Characterization and application of monoclonal antibodies against turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) rhabdovirus

Five monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), 1G8, 1H9, 2D2, 2D3, and 2F5, against Scophthalmus maximus rhabdovirus (SMRV) were prepared. Characterization of the mAbs included indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, isotyping, viral inhibition assay, immunofluorescence staining of virus-infected cell cultures, and Western blot analysis. Isotyping revealed that 1G8 and 1H9 were of the IgG2b subclass and that the other three were IgM. 2D2, 2D3, and 2F5 partially inhibited SMRV infection in epithelioma. papulosum cyprinid (EPC) cell culture. Western blotting showed that all five mAbs could react with two SMRV proteins with molecular masses of approximately 30 kDa (P) and 26 kDa (M). These two proteins were localized within the cytoplasm of SMRV-infected EPC cells by immunofluorescence assay. Also, progressive foci of viral replication in cell cultures were monitored from 6 to 24 h, using mAb 2D3 as the primary antibody. A flow cytometry procedure was used to detect and quantify SMRV-infected (0.01 PFU/cell) EPC cells with mAb 2D3, and 10.8% of cells could be distinguished as infected 36 h postinfection. Moreover, mAb 2D3 was successfully applied for the detection of viral antigen in cryosections from flounder tissues by immunohistochemistry tests.

Fabrication, characterization, and application in surface-enhanced Raman spectrum of assembled type-I collagen-silver nanoparticle multilayered films

In this paper, we report a facile method for the fabrication of type-I collagen-silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) multilayered films by utilizing type-I collagen as a medium. These samples were characterized by UV-vis spectra photometer, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform IR spectrum. Experimental results show that collagen molecules serve as effective templates to assemble Ag NPs into multilayer films. These samples exhibit high surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement abilities.

Preparation of DNA - Silver nanohybrids in multilayer nanoreactors by in situ electrochemical reduction, characterization, and application

Novel nanocomposite films containing DNA-silver nanohybrids have been successfully fabricated by combined use of the layer-by-layer self-assembly technique and an in situ electrochemical reduction method with the DNA-Ag+ complex as one of the building blocks. UV-vis absorption spectroscopy was employed to monitor the buildup of the multilayer films, which suggested a progressive deposition with almost an equal amount of the DNA-Ag+ complex in each cycle. The following electrochemical reduction of silver resulted in the formation of metal nanoparticles in the film, which was evidenced by the evolution of the intense plasmon absorption band originating from silver. Scanning electron microscopy indicated that the particles formed in the multilayer films possessed good monodispersity and stability, thanks to the surrounding polymers. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy further confirmed the presence of the main components (such as DNA and metallic silver) of the nanocomposite films. In addition, we show that the size of the metal nanoparticles and the optical property of the film could be readily tuned by manipulating the assembly conditions.

EASTMAN-AQ/NIII MODIFIED ELECTRODE CHARACTERIZATION AND APPLICATION IN FLOW-INJECTION DETERMINATION OF CARBOHYDRATES AND AMINO-ACIDS

A novel Eastman-AQ/Ni(II) chemically modified electrode (CME) produced by "double coating step" deposition of a poly(ester sulphonic acid) polymer film and Ni2+-containing crystalline species onto glassy carbon instead of a metallic nickel electrode exhibited stable electrocatalytic oxidation of numerous alpha-hydrogen compounds including carbohydrates, amines and amino acids. In cyclic voltammetry, the electrocatalysis appeared with an irreversible anodic wave at +0.55 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The CME was adapted for constant-potential amperometric detection of these compounds in flow injection analysis. Using the CME, the linear response concentration range was between 1.0 x 10(-5) and 5.0 x 10(-2) mol/l and the detection limit was 5.0 x 10(-6) mol/l for glucose. The stability of the CME was adequate for routine quantitative application.

