Effects of ammonia and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) on morphologies of ZnO nano- and micromaterials under solvothermal process

Submicrometer zinc oxide (ZnO) with different morphologies including spindle-like, pencil-like, branch rod-like and frizzy flower-like shapes, have been hydrothermally synthesized in mixed solvents of ethanol and water at 140 degrees C. It was found that the volumes of added ammonia, surfactant (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB), and mixed solvent play crucial roles in morphological control of ZnO nanostructures. Increasing the volume of ammonia added to the reaction system, the shape of ZnO evolves from spindle into branch rod-like. Synergetic influence between CTAB and ammonia can only be observed at high concentration of ammonia.

Preparation and characterization of a layered transparent luminescent thin film of silica-CTAB-Tb(acac)(3) composite with mesostructure

A layered luminescent mesostructured thin film of silica-CTAB-Tb(acac)(3) composite has been synthesized by a dip-coating process through an in situ sol-gel method. The terbium (Tb3+) ion and beta-diketone organic ligand acetylacetone (acac) were introduced into the precursor solution, respectively. The as-synthesized composite film was transparent, colorless and possessed a layered structure. After the composite film was dried at 50 degreesC for a few minutes Tb(acac)(3) complex was synthesized in the mesostructured thin film, which can be indicated by the luminescence of the composite film under the UV lamp. The properties of the samples were characterized by XRD, absorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and luminescent spectra.

Influence of capping ligands on the self-organizations of gold nanoparticles into superlattice from CTAB reverse micelles

Gold nanoparticles with size 3-10 nm (diameter) were prepared by the reduction of HAuCl4 in a CTAB/octane + 1-butanol/H2O reverse micelle system using NaBH4 as the reducing agent. The as-formed gold nanoparticle colloid was characterized by UV/vis absorption spectrum and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). Various capping ligands, such as alkylthiols with different chain length and shape, trioctylphosphine (TOP), and pyridine are used to passivate the gold nanoparticles for the purpose of self-organization into superstructures. It is shown that the ligands have a great influence on the self-organization of gold nanoparticles into superlattices, and dodecanethiol C12H25SH is confirmed to be the best ligand for the self-organization. Self-organization of C12H25SH-capped gold nanoparticles into 1D, 2D and 3D superlattices has been observed on the carbon-coated copper grid by TEM without using any selective precipitation process.

Formation of ordered arrays of gold nanoparticles from CTAB reverse micelles

In this presentation, a reverse micelle technique was described to create colloid gold nanoparticles and their self-organization into superlattices. Gold nanoparticles were prepared by the reduction of HAuCL4 in CTAB/octane + 1-butanol/H2O reverse micelle system using NaBH4 as reducing agent. Dodecanethiol (C12H25SH) was used to passivate the gold nanoparticles immediately after formation of the gold colloid. After re-dispersing in toluene under ultrasonication, a supernatant containing nearly monodispersed dodecanethiol-capped gold nanoparticles was obtained. Self-organization of the gold nanoparticles into 1D, 2D and 3D superlattices was observed on the carbon-coated copper grid by TEM. UV-vis absorption spectra were also used to characterize the gold colloids with and without dodecanethiol capping. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

