用TMS—2型热机分析仪测量热释蠕变

对已经商品化的Perkin-Elmer TMS-2型热机分析仪进行改进,用来测量聚合物材料的热释蠕变行为。按照7SCr分步加载的程序,用弯曲法测量了-83～300℃温度范围内低密度聚乙烯的玻璃化转变松弛过程,并从TSCr谱上计算其相应的分子参数,实验结果与用扭转的TSCr方法所得结果相等,因此这是一种研究聚合物材料松弛行为的方便可行的技术。     

Selective determination of oxygenates in complex samples with the O-FID analyzer

A gas-chromatographic analyzer allowing the selective detection of individual oxygenates in complex organic mixtures, such as gasolines, is described. The analyzer is based on the oxygen-specific response flame ionization detection (O-FID) method. The system operates with capillary columns and includes a cracking reactor to convert any oxygenate to carbon monoxide and a special FID equipped with a microreactor for the catalytic hydro-genation of CO and detection as methane. Hydrocarbons give no signal. The selectivity of the method is better than 1:10⁷ and the linear range approaches 10⁵. The analysis of modern fuels containing oxygenated additives, to improve octane ratings, may greatly benefit from the proposed analytical method.

Multipurpose chamber for the implementation of gas diffusion, dialysis, solid-phase extraction and precipitation/dissolution in continuous flow analyzers

A multipurpose chamber capable of implementing a variety of continuous separation techniques is reported. The proposed module can be used in conjunction with flow manifolds coupled on-line to optical detectors in order to develop simple autoanalyzers for full sample pretreatment. The analytical applicability of such a device is discussed with specific regard to gas diffusion, dialysis, solid-phase extraction (SPE), and precipitation/dissolution techniques. Its versatility and simplicity are among the main advantages. Four different automated analyzers based on the use of the multipurpose chamber have been developed for monitoring of different quality control parameters of liquid food samples, namely, carbon dioxide in beer, ascorbic acid in fruit juice, caffeine in soft drinks and lactose, fat and protein in milk. The results obtained were compared with those provided by the existing alternatives for the same applications in terms of sensitivity and precision.     

Applications of the O-FID oxygenes analyzer in the cosmetic industry

Summary The application of the O-FID Oxygenates Analyzer developed for the selective determination of oxygenated compounds in modern fuels has been studied for the identification and characterization of essential oils. In comparison to FID detection the O-FID technique results in a much simpler chromatogram. Because of the high selectivity for oxygenated compounds the O-FID method offers a fast and reliable quality control and positive identification of samples of different origin. Chromatograms obtained for lavender oils of different origin, natural and synthetic lemon oils and oils of bergamot respectively, as well as for camomilla oils are presented.     

Genetic analyzer-dependent DNA methylation detection and its application to existing age prediction models

DNA methylation is the most promising biomarker for estimating human age. There are various methods used for analyzing DNA methylation. Among those, the SNaPshot assay-based method provides a semi-quantitative measurement of DNA methylation using capillary electrophoresis on genetic analyzers. However, DNA methylation measures produced using different types of genetic analyzers have never been compared, although differences in methylation values can directly affect age estimates. To evaluate the differences between the results generated by different genetic analyzers, we analyzed the same blood, saliva, and control methylated DNA using three genetic analyzers—the Applied Biosystems 3130, 3500, and SeqStudio—and compared the methylation values at five CpG sites: ELOVL2, FHL2, KLF14, MIR29B2C, and TRIM59. The methylation value at each of the five CpG sites decreased in the order 3130, 3500, and SeqStudio. The differences in the results produced by the different genetic analyzers resulted in significant errors when applying the 3500 and SeqStudio data to a previous age estimation model constructed using the 3130 Genetic Analyzer data. Therefore, DNA methylation measurements from 3500 and SeqStudio were corrected using the regression functions obtained by plotting the DNA methylation data of one instrument versus the other to facilitate the application of DNA methylation data from one instrument to the age prediction model based on other instruments. The age prediction accuracy obtained by applying corrected 3500 and SeqStudio data to the existing age estimation model was as high as observed in the 3130 data.     

大同烟煤增压富氧燃烧过程中硫、氯和氟的析出特性

利用高压热重结合傅里叶红外研究了大同烟煤在增压富氧燃烧过程中硫、氯和氟的释放行为,主要考察压力对其析出特性的影响。实验结果表明,压力的改变对煤中硫、氯和氟的迁移转化均有显著影响。随着压力的升高,黄铁矿硫向COS等中间产物的转化率逐渐增加,导致SO2的收率逐步上升,但在3 MPa时,燃煤SO2收率却有所降低。此外,压力升高后反应气氛中CO分压的增加促进了COS的生成,导致其收率逐渐上升。因为煤中有机氯析出和转化与挥发分的释放密切相关,所以高压下挥发分释放量的增加使得煤中有更多的有机氯析出并转化为HCl,而且压力升高后,挥发分燃烧速率和温度的升高促进了无机氟化物分解,HF生成量相应增加。此外,高压下水解反应的强化也提高了HF的收率。
