The oxidation resistance and microstructure of the coating oxidized in ambient air at 1000 °C for 25-250 h were investigated using SEM, X-ray diffraction and optical microscope methods. The results show that the copper with single phase Ni2Al3 coating possesses the best high temperature oxidation resistance, and the mass gain of the coating is 1/15 that of pure copper and 1/2 that of nickel coating, respectively. The specimen surface after being oxidized for 25 h still comprises Ni2Al3 phase. However, when the time of oxidizing treatment increases to 50 h, the Ni Al phase is formed. It is also found that the Ni2Al3 phase completely turns into Ni Al phase after oxidizing treatment for 100 h and above. The Ni Al coating shows excellent high temperature oxidation resistance when oxidation time is 250 h.展开更多

The labelling reaction was carried out at 30℃ for 1 h at pH 6.5 and the resulting reaction mixture was sudjected to HPLC. The labelled fatty acid C_(17)(P-C_(17))was used as the internal standard. The la- belled fatty acids C_(16) and C_(18) were separated within 18 min on an ODS-8OTM column (150 mm× 6 mm ID,5μm,Tosoh Japan).The calibrlation curves of fatty acids from the spiked control serum were Y_1=-0.003 7 + 0.0028X_1,r=0.994 for FA C_( 16) and Y_2=0.00 1 2 + 0.00098X_2,r=0.999 for FA C_( 18),respectively.The average recoveries of facids from the spiked contrl serum were 107.2%(n=8,RSD=4.3%)for FA C_(16) and 97.35%(n=8, RSD=4.0%)for FA C_(18),respectively.The lower detection limits of fatty acids after reaction were 12μmol per 20μl injection for FA C_(16) and 18 μmol per 20μl injection for FA C_(18),respectively(signal to noise ratio, S/N=2).The HPLC/CL method was applied to the determination of FA C_(16) and FA C_(18) in normal human serum and the results showed that the concentrations of fatty acids in normal human serum were 0.134 ± 0.009 μ mol/ml serum(n=5) for FA C_(16) and 0.052±0.028 μmol/ml serum(n=5)for FA C_(18),respectively.展开更多

METHODS: Eighty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were included in the study. Fifteen of the eighty-five rats were used as controls (sham, Group I ). AP was induced via intraductal taurocholate infusion in the remaining seventy rats. Rats that survived to induction of acute necrotizing pancreatitis were randomized into four groups. Group H received saline, Group m allopurinol, Group IV allopurinol plus HBO and Group v HBO alone. Serum amylase levels, oxidative stress parameters, BT and histopathologic scores were determined. RESULTS: Serum amylase levels were lower in Groups Ⅲ, Ⅳ and v compared to Group H (974 ± 110, 384 ± 40, 851 + 56, and 1664 Ⅳ 234 U/L, respectively, P 〈 0.05, for all). Combining the two treatment optionsrevealed significantly lower median [25-75 percentiles] histopathological scores when compared to individual administrations (13 [12.5-15] in allopurinol group, 9.5 [7-11.75] in HBO group, and 6 [4.5-7.5] in combined group, P 〈 0.01). Oxidative stress markers were significantly better in all treatment groups compared to the controls. Bacterial translocation into the pancreas and mesenteric lymph nodes was lower in Groups m, iV and v compared to Group H (54%, 23%, 50% vs 100% for translocation to pancreas, and 62%, 46%, 58% vs 100% for translocation to mesenteric lymph nodes, respectively, P 〈 0.05 for all). CONCLUSION: The present study confirms the benefit of HBO and allopurinol treatment when administered separately in experimental rat AP. Combination of these treatment options appears to prevent progression of pancreatic injury parameters more effectively.展开更多

Results indicated that the concentrating times of Fe oxides by HGMS treatment were the largest for 0.2-2 μmsize fractions in the examined soils. For the soils in which 2: 1 phyllosilicates were dominant, concentrating times of iron oxides by HGMS treatment were larger than by 5 mol L-1 NaOH treatment. Phyllosili-cates were decreased after HGMS treatment; however, the decrease was less than that of kaorolinite. The goet bite / (goethite + hematie) values in Fe oxides of the soils kept virtually constant after HGMSt reatment.展开更多

