EFFECT OF PH ON THE ELECTRON-TRANSFER OF CYTOCHROME-C ON A GOLD ELECTRODE MODIFIED WITH BIS(4-PYRIDYL)DISULPHIDE

The adsorption of bis(4-pyridyl)disulphide (PySSPy) and 4.4'-bipyridyl (PyPy) on a gold electrode was studied using cyclic voltammetry. The adsorption isotherms and equilibrium constants (1 X 10(6) mol-1 l for PyPy and 6 x 10(6) Mol-1 l for PySSPy) were determined. The effect of pH on the electrochemical behaviour of cytochrome c was studied on the PySSPy-modified gold electrode. The results show that cytochrome c can only transfer electrons on a deprotonated electrode surface. When the pH is decreased, the standard heterogeneous rate constant of cytochrome c on the modified gold electrode decreases and the electrochemical behaviour changes from a quasi-reversible to an irreversible process.

A STUDY ABOUT PH CHEMICALLY MODIFIED ELECTRODES BASED ON AMINO-DERIVATIVES OF NAPHTHALENE

The electrochemical polymerization of amino-derivatives of naphthalene has been studied on the platinum wire electrodes. The effects of acidity of the modifying media and the potential scan rate on the cyclic voltammograms are verified. As potentiometric pH sensors, the electrodes prepared from 1-naphthylamine and 2,3-diaminonaphthalene showed performance characteristics superior to some other electrodes tested. The electrode modified with 1-naphthylamine in the optimum medium showed a nearly Nernstian response of 4.20-13.70 pH and a slope of -54.8 mV/pH, while the linear range of the electrode prepared by 2,3-diaminonaphthalene was 4.00-13.60 pH, with a slope of -52.4 mV/pH.

稀土与L-苯丙氨酸配合物的pH电位法及量热滴定法研究

LIQUID-CHROMATOGRAPHY WITH ELECTROCATALYTIC DETECTION OF CYSTEINE, N-ACETYLCYSTEINE AND GLUTATHIONE BY A PRUSSIAN BLUE FILM-MODIFIED ELECTRODE

Chemically modified electrodes prepared by adsorbing prussian blue on a glassy carbon electrode are shown to catalyse the electro-oxidation of cysteine, N-acetylcysteine and glutathione in acidic media. The catalytic response is evaluated with respect to the potential scan rate, the solution pH, the concentration dependence, and other variables. Covering the electrode with Nafion(R) film improved the stability and reproducibility in liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection to the extent that repetitive sample injections produced relative standard deviations of less than 5% over several hours of operation. The limit of detection was 4 pmol for cysteine, 33 pmol for glutathione and 61 pmol for N-acetylcysteine.

Identification, Characterization, and Molecular Application of a Virulence-Associated Autotransporter from a Pathogenic Pseudomonas fluorescens Strain

A gene, pfa1, encoding an autotransporter was cloned from a pathogenic Pseudomonas fluorescens strain, TSS, isolated from diseased fish. The expression of pfa1 is enhanced during infection and is regulated by growth phase and growth conditions. Mutation of pfa1 significantly attenuates the overall bacterial virulence of TSS and impairs the abilities of TSS in biofilm production, interaction with host cells, modulation of host immune responses, and dissemination in host blood. The putative protein encoded by pfa1 is 1,242 amino acids in length and characterized by the presence of three functional domains that are typical for autotransporters. The passenger domain of PfaI contains a putative serine protease (Pap) that exhibits apparent proteolytic activity when expressed in and purified from Escherichia coli as a recombinant protein. Consistent with the important role played by PfaI in bacterial virulence, purified recombinant Pap has a profound cytotoxic effect on cultured fish cells. Enzymatic analysis showed that recombinant Pap is relatively heat stable and has an optimal temperature and pH of 50 degrees C and pH 8.0. The domains of PfaI that are essential to autotransporting activity were localized, and on the basis of this, a PfaI-based autodisplay system (named AT1) was engineered to facilitate the insertion and transport of heterologous proteins. When expressed in E. coli, AT1 was able to deliver an integrated Edwardsiella tarda immunogen (Et18) onto the surface of bacterial cells. Compared to purified recombinant Et18, Et18 displayed by E. coli via AT1 induced significantly enhanced immunoprotection.

Identification and characterization of a virulence-associated protease from a pathogenic Pseudomonas fluorescens strain

Pseudomonas fluorescens is an aquaculture pathogen that can infect a number of fish species. The virulence mechanisms of aquatic P. fluorescens remain largely unknown. Many P. fluorescens strains are able to secrete an extracellular protease called AprX, yet no AprX-like proteins have been identified in pathogenic P. fluorescens associated with aquaculture. In this study, a gene encoding an AprX homologue was cloned from TSS, a pathogenic A fluorescens strain isolated from diseased fish. In TSS, AprX is secreted into the extracellular milieu, and the production of AprX is controlled by growth phase and calcium. Mutation of aprX has multiple effects, which include impaired abilities in interaction with cultured host cells, adherence to host mucus, modulation of host immune response, and dissemination and survival in host tissues and blood. Purified recombinant AprX exhibits apparent proteolytic activity, which is optimal at pH 8.0 and 50 degrees C. The protease activity of recombinant AprX is enhanced by Ca2+ and Zn2+ and reduced by Co2+. Cytotoxicity analyses showed that purified recombinant AprX has profound toxic effect on cultured fish cells. These results demonstrate that AprX is an extracellular metalloprotease that is involved in bacterial virulence. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

