Use of portable X-ray fluorescence in the analysis of surficial sediments in the exploration of hydrothermal vents on the Southwest Indian Ridge

Hydrothermal plumes released from the eruption of sea floor hydrothermal fluids contain large amounts of oreforming materials. They precipitate within certain distances from the hydrothermal vent. Six surficial sediment samples from the Southwest Indian Ridge（SWIR） were analyzed by a portable X-ray fluorescence（PXRF） analyzer on board to find a favorable method fast and efficient enough for sea floor sulfide sediment geochemical exploration. These sediments were sampled near, at a moderate distance from, or far away from hydrothermal vents. The results demonstrate that the PXRF is effective in determining the enrichment characteristics of the oreforming elements in the calcareous sediments from the mid-ocean ridge. Sediment samples（〉40 mesh） have high levels of elemental copper, zinc, iron, and manganese, and levels of these elements in sediments finer than 40 mesh are lower and relatively stable. This may be due to relatively high levels of basalt debris/glass in the coarse sediments, which are consistent with the results obtained by microscopic observation. The results also show clear zoning of elements copper, zinc, arsenic, iron, and manganese in the surficial sediments around the hydrothermal vent. Sediments near the vent show relatively high content of the ore-forming elements and either high ratios of copper to iron content and zinc to iron content or high ratios of copper to manganese content and zinc to manganese content. These findings show that the content of the ore-forming elements in the sediments around hydrothermal vents are mainly influenced by the distance of sediments to the vent, rather than grain size. In this way, the PXRF analysis of surface sediment geochemistry is found to satisfy the requirements of recognition geochemical anomaly in mid-ocean ridge sediments. Sediments with diameters finer than 40 mesh should be used as analytical samples in the geochemical exploration for hydrothermal vents on mid-oceanic ridges. The results concerning copper, zinc, arsenic, iron, and manganese and their ratio features can be used as indicators in sediment geochemical exploration of seafloor sulfides.

The Effectiveness of a Portable Fluorescence Spectrophotometer for Early Detection of Oral Cancer

Purpose: To investigate whether photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) using a portable fluorescence spectrophotometer (FC-1) can easily and objectively discriminate between normal and tumor cells at the dental chairside, and to further compare it with PDD that requires speculum examination by focusing on protoporphyrin IX (PPIX). Methods: Three cell lines (2 human oral squamous cell carcinoma-derived cell lines, HSC-2 and HSC-3 cells, and oral keratinocytes, HOK cells) were cultured. 5-Aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride (5-ALA) and deferoxamine mesylate (DFO) were mixed in DMEM, and the mixture was set to Control (DMEM only) and PDD (5-ALA+DFO) groups. And then, a fluorescence was measured under room temperature (RT) and 37°C (Incubation) by using FC-1. In this study, the two conditions were combined with the Control and PDD groups to form the Control/RT, Control/Incubate, PDD/RT, and PDD/Incubate groups. Additionally, the amount of singlet oxygen (1O2) generated by irradiation with 405 nm LED was measured using electron spin resonance spectroscopy to detect PPIX in the cell supernatant after 24 hours. Results: In HSC-2 and HSC-3, the fluorescence intensity values increased significantly at 2 hours between the Control/RT and PDD/RT groups. In addition, there was a significant difference between HSC-2 and HSC-3 compared to HOK. In all cell lines, the fluorescence intensity values of the PDD/Incubate group were significantly higher than those of the PDD/Control group. The amount of 1O2 generated by 405 nm LED irradiation was higher in the cell supernatants of all cell lines in the order of Control/RT < Control/Incubate < PDD/RT < PDD/Incubate group, and HSC-3 in the PDD/Incubate group showed a significant increase compared to HOK. Conclusion: It is suggested that PDD using FC-1 can clearly distinguish between normal cells and tumor cells in vitro studies using cell lines at 2 hours under 37°C, and it can detect not only intracellular PPIX, but also extracellular PPIX.

