Synthesis of 2‐hydroxypropyl dimethylbenzylammonium N,O‐(2‐carboxyethyl) chitosan chloride and its antibacterial activity

N,O‐(2‐carboxyethyl)chitosan (N,O‐2‐CEC) was prepared from chitosan with 3‐chloropropionic acid as modifying agent and NaOH as binding‐acid agent. 2‐Hydroxypropyl dimethylbenzylammonium N,O‐(2‐carboxyethyl) chitosan chloride (HPDMBA‐CEC) was obtained by the reaction of N,O‐2‐CEC with glycidyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride (GDMBA) using NaOH as catalyst. The structures of chitosan derivatives were characterized by FTIR, ¹H NMR, and gel permeation chromatography. The antimicrobial activity of HPDMBA‐CEC was evaluated against a Gram‐negative bacterium Escherichia coli (E.coli) and a Gram‐positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Compared with CTS, N,O‐2‐CEC, and HPDMBA‐CTS, HPDMBA‐CEC had much stronger antimicrobial activity, and this activity increased with increasing substitution degree of quaternary ammonium group (DQ). When the substitution degree of carboxyethylation (DS of CE) was 0.72 and DQ was 0.60, the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of HPDMBA‐CEC were 3.1 and 6.3 μg/mL against S. aureus and E. coli, respectively. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

氮素水平对甜菜主要营养的影响

甜菜植株含氮量与施氮量呈极显著正相关，生育中前期氮的分配以叶部为主，其后氮向根的分配率增加，但高氮处理到生育后期氮对叶部的分配率仍处于较高水平，不利于产量形成和糖分积累。甜菜植株磷、钾含量与施氮量呈极显著正相关，氮与磷、钾表现出明显的互作效应。     

Prediction of substructure and toxicity of pesticides with temperature constrained-cascade correlation network from low-resolution mass spectra.

Artificial neural networks are trained to predict the toxicity or active substructures of organophosphorus pesticides and then are applied to screening GC/MS data for environmentally hazardous compounds. Every mass spectral scan in the chromatographic run is classified, and separate chromatograms are obtained for either toxicity or substructure classes. Classification of mass spectra allows the detection of chromatographic peaks from potentially hazardous compounds that may be missing from the reference database. The neural network models predict substructures and toxicity from mass spectra without first determining the complete configurational structure of the pesticides. Temperature constrained-cascade correlation networks (TCCCN) were used because they are self-configuring networks that train rapidly and robustly. The toxicity classes are defined by the World Health Organization, and the substructure classes are standard organophosphorus pesticide groupings. The TCCCN models are used to mathematically resolve peaks in the chromatograms by substructure and toxicity. Evaluations yielded classification rates of 97 and 84% for substructure and toxicity, respectively.

1.8-THz bandwidth, zero-frequency error, tunable optical combgenerator for DWDM applications

We report on the experimental realization of a simple optical comb generator, based on phase modulation within an amplified fiber loop, which offers exact referencing to an arbitrary supplied reference frequency and tunable comb-line spacing. At a reference wavelength of 1529 nm up to 103 comb lines within a 40-dB power envelope were generated with spacings adjustable from 1 to 25 GHz, limited only by the bandwidth of the phase modulator     

抗日战争时期国统区粮食库券述略

介绍了1941～1943年期间国民政府发行粮食库券的经过及其有关制度和承诺。认为用粮食库券征购粮食,对保障战时军粮民食的供应和抑制恶性通货膨胀都起了积极作用,但国民政府没有兑现关于粮食库券到期还本付息的承诺,粮食库券实际上成了一种"掠夺"性质的无信用的国债。     

Numerical Study on Bubble Formation of a Gas‐Liquid Flow in a T‐Junction Microchannel

Bubble emergence in a gas‐liquid flow in a T‐junction microchannel of 100 μm diameter, operated under a squeezing regime, was simulated with the computational fluid dynamics method. In general, bubble formation in channels includes three stages: expansion, collapse and pinching off. After analyzing and comparing quantitatively the three forces of pressure, surface tension and shear stress acting on the gas thread in the whole process, their effects in the different stages were identified. The collapse stage was the most important for bubble formation and was investigated in detail. It was found that the collapse process was mostly influenced by the liquid superficial velocity, and the rate and time of collapse can be correlated with empirical equations including the liquid superficial velocity, the capillary number and the Reynolds number.     

Preparation and characterization of star-shaped nylon 6 with high flowability

Three kinds of star-shaped nylon 6 samples with different branched-chain length were prepared by the hydrolytic polymerization of ε-caprolactam using trimesinic acid as trifunctional reactant. The structure of prepared star-shaped nylons was characterized by infrared spectroscopy and ¹H-NMR. Compared with linear-chain nylon 6, star-shaped nylons with the equivalent molecular weight present higher melt flow indices and lower relative viscosities due to decreased molecular dimensions and reduced hydrogen bond interactions between neighboring molecules. The molecular weights of the products were determined by end-group titration and ¹H-NMR, and the molecular weight distributions (MWDs) were evaluated by gel permeation chromatography. The results show that the molecular weight decreased and the MWD narrowed as the concentration of trimesinic acid increased. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction patterns of star-shaped and linear-chain nylons show that increasing the concentration of trimesinic acid leads to good symmetry and high crystallizability, but this also degrades crystal perfection as observed using a polarized optical microscope. The viscosity of nylon 6 can be significantly reduced while maintaining its mechanical performance through the use of star-branching and an appropriate concentration of trimesinic acid.