During the first and last 3-mo eras(era 1 and 3), no HFNO was available, whereas it was an option during the second 3-mo era(era 2). The primary outcome was the percent utilization of GA vs deep sedation in each period. Secondary outcomes included oxygen saturation nadir during sedation between periods, as well as procedure duration, and anesthesia-only time between periods and for GA vs sedation cases respectively.RESULTS During the study period 238 ERCP or EUS cases were identified for analysis. Statistical testing was employed and a P < 0.050 was significant unless the Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons was used. General anesthesia use was significantly lower in era 2 compared to era 1 with the same trend between era 2 and 3(P = 0.012 and 0.045 respectively). The oxygen saturation nadir during sedation was significantly higher in era 2 compared to era 3(P < 0.001) but not between eras 1 and 2(P = 0.028) or 1 and 3(P = 0.069). The procedure time within each era was significantly longer under GA compared to deep sedation(P ≤ 0.007) as was the anesthesia-only time(P ≤ 0.001).CONCLUSION High-flow nasal oxygen availability was associated with decreased GA utilization and improved oxygenation for ERCP and EUS during sedation.展开更多

In our experiment, they were isolated from wastewater using the solid phase extraction method. In the case of sludge, pressurized solvent extraction techniques were used followed by solid phase extraction. The solid phase extraction method was used for purification and concentration. Sulphonamide and diaminopyrimidine antibiotics were determined using high performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection. The selected antibiotics were determined in real sludge samples collected from the wastewater treatment plant in Brno-Mod^ice and in real wastewater samples collected from the wastewater treatment plant located on the grounds of the University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences in Brno, using the developed and optimized method. Analyses showed that real samples of wastewater contained sulphathiazole 11.82μg/L at the inflow (7.1 μg/L at the outflow), sulphapyridine 18.57 I.tg/L (12.2 μg/L), sulphamethazine 13.52 μg/L (8.44 μg/L), sulphamethoxazole 14.06 lag/L (9.34 Ixg/L) and trimethoprim 521.4 lag/L (422.29 μg/L).

Pt nanoparticles are directly deposited on the pre-cleaned and pre-oxidized multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWC- NTs) from Pt salt by using CO as the reductant. MOR activity has been characterized by both cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry, the current density and mass specific current at the peak potential (ca. 0.9 V vs. RHE) reaches 11.6 mA/cm^2 and 860 mA/mgpt, respectively. After electro-deposition of Ru onto the Pt/MWCNTs surface, the catalysts show steady state mass specific current of 20 and 80 mA/mgpt at 0.5 and 0.6 V, respectively.展开更多

Among several types of antibiotics, four antibiotics were chosen to feature the major classes of these compounds: amoxicillin, erythromycin, streptomycin and ciprofloxacin. Degradation of antibiotic solutions was carried out mainly under UV-light irradiation in a set time with the presence of small quantity of zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Solutions were analyzed with HPLC chromatography and degradation percentages were calculated from ratio between pick area associated to no degraded drug solution and degraded drug solution's pick area. Meanwhile, toxicity of antibiotics and degrading compounds were investigated using a biosensor system, consisting of Clark's electrode associated with a portion of agar medium culture containing Saccharomyces Cerevisiae yeast cells. This way, it was possible to define the oxygen that was consumed by yeast cells. Toxicity associated to antibiotics and degrading products are related to decrease of oxygen concentration in solution. It is clear that zinc oxide is slower than titanium dioxide to degrade antibiotics, but zinc oxide shows better photodegradation efficiency than titanium dioxide in spite of its small specific superficial area.展开更多

The synthesis parameters, such as the reaction temperature, the first aging temperature and the second aging temperature, were investigated. The textural properties of γ-Al2O3 were characterized by means of N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetry (TG). The experimental results indicated that AACH and amorphous A1OOH were the precursors of alumina, which were formed via precipitation from solutions after reaction of aluminum sulphate with ammonium hydrogen carbonate. The precursor nanocrystallites grew and re-assembled during the secondary reforming process, which resulted in an increased pore size and pore volume and a decreased bulk density. The as-synthesized γ-Al2O3 materials featured meso/macroporosity, large pore volume (2.175 cm^3/g), high surface area (237.8 m^2/g), and low bulk density (0.284 g/mL).展开更多

