三角帆蚌Nacrein基因克隆、蛋白提纯及其对珍珠晶体成型的影响

为研究三角帆蚌Nacrein蛋白对珍珠晶体成型的影响,通过巢式及3′-RACE PCR对三角帆蚌基质蛋白Nacrein基因3′端序列进行克隆,得到850bp碱基片段,分析表明其与合浦珠母贝同源基因序列相似度为56%,与马氏珠母贝相似度为50%。试验通过水提法初步分离出珍珠质水溶性基质蛋白,并采用快速蛋白液相色谱(fast protein liquid chromatography,FPLC)分离出分子量约为60kD的Nacrein蛋白。此外,采用配对试验设计,对试验组外套膜组织培养样品加入Nacrein蛋白,研究Nacrein蛋白对晶体成型的影响,结果显示,加入Nacrein蛋白的试验组结晶成棱形状;而未加Nacrein蛋白的对照组结晶成雪花状,而且在晶体形成的时间上,试验组也较之对照组要早。研究表明,Nacrein蛋白能加速外套膜组织分泌的钙质形成棱状结晶,从而对晶体成型产生影响。本研究为进一步研究基质蛋白对生物矿化的作用提供试验依据,对珍珠培育生产有一定指导意义。

Polycrystalline model for FE-simulation of micro forming processes

A new polycrystal model was presented from the viewpoint of polycrystal structure of the billets considering free surface effects.In the model,the billet was divided into three portions,such as free surface portion,transition portion and internal portion.The grains in free surface portion were considered the single grains,and the anisotropy of the grains was taken into account by introducing grain orientation to explain the inhomogeneous deformation.In the transition portion,the effects of the neighbouring grains were adopted in the model.The grains in the internal portion were considered the polycrystalline material.With the developed model,the upsetting deformation process was simulated by the MSC Superform software.The scatter of the flow stress and inhomogeneous deformation was observed by analysis of the model.The comparisons show that the computational results are good agreed with the experimental results.This means that the presented model is effective.

Quantitative Analysis of the Reduction Kinetics of a Pt(Ⅱ) Precursor in the Context of Pt Nanocrystal Synthesis

In this letter, we report a quantitative analysis of how a Pt（II） precursor is reduced to atoms at different temperatures for the formation of Pt nanocrystals with different morphologies and sizes. Our results suggest that in the early stage of a synthesis, the Pt（II） precursor is reduced to atoms exclusively in the solution phase, followed by homogeneous nucleation to generate nuclei and then seeds. At a relatively low reaction temperature such as 22℃, the growth of the seeds is dominated by autocatalytic surface reduction that involves the adsorption and then reduction of the Pt（II） precursor on the surface of the just-formed seeds. This particular growth pathway results in relatively large assemblies of Pt nanocrystals. When the reaction temperature is increased to 100 ℃, the dominant reduction pathway will be switched from surface to solution phase, producing much smaller asselnblies of Pt nanocrystals. Our results also demonstrate that a similar trend applies to the seed-rnediated growth of Pt nanocrystals in the presence of Pd nanocubes.

Semi-solid processing of hypereutectic A390 alloys using novel rheoforming process

The feasibility of semi solid processing of hypereutectic A390 alloys using a novel rheoforming process was investigated. A combination of the swirl enthalpy equilibration device （SEED） process, isothermal holding using insulation and addition of solid alloy during swirling was introduced as a novel method to improve the processability of semi solid slurry. The effects of isothermal holding and the addition of solid alloy on the temperature gradient between the centre and the wall and on the formation of a（Al） particles were examined. In additional tests, phosphorus and strontium were added to the molten metal to refine the primary and eutectic silicon structure to facilitate semi solid processing. The results show that the combination of the SEED process with two additional processing steps can produce semi-solid A390 alloys that can be rheoprocessed. The microstructure reveals an adequate amount of non-dendritic a（Al） globules surrounded by liquid, which greatly improves the processability of semi-solid slurry.
