Electrocatalytic Reduction of CO2 to Ethylene by Molecular Cu‐Complex Immobilized on Graphitized Mesoporous Carbon

The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO₂) to hydrocarbons is a challenging task because of the issues in controlling the efficiency and selectivity of the products. Among the various transition metals, copper has attracted attention as it yields more reduced and C2 products even while using mononuclear copper center as catalysts. In addition, it is found that reversible formation of copper nanoparticle acts as the real catalytically active site for the conversion of CO₂ to reduced products. Here, it is demonstrated that the dinuclear molecular copper complex immobilized over graphitized mesoporous carbon can act as catalysts for the conversion of CO₂ to hydrocarbons (methane and ethylene) up to 60%. Interestingly, high selectivity toward C2 product (40% faradaic efficiency) is achieved by a molecular complex based hybrid material from CO₂ in 0.1 m KCl. In addition, the role of local pH, porous structure, and carbon support in limiting the mass transport to achieve the highly reduced products is demonstrated. Although the spectroscopic analysis of the catalysts exhibits molecular nature of the complex after 2 h bulk electrolysis, morphological study reveals that the newly generated copper cluster is the real active site during the catalytic reactions.     

采用轮廓特征匹配的红外-可见光视频自动配准

为了精确地配准近平面场景下的红外-可见光视频序列,本文提出了一种基于轮廓特征匹配的自动配准方法,通过迭代匹配目标轮廓特征来解决异源图像中配准特征的提取和匹配难题。首先,采用运动目标检测技术获取目标轮廓,并由曲率尺度空间(CSS)角点检测算法提取轮廓特征点。此后,建立全局形状上下文描述子和局部边缘方向直方图描述子描述特征,从而实现可靠的特征匹配。来自不同时刻的匹配点对被保存在一个基于高斯距离准则的特征匹配库中。最后,为了克服近平面场景中目标深度变化的影响,本文结合前景样本随机抽样策略计算配准矩阵的损失函数,完成对全局配准矩阵的更新。在LITIV数据库上对方法进行实验验证,结果表明本文方法的配准精度优于当前先进的对比方法,在9个测试视频上的平均重叠率误差仅为0.194,与对比方法相比下降了18.5%。基本满足了近平面场景下红外-可见光视频序列配准的精度要求,且具有较高的鲁棒性。

Covalent Immobilization of Tyrosinase on Electrospun Polyacrylonitrile/Polyurethane/Poly(m-anthranilic acid) Nanofibers: An Electrochemical Impedance Study

Polyacrylonitrile/polyurethane/poly(m-anthranilic acid) nanofibers were fabricated by electrospinning. Tyrosinase immobilization was performed by EDC/N-hydroxyl succinimide activation. Covalent binding of tyrosinase onto nanofibers was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflectance, and bicinchoninic acid assay revealed the amount of enzyme. Nanofiber morphology and composition were characterized by scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Nanofibers became smoother and thicker after tyrosinase immobilization. Effects of enzyme on nanofibers were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the data were fitted to equivalent electrical circuit model. EDX-mapping showed uniform distribution of enzyme. The solution resistance and charge transfer resistance of nanofibers decreased after enzyme immobilization.     

Compilation of Modern Technologies To Map Genome-Wide Cytosine Modifications in DNA

Over the past few decades, various DNA modification detection methods have been developed; many of the high-resolution methods are based on bisulfite treatment, which leads to DNA degradation, to a degree. Thus, novel bisulfite-free approaches have been developed in recent years and shown to be useful for epigenome analysis in otherwise difficult-to-handle, but important, DNA samples, such as hmC-seal and hmC-CATCH. Herein, an overview of advances in the development of epigenome sequencing methods for these important DNA modifications is provided.

Simple Sequence Repeat Markers in Genetic Divergence and Marker-Assisted Selection of Rice Cultivars: A Review

Sequencing of rice genome has facilitated the understanding of rice evolution and has been utilized extensively for mining of DNA markers to facilitate marker-assisted breeding. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers that are tandemly repeated nucleotide sequence motifs flanked by unique sequences are presently the maker of choice in rice improvement due to their abundance, co-dominant inheritance, high levels of allelic diversity, and simple reproducible assay. The current level of genome coverage by SSR markers in rice is sufficient to employ them for genotype identification and marker-assisted selection in breeding for mapping of genes and quantitative trait loci analysis. This review provides comprehensive information on the mapping and applications of SSR markers in investigation of rice cultivars to study their genetic divergence and marker-assisted selection of important agronomic traits.     

Combination of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and nonlinear methods to analyze the copolymerization of phosphonic acid derivatives

We demonstrate in this study that the combination of modern inline monitoring methods [here: inline nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)] with simulations gains more exact and profound kinetic results than previously used methods like linearization without that combination. The ¹H-NMR spectroscopic data (more than 100 data points) are used to construct the copolymerization diagram. The reactivity ratios are obtained applying the van Herks nonlinear least square method. The examination of the radical copolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) with (2-{[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)prop-2-en-1-yl]oxy}ethyl) phosphonic acid (ECPPA) as important adhesive monomer used in dentistry yields reactivity ratios of r_HEMA = 1.83; r_ECPPA = 0.42. The copolymerization diagram reflects nonideal, non-azeotropic copolymerization. The sequence distribution of the obtained by Monte Carlo simulation indicates the generation of statistical copolymers. As an important finding, it is demonstrated that the repeating units responsible for etching and adhesion are arranged over the whole polymer chain, which is necessary to achieve proper functionality. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