The oxidative removal of chlorophenols such as 2 - chlorophenoi, 4 - chlorophenol, 2, 4 - dichlorophenol, and 2, 4, 6 - trichlorophenol was investigated in the catalytic oxidative system of Co - TDTAPc- F/H2O2. Furthermore, more than 98% of these chloropbenols were decomposed in 4 h. Phenol, oxalic acid, maleic acid, and succinic acid, etc., were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometer (GC - MS), and these short-chain organic acids could be further oxidized easily. The results indicated that the catalytic oxidation in the Co- TDTAPc - F/H2O2 system leaded to a deeper oxidation. In addition, a degradation pathway for chlorophenols was proposed on the basis of detection of intermediate compounds.展开更多

Compa...Biological treatment efficiency of six pharmaceutical compounds (acetazolamide, metronidazole, opipramol, piracetam, salicylamide and tinidazole) was evaluated using lab-scale Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR). Comparative biological degradation processes of two types of activated sludge from municipal and pharmaceutical industry sewage treatment plants were examined. Three different organic loadings (0.05 g COD/g MLSS.d, 0.1 g COD/g MLSS.d and 0.2 g COD/g MLSS-d) and reaction time on the efficiency of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) decomposition were examined. Chemical oxygen demand, non-purgeable organic carbon as well as ammonium nitrogen contents were monitored by standard methods. Percentage of API decomposition was analysed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The overall API removal efficiency was strictly dependent on the type of activated sludge origin. The main biodegradation products were identified using HPLC-MS,1H NMR and 13C NMR methods as e.g. ({4-[3-(5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepin-5-yl]piperazin-l-yl}methanamine) and (2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-sulfonamide) for opipramol and acetazolamide respectively.展开更多

文摘A simple and green approach to synthesize highly active electro-catalysts for methanol oxi- dation reaction (MOR) without using any organic agents is described. Pt nanoparticles are directly deposited on the pre-cleaned and pre-oxidized multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWC- NTs) from Pt salt by using CO as the reductant. MOR activity has been characterized by both cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry, the current density and mass specific current at the peak potential (ca. 0.9 V vs. RHE) reaches 11.6 mA/cm^2 and 860 mA/mgpt, respectively. After electro-deposition of Ru onto the Pt/MWCNTs surface, the catalysts show steady state mass specific current of 20 and 80 mA/mgpt at 0.5 and 0.6 V, respectively.

文摘The paper presents results of phenol oxidized under the conditions of high temperature created during collapse of cavitation bubbles.The degradation efficiency has been greatly improved by using cavitation water jets combined with H2O2 as demonstrated in laboratory tests.Various factors affecting phenol removal ratio were ex-amined and the degradation mechanism was revealed by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).The re-sults showed that 99.85% of phenol was mineralized when phenol concentration was 100 mg·L-1 with pH value of 3.0,H2O2 concentration of 300 mg·L-1,confining pressure of 0.5 MPa,and pumping pressure of 20 MPa.The in-termediate products after phenol oxidation were composed of catechol,hydroquinone and p-benzoquinone.Finally,phenol was degraded into maleic acid and acetic acid.Furthermore,a dynamic model of phenol oxidation via cavi-tation water jets combined with H2O2 has been developed.

文摘The transformation of an anthraquinone dye blue 324 in a facultative-aerobic(F-A) system was investigated.Kinetic parameter study showed that higher Vmax coupled with more recalcitrant chemical oxygen demand(COD) were found in the facultative biofilm reactor(FBR) than in the aerobic reactor(AR).Results of the product analyses indicated that most of dye molecular could be facultatively broken down into simple intermediates,which would be further degraded under subsequent aerobic condition.The main metabolites in each reactor were detected by infrared(FT-IR) and high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS).Comparison of the toxicities among the dye and its metabolites was conducted,surprisingly,the colorless intermediates from FBR possessed less inhibitory than original dye and the median effective luminescence concentration(EC50) in 15 min for aerobic effluent could not be detected,showing that hardly toxic products existed in the aerobic process effluent.
文摘The study examined the photodegradative efficiency of ZnO and TiO2 in degradation of antibiotics in aqueous matrices. Among several types of antibiotics, four antibiotics were chosen to feature the major classes of these compounds: amoxicillin, erythromycin, streptomycin and ciprofloxacin. Degradation of antibiotic solutions was carried out mainly under UV-light irradiation in a set time with the presence of small quantity of zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Solutions were analyzed with HPLC chromatography and degradation percentages were calculated from ratio between pick area associated to no degraded drug solution and degraded drug solution's pick area. Meanwhile, toxicity of antibiotics and degrading compounds were investigated using a biosensor system, consisting of Clark's electrode associated with a portion of agar medium culture containing Saccharomyces Cerevisiae yeast cells. This way, it was possible to define the oxygen that was consumed by yeast cells. Toxicity associated to antibiotics and degrading products are related to decrease of oxygen concentration in solution. It is clear that zinc oxide is slower than titanium dioxide to degrade antibiotics, but zinc oxide shows better photodegradation efficiency than titanium dioxide in spite of its small specific superficial area.

