Electrostatic layer-by-layer assembly of polycation and DNA multilayer films by real-time surface plasmon resonance technique

The assembly of alternating DNA and positively charged poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) (PDDA) multilayer films by electrostatic layer-by-layer adsorption has been studied. Real time surface plasmon resonance (BIAcore) technique was used to characterize and monitor the formation of multilayer films in solution in real time continuously. The results indicate that the uniform multilayer can be obtained on the poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) coated substrate surface. The kinetics of the adsorption of DNA on PDDA surface was also studied by real-time BIAcore technique, and the observed rate constant was calculated using a Langmuir model (k(obs) = (1.28 +/- 0.08) x 10(-2) s(-1)).

Enhanced surface plasmon resonance immunosensing using a streptavidin-biotinylated protein complex

In this paper, we present a novel strategy for improving the sensitivity of surface plasmon resonance immunosensing using a streptavidin-biotinylated protein complex. This amplification strategy is based on the construction of a molecular complex between streptavidin and biotin labeled protein. The complex can be formed in a cross-linking network of molecules so that the amplification of the response signal will be realized due to the big molecular size of the complex. The results show that the amplification strategy causes a dramatic improvement of the detection sensitivity. hIgG protein could be detected in the range of 0.005-10 mug ml(-1).

16-and 18-electron Cp*Rh complexes with 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecabofane(12)-1,2-dichalcogenolato ligands, as studied by multinuclear magnetic resonance

The reaction of [Cp*RhCl2](2) 1 with dilithium 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane(12)-1,2-dithiolate (a) and -diselenolate (b) afforded the 16-electron rhodium(III) half-sandwich complexes Cp*Rh[E2C2(B10H10)] [E=S (3a), Se (3b)]. The 18-electron trimethylphosphane rhodium(III) half-sandwiches Cp*Rh(PMe3)[E2C2(B10H10)] 4a-c were prepared from the reaction of Cp*RhCl2(PMe3) 2 with the same dichalcogenolates, including the ditelluride (c). The complexes 4a,b could also be obtained from the reaction of 3a,b with trimethylphosphane. The molecular geometry of 4b was determined by X-ray structural analysis. The 16-electron complexes 3 an monomeric in solution as shown by multinuclear magnetic resonance (H-1-, B-11-, C-13-, P-31- Se-77-, Rh-103-, Te-125-NMR). also in comparison with the data for the trimethylphosphane analogues 4a-c and for 6a in which the rhodium bears the eta(5)-1,3-C5H3 Bu-t(2) ligand.

Review on study of resonance electron capture mass spectrometry

Resonance electron capture mass spectrometry, in which an additional information coordinate, the energy of electron capture, is applied, has a high sensitivity and a high specificity. It is extensively used to study the structure elucidation, the mechanism of ion formation and the detection, identification and quantification of organic substances in mixture.

Study on the modified electrode of conducting polymers .3. Electron spin resonance characteristic of polypyrrole film electrode doped with heteropolyanions

The ESR of PPy films doped with Co (W2O7)(6)(10-) and CuW12O406- ions were reported and discussed. Results show that heteropolyanions not only play the role of neutralizing electricity in the PPy film, but also interact with the PPy molecular chain to form some adducts. The adducts affect the electronic structure of the PPy film and are unstable at more positive or more negative potentials. Dysonian ESR lineshape was recorded for the dry PPy film with CuW12O406- for the first time.

MAGNETIC-RESONANCE EXPERIMENTS ON UNDOPED AND DOPED POLY(PARA-PHENYLENE)

We investigated the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of undoped, FeCl3- and iodine-doped poly(para-phenylene) (PPP) prepared by the method of Kovacic. EPR measurements are used to characterize electronic states relevant for carrier transport in doped PPP. We found a novel dependence of room temperature linewidth (DELTAH(pp)) and spin density (N(spin)) on the dopant concentrations for iodine-doped PPP, namely, DELTAH(pp) first decreased and increased, and then decreased and increased again with increasing iodine concentration in the iodine-doped PPP. The corresponding value of N(spin) first increased and decreased, and then increased and decreased again with increasing iodine concentration in PPP. However, the changes in DELTAH(pp) and N(spin) with FeCl3 concentration in FeCl3-doped PPP differ from those of iodine-doped PPP. We explain the different EPR properties in FeCl3-doped and iodine-doped PPP.
