Seed and foliage extracts of Lathyrus sativus were treated with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (FDNB) and a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the separation of the derivatives in the pmol range is reported.展开更多

(l)-2-amino-3-(carboxymethylthio)propionic acid was used as the internal standard (I.S.). After a protein precipitation extraction with acetonitrile, dencichine and the I.S. were chromatographed on an Xterra MS-C18 column. The mobile phase was consisted of 20mmol/L ammonium acetate solution-acetonitrile (35:65, V/V) at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. The detection was performed on a triple quadrupole mass via electrospray ionization (ESI) source in the positive mode. The intra- and inter-day precision (relative standard deviation, R.S.D.) values of dencichine were below 6.7%. The extraction recoveries were up 85%. The lower limit of quantification was 20 ng/ml, which was sensitive enough to detect the analyte. The HPLC-MS/MS method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study after an intravenous administration of dencichine in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat.展开更多

The main objective of the work was to examine the influence of the aziridine bonding agents family on the propellant aging. Aging of the prepared propellant samples was conducted as follows: 1. Four samples, one free of bonding agents, and three containing aziridine based bonding agents MAPO,HX-752, MAT4 were aged at 65°C. 2. Another four samples based on HX-752, MAT4 with different curing agents were aged at 65°C. The measured mechanical properties of the free bonding agent propellant samples were very far from the specifications and this illustrates the importance of the bonding agents in both the preparation and the aging phases.The prepared bonding agent 'MAT4' gave remarkable improvements of the mechanical properties comparing with HX-752 and MAPO. The aziridine bonding agents family inhibited the rate of decomposition of the propellant during the aging periods and supported the propellant matrix against decomposition at the elevate temperatures. Using of HMDI as curing agent gave slight better mechanical properties to the IPDI.展开更多
