Lipoproteins, especially high-density lipoproteins (HDL), very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and small, dense low-density lipoprotein (sdLDL), are believed to play an important role in the development of atherosclerosis. In this work, a simple, selective and sensitive method for the simultaneous monitoring of these lipoproteins in human serum using microchip capillary electrophoresis was developed. Gold nanoparticles were used as an additive to the running buffer to obtain the absolute separation of the lipoproteins. Under optimised conditions, the linear ranges of large buoyant low-density lipoproteins, sdLDL, VLDL and HDL were 10–800, 10–800, 40–1,000 and 20–800 μg L−1, and their limits of detection were 5, 5, 15 and 8 μg L−1, respectively. The intraassay and interassay relative standard deviation of lipoprotein peak areas were in the range of 3.8–7.4%. For practical application, variations in the serum lipoprotein of coronary heart disease patients were monitored by microchip-based CE. The results showed that the method was applicable for routine clinical use and allowed the rapid detection of different lipoprotein classes as well as their subclasses, thus greatly improving the analysis of atherosclerotic risk factors.
A kind of ferroelectrics-ferromagnet mixed ceramics material which ∈≈μ=75 to 80 has been prepared successfully. The original ferroelectrics and ferromagnet materials and the mixed ceramics material have been studied by means of Mössbauer spectroscopy, etc. Mössbauer study indicated the presence of a relaxation effect in the mixed ceramics and the differences of Mössbauer parameters, especially, the hyperfine field distributionsP(H) between the mixed ceramics and the original ferromagnet materials. These results showed that complicated hyperfine interactions exist in mixed ceramics. The sintering temperature has an effect on the cation distribution in mixed ceramics. 相似文献
A nanoscale terbium‐containing metal–organic framework ( nTbL ), with a layer‐like structure and [H2NMe2]+ cations located in the framework channels, was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The structure of the as‐prepared sample was systematically confirmed by powder XRD and elemental analysis; the morphology was characterized by field‐emission SEM and TEM. The photoluminescence studies revealed that rod‐like nTbL exhibited bright‐green emission, corresponding to 5D4→7FJ (J=6–3) transitions of the Tb3+ ion under excitation. Further sensing measurements revealed that as‐prepared nTbL could be utilized as a multiresponsive luminescent sensor, which showed significant and exclusive detection ability for Fe3+ ions and phenylmethanol. These results highlight the practical applications of lanthanide‐containing metal–organic frameworks as fluorescent probes. 相似文献
Ge nanofilms were deposited from aqueous solutions using the electrochemical analog of atomic layer deposition (ALD). Direct electrodeposition of Ge from an aqueous solution is self-limited to a few monolayers, depending on the pH. This report describes an E-ALD process for the growth of Ge films from aqueous solutions. The E-ALD cycle involved inducing a Ge atomic layer to deposit on a Te atomic layer formed on Ge, via underpotential deposition (UPD). The Te atomic layer was then reductively stripped from the deposit, leaving the Ge and completing the cycle. The Te atomic layer was bait for Ge deposition, after which the Te was switched out, reduced to a soluble telluride, leaving the Ge (one "bait and switch" cycle). Deposit thickness was a linear function of the number of cycles. Raman spectra indicated formation of an amorphous Ge film, consistent with the absence of a XRD pattern. Films were more stable and homogeneous when formed on Cu substrates, than on Au, due to a larger hydrogen overpotential, and the corresponding lower tendency to form bubbles. 相似文献
The concentration quenching threshold of upconversion luminescence was broken through for the first time via a designed strategy: spatial separation of the emitter doping area. 相似文献