有机／无机杂化材料的自组装表征及应用

杂化的纳米尺寸的有机／无机化合物开辟了材料科学的新纪元。作为新型功能材料，杂化的有机／无机杂化材料由于在光学、电子、机械、防护涂层、催化、传感器、生物等方面有潜在的应用前景而在材料科学领域引起广泛关注。杂多酸（POMs）作为一种重要的无机化合物，有特异的纳米尺寸结构，优越的物理化学性质和广泛应用价值，因此多酸化合物功能材料的研究引起人们足够的重视。最近，人们把更多的注意力集中到杂化的有机／无机杂化材料范围内，如何更有序的组装杂多酸，因为它们有着更有趣的电、磁、氧化还原和光学性质。1．在4-氨基苯甲酸修饰的玻碳电极表面，我们用层层组装方法制备了六钒取代的理杂多酸（PW6V6）多层膜。表面等离子（SP）技术和循环伏安（CV）法对多层膜进行了表征。结果表明，多层膜生长均匀，平均厚度为2.8nm，并且研究了多层膜对亚硝酸根伽02一）和浪酸根（BrO3-）的催化还原活性。2．研究了通过静电吸附作用，P2W17Fe和QPvP-Os交替组装多层膜。循环伏安（CV），电化学交流阻抗谱（EIS）和紫外一可见光谱（UV－vis）研究结果表明了这种多层膜是均一稳定的。多层膜对H2O2，BrO3-和NO2-有很高的催化活性。特别是EIS成功地监测多层膜的形成过程。随着层数增长，电子传输阻抗Rc，线性增加，氧化还原电对Fe（CN）63/4的电子传输受到抑制，这进一步证实了多层膜的均一性。3，首次在4-氨基苯甲酸修饰的玻碳电极表面成功地构建了含杂多酸P2W15V3的多层膜。值得注意的是，该多层膜对BrO3-和NO2-的还原有显著的电催化活性，而且由于过渡金属钒在P2W15V3起催化作用而有很低的过电位。另外，多层膜中QPVP-O5聚合物的Os中心在抗坏血酸氧化时的催化活性仍然存在，而且通过最外层的调整，多巴胺和抗坏血酸能被分别检测，所以在多巴胺存在时它可用作检测抗坏血酸的电化学传感器。4．迄今为止，人们把更多的注意力集中在杂多酸多层膜的制备，电化学和电催化活性的研究，对杂多酸多层膜功能材料的研究却很少，我们首次够构造了发光的杂多酸多层膜，紫外可见光谱，循环伏安，电化学阻抗技术和荧光光谱证明多层膜生长均匀，室温下，多层膜的发光性能显示Eu3+的特征发射峰是5D0→7Fj（j=1，2，3，4）的跃迁。电化学阻抗谱被成功得应用于监测多层膜的沉积过程。我们发现随多层膜的逐步形成，半圆直径有规律地长大。而且，电荷迁移电阻Rc，随双层数线性增长。可以认为多层膜在基底电极上以非常均匀规律的方式沉积，Fe（CN）63/4氧化还原电对的氧化还原反应逐步被多层膜抑制。5．我们用层层组装方法成功构造了金纳米粒子多层膜，紫外可见光谱，循环伏安和原子力显微技术表征了多层膜的形成，金纳米粒子粒径大约14nm，表面粗糙度6.43nm。