文摘Through improving the aging process during synthesis of the support, γ-Al2O3 with large pore volume and high surface area was synthesized by a facile secondary reforming method. The synthesis parameters, such as the reaction temperature, the first aging temperature and the second aging temperature, were investigated. The textural properties of γ-Al2O3 were characterized by means of N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetry (TG). The experimental results indicated that AACH and amorphous A1OOH were the precursors of alumina, which were formed via precipitation from solutions after reaction of aluminum sulphate with ammonium hydrogen carbonate. The precursor nanocrystallites grew and re-assembled during the secondary reforming process, which resulted in an increased pore size and pore volume and a decreased bulk density. The as-synthesized γ-Al2O3 materials featured meso/macroporosity, large pore volume (2.175 cm^3/g), high surface area (237.8 m^2/g), and low bulk density (0.284 g/mL).

文摘Lignin is a group of phenolic polymers which is abundant in the woody tissues of vascular plants,and is essentially absent from all other living organisms.It has therefore been accepted as a tracer for terrestrial organic carbon(TOC) in marine environment since the 1970s.Lignin polymers are not amenable to direct chemical analysis without prior isolation.This review focused on the methods of chemical decomposition,extraction,derivatization and detection of lignin in marine environment.We described and compared several chemical decomposition methods,including nitrobenzene oxidation,alkaline cupric oxide(CuO) oxidation and thermochemolysis,and detection methods such as gas chromatography(GC),gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS),high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) and so on.Possible improvement of lignin analysis and the application prospects of this tracer were also discussed.

文摘A novel heterogeneous catalyst, viscose fiber- supported cobalt phthalocyanine (Co - TDTAPc - F), was prepared by immobilizing cobalt tetra(2.4 - dichloro- 1,3, 5 -triazine)aminophtbalocyanine (Co- TDTAPc) on viscose fibers covalcntly. The oxidative removal of chlorophenols such as 2 - chlorophenoi, 4 - chlorophenol, 2, 4 - dichlorophenol, and 2, 4, 6 - trichlorophenol was investigated in the catalytic oxidative system of Co - TDTAPc- F/H2O2. Furthermore, more than 98% of these chloropbenols were decomposed in 4 h. Phenol, oxalic acid, maleic acid, and succinic acid, etc., were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometer (GC - MS), and these short-chain organic acids could be further oxidized easily. The results indicated that the catalytic oxidation in the Co- TDTAPc - F/H2O2 system leaded to a deeper oxidation. In addition, a degradation pathway for chlorophenols was proposed on the basis of detection of intermediate compounds.
文摘Biological treatment efficiency of six pharmaceutical compounds (acetazolamide, metronidazole, opipramol, piracetam, salicylamide and tinidazole) was evaluated using lab-scale Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR). Comparative biological degradation processes of two types of activated sludge from municipal and pharmaceutical industry sewage treatment plants were examined. Three different organic loadings (0.05 g COD/g MLSS.d, 0.1 g COD/g MLSS.d and 0.2 g COD/g MLSS-d) and reaction time on the efficiency of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) decomposition were examined. Chemical oxygen demand, non-purgeable organic carbon as well as ammonium nitrogen contents were monitored by standard methods. Percentage of API decomposition was analysed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The overall API removal efficiency was strictly dependent on the type of activated sludge origin. The main biodegradation products were identified using HPLC-MS,1H NMR and 13C NMR methods as e.g. ({4-[3-(5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepin-5-yl]piperazin-l-yl}methanamine) and (2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-sulfonamide) for opipramol and acetazolamide respectively.
