective Stern-Volmer constant is 290
M-1 at pH 7.4 in 0.005 M phosphate buffer at 25°C. Collisional quenching is operative both in the BSA -I−1 system and the model system, tryptophan-I−1. It is supported by the observed relationship between the ratio of quenching rate constants (k
q
) and diffusion coefficients and alsok
q
with bulk viscosity. 相似文献

Biodegradation occurs in the diesel/water interface in petroleum product pipelines. The microbial contamination can result in inhibitor/fuel degradation, leading to unacceptable levels of turbidity, filter plugging, storage tank corrosion and stored product souring. Therefore, selection of the biocide/inhibitor plays an important role in the transportation of petroleum products through pipelines. Three biocides (cationic and nonionic) were employed to study the biodegradation in a diesel‐water interface. The biocidal efficiency against degradation of diesel was examined by employing Fourier‐transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) techniques. Bronopol (2‐bromo‐2‐nitro‐propane‐1, 3‐diol) was found to have higher bactericidal efficiency than N‐cetyl‐N,N, N‐trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and cetyl pyridinum bromide (CPB). But the cationic biocides (CTAB and CPB) showed good biocidal efficiency at the interface. The data are explained in terms of a model that postulates the formation of a ‘micelle’ at the diesel‐water interface. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The synthesis, spectral and photoelectrochemical studies of mixed ligand complexes of [Ru(dcbpy)2(LL)]Cl2, where LL=2,4-(1,3-N,N′-dimethyl)pteridinedione (DMP), 6,7-dimethyl-2,4-(1,3-N,N′-dimethyl)pteridinedione (MDMP), 6,7-diphenyl-2,4-(1,3-N,N′-dimethyl)pteridinedione (PhDMP), dibenzo[h,j]-(1,3-N,N′-dimethyl)isoalloxazine (BIAlo), 6,7-bis(pyrid-2-yl)-2,4-(1,3-N,N′-dimethyl) pteridinedione (PyDMP) were carried out. These complexes were attached to sol–gel processed TiO2 electrodes and the photocells fabricated were illuminated with polychromatic radiation in the presence of I2/I3− as redox electrolyte. The incident photon to current conversion efficiency determined was found to be 20–48%. 相似文献

N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) is an aromatic amine that undergoes oxidation by various oxidizing agents such as Ce4+, MnO−4, Cr2O2−7; HSO−5, S2O−8, H2O2, Cl2, Br2 and I2, thereby serving as a reducing substrate. One-electron oxidation of TMB results in a radical cation (TMB˙+), and on further oxidation leads to the product dication (TMB++) were monitored by stopped-flow spectrophotometer at the absorption wavelength of TMB˙+(λmax; 460 nm). ESR data was also provided to confirm the formation of radical cation. The rates of both the formation and decay
of TMB˙+ have been followed by a total second-order kinetics, a first-order dependence each on [TMB] (or) [TMB˙+] and [oxidant]. The kinetic and transition state parameters have been evaluated for the effects of pH and temperature on
the formation and decay of TMB˙+ and discussed with suitable reaction mechanisms. Also, the rate constants for the reactions of the radical cation with various
reducing agents such as sulfite (SO2−3), thiosulfate (S2O2−3), dithionite (S2O2−4) and disulfite (S2O2−5) and ascorbic acid (vitamin C, AH2 were determined. Besides these, this article also explains how TMB acts as a better electron relay than unsubstituted benzidine,
even though both of them undergo one-electron oxidation and are used in the chemical routes to solar energy conversions. The
observed rate constants for electron transfer were correlated theoretically using Marcus theory. The observed and calculated
rate constants have good correlation. 相似文献

The interaction of 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulphonate (ANS) with cross-linked poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (CPVP) was studied
by the adsorption technique at different temperatures and at two different pH values. Analysis by the Scatchard method and
the study made in the presence of urea showed that the iceberg structure of water affects the sorption of ANS to CPVP, leading
to cooperativity. The observed Giles sorption isotherms at both the pH values were of theL-type which indicated the interaction of ANS in flat configuration with the binding site in CPVP. The sorption of ANS to CPVP
was enhanced considerably at acidic pH due to some structural factors which also resulted in multilayer sorption at this pH.
Comparison of binding of ANS to CPVP and to linear poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) demonstrated the greater contribution of hydrophobic
interaction in CPVP than in the linear polymer. 相似文献

