Mass and isotopic concentrations of water-insoluble refractory carbon in total suspended particulates at Mt.Waliguan Observatory(China)

Mass concentration and isotopic values δ¹³C and ¹⁴C are presented for the water-insoluble refractory carbon（WIRC） component of total suspended particulates（TSP）,collected weekly during 2003,as well as from October 2005 to May 2006 at the WMO-GAW Mt.Waliguan（WLG） site.The overall average WIRC mass concentration was（1183±120）ng/m³（n = 79）,while seasonal averages were 2081 ±1707（spring）,454±205（summer）,650±411（autumn）,and 1019±703（winter） ng/m3.Seasonal variations in WIRC mass concentrations were consistent with black carbon measurements from an aethalometer,although WIRC concentrations were typically higher,especially in winter and spring.The δ¹³C PDB value（-25.3 ± 0.8）%.determined for WIRC suggests that its sources are C₃ biomass or fossil fuel combustion.No seasonal change in δ¹³C PDB was evident.The average percent Modern Carbon（pMC） for ¹⁴C in WIRC for winter and spring was（67.2 ± 7.7）%（n = 29）.Lower pMC values were associated with air masses transported from the area east of WLG,while higher pMC values were associated with air masses from the Tibetan Plateau,southwest of WLG.Elevated pMC values with abnormally high mass concentrations of TSP and WIRC were measured during a dust storm event.     

抗坏血酸/谷氨酸Maillard反应体系中间产物和褐变程度的研究

用磷酸缓冲溶液配制一系列不同质量分数的抗坏血酸/谷氨酸混合溶液pH8.0并在130℃下加热发生Maillard反应,对反应后体系的中间产物(A294nm)、褐变程度(A420nm)以及反应过程中抗坏血酸和谷氨酸的含量进行检测分析.结果显示,抗坏血酸通过热解产物与氨基酸发生Maillard反应,抗坏血酸质量分数的增大能促进反应体系的褐变,谷氨酸质量分数对反应体系褐变程度的影响不大.任意增大一种反应物的质量分数均可对无色中间产物的生成起促进作用,且抗坏血酸对中间产物生成的影响大于谷氨酸.     

Lipase‐Supported Metal–Organic Framework Bioreactor Catalyzes Warfarin Synthesis

A green and sustainable strategy synthesizes clinical medicine warfarin anticoagulant by using lipase‐supported metal–organic framework (MOF) bioreactors (see scheme). These findings may be beneficial for future studies in the industrial production of chemical, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical precursors.
