两种方法提取琉璃苣叶多糖的理化性质 及生理活性

本研究旨在制备两种琉璃苣叶水溶性多糖，进一步探究其结构特征，并评价其降血糖、抗癌和免疫活性。采用纤维素酶辅助提取（BLP-1）和微波辅助提取法（BLP-2）制备琉璃苣叶水溶性多糖，并比较了BLP-1和BLP-2的理化性质，通过分析α-葡萄糖苷酶和α-淀粉酶的抑制效果来评价BLP-1和BLP-2的降血糖活性，通过检测HepG2、MX-1和A549细胞的抑制率来评价抗癌活性，通过检测RAW246.7的免疫因子分泌来评价免疫活性。结果表明，BLP-1和BLP-2具有不同的多糖和蛋白质含量。BLP-1和BLP-2由阿拉伯糖（Ara）、半乳糖（Gal）、葡萄糖（Glc）、木糖（Xyl）组成，但摩尔比组成不同，其分子量分别为20.1和22.6KDa。热重分析（TGA）表明BLP-2比BLP-1具有更稳定的结构。这两种多糖具有抑制α-葡萄糖苷酶和α-淀粉酶活性、抑制HepG-2、A549和MX-1癌细胞增殖以及激活巨噬细胞RAW 264.7细胞分泌免疫细胞因子以介导细胞免疫反应的潜力。两种多糖可作为新功能食品和医药产品中的生物活性成分，为进一步研究两种多糖的构效关系提供了理论依据。     

振动剪切作用下聚合物熔体的非仿射网络结构模型 Ⅱ．非仿射网络结构模型

假设聚合物熔体的缠结网络形变是非仿射的，运用瞬态网络结构原理，采用在本课题第一部分^[1]中所建立的动态速率方程，并对上随体Maxwell本构方程加以修正来建立一个非仿射网络结构模型，利用这一模型来研究振动剪切作用下LDPE熔体的流变行为，研究表明，随着应变振幅和频率的增加，LDPE熔体的剪切应力也增加，同时指出了非仿射网络结构模型的精确变比仿射结构模型有较大提高，这表明在振动力场作用下，网络形变发生了非仿射形变，因此在建立振动力场作用下聚烯烃熔体本构方程时，不能假设其网络是仿射形变的。     

Prediction of DNA-binding regulatory proteins in bacteriophage T7

The high-resolution structure of several specific DNA-bindingproteins have been determined, and they display a common structuralmotif which mediates their binding to DNA. This motif consistsof two -helices connected by a sharp turn, and its amino acidsequence has several distinguishing features. A computer searchof the proteins coded by the genome of bacteriophage T7 hasbeen performed in an attempt to identify those proteins thatpotentially contain this motif. Eight proteins were found tohave regions similar to that of the motif. Of these, three arerelatively small, have no known function and are good candidatesfor being DNA-binding regulatory proteins. The methods describeduse commonly available computer programs and databases, andare therefore easy to implement.     

基于十二烷基衣康酸甘油酯的光电双响应传感器

该文制备了一种利用结构色水凝胶作为导电电极的光电双响应传感器。以十二烷基衣康酸甘油酯(DGI)、丙烯酰胺、十二烷基硫酸钠(SDS)、氯化钠等为原料,通过双分子层自组装的方法,制备了结构色水凝胶。将这种结构色水凝胶与传统电容型传感器相结合,得到了光电双响应传感器。采用SEM、LCR数字电桥、拉力试验机、光纤光谱仪等对器件进行了结构、光学、电学及机械性能的表征。结果表明:传感器在拉伸状态(0～100%)和压缩状态(0～60.9k Pa)下,传感器的电容分别变化了31%和44%,其自身颜色在可见光光谱内可以动态可逆地从红色变化到紫色。经历15000次循环拉伸后,传感器性能依旧保持稳定。利用传感器颜色的刺激响应性,传感器在发生形变时,其表面可以清楚地显示出应变源的位置和形状,这样传感器在检测时就可以实现可视化效果。     

