用二-2-乙基己基磷酸(HDEHP)做萃取剂,Na2CO3做反萃剂,234Th为示踪剂,完成了从盐酸溶液中液-液萃取Th(IV)的实验研究。在不同萃取条件下(包括HDEHP和Na2CO3溶液浓度、震荡时间、有机相和水相比值等)对234Th百分萃取(或反萃取)作了一系列实验。发现,随HDEHP浓度的增加,234Th的萃取效率明显增加。当HDEHP的浓度≥20%时,234Th的萃取效率>97%;用Na2CO3溶液能有效地从有机相中反萃出234Th,当Na2CO3溶液的浓度≥0.5mol/L时,234Th的反萃效率>96%;反萃时,震荡周期长于4min时,两相能达到反萃平衡;随有机相和水相比值的增加,234Th的萃取效率也明显地增加,在合适的萃取条件下,有机相与水相比值≥4:1时,高达97%的234Th进入有机相。

液-液萃取从Th中分离Ac

用234Th、228Ac和139Ce+3做示踪剂,二(2-乙基己基)磷酸做萃取剂,研究了初始HNO3浓度对234Th、228Ac和139Ce+3萃取效率的影响。发现在广泛的酸度范围内,234Th均能被定量地萃取;当HNO3浓度大于2.0mol/L时,228Ac和139Ce3+的萃取效率下降到2%以下。研究了震荡时间对234Th萃取效率的影响,数据显示,1min便可达到萃取平衡。从含大量钍的溶液中分离痕量Ac的实验结果显示,用二(2-乙基己基)磷酸-苯的萃取流程,可使Ac与大量的钍分离,同时Ac的损失又较小。

Production cross section of Th-236 in the interaction of U-238 with 60 MeV/u O-18 ions

The neutron-rich target-like isotope Th-236 has been produced in the U-238-2p multinucleon transfer reaction between a 60 MeV/u O-18 beam and natural U-238 targets. The activities of thorium were determined after radiochemical separation of Th from the mixture of uranium and reaction products. The Th-236 isotope was identified by the characteristic gamma-rays of 642.2, 687.6 and 229.6 keV. The production cross section of Th-236 was determined to be 250 +/- 50 mu b.

Knocking-Down Cyclin A(2) by siRNA Suppresses Apoptosis and Switches Differentiation Pathways in K562 Cells upon Administration with Doxorubicin

Cyclin A(2) is critical for the initiation of DNA replication, transcription and cell cycle regulation. Cumulative evidences indicate that the deregulation of cyclin A(2) is tightly linked to the chromosomal instability, neoplastic transformation and tumor proliferation. Here we report that treatment of chronic myelogenous leukaemia K562 cells with doxorubicin results in an accumulation of cyclin A(2) and follows by induction of apoptotic cell death. To investigate the potential preclinical relevance, K562 cells were transiently transfected with the siRNA targeting cyclin A(2) by functionalized single wall carbon nanotubes. Knocking down the expression of cyclin A(2) in K562 cells suppressed doxorubicin-induced growth arrest and cell apoptosis. Upon administration with doxorubicin, K562 cells with reduced cyclin A(2) showed a significant decrease in erythroid differentiation, and a small fraction of cells were differentiated along megakaryocytic and monocyte-macrophage pathways. The results demonstrate the pro-apoptotic role of cyclin A(2) and suggest that cyclin A(2) is a key regulator of cell differentiation.

The role of redox property of La2-x(Sr,Th)(x)CuO4 +/-lambda playing in the reaction of NO decomposition and NO reduction by CO

Two systems of mixed oxides, La2-xSrxCuO4 +/- lambda (0.0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 1.0) and La(2-x)Tn(x)CuO(4 +/-) (lambda) (0.0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.4), with K2NiF4 structure were prepared. The average valence of Cu ions and oxygen nonstoichiometry (lambda) were determined by means of chemical analysis. Meanwhile, the adsorption and activation of nitrogen monoxide (NO) and the mixture of NO + CO over the mixed oxide catalysts were studied by means of mass spectrometry temperature-programmed desorption (MS-TPD). The catalytic behaviors in the reactions of direct decomposition of NO and its reduction by CO were investigated, and were discussed in relation with average valence of Cu ions, A and the activation and adsorption of reactant molecules. It has been proposed that both reactions proceed by the redox mechanism, in which the oxygen vacancies and the lower-valent Cu ions play important roles in the individual step of the redox cycle. Oxygen vacancy is more significant for NO decomposition than for NO + CO reaction. For the NO + CO reaction, the stronger implication of the lower-valent Cu ions or oxygen vacancy depends on reaction temperature and the catalytic systems (Sr- or Th-substituted).
