预富集装置在QCM传感器检测芥子气中的运用

在化学战剂的诸种检测方法中, 质量型微传感器以其响应快速、使用简便等优点成为一种理想的检测手段. 但是这种传感器的使用往往受到检出限的限制, 对于低浓度的毒剂不能及时报警. 预富集技术的运用可以提高微传感器的检测限. 本文研制了一种预富集装置并对其进行了初步测试. 芥子气通过此预富集装置之后在QCM(石英晶体微天平)传感器上的检出限可以达到0.1 mg/m3.

Rotational spectra, nuclear quadrupole hyperfine tensors, and conformational structures of the mustard gas simulent 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide

Rotational spectra have been recorded for both the ³⁵Cl and ³⁷Cl isotopic forms of two structural conformations of 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES). The rotational constants of the ³⁵Cl and ³⁷Cl isotopomers were used to identify the conformational isomers. A total of 236 hyperfine transitions have been assigned for 47 rotational transitions of the ³⁵Cl isotope of a GGT conformer, and 146 hyperfine have been assigned for 37 rotational transitions of the ³⁷Cl isotopomer. For the second conformer, a total of 128 (110) hyperfine and 30 (28) rotational transitions have also been assigned to the ³⁵Cl (³⁷Cl) isotopes of a TGT conformation. The extensive hyperfine splitting data, measured to high resolution with a compact Fourier transform microwave spectrometer, were used to determine both the diagonal and off-diagonal elements of the ³⁵Cl and ³⁷Cl nuclear quadrupole coupling tensors in the inertial tensor principal axis system. The experimental rotational constant data, as well as the ³⁵Cl and ³⁷Cl nuclear quadrupole coupling tensors, were compared to the results from 27 optimized ab initio (HF/6-311++G^∗∗ and MP2/6-311++G^∗∗) model structures.     

Screening hydrolysis products of sulfur mustard agents by high-performance liquid chromatography with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry detection

Sulfur mustard (HD), bis(2-chloroethyl)sulfide, is one of a class of mustard agents which are chemical warfare agents. The main chemical warfare hydrolysis degradation products of sulfur mustards are: thiodiglycol, bis(2-hydroxyethylthio)methane, 1,2-bis(2-hydroxyethylthio)ethane, 1,3-bis(2-hydroxyethylthio)propane, and 1,4-bis(2-hydroxyethylthio)butane. The aim of this study is to identify these five hydrolysis degradation products utilizing reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for element-specific sulfur detection using a collision/reaction cell and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry to confirm the identification. To date, this is the first study utilizing ICP-MS with ³²S element-specific detection for the analysis of vesicant chemical warfare agent degradation products.     

Biochemical evaluation of sulfur and nitrogen assimilation potential of mustard (Brassica juncea L. Czern. & Coss.) under application of slow-release sulfur fertilizer

Pot experiments were conducted to study the efficacy of a slow sulfur-releasing fertilizer, sulfur glass fritz (SGF 1), on growth, photosynthesis, and sulfur, and nitrogen assimilation potentials of brown mustard (Brassica juncea L. Czern. & Coss. cv. Pusa Jaikisan). Growth as indicated by biomass accumulation slowed down in response to the application of sulfur glass fritz. A similar trend was observed in the case of photosynthesis rate. The activity of two marker enzymes, ATP-sulfurylase and nitrate reductase, showed very low levels of activity, indicating poor assimilation of sulfur and nitrogen by the plant under sulfur glass fritz. It is therefore concluded that the release of sulfur by sulfur glass fritz is too slow and that the initial nonavailability of sulfur to the plants could lead to suboptimization of both sulfur- and nitrogen-assimilating enzymes. These factors may contribute to low rates of photosynthesis and poor growth.

Squeezing flow of semi liquid foods between parallel Teflon coated plates

Samples of commercial tomato paste, low fat mayonnaise and mustard about 6–8 mm thick were squeezed to 0.8 mm at various speeds between 5 mm min⁻¹ and 25 mm min⁻¹ between Teflon-coated parallel plates 127 mm in diameter using an Instron UTM Model 5542. All the log force vs log height relationships had a clearly identified linear region. This indicated that a dominant squeezing flow regime was achieved at about 3 mm height, and that the machine has the proper stiffness to perform the tests. The stress level at a pre-selected height in this region is a measure of consistency, sensitive enough to distinguish between products of different brands. The residual stress after relaxation for about 2 min was on order of 10–50% of the initial stress, an indication that all three foods have a considerable structural integrity. In all three products there was a considerable discrepancy between the observed rate effects and predictions based on a pseudoplastic (power law) model. It could be described by the empirical relation (F_v1 − F_R)/(F_v2 − F_R)=(V₁/V₂)^m where F_v1 and F_v2 are the forces at the given displacement reached at speeds v₁ and v₂ respectively, F_R is the residual force after relaxation (found to be practically rate independent), and m is a constant of the order of 0.15–0.33, independent of the compression velocities ratio but characteristic of the food and brand. The calculated elongational viscosity was not a unique function of biaxial strain rate. To a certain extent, this was probably due to imperfect lubrication. But it was also a manifestation of these products considerable structural integrity which cannot be accounted for by models developed for ideal liquids. Received: 1 November 1999 Accepted: 2 May 2000