Structural material from waste plastic

In efforts to contribute to community development, particularly in the context of Egyptian communities, waste plastics materials were successfully recycled without the difficult task of separation and reused to economically produce new structural material. Recycling was performed by mixing molten waste plastics with sand to produce these new materials. Samples with different percentages of plastics and different particle sizes of sand were used in the process. Materials showed acceptable density and high compressive strength, which was shown to be at a maximum with contents of about 30–40% waste plastic. Furthermore, certain types of sand having different colors were used to produce attractive materials, suitable for decorative uses. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effect of the N-linked glycans on structural features and physicochemical functions of soybean β-conglycinin homotrimers

β-Conglycinin is a trimeric protein consisting of three subunits, α,α′,and β, which are N-glycosylated. The α and α′ subunits contain extension regions in addition to core regions common to all subunits. We purified homogeneous trimers consisting of only α, α′, or β from mutant soybean cultivars containing β-conglycinin lacking one or two subunits: α homotrimers from an α′-lacking mutant, α′ homotrimers from an α-lacking mutant, and β homotrimers from an α-and α′-lacking mutant. Structural features and physicochemical functions of the three homotrimers were examined and compared with those of recombinant homotrimers having no N-linked glycans. The native homotrimers have secondary structures very similar to those of the recombinant ones. In analogy with the recombinant homotrimers, the native ones exhibit different thermal stabilities from one another (β>α′>α), and the native α and α′ homotrimers exhibit better solubility, emulsifying ability, and heat-induced association than the native β homotrimer. Further, the N-linked glycans contribute to solubilities of the three subunits at low ionic strength (μ=0.08) and to the emulsifying ability of the native β homotrimer. N-Linked glycans also prevent heat-induced associations of the native α and α′ homotrimers but do not contribute to the secondary structure and the thermal stability of β-conglycinin.     

The Effect of Moisture Content in Epoxy Film Adhesives on their Performance. III: Bulk Properties

Humidity absorbed by epoxy film adhesives during low temperature storage or exposure to atmosphere may result in reversible changes and irreversible modifications. Vacuum treatment may partially remedy the reversible changes. The consequences of vacuum drying are manifested in enhancement of both the peel and shear properties of bonded joints (Part I and Part II of this series of papers) and the thermal, physical and mechanical properties of the bulk adhesive, characterized in the present study.

Experimental results have shown that the bulk properties of structural epoxy based adhesives are highly correlated with the aging processes caused by water absorption in the prepolymerized adhesive. Applying the vacuum process is harmful to fresh unaged adhesive due to devolatization of low molecular species of the film adhesive.

The characterization of bulk properties for the purpose of following the aging and recovery processes is advantageous, since the bulk is independent of geometrical and interfacial effects which dominate in the case of property evaluation of the adhesive in a bonded joint.     

Heat Induced Structure Modifications in Polymer‐Layered Silicate Nanocomposites

Summary: The success of the use of layered silicates in polymer nanocomposites, to improve physical and chemical properties is strictly related to a deeper knowledge of the mechanistic aspects on which the final features are grounded. This work shows the temperature induced structural rearrangements of nanocomposites based on poly[ethylene‐co‐(vinyl acetate)] (EVA) intercalated‐organomodified clay (at 3–30 wt.‐% silicate addition) which occur in the range between 75 and 350 °C. In situ high temperature X‐ray diffraction (HT‐XRD) studies have been performed under both nitrogen and air to monitor the modifications of the nanocomposite structure at increasing temperatures under inert/oxidative atmosphere. Heating between 75 and 225 °C, under nitrogen or air, causes the layered silicate to migrate towards the nanocomposite surface and to increase its interlayer distance. The degradation of both the clay organomodifier and the VA units of the EVA polymer seems to play a key role in driving the evolution of the silicate phase in the low temperature range. The structural modifications of the nanocomposites in the high temperature range (250–350 °C), depended on the atmosphere, either inert or oxidizing, in which the samples were heated. Heating under nitrogen led to deintercalation and thus a decrease of the silicate interlayer space, whereas exfoliation was the main process under air leading to an increase of the silicate interlayer space.
