Ab initio molecular orbital calculations have been used to determine the degree of charge localization associated with the formation of radical cations on electron impact of formamide, thioformamide and their N-methyl and N, N-dimethyl analogues. The charge favours the nitrogen of formamides and the sulphur of thioformamides, but the degree of localization is calculated to be lower than in the radical cations of urea and thiourea. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to measure the shear modulus of the vocal fold in a human hemilarynx, such that the data can be related to direction of applied stress and anatomical context. Dynamic spring rate data were collected using a modified linear skin rheometer using human hemilarynges, and converted to estimated shear modulus via application of a simple shear model. The measurement probe was attached to the epithelial layer of the vocal fold cover using suction. A sinusoidal force of 3g was applied to the epithelium, and the resultant displacement logged at a rate of 1kHz. Force measurement accuracy was 20microg and position measurement accuracy was 4microm. The force was applied in a transverse direction at the midmembranous point between the vocal process and the anterior commissure. The shear modulus of the three female vocal folds ranged from 814 to 1232Pa. The shear modulus of the three male vocal folds ranged from 1021 to 1796Pa. These data demonstrate that it is possible to obtain estimates for the shear modulus of the vocal fold while preserving anatomical context. The modulus values reported here are higher than those reported using parallel plate rheometry. This is to be expected as the tissue is attached to surrounding structures, and is under natural tension. 相似文献

A considerable volume of research has now been completed on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) to the analysis of bacteria; however, to date no definitive studies have been made using this technique on fungi. Preliminary studies on the application of the MALDI-MS methodology, previously developed for the analysis of bacteria, to the analysis of intact fungal spores are described here. MALDI-MS and electrospray mass spectrometry enable the high molecular weight analysis of proteins, glycoproteins, oligosaccharides and oligonucleotides. Using MALDI-MS with bacteria has demonstrated the ability to produce 'fingerprints' of the intact cells with the ions observed being associated with the proteinaceous components of the cell wall. This paper reports the adaptation of this technique to the direct analysis of fungal cells. The high percentage of carbohydrate in the fungal cell wall indicates that the ions observed in the mass spectrometric experiments may be of carbohydrate origin. Penicillium spp., Scytalidium dimidiatum and Trichophyton rubrum have been studied in this preliminary investigation and all show individually distinctive spectra which would appear to provide a profile of the cellular material with discrete peaks being observed over the mass range 2 to 13 kDa. The spectra obtained are reproducible within the method used but, as shown in our previous studies on bacteria, washing may selectively release components from the fungal cell wall. 相似文献

Under fast atom bombardment conditions, compounds having long alkyl chains may exhibit [M ? H]+ as the major quasimolecular ion species, which can lead to incorrect assignment of molecular masses. It is shown that for a long-chain ether the loss of the hydride occurs from the hydrocarbon chain remote from the oxygen. This effect may yield information concerning ionization mechanisms in fast atom bombardment/mass spectrometry. 相似文献

Two boron complexes of 5-phenyldipyrromethenes bearing isothiocyanate groups on the phenyl ring have been synthesized for the first time. The utility of these new fluorescence probes for labeling biologically relevant proteins is demonstrated on two monoclonal antibodies that bind to antigens overexpressed on cancer cells. Spectral comparison of the two structures reveals significant photophysical differences, including bathochromically shifted excitation and emission bands, increased molar absorptivity and a large increase in fluorescence quantum yield of approximately 10 times. Differences in photophysical parameters are linked to hindered rotation of the phenyl ring in one of the probes. 相似文献

Vocal fatigue is a complex multifaceted clinical phenomenon. Several hypotheses exist concerning its underlying mechanism, and a range of empirical studies have examined its manifestation. This article reviews the literature pertaining to the nature, underlying processes, and salient features of vocal fatigue. First, vocal fatigue is defined, its major symptoms are discussed, and hypotheses concerning its primary physiological and biomechanical mechanisms are considered. Second, studies of experimentally induced vocal fatigue in humans are evaluated. Third, research investigating the clinical and occupational manifestations of vocal fatigue is discussed. Fourth, directions for ongoing research in this area are offered. 相似文献

Sample preparation is a bottleneck in systems for chemical analysis and it is a required step in order to remove interference and preconcentrate the target analytes. Much research in recent years has focused on porous monolithic materials since they are highly permeable to liquid flow and show high mass transfer compared with common packed beds. This study has focused on the use of a glass microchip containing an inorganic silica-based monolithic material modified with octadecyl groups for preconcentration of milk proteins from skimmed cows’ milk that vary in molecular weight, hydrophobicity, and abundance. Comparison between the fabricated device and a commercial cartridge for the preconcentration of proteins in skimmed cows’ milk showed the ability of the device to successfully enrich protein mixtures from the sample. The three replicate experiments showed that the RSD of the mass to charge ratio of milk proteins ranged from 0.01 to 0.46%. In addition, it was found that there were no significant differences between the observed and reported masses of the milk proteins and the relative percentage error of the molecular masses ranged between 0.03 and 0.90%. The fact that the small amounts of sample required and short sample preparation time suggest that this new microfluidic device may be a viable alternative to existing procedures for protein extraction from real samples. 相似文献

A highly efficient protein digestion device has been fabricated using commercially available immobilized trypsin on agarose beads, packed into a silica capillary and connected either directly to an electrospray mass spectrometer via a 'microtight T' connector, from which aqueous acetic acid (0.2%) was pumped, or via a monolithic column connected to the mass spectrometer ion source. Six proteins with molecular mass ranging from 2848 to 77703 Da were digested completely using this system. In the second set of experiments a short monolithic separation column was placed after the immobilized trypsin capillary and partial separation of the generated peptides was obtained. The detection limits were increased from the micromol to pmol range by utilization of this separation column. Gradient elution, using a binary HPLC pump and a flow splitter, was used to optimize the peptide separation. This provided significantly enhanced resolution of the tryptic peptides but increased the analysis time to 30 minutes. 相似文献
