African origin of modern humans in East Asia: A tale of 12,000 Y chromosomes

To test the hypotheses of modern human origin in East Asia, we sampled 12,127 male individuals from 163 populations and typed for three Y chromosome biallelic markers (YAP, M89, and M130). All the individuals carried a mutation at one of the three sites.

Preparation of rare earth ion induced conformation-specific anti-calmodulin monoclonal antibody

Monoclonal antibody technique was employed to detect the conformational change of calmodulin induced by metal ions. Bovine calmodulin was firstly modified by 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene to improve its immunogenicity, then, the derived protein was saturated with trivalent europium ions and injected to Balb/c mice as antigen. After four times of immunization, a corresponding antibody was detected and its titer in serum was determined as 1 : 12 000. By fusing of the spleen cells with hybridoma cells, a europium induced conformation-specific anti-calmodulin monoclonal antibody cell strain named as 2C3 was produced successfully. The molecular recognition ability of antibody to apocalmodulin and holocalmodulin showed a significant difference, indicating that this antibody could be applied to the studies of different effects of metal ions on the conformational change of calmodulin and its interaction with target molecules.

Sol-gel-derived, polishable, 1 : 12-phosphomolybdic acid-modified ceramic-carbon electrode and its electrocatalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid

Novel ceramic-carbon electrodes (CCEs) containing 1:12-phosphomolybdic acid (PMo12) were constructed by homogeneously dispersing PMo12 and graphite powder into methyltrimethoxysilane-derived gel. Peak currents for the PMo12-doped CCE were surface-controlled at lower scan rates but diffusion-controlled at higher scan rates and peak potentials shifted to the negative potential direction with increasing pH. In addition, the electrode exhibited electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of ascorbic acid. The PMo12-modified CCE presented good chemical and mechanical stability and good surface renewability (ten successive polishing resulted in less than 5% relative standard deviation).

Sol-gel-derived carbon ceramic composite electrodes bulk-modified with 1 : 12-silicomolybdic acid

1:12-Silicomolybdic acid (SiMo12) doped carbon ceramic composite electrodes were fabricated by incorporating SiMo12 and graphite powder in a methyltrimethoxysilane-based gel and characterized by cyclic and square-wave voltammetry, It was demonstrated that the chemically modified electrodes were suitable for electrocatalytic reduction of bromate, The electrodes had the remarkable advantage of surface renewal owing to bulk modification, as web as simple preparation, good mechanical and chemical stability and reproducibility.

Characterization of 1:12 Phosphomolybdic Anions Doped Polypyrrole (PMo12/PPy) Film Electrode

1:12 phosphomolybdic anion doped polypyrrole film electrode was characterized by in-situ UV-vis spectroelectrochemistry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), scan electronic microscopy(SEM) and electron spin resonance(ESR) spectroscopy.

STUDY OF A 1/12 PHOSPHOMOLYBDIC ANION DOPED POLYPYRROLE FILM ELECTRODE AND ITS CATALYSIS

A phosphomolybdic anion doped polypyrrole (PMo12O403- + PPy) film electrode has been prepared by electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole in an aqueous solution of 0.5 mol l-1 H2SO4 or 0.5 mol l-1 KNO3 containing PMo12O403- anions, and characterized by scanning electron microscopy and in-situ UV-visible spectroelectrochemical methods. The film electrode obtained is very stable upon potential cycling in acidic solution, but not in neutral solution. The catalytic effect of the film electrode on the reduction of ClO3- and BrO3- was studied.

RESEARCHES ON CHEMICALLY MODIFIED ELECTRODES - ELECTROCHEMISTRY OF 1-12 PHOSPHOMOLYBDIC HETEROPOLY ANION FILM MODIFIED ELECTRODE

A monolayer of 1:12 phosphomolybdic anion (PMo_(12)) was modified electrochemically on a glassy carbon electrode and its electrochemical behavior was studied with cyclic voltammetry (CV). It is shown that PMo_(12) film is adsoibed strongly on the surface of glassy carbon electrodes, H~+ ions in the solution plays an important role in the electrochemical processes of PMo_(12) film modified electrodes, whereas other anions, such as Cl~-, NO_3~-, SO_4~(2-), ClO_4~- and PO_4~(3-) etc., do not take par...

化学修饰电极的研究——1:12磷钼杂多阴离子薄膜修饰电极的电化学性质

自从化学修饰电极问世以来,在电极反应过程、电极效应以及扩展修饰薄膜类型方面进展较快。目前研究较多的是聚合物薄膜修饰电极,由于结构和化学性能的特点,对无机物修饰电极的研究也已引起重视。杂多酸具有很好的氧化还原性能,而且可通过改变化学组成的方法使杂多酸的氧化还原电位在很宽范围内变动。杂多酸可发生多电子还原反应形成“杂多蓝”,所以杂多酸或其盐类修饰在电极上有可能发生电催化和电色效应。目前杂多酸修饰电极的报道甚少。本文研