禾谷类作物水稻和小麦是人们的主要植物性食物来源．而这些作物种子蛋白质中人类不能合成的必需氨基酸含量不平衡，造成了优质蛋白质的缺乏和人体对蛋白质利用的极大浪费．大约有二分之一的谷类种子蛋白质和四分之一的大豆蛋白质不能被合理地利用。大多数禾本科作物包括水稻和小麦的种子蛋白质中第一限制性氨基酸是赖氨酸，纠正其不平衡现象可大大提商蛋白质的营养价值。本研究在高赖氨酸植物种的筛选、高赖氨酸种子储藏蛋白质的纯化及其基因的分离等方面开展了工作。 选用与禾本科亲缘关系较远的8个植物种为研究材料，它们分别属于榛科，十字花科、胡桃科、豆科、胡麻科和松科。氨基酸组分分析确定豆科和十字花科的三个植物种赖氨酸含量在5.5%以上，其中豆科植物四棱豆(Pso phocarpus tetragonolobus)种子全蛋白赖氨酸含量达7.9%．用5种提取液提取了四棱豆种子的清蛋白、球蛋白和全蛋白。经测定发现0.025M Tris.HCl(pH7.4)提取液提取的清蛋白赖氨酸含量高最．通过自然胶电泳，SDS-PAGB电泳，非变牲IEF和变性IEF／SDS双向电泳，对四棱豆种子清蛋白进行了定性研究。用变性IEF/ SDS双向电泳分析出60多种蛋白质和蛋白质亚基及多肽。研究中改进了等电聚焦电泳纯化蛋白质的方法，经处理的胶板显现出清晰的蛋白质带型，不需染色即可确定带的位置，从切下的胶条中洗脱的蛋白质，其纯度达到双向电泳纯和HPLC纯。用三种电溶方法(SDS-PAGE非变性IEF，变性IEF)纯化出三十一种蛋白质或多肽分子。分别进行了分子量确定和氨基酸组分分析，发现了一个赖氨酸含量高达11.4%的蛋白质，其分子量为18KD，并制备了该蛋白质的抗体，测定了18KD蛋白质N端30个氨基酸残基的顺序，根据这一顺序设计合成了一组17个核苷酸的基因探针．经鉴定单链DNA探针的纯度和总量达到了设计要求。用尿素法与CTAB法结合提取了四棱豆幼苗核基因组DNA，其分子量在50Kb以上，达到了构建GenormicDNA文库的要求．用bamHI EcoRI和HindⅢ三种酶切割提取的DNA，得到了分子量大小不同的片段。 对四棱豆种子蛋白质的定性、高赖氨酸蛋白质的纯化、18KD蛋白N端序列分析及寡核苷酸探针的合成以及GcnomicDNA的提取与酶切，尚未见有资料报道．这些工作为克隆高赖氨酸基因打下了良好的基础，对改良禾本科作物蛋白质品质意义深远．

天山不同海拔高度下长鳞红景天种群遗传多样性分析

长鳞红景天（Rhodiola gelida）属景天科红景天属，多年生草本。主要分布在我国新疆中部天山。在天山一号冰川观测试验站附近的高寒草甸上，从海拔3850m~4010m均有长鳞红景天分布。长鳞红景天是一种重要的药用植物，但目前尚未见到有关其遗传多样性方面的研究报道。本文利用相关序列扩增多态性（sequence-related amplified polymorphism，SRAP）分子标记技术，对新疆天山不同海拔高度3个长鳞红景天种群的遗传多样性，种群内及种群间的遗传变异进行研究，为有效保护和合理利用长鳞红景天物种资源提供理论依据。主要结果如下： （1）基于CTAB法，建立了适合长鳞红景天的DNA提取方法，获得的DNA经琼脂糖电泳和紫外分析仪检测，浓度和质量均较高。该法有利于去除长鳞红景天植物材料中多糖、多酚类等物质，获得的高质量基因组DNA能够满足后续的PCR实验要求。 （2）采用正交实验对影响长鳞红景天SRAP-PCR反应的4个主要因素（Taq酶用量、Mg2+浓度、dNTP浓度、引物浓度）进行优化试验，选出这4个因素的最佳水平组合，建立了长鳞红景天SRAP-PCR最佳反应体系。同时，根据最佳体系筛选出扩增稳定、多态性丰富的SRAP引物。通过梯度PCR确定引物的最佳退火温度，得到了适合长鳞红景天SRAP-PCR反应的最佳扩增程序。 （3）对20对SRAP引物的扩增结果进行统计分析显示：长鳞红景天物种水平的多态位点百分率(P)为96.00 %，Shannon信息指数(I)为0.4484、基因多样性指数(H)为0.2922，表现出较高的遗传多样性水平；在海拔梯度上，长鳞红景天各种群间的遗传多样性水平有一定差异，但没有呈现规律性的变化；AMOVA分子变异分析显示，在总遗传变异中24.76 % 的变异存在于种群间，75.24 % 的变异存在于种群内，种群间的基因分化系数(Gst)为0.1749，表明3个长鳞红景天种群的变异主要存在于种群内，但种群间也出现了一定程度的遗传分化；长鳞红景天3个种群间的基因流为2.3595，遗传距离平均值为0.0981（变化范围：0.0768 ～0.1196），遗传距离较近，说明海拔高度对长鳞红景天的地理隔离较小；相关性分析表明长鳞红景天种群的遗传多样性与各生态因子的相关性均不显著。

Discharges and sediments as sources of extracellular alkaline phosphatase in a shallow Chinese eutrophic lake