Portable fluorescence instrument for detecting membrane integrity in membrane bioreactor (MBR)

This study proposed the design, fabrication, and assembly of membrane integrity detection instruments in membrane bioreactors (MBR) based on fluorescence spectroscopy. Based on the PARAFAC model, we found that the peak at 280/335 nm strengthened after membrane breakage. The peak at 340/430 nm reflected the sludge concentration in the MBR and reduced the influence of internal filtration effects on detection. Therefore, we determined that the dual-LED light source excitation detection system can detect tryptophan-like substances at 280 nm (T-peak) and humic acid at 340 nm (C-peak). T-peak was identified as the core index indicating membrane integrity. Moreover, the C-peak is the reference indicator factor for a sensitive response to changes in the sludge concentration. The portable fluorescence instrument exhibited high sensitivity and good feedback accuracy compared to particle counting and turbidity detection, where the log reduction value was greater than 3.5. This overcomes the disadvantage of false alarms in particle counters and is not affected by the position of the pump system. This portable instrument provides a flexible and highly sensitive method for the assessment of industrial membrane integrity.

Application of a Portable XRF Spectrometer for <i>In-Situ</i>and Nondestructive Investigation of Pigments in Two 15th Century Icons

A simple portable X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer was successfully used for in-situ and nondestructive identification of the painting materials in two 15th century icons from the Onufri Museum in Beart, Albania. The spectrometer is based on a low power X-ray tube, a thermoelectrically cooled Si PIN detector and the spectrum acquisition system. It was assembled and adjusted at our laboratory for the investigation of the icons. A small number of pigments were clearly identified by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) measurements in both icons. This includes Lead white for the white color, gold and yellow ochre for the yellow color, red lead, cinnabar and red ochre for the red color, as well as cooper based pigments for the green color. At the same time, the investigation raised some new questions that need further investigations by the use of additional analytical techniques. The results show that in both icons are used similar pigments, which are in accordance with the Byzantine icon painting tradition.

Sensitive Colorimetric and Fluorescent Detection of Mercury Using Fluorescein Derivations

A colorimetric and fluorometric dual-model probe for mercury (II) ion was developed employing fluorescein hydrazide (FH) in ethanol-HEPES solution (1:1, v/v, pH 8.0). The probe exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity for Hg2+ detection using UV/Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. Addition of Hg2+ caused a visual color change from colorless to coloured and a fluorescence change from colorless to bright green. Other metal ions did not interfere with the detection of Hg2+.

Molecular Weight Distribution of Dissolved Organic Matter in Lake Hongfeng Determined by High Performance Size Exclusion Chromatography (HPSEC) With On-Line UV-Vis Absorbance and Fluorescence Detection

The molecular weight distribution (MWD) of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in lake waters from Lake Hongfeng was examined using high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) with UV-vis absorbance and fluorescence detection. The elution curves obtained by absorbance and fluorescence techniques expressed similar patterns, with the exception of diminishing of large fraction and the peaks behind several seconds in fluorescence chromatograms. According to its molecular weight (MW), DOM in water samples is divided into several fractions: large ({>3.5} kDa); medium-large ({3.5}-{2.0} kDa); medium ({2.0}-{1.0} kDa) and small ({<1.0} kDa). The average molecular weight was calculated using the elution curve detected by UV-vis absorbance and fluorescence detection techniques. The results showed that the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) and number-average molecular weight (Mn) calculated by UV-vis absorbance techniques range from 1750 to 2050 Dalton and from 1450 to 1850 Dalton, respectively. And the Mw and Mn obtained by fluorescence detection are lower by 50 to 400 Dalton. As a reference, the molecular weight of Fluka humic acid (FHA) is larger than that of water samples by about 200 Dalton. The average molecular weight of DOM for water samples collected in March and July was compared. The results revealed that the molecular weight is lower for water samples obtained in July than that obtained in March, indicating the ambient environment has an influence on the molecular weight, including photo-degradation and biological activity.