评价水产动物生长性能的生理生化指标和分子生物学指标

以奥利亚罗非鱼(Oreochromis aureus)为实验对象，设计了3种不同的摄食类型，分别是鲜活饵料组、饥饿3周后饱食投喂组和人工饲料组。鲜活饵料组投喂冰冻赤子爱胜蚓，利用蚯蚓体内丰富的营养成分和活性物质，以期获得奥利亚罗非鱼良好的生长状况；饥饿后饱食组是指饥饿3周后，以人工饲料饱食投喂2周，用于研究饥饿与补偿生长获得快速生长时血液理化指标的变化情况；人工饲料组作为对照组。纯淡水条件下养殖，水温25±2℃。测定了奥利亚罗非鱼在3种摄食类型饲喂下某些血液生理生化指标变化的情况，并将指标变化情况与增重率做相关性分析，试图找出能够反映奥利亚罗非鱼生长性能的血液生理生化指标。 研究结果表明，奥利亚罗非鱼在饥饿3周后获得了补偿生长，补偿生长时的增重率和特定生长率显著高于人工饲料组(P<0.05)，高于鲜活饵料组，但差别不显著；相关性分析研究表明血清总蛋白、胆固醇、四碘甲状腺原氨酸（T4）与增重率极显著相关(P<0.01)，血红蛋白显著相关(P<0.05)，红细胞、白细胞、碱性磷酸酶高度相关(相关系数为0.580、0.551和0.557)，因此，建议血清总蛋白、胆固醇和血红蛋白可作为能够反映罗非鱼生长性能的新指标。 根据序列设计引物，PCR反应条件：变性温度：95 ℃，3 min；退火温度：57℃，20 sec；延伸温度：72℃，5 min，共36个循环，从牙鲆、黑鲪和鲈鱼中克隆出胰岛素样生长因子（IGF-Ⅰ）部分序列，首次证实了IGF-Ⅰ在3种海水鱼中的存在。 利用蛋氨酸与ZnSO4•7H2O，在pH 5.5、80℃下，反应1小时，采用蛋氨酸与硫酸锌2：1的配料比，合成出了产物蛋氨酸螯合锌，蛋氨酸螯合锌外观白色，粉状，室温下微溶于水，不溶于乙醇，并用原子吸收光谱法测定其含锌量为15%，螯合率为88.2%。

Spatial and temporal variations in pH and total alkalinity at the beginning of the rainy season in the Changjiang Estuary, China

The results of field observation carried out in May 2003 were used to examine pH and total alkalinity behaviors in the Changjiang Estuary. It was showed that PH and total alkalinity took on clear spatial variations in values with the minima in the low salinity region. Like salinity, transect distributions of PH and total alkalinity (TA) in a downriver direction had a sharp gradient each. These gradients appeared in such a sequence that the TA gradient was earlier than salinity and PH gradients, and the salinity gradient was earlier than the PH gradient. These distribution characteristics seemed to be strongly influenced by the mixing process of freshwater and seawater, for both PH and total alkalinity had significant linear relationships with salinity and temperature. For PH, phytoplankton activities also had a significant impact upon its spatial distribution. During a period of 48 h, PH and total alkalinity changed within wide ranges for every layer of the two anchor stations, namely, Stas 13 and 20, which were located at the mixed water mass and seawater mass, respectively. For both Stas 13 and 20, PH and TA fluctuation of every layer could be very wide during a 4 h period. As a whole, the data of the two anchor stations showed that neither variations in salinity and temperature nor phytoplankton activities were the main factors strongly influencing the total alkalinity temporal variability on a small time scale. The data of Sta. 20 implied that both salinity variation and phytoplankton activities had a significant influence on PH temporal variability, but the same conclusion could not be drawn from the data of Sta. 13.

ICP-MS测定表生水体稀土过程中pH值对酸性膦萃取稀土效率的影响

氢氧化铁胶体/水界面作用与地表水中稀土元素的分异—— pH控制机理的实验研究

实验研究了pH对REE水/粒界面配分行为的影响: 氢氧化铁胶体对REE的作用在胶体形成开始以吸附为主, 然后是解吸, 最后是吸附/解吸趋向平衡; 轻稀土元素(LREE)和重稀土元素(HREE)的吸附率不同, 后者大于前者. 随pH增加, LREE和HREE在氢氧化铁胶体/水之间产生分异, 其配分系数比值(DLREE/DHREE)降低; DREE的分布模式呈现Y的异常(DY/DHo<1)并在低pH条件下呈现明显的四重效应. 实验结果证明自然界中存在REE四重效应. 除pH外, 地表水的化学类型以及离子强度也是控制REE四重效应以及微粒吸附态REE和溶解态REE之间产生分异的重要因素.
