Crystal structure and DNA binding studies of a cobalt(Ⅱ) complex containing mixed-ligands of 1,10-phenathroline and glycollic acid

A cobalt（11） complex containing mixed-ligands of 1,10-phenathroline（phen） and glycollic acid（GA）.|Co（GA）₂（phen）| was synthesized and its structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction.The interaction of the complex with DNA was investigated by electronic absorption spectra and electrochemical methods.Electronic absorption spectrum experiments showed that after interaction with DNA.the characteristic absorption peaks of |Co（GA）₂（phen）| underwent hypochromic effect as well as redshift. Also,the binding strength of 3.8×10⁴L/mol was estimated by titration method.Electrochemical assays revealed that the redox peak currents of the complex decreased obviously accompanied by a positive shift of the formal potential after association with DNA.All these results revealed that the synthesized cobalt complex bound with DNA via an intercalation mode.     

Adsorption of graphene oxide/chitosan porous materials for metal ions

Porous graphene oxide/chitosan（PGOC） materials were prepared by a unidirectional freeze-drying method.Their porous structure,mechanical property and adsorption for metal ions were investigated.The results show that the incorporation of graphene oxide（GO） significantly increased the compressive strength of the PGOC materials.The saturated adsorption capacity of Pb²⁺ increased about 31%,up to 99 mg/g when 5 wt%GO was incorporated These biodegradable,nontoxic,efficient PGOC materials will be a potential adsorbent for metal ions in aqueous solution.     

Influence of pH value on microstructure and thermal stability of Ni-P electroless coating prepared in acidic condition

Three kinds of Ni-P electroless coatings were prepared in nickel sulphate solution at different pH values of 4.5,5.5 and 6.5 with the purpose of ascertaining the influence of pH value on microstructure,internal stress statue and thermal stability of the coatings.Laser curvature(LC) method was used to measure the residual stress level in the coatings.Scanning electronic microscopy(SEM) and transmission electronic microscopy with energy dispersive spectrum(TEM/EDS) were used to examine the surface morpholo...     

Hygroscopic growth of aerosol scattering coefficient:A comparative analysis between urban and suburban sites at winter in Beijing

A humidity controlled inlet system was developed to measure the hygroscopic growth of aerosol scattering coefficient in conjunction with nephelometry at an urban site of Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences (CAMS) in Beijing and a rural site at Shangdianzi Regional Background Air Pollution Monitoring Station (SDZ) outside Beijing during winter, from December 2005 to January 2006. Measurements were carried out at a wavelength of 525 nm with an Ecotech M9003 nephelometer. The hygroscopic growth function (or factor) of the aerosol scattering coefficientf(RH) increased continuously with increasing relative humidity (RH) and showed no obvious "step-like" deliquescent behavior at both sites during the experiment. The average growth factorf(RH) at the SDZ site could reach 1.5 when RH increased from less than 40% to 92%, and to 2.1 at the CAMS site when RH increased from less than 40% to 93%. The average hygroscopic growth factor at a relative humidity of 80%, f(RH=80±1%), was found to be about 1.26±0.15 at CAMS and 1.24±0.11 at SDZ. Further analysis indicated that under relatively polluted conditions, the average hygroscopic growth factor was higher at the CAMS site than that at the SDZ site. However, under relatively clean air conditions, the difference between the two sites was small, showing a hygroscopic growth behavior similar to those of burning biomass or blowing dust. These results reflected the different characteristics of aerosol types at the two sites.

Triacontyl modified silica gel as a sorbent for the preconcentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in aqueous samples prior to gas chromatographic-mass spectrometry determination

<正>Triacontyl modified silica gel as a sorbent coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS) was developed to determine EPA prior 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) in water samples.Various parameters of solid-phase extraction such as organic modifier solvent,eluent,sample flow rate and volume were optimized.The developed method was found to yield a linear calibration curve in the concentration range of 0.05-8μg/L with respect to naphthalene,acenaphthylene,acenaphthene and 0.01-8μg/L for dibenz[a,h]anthracene and 0.05-14μg/L for fluorene,phenanthrene,anthracene and 0.01-14μg/L for the rest of analytes.Furthermore,the good accuracy and repeatability of the method made sure the requirements for achieving reliable analysis of PAHs in the environmental water samples,and the recoveries of optimal method were in the range of 80-120%except to higher volatility PAHs.C_(30)-bonded silica was proved to be an efficient sorbent for extraction of high molecular weight PAHs.     

The antimicrobial activities of a series of bis-quaternary ammonium compounds

A series of bis-quaternary ammonium compounds(bis-QACs) N,N’-hevamethylenebis(1-alkyl-4-carbamoyl pyridinium bromide)(4BCAP-6,n)(alkyl chain length,n=8,10,12,14,16 and 18) were synthesized and characterized.Their surface tensions,critical micelle concentrations(CMC),and antimicrobial activities were evaluated.4BCAP-6,10 exhibited the strongest antimicrobial activities except for that against Proteus vulgari.The activities of 4BCAP-6.n against Escherichia coli zk126 were not significantly influenced by temperature.pH and initial bacteria concentration.These results indicate that bis-QACs exhibit high antimicrobial activity regardless of the environmental conditions.