Obtaining the Fluorescent Chitosan for Investigations in the Analytical Ultracentrifuge

1) In order to achieve the visibility of the chitosan macromolecule for the UV optical system of the analytical ultracentrifuge on investigation of the molecular characteristics and polymers interactions, the labeling of chitosan by a new fluorophore of fluorescein-5-isothiocyanat was carried out. 2) Samples of fluorescent chitosan with two different degrees of fluorophore substitution and various degrees of acetylation were obtained. 3) The labeled chitosans with the fluorescein-5-isothiocyanat allowed estimating the sedimentation coefficient and the molecular characteristic in the analytical ultracentrifuge. 4) The sensitivity of the UV-optical system of the analytical ultracentrifuge for the obtained fluorescent samples of chitosan relatively to the fixation of the meniscus and the influence of the wavelength and rotation speed were estimated.

The UV Induced Fluorescence in Porites Coral from Hainan Island, China and Its Paleo-Environmental Implications

Porites coral in the nearshore waters off Hainan Island can give off yellowish\|green fluorescence under UV laser induction. After fitting the data between rainfall and fluorescent intensity, it can be found that both appear in a simply linear equation with a correlation coefficient of 0.78. The model equation can be used to reconstruct the rainfall in the past time by means of the determined fluorescent intensity. The correlation diagram of the determined and calculated or hindcast rainfall shows a synchronous change from 1982 to 1997. The peak positions of the variant curve are usually related to the El’nino year. That means the drought and flood recycles are restrained to some extent by globally environmental changes. Therefore, the coral fluorescent intensity acts as a geochemical proxy for reconstructing the rainfall series in the past hundreds of years and predicting the drought\|flood variant tendency in the future time.

Interaction of 4-aminosalicylic Acid and Surfactants in Aqueous Solutions Using UV-Vis Spectra and Steady-state Fluorescence Spectroscopy

The interactions of 4-aminosalicylic acid （4-ASA） and surfactants in aqueous solutions were investigated by using UV-Vis spectra and steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy.The results showed that the strongest peak at UV-vis spectra of 4-ASA aqueous solution in the presence of cationic surfactant and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide （CTAB） appeared at 206 nm and took a red shift from 206 nm to 221 nm with the increase of 4-ASA concentrations from 0.8×10-5 to 4.4×10-4 mol/L.Similarly,the strongest peak at UV-vis spectra of 4-ASA aqueous solution in the presence of nonionic surfactant and polyvinylpyrrolidone （PVP） appeared at 206 nm and took a red shift from 206 nm to 219 nm with the increase of 4-ASA concentrations from 0.8×10-5 to 4.4×10-4 mol/L.However,the similar phenomena did not appeared in the presence of anion surfactant,sodium dodecyl sulfate （SDS）,the UV-vis spectra of 4-ASA aqueous solution remained the same peak position and the peak value increased with the 4-ASA concentration increase.The results could be attributed to the electrostatic attraction between 4-ASA and CTAB or PVP,as well as the electrostatic repulsion between 4-ASA and SDS.Furthermore,the value of critical micelle concentration （CMC） of surfactants in the presence of 4-ASA was determined with Fluorescence method.The first and second CMC of CTAB was 1.2×10-4 M and 2.4×10-4 M,respectively.The first and second CMC of PVP was 1.2×10-4 M and 2.8×10-4 M.SDS realized the multiple micellizations to form multiple CMC.

Effect of Temperature on Optical Properties of Vegetable Oils Using UV-Vis and Laser Fluorescence Spectroscopy

UV-Vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy are used to test the quality and changes in the composition of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) and canola oil (CO) with temperature. The increase of temperature caused a change in the molecular structures of both types of oils seen as a gradual decrease of intensity amplitudes of absorption and fluorescence signals. A significant alteration occurred at ≈200&#176C where almost the main spectra of pheophytin-a, b, carotenoids, lutein and vitamin E in EVOO and linoleic acid and oleic acid in CO disappeared. An independent experiment showed the output of laser changes linearly with the input in oil at constant temperature (i.e., room temperature) where the transmission values of ≈33% and ≈75% are determined for EVOO and CO respectively. However, the transmission through a heated oil exhibited a non-linear behaviour which indicates the molecular optical response to thermal changes. The effect of storage time and adulteration of oils were also evaluated.