Total alkaline phosphatase activity (APA) and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) concentrations were measured in municipal wastewater, and a shallow Chinese freshwater lake receiving it. Activities of Dissolved alkaline phosphatase ( ADAP) in overlying and interstitial water were also analyzed monthly at three sites for several years. The lake was enriched with SRP and alkaline phosphatase by discharge of the wastewater, indicating that the inclusion of APA for estimating water pollution was reasonable. Annual data showed that APA in coarser fraction was significantly higher at the site receiving more wastewaters, both in surface and overlying water, suggesting that resuspension of enzyme most likely occurred in the basin heavily discharged. ADAP was an order of magnitude higher in the wastewater than those in lake waters, and was generally higher in interstitial water, a feature more striking at the site receiving more discharges. Besides, it was irrespectively inhibited by Na2WO4, L-cysteine and EDTA-Na, but stimulated by Cu2+, Zn2+, CTAB and Triton X-100 in interstitial, overlying and surface waters. This similarity of responding patterns to the stressors indicated an analogy between dissolved alkaline phosphatase in water column and that in interstitial water, supporting the hypothesis that the polluted sediments act as source of dissolved alkaline phosphatase in eutrophic lakes.

Water solubility enhancement of phthalates by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and beta-cyclodextrin

Water solubility enhancements of six phthalates (five aliphatic phthalates and one phenyl phthalate) by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) were studied at 25 degreesC. The solubilities of these plithalates are remarkably enhanced by CTAB solutions above the critical micelle concentration (cmc). Only marginal enhancement of phthalate solubility was observed in solutions containing CTAB below its cmc and beta-CD at low concentrations (less than 5 mM). The solubility enhancements of the plithalates are proportional to the added amount of CTAB and beta-CD. Partition coefficients of the plithalates between monomeric CTAB surfactant and water (K-MN) and between CTAB micelle and water K-MC) were estimated from the experimental data. The mechanisms of solubility enhancements by CTAB and beta-CD were discussed. A log-linear equation was proposed and evaluated for the solubilization by CTAB below cmc, while the previously proposed linear partitioning model was questioned. The structures of the complexes formed between plithalates and beta-CD were proposed, and the formation constants were estimated. The values of log K-MC, log K-MN, and log Kbeta-CD of the plithalates were found to correlate linearly with the log K-OW of plithalates, with the exception of the solid phenyl phthalate.

Fluorescence pH probe based on microstructured polymer optical fiber

A kind of optical pH sensor was demonstrated that is based on a pH-sensitive fluorescence dye-doped (eosin) cellulose acetate (CA) thin-film modified microstructured polymer optical fiber (MPOF). It was obtained by directly inhaling an eosin-CA-acetic acid mixed solution into array holes in a MPOF and then removing the solvent (acetic acid). The sensing film showed different fluorescence intensities to different pH solutions in a pH range of 2.5-4.5. Furthermore, the pH response range could be tailored through doping a surfactant, hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), in the sensing film. (c) 2007 Optical Society of America.

核酸与电极表面和小分子相互作用的研究

首次用现场红外光谱电化学方法研究了自然状态和热变性的CT DNA在玻碳电极（GCE）表面的电化学过程。发现在-0.2 V-1.3 V的电位范围内，自然状态的CT DNA可有为附在GCE表面，且吸附状态随电极度电位改变。在pH4-9的范围内，热变性CT DNA在GCE表面先发生吸附反应，接着发生氧化反应并从电极表面脱附，氧化过程完全不可逆；但在酸性条件下（pH1.28）反应部分可逆。同时用现场红外光谱电化学法研究了酵母RNA和鲱鱼精DNA在GCE表面的氧化与吸附行为，为研究核酸的氧化反应机理提供进一步的证据。用电化学法和光谱法（UV-vis, CD和FTIR）研究了一系列阳离子染料与核酸的作用，发现阳离子染料可与核酸生成非电活性物质，并获得了它们与核酸的结合常数。发现染料与核酸的结合模式与二者浓度比有关。静电作用，氢键和温度在二者互相作用中起重要作用。CTAB与核酸结合后改变了核酸双螺旋的微环境，CTAB，MG和CT DNA相互作用可以形成一种三无化合物，CTAB-CT DNA-MG。高浓度的NR与CT DNA作用后，在DNA双螺旋的表面聚集，使核酸的构象由B型转变为Z型。
