In batch testes, the adsorption capacities of PDTU-I for Pt(IV) and Pd(II) increase with the increase of contact time, temperature and initial concentration of metal ions. The adsorption data fit Boyd's diffusion equation of liquid film, Langmuir adsorption isotherm and Freundlich adsorption isotherm. The maximum adsorption capacities calculated by Langmuir equation are 2.54mmol/g for Pt(IV) and 4.88mmol/g for Pd(II). According to FTIR and XPS results, functional groups of PDTU-I coordinate with noble metal ions in the adsorption process.展开更多

To explore the direct effect of LMW fucoidan on the platelet system furthermore and examine the possible mechanism, the endothelial protection and inhibits platelet activation effects of two LMW fucoidan were investigated. In the present study, Endothelial injury model of rats was made by injection of adrenaline(0.4 mg kg-1) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were cultured. v WF level was be investigated in vivo and in vitro as an important index of endothelial injury. LMW fucoidan could significantly reduce v WF level in vascular endothelial injury rats and also significantly reduce v WF level in vitro. The number of EMPs was be detected as another important index of endothelial injury. The results showed that LMW fucoidan reduced EMPs stimulated by tumor necrosis factor. In this study, it was found that by inhibiting platelet adhesion, LMW fucoidan played a role in anti-thrombosis and the specific mechanism of action is to inhibit the flow of extracellular Ca2+. All in a word, LMW fucoidan could inhibit the activation of platelets indirectly by reducing the concentration of EMPs and v WF, at the same time; LMW fucoidan inhibited the activation of platelets directly by inhibiting the flow of extracellular Ca2+.展开更多

The aim of this study was to examine the therapeutic effect of sulfate chitosan derivatives on NAFLD. The male Wistar rats were orally fed high fat emulsion and received sulfate chitosan derivatives for 5 weeks to determine the pre-treatment effect of sulfate chitosan derivatives on NAFLD. To evaluate the therapeutic effect of sulfate chitosan derivatives on NAFLD, the rats were orally fed with high concentration emulsion for 5 weeks, followed by sulfate chitosan derivatives for 3 weeks. Histological analysis and biomedical assays showed that sulfate chitosan derivatives can dramatically prevent the development of hepatic steatosis in hepatocyte cells. In animal studies, pre-treatment and treatment with sulfate chitosan derivatives significantly protected against hepatic steatohepatitis induced by high fat diet according to histological analysis. Furthermore, increased TC, ALT, MDA, and LEP in NAFLD were significantly ameliorated by pre-treatment and treatment with sulfate chitosan derivatives. Furthermore, increased TG, AST, and TNF-α in NAFLD were significantly ameliorated by treatment with sulfate chitosan derivatives. Sulfate chitosan derivatives have good pre-treatment and therapeutic effect on NAFLD.展开更多

The obtained HgS nanoparticles with good dispersibility were characterized by Fourier transform infrared. Scanning electron microscopy are used to envisage the binding of nanoparticles with functional groups. The polyurethane molecules can control nucleation and growth of HgS crystals by binding on the surface of nanocrystals to stabilize nanoparticles. Quantum confinement effect of polyurethane-conjugated HgS nanocrystals was confirmed by UV-Vis spectra. The nanoparticles exhibit a well-defined emission feature at about 291 nm. The fluorescence results reveal that the PU/HgS nanoparticles film is sensitive to Ba2＋, and a small amount of Ba2＋ makes the emissions increase rapidly. The emission is hardly affected by other common ions in water. The nanocomposite film is possible to become a special sensor material for Ba2＋.展开更多
