The interconversion of various solution species in the systems was investigated by measuring the infrared spectra of sodium aluminate solution with different compositions after separate heat treatment, dilution and concentration. The results show that increasing temperature or prolonging holding time favors the transformation of Al2O(OH)2- to Al—OH vibration(condensed Al O4 tetrahedral aluminate ion) at about 880 cm-1 and Al(OH)-4. A12O(OH)2-66 and Al—OH tetrahedral dimer ions convert rapidly to Al(OH)-4 during the dilution process; however, the back transformation of Al(OH)-4 to the Al—OH tetrahedral dimer ions can occur in diluted sodium aluminate solution. As for the concentration process, the transformation of Al(OH)-4 to A12O(OH)2-6 and Al—OH tetrahedral dimer ions can take place, while it is relatively difficult to transform to A12O(OH)2-6.展开更多

A large number of trail structures were generated by systematically sampling the potential energy surface (PES) of OlyArg. The trial structures were successively optimized with the methods of PM3, HF/3-21G*, BHandHLYP/6-31G* and BHandHLYP/6-311++G** in order to reliably find the low energy conformations. The eonformational energies were finally determined with the methods of BHandHLYP, cam- B3LYP, B97D, and MP2 using the basis set of 6-311++G(3df,3pd). The results establish firmly that gaseous GlyArg exists primarily in its canonical form, in sharp contrast with ArgGly that adopts the zwitterionic form. Important data such as the rotational constants, dipole moments, vertical ionization energies, temperature distributions and IR spectra of the low energy conformers are represented for the understanding of the future experiments. Moreover, considering the global minima of all amino acids and many dipeptides, combined with the hydrophobicities of amino acids, a model predicting whether the global minimum configuration of a dipeptide is canonical or zwitterionic is developed.展开更多

It is found that 1 100 cm^-1 characteristic peak shifts to higher wave number when Si-O-Si bond angle increases. Taking fused biconical taper (FBT) coupler as an example, the microstructures of the fiber coupler manufactured at different draw- ing speeds were tested with micro infrared spectrum. According to the test results, it is found that the bond angle at the taper region is the largest, the one at the fused region is the second largest, and the one of bare fiber is the smal- lest. The characteristic peaks of fused-taper region shift to higher wave number when drawing speed increases.展开更多

Methods The secondary structure of native insulin, mixture of insulin with liposome(sample Ⅰ) and insulin encapsulated within liposome( sample Ⅱ) were determined by FTIR (FourierTransform Infrared) spectroscopy. Results The secondary structure of insulin encapsulated withinliposome(Ⅱ) are similar with the secondary structure of native insulin. The difference existed inthe amount of α-helices (from 36% of insulin to 31% of sample Ⅱ) and β-sheet(from 48% of insulinto 51% of sample Ⅱ). The content of α-helices and β-sheet of insulin in sample Ⅰ was found to bevery close to that of sample Ⅱ. The results revealed that the insulin encapsulated within liposomepossibly spread on the surface of liposome, without inserting into the liposome membrane.Conclusion The secondary structure of insulin encapsulated within liposome is similar with thenative insulin.展开更多

In this work, we report a systematic ab initio study on the conformations and metal ion affinities of glutamine (Gln) binding with alkali and alkaline earth metal ions. An efficient and reliable method of searching low energy conformations of metalated Gln is proposed and applied to the complexes of Gln.Gln.M^+/++(M+/++=Li^+、Na^+、K^+、Rb^+、Cs^+、Be^++、Mg^++、Ca^++、Sr^++ and Ba^++).. In addition to all conformers known in literatures, many new important conformations are located, demonstrating the power of the new method and the necessity of the conformational search performed here. The metal coordination modes, relative energies, dipole moments, and equilibrium distributions of all important conformations of Gln.M^+/++ are calculated by the methods of B3LYP, BHandHLYP, and MP2. IR spectra and metalation enthalpies and free energies are also presented and compared with the available experiments. The results form an extensive database for systematic examination of the metalation properties of Gln.展开更多

The results show that the increasing amount of B203 causes the increase of the contents of [BO3], [BO4] and [SiO4], which deduces the increase of CaB204 and a-SiO2 and the decrease of CaSiO3 correspondingly. No new phase is observed throughout the entire experiments. A bulk density of 2.54 g/cm3, a thermal expansion coefficient value of 11.95× 10-6 ℃-1 (20-500℃), a dielectric constant er value of 6.42 and a dielectric loss tanδ value of 0.000 9 (measured at 9.7 GHz) are obtained for CBS glass ceramics containing 35%-B203 (mass fraction) sintered at 850 ℃ for 15 min.展开更多

Quantum chemical calculations were performed on the [Co(CO2)n]^+ clusters to identify the structures of the low-lying isomers and to assign the observed spectral features. All the [Co(CO2)n]^+(n=2-6) clusters studied here show resonances near the CO2 asymmetric stretch of free CO2 molecule. Experimental and calculated results indicate that the CO2 molecules are weakly bound to the Co+ cations in an end-on con guration via a charge-quadrupole electrostatic interaction. The present IRPD spectra of [Co(CO2)n]^+ clusters have been compared to those of Ar-tagged species ([Co(CO2)n]^+-Ar), which would provide insights into the tagging effect of rare gas on the weakly-bounded clusters.展开更多
