Thedetermination of the compressibility factor is shown to haveconsiderable effect on isotherm behavior at conditions after theisotherm maximum. A change in adsorption mechanisms on crossing thecritical temperature was observed in all cases. The kind ofadsorbents and how far the equilibrium temperature to the criticalone are major factors affecting the Transition of isotherms from sub-to supercritical.展开更多

The molecular structure of DPTA has been well characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR,1H NMR, and ^(31)P NMR spectroscopies. The chemically-grafted cotton fabrics, which were treated with 25 wt% DPTA, were obtained and confirmed by attenuated total reflectance Fourier infrared spectroscopy(ATR-FTIR). The flame retardancy and thermal property of the treated samples were investigated by limited oxygen index(LOI), vertical flammability test(VFT), thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) and microscale combustion calorimeter(MCC). It is noted that in vertical flammability test, the treated samples extinguished immediately upon removing the ignition source, whereas the untreated one was completely burned out. Furthermore, TGA and MCC tests revealed that the treated samples produced a high char formation and a low heated release during combustion. The surface morphology of the untreated and treated samples and the char residues after LOI tests were observed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Therefore, all the results showed that the treated cotton fabrics with 25 wt% DPTA apparently improved the fireresistant and thermal performances.展开更多

It was used largely by local people as antibacteria and aphrodisiac. Quinoline alkaloid lunacridine was known as the active principle from Lunasia amara Blanco. Its activity was reported as a DNA Intercalating Topoisomerase II inhibitor. In this study, we have isolated and assayed the cytotoxic activity of lunacridine on P388 murine leukemia cells by MTT colorimetric assay (in vitro). Lunacridine showed the less cytotoxic activity with the IC50 of 39.52 μg/mL. With the aim to explore the structural determinants responsible for this activity, molecular docking study have been carried out with DNA model using AutoDock 4.0 software with various total of energy evaluations (in silico). The best docking reached at the total energy evaluations of 2.5 × 107 with the binding free energy of-6.63 kcal/mol. Analysis of the docking results was in accordance with the ability of lunacridine to intercalate between base pairs of DNA. Cytotoxic activity of lunacridine is less probably due to low affinity and molecular interaction. Therefore this study suggests to design and to develop lunacridine as a lead compound for anticancer drug.展开更多

Our simulation shows the re-exchange process plays an important role on the growth mode transition in Ge/Sb/Si(111) system.The influences of the substrate temperature and the deposition rate on the growth of Ge/Sb/Si(111) system is discussed.展开更多