水处理纳米材料的制备、性能及应用研究

工业的高速发展使地球上有限的水资源受到日益严重的污染，去除水中的有毒、有害化学物质已成为环保领域的一项重要工作。纳米材料与技术的开发应用为实现高效、低成本的水处理开辟了新的途径。 本课题组开发的纳米-亚纳米功能新材料（生态宝）可用作养殖生态环境改良剂，它对“三氮”、硫化物、CODCr、BOD5、重金属等有害物质具有很好的去除能力。生态宝用于养殖幼参，有显著的促生长、增加成活率的作用。生态宝用于养殖对虾，对虾体内重金属含量有明显降低。 以粉末状P25型纳米TiO2为光催化剂，系统的研究了它对染料AB80的光催化降解。在紫外光照射下，光催化反应75min，染料AB80溶液完全脱色，光催化反应135min，染料溶液完全矿化；AB80的光催化脱色反应遵从准一级反应动力学；催化剂的最佳剂量为1.0g/L。AB80在TiO2颗粒表面的吸附符合Langmuir方程式，随着pH值的增加吸附量迅速减少；pH值在反应中起着重要的作用，碱性溶液中的反应速度比酸性溶液的大，pH=10.0初始反应速度最大；电子捕获剂（H2O2）的加入能够显著的提高反应速率，H2O2浓度为5mmol/L时，反应速度变为原来的2.78倍。 以硅藻土为载体，采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了负载型的纳米TiO2，SEM分析结果表明，TiO2的包覆量对负载光催化剂的形貌有很大影响，TiO2包覆量较低(14.5%)的复合物无团聚现象发生。XRD分析结果表明，所制备的TiO2为锐钛矿和金红石混晶型，平均粒径11nm。FT-IR分析结果表明，TiO2和硅藻土之间没有生成化学键。以染料AB80和B-2BF为模型污染物，利用制备的光催化剂复合物进行了吸附-光催化试验，结果表明，TiO2包覆量为14.5%的复合物具有较高的吸附-光催化活性，对模型污染物的降解效果好于德国Degussa公司的商品纳米P25-TiO2。溶液pH对TiO2/硅藻土复合物光催化活性影响很大，弱酸性条件有利于反应的进行。TiO2/硅藻土对实际印染废水有较好的降解效果，试验条件下，废水光催化反应3.5h，色度去除率为100%。研究了液固多相光催化反应的催化剂失活原因及再生手段，提出TiO2/硅藻土复合物再生的方法为酸洗和高温烧结。对于模拟印染废水来说，光催化剂重复使用对光催化活性几乎没有影响，重复使用15次后，催化活性仅降低了12%。而对实际印染废水来说，重复使用对光催化活性有影响，光催化剂复合物重复使用7次后，催化活性降低了41%。TiO2/硅藻土复合光催化剂成本低，简便易行，光催化效果好，有望在环境污染物治理中得到广泛的应用。 采用CuCl水解法制得了硅藻土负载的纳米Cu2O，并利用XRD、SEM等手段对其进行表征。研究了负载的纳米Cu2O对B-2BF和AB80染料废水的光催化降解，发现纳米Cu2O经过负载后，团聚减少，分散性好，对染料废水的光催化降解效率成倍增长。纳米Cu2O包覆量为31.3%的光催化剂复合物光催化活性最好，其光催化效率是纯的Cu2O的6倍。负载的纳米Cu2O可以有效的利用太阳光进行光催化反应，而且太阳光下纳米Cu2O的光催化活性比纳米TiO2的强。太阳能是取之不尽、用之不竭的清洁能源，利用太阳能来处理染料废水成本低、无污染，是一种非常有发展前景的环境治理新技术。pH 5-pH 7是负载纳米Cu2O光催化降解B-2BF的最佳反应范围。负载的纳米Cu2O光催化剂有较好的稳定性，重复使用8次以后，其脱色率仍能达到75%以上。

Application of Similarity Theory to the Characterization of Non-Transferred Laminar Plasma Jet Generation

Laminar-flow non-transferred DC plasma jets were generated by a torch with an inter-electrode insert by which the arc column was limited to a length of about 20 mm. Current–voltage characteristics, thermal efficiency and jet length, a parameter which changes greatly with the generating parameters in contrast with the almost unchangeable jet length of the turbulent plasma, were investigated systematically, by using the similarity theory combined with the corresponding experimental examination. Formulae in non-dimensional forms were derived for predicting the characteristics of the laminar plasma jet generation, within the parameter ranges where no transfer to turbulent flow occurs. Mean arc temperature in the torch channel and mean jet-flow temperature at the torch exit were obtained, and the results indicate that the thermal conductivity feature of the working gas seems to be an important factor affecting thermal efficiency of laminar plasma generation.

Optimization and characterization of the guest-host polyetherketone polymer films for application in integrated optical devices

In order to optimize the loading of 3-(1, 1-dicyanothenyl)-1-phenyl-4, 5-dihydro-1H-pryazole (DCNP) in polyetherketone (PEK-c) guest-host polymer films, ten kinds of DCNP/PEK-c thin films, in which the weight per cent of DCNP changes from 5 to 50, were prepared. Their second-order nonlinear optical coefficients chi(33)((2)) at 1064 nm were measured by Using Maker fringe method after poling under the optimal poling condition. Their optical waveguide transmission losses were measured at 632.8 nm. Optimal weight per cent of the chromophore for the DCNP/PEK-c guest-host polymer system has been determined as about 20 for use in the integrated optical devices.