Photocatalytic action of the commercial TiO2 was the subject of study on the destruction of the microbes within the biofilms. The TiO2 powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) for identifying its type and the particle size was determined. The biofilm was allowed to form over TiO2 coatings over glass slides irradiated with polychromatic light for different time durations and distances. It indicates that a five-fold decrease in bacterial count due to the formation of H2O2 at TiO2/biofilm interface. The formation of H2O2 at the TiO2/biofilm interface is estimated and it does not destroy the entire bacterial population within the biofilm. Bacterial killing effect is supported by FT-IR analysis. 相似文献

The effect of water-soluble corrosion inhibitor on the growth of bacteria and its corrosion inhibition efficiency were investigated. Corrosion inhibition efficiency was studied by rotating cage test and flow loop techniques. The nature of biodegradation of corrosion inhibitor was also analyzed by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and Gas chromatography and mass spectrometer (GC–MS). The bacterial isolates (Serratia marcescens ACE2, Bacillus cereus ACE4) have the capacity to degrade the aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon present in the corrosion inhibitor. The degraded products of corrosion inhibitor and bacterial activity determine the electrochemical behaviour of API 5LX steel. The influence of bacterial activity on degradation of corrosion inhibitor and its influence on corrosion of API 5LX have been evaluated by employing weight loss techniques and electrochemical studies. The main finding of this paper is that the water-soluble corrosion inhibitor is consumed by the microbial action, which contributes to the decrease in inhibitor efficiency. The present study also emphasis the importance of evaluation of water-soluble corrosion inhibitor in stagnant model (flow loop test) and discusses the demerits of the water-soluble corrosion inhibitors in petroleum product pipeline. 相似文献

A kinetic study has been carried out on the oxidation of N, N, N′, N′,-tetraethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TEPD) by metal ion like Ce4+, oxoanions viz., MnO4? and Cr2O72?; peroxides such as peroxomonosulphate (PMS), peroxodisulphate (PDS), and H2O2; and halogens namely Cl2, Br2, and I2. The fast kinetics of the formation and decay of the radical cation TEPD˙+ have been analyzed at 565 nm by the stopped-flow technique under pseudo-first-order conditions. From the kinetic data, it has been inferred that the reactions were found to be of first-order with respect to [TEPD] and [oxidant] but over all it has been of second-order. The observed second-order rate constants in both the formation and decay of TEPD˙+ has been correlated with the oxidation potentials of the various oxidants employed in this study. The effect of pH on the oxidation has been investigated in the formation and decay of TEPD˙+ as well as reduction studies have also been carried out using dithionite which has been found to regenerate the TEPD from the TEPD˙+ and the corresponding rate constant has also been determined. Besides these, this article also explains how the TEPD, which forms TEPD˙+ acts as a better electron relay than TMPD(N, N, N′, N′-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine) which forms TMPD˙+, even though both of them undergo one-electron oxidation and are used in the chemical routes to solar energy conversions. The observed rate constants for electron transfer were correlated theoretically using Marcus theory. The observed and calculated rate constants have good correlation. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Two classes of binding sites, a single high-affinity site with an association constant of 4·8×106 M−1 and two low-affinity sites with association constant of about 0·05×106 M−1 have been observed in the interaction of Naproxen with bovine serum albumin (BSA). Chemical modification of two tryptophan
residues in BSA with 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzyl bromide has led to a reduction in the association constant of the high-affinity
site by 89% and its number of binding sites by 66% suggesting the involvement of tryptophan residues in the high-affinity
site. In contrast, the two low-affinity sites were not affected by the modification. Binding of Naproxen to the low-affinity
sites of BSA induces microdisorganisation of the albumin structure leading to conformational changes as evident from fluorescence
measurements with 1-anilino-8-naphthalenesulphonic acid as the probe. 相似文献

Tear proteomics, by 2-DE, can give a fingerprint of the protein profile, which is well suited in clinical proteomics for biomarker identification and in diagnostics. The mode of tear collection can influence the representation of the proteins in the tear and therefore it is important to use the appropriate method. In this study, capillary and Schirmer mode of tear collection was done in the healthy controls and the Schirmer method was validated in dry eye syndrome conditions. 2-D PAGE of normal and dry eye tear was performed using pH 3-10 linear IPG strips followed by 13% SDS-PAGE. The spot intensity was analyzed by the PD quest software. The two methods were compared using Bland-Altman statistical tool. The 2-D map of capillary and Schirmer tear showed 147 ± 8 spots and 145 ± 7 spots respectively. Both the collection methods were in agreement with each other and were comparable. Dry eye tear protein showed differential expression of proteins as observed in 25-35 kDa region. One of the significantly reduced protein was identified as proline-rich 4 protein. Schirmer method of tear collection is reliable in patients with dry eye, which can display the differential protein expression and help in biomarker identification. 相似文献
