Development of nanocomposites based on organically modified montmorillonite and plasticized PVC with improved barrier properties 下载免费PDF全文
Montmorillonite (MMT) was organically modified with tributyl citrate (TBC). Organoclays (OMMTs) were processed with diisononyl phthalate (DINP)‐plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to form polymer nanocomposites. The produced composite materials showed a contradictory change in properties to that expected of a layered silicate nanocomposite, with a decreased E‐modulus and increased gas permeability compared with a material without OMMT. It was experimentally shown that the TBC modifier was extracted from the OMMT and was dispersed in the PVC/DINP matrix, whereupon the OMMT collapsed and formed micrometer‐sized agglomerates. Further investigation revealed that TBC has a significant effect on the gas permeability and the E‐modulus, even at low additions to a DINP‐plasticized PVC. A PVC nanocomposite with the TBC acting as both the OM for MMT and as the primary plasticizer was produced. This material showed a significantly increased E‐modulus as well as a decrease in gas permeability, confirming that it is possible to develop a nanocomposite based on plasticized PVC, if both the organo‐modification of the MMT and the formulation of the matrix are carefully selected. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We describe a new approach to measuring DNA hybridization using surface plasmon-coupled emission (SPCE). Excited fluorophores are known to couple with surface oscillations of electrons in thin metal films, typically 50 nm thick silver on a glass prism. These surface plasmons then radiate into the glass at a sharply defined angle determined by the emission wavelength and the optical properties of the glass and metal. This radiation has the same spectral profile as the emission spectrum of the fluorophores. We studied the emission due to Cy3-labeled DNA oligomers bound to complementary unlabeled oligomers which were themselves bound to the metal surface. Hybridization resulted in SPCE due to Cy3-DNA into the prism. Directional SPCE was observed whether the sample was illuminated from the sample side or through the glass substrate at the surface plasmon angle for the excitation wavelength. A large fraction of the total potential emission is coupled to the surface plasmons resulting in improved sensitivity. When illuminated through the prism at the surface plasmon angle, the sensitivity is increased due to the enhanced intensity of the resonance evanescent field. It is known that SPCE depends on proximity to the silver surface. As a result, changes in emission intensity are observed due to fluorophore localization even if hybridization does not affect the quantum yield of the fluorophore. The use of SPCE resulted in suppression of interfering emission from a noncomplementary Cy5-DNA oligomers due to weaker coupling of the more distant fluorophores with the surface plasmons. We expect SPCE to have numerous applications to nucleic acid analysis and for the measurement of bioaffinity reactions. 相似文献

In this paper, with the use of Euler‐Lagrange formalism, it has been proven which joint variables can influence entries of the inertia matrix and the gravity vector of dynamics of a manipulator relative to the kinematic structure of the manipulator. Some formulas, alternative to well‐known ones, are presented that allow us to compute the inertia matrix and the gravity vector without using a trace operator. These formulas are computationally inexpensive and provide an inspiration for interesting interpretations. Complexity indices are defined that are able to evaluate the complexity of dynamics of manipulators based on their kinematics. A key role of the accumulated pseudoinertia matrix of the manipulator has been shown. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The effect of the isoflavone, genistein, on the lipid metabolism of ovariectomized rats was studied. Three types of experiments were performed. In the first one, the rats were fed diets supplemented with 0.01 or 0.1% of genistein for 14 days. In the second and third experiments, the direct effect of genistein on the liver and fat tissue were measured respectively by means of liver perfusion or incubation of isolated adipocytes with the isoflavone. Genistein in food significantly decreased blood serum and muscle triglyceride concentrations and increased the level of free fatty acids in serum. Serum free cholesterol was diminished and liver cholesterol was enhanced after genistein ingestion. When genistein acted directly on the liver during perfusion, a smaller incorporation of 14C-glucose into lipids was observed, and in parallel a greater output of free fatty acids into the medium was noticed. These changes were accompanied by diminution of the liver triglyceride contents. Genistein, acting on the adipocytes strongly depressed both basal and insulin-induced lipid synthesis, when glucose was used as a substrate. The effect of the isoflavone alone on the lipolysis in the adipocytes was negligible. However, it intensified lipolysis induced by epinephrine. The results obtained let us conclude that genistein in food can reduce the fattening processes in ovariectomized rats. This effect of genistein may be attributed, at least in part, to its direct influence on lipid metabolism in the liver and adipose tissue. 相似文献

Resveratrol is a biologically active diphenolic compound exerting multiple beneficial effects in the organism, including anti-diabetic properties. This action is, however, not fully elucidated. In the present study, we examined effects of resveratrol on some parameters related to insulin signaling, and also on diabetes-associated dysregulation in Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats with congenital type 2 diabetes. Resveratrol was given at the dose of 20 mg/kg b.w. for 10 weeks. It was shown that the expression and phosphorylation levels of insulin receptor in the skeletal muscle of GK rats were significantly decreased, compared with control animals. However, these changes were totally prevented by resveratrol. Liver expression of the insulin receptor was also reduced, but in this case, resveratrol was ineffective. Resveratrol was also demonstrated to significantly influence parameters of insulin binding (dissociation constant and binding capacity) in the skeletal muscle and liver. Moreover, it was shown that the expression levels of proteins related to intracellular glucose transport (GLUT4 and TUG) in adipose tissue of GK rats were significantly decreased. However, treatment with resveratrol completely abolished these changes. Resveratrol was found to induce normalization of TUG expression in the skeletal muscle. Blood levels of insulin and GIP were elevated, whereas proinsulin and GLP-1 diminished in GK rats. However, concentrations of these hormones were not affected by resveratrol. These results indicate that resveratrol partially ameliorates diabetes-associated dysregulation in GK rats. The most relevant finding covers the normalization of the insulin receptor expression in the skeletal muscle and also GLUT4 and TUG in adipose tissue. 相似文献

In this paper, a new method is proposed of solving the inverse kinematic problem for robot manipulators whose kinematics are allowed to possess singularities. The method is based upon the so-called generalized Newton algorithm, introduced by S. Smale, and can be adopted to both nonredundant and redundant kinematics. Moreover, given a pair of points in the external space of a manipulator, the method is capable of generating a minimum-length trajectory joining the points (a geodesic), in particular a straight-line trajectory. Results of representative computer experiments, including those with the PUMA 560 kinematics, are reported in order to illustrate the performance of the method. 相似文献

In this paper a computationally simple form of the generalized Campbell–Baker–Hausdorff–Dynkin formula (GCBHD) is given. Simplifications arise from both combinatorial (explicit) as well as algorithmic (implicit) arguments. On generating the Ph. Hall basis in a special form, and introducing a specific structure representation of the vector field, vector fields appearing in GCBHD are automatically transformed into the reduced Ph. Hall basis. The formula can be exploited in nonholonomic motion planning what is illustrated with examples. 相似文献

Fluorescein is a widely used fluorescent probe in DNA analysis. One difficulty with fluorescein is its self-quenching due to resonance energy transfer between the residues, which results in decreased intensities with increasing labeling density. We examined the emission spectral properties of DNA oligomers labeled with one or five fluorescein residues. The emission intensity of the more highly labeled oligomer was decreased due to self-quenching. The self-quenching was mostly eliminated when this oligomer was held approximately 90 A from the surface of metallic silver particles. The intensities increased 7- and 19-fold for the oligomers with one or five fluoresceins, respectively. The increased intensity did not result in increased photobleaching. These results suggest the use of substrates coated with silver particles for increased sensitivity on DNA arrays or for DNA analysis. 相似文献
