On the meaning of integration in coastal zone management

This paper discusses the definition and use of the term ‘integrated management’ in the context of coastal and ocean resources. It identifies several components which appear to be needed to establish an integrated management system for a large area subject to multiple use and jurisdiction. It suggests that the basis of integrated management should be a clear articulation of common purpose which addresses long term needs and vision. Once developed, this common purpose should be securely established to provide the setting against which sectoral and agencies managers and the community conduct and co-ordinate their activities.

High performance cocktail functional monomer for making molecule imprinting polymer

In order to make a molecule imprinting polymer (MIP) with highly chiral selectivity against N-t-Boc-L-Trp, a new kind of "cocktail" functional monomer: acrylamide+2-vinylpyridine was investigated. The MIP showed impressive chiral selectivity (alpha=3.23). With the increasing of water content in the mobile phase, ionic and hydrophobic interaction were found to be responsible for the chiral recognition process instead of the hydrogen bond. Tailing and peak asymmetry problems were overcome by using linear gradient elution. Physical properties such as thermal stability and pore structure for the MIP were also investigated.

New cocktail functional monomers in making molecule imprinting polymer with high chiral selectivity

in order td produce molecule imprinting polymer (MIP) with high chiral selectivity against N-c-protected amino acid, new cocktail functional monomers acrylamide (AM) + 2-vinylpyridine (2-VP) and AM + methacrylic acid (MAA) were investigated. AM + 2-VP was found to be more efficient in improving the selectivity and resolution of the molecule imprinting polymer.