Effects of Inhabiting and Life Patterns on the UV Spectral Properties of Small Mammalian Herbivores’ Urine

It is well known that avian predators can use prey excretions such as urine and feces to track their prey, and the urine and feces of small mammalian herbivores can reflect ultraviolet (UV) light and emit fluorescent light. There are still some debates as to whether UV visibility of small mammalian herbivores’ urine is used as a hunting cue by avian raptors. Some studies in Europe have demonstrated that diurnal raptors are capable of utilizing these cues to target key prey species. However, researchers in Australia have argued that raptors do not use the UV visibility of urine while hunting. To our knowledge, there are no reports from Asia concerning the ultraviolet spectral characteristics of small mammal herbivores’ urine. This study examined the UV spectral properties of urine from 6 small mammal herbivores species by comparing the UV reflectance and fluorescence spectra of urine from small mammalian herbivores living in plateau meadows, plateau shrubs, open marshland, farmland, and semi-desert grassland in China. In addition, we compared the UV spectral properties of urine from ground-dwelling species of rodents and subterranean species to determine whether ultraviolet visibility of small mammal herbivores’ urine could be used as a visual signal by Asian vole-eating raptors. The results showed that: 1) the SC370 values of urine from four small mammal herbivores species were ordered as plateau pika (plateau meadow) > root voles (plateau bush) > reed voles (swampland) > Brandt’s vole (desert grassland);and 2) UV fluorescence peak intensity and the wavelengths of urine from ground-dwelling species (such as the root vole, plateau pika, or Brandt’s vole) were significantly higher than those of subterranean-dwelling species (mandarin vole and plateau zokor). These results indicate that UV visibility of small mammal herbivores’ urine may act as a visual cue for raptors.

肉桂酸疏水改性透明质酸的聚集及其光谱性质

通过肉桂酸(CA)与透明质酸(HA)的酯化反应,制备了肉桂酸疏水改性透明质酸(CA-HA)。使用表面张力、芘荧光探针、动态光散射和Zeta电位方法研究了CA-HA在水溶液表面和溶液中的聚集性质。紫外光照射后,CA-HA在250~325 nm处的紫外吸收未出现明显蓝移,说明CA-HA能够抑制CA接枝基团的光异构化,使CA接枝基团保持反式构型。除了CA接枝基团的荧光发射峰外,CA-HA在350~500 nm处还出现了CA接枝基团二聚体的荧光发射峰。随着质量浓度增大,CA-HA能够产生明显增强的聚集诱导荧光。同时,CA-HA乳液在紫外线B(UVB)波段(275~320 nm)具有良好的防晒性能。

UV-B辐射胁迫对水稻叶绿素荧光动力学的影响

研究结果表明,增强的紫外线-B(UV-B,280～320nm)辐射会导致水稻植株矮化4.71％～16.59％、叶面积变小、干物质生产量减少11.79％～60.57％。究其原因主要是叶片光合作用色素叶绿素a、叶绿素b和类胡萝卜素含量的降低和叶绿素a荧光动力学参数的改变,光合系统Ⅱ受到破坏,光合作用能力下降、生长发育受阻。

不同强度UV-B辐射胁迫对蚕豆幼苗生长及叶绿素荧光特性的影响

采用人工增强UV-B辐射的方法,研究了蚕豆幼苗生长及叶绿素荧光特性对不同强度UV-B辐射的响应.结果表明:不同强度UV-B辐射使幼苗植株矮化达50%以上,叶面积减小,干物质量减少23.3%～61.49%;可溶性糖及可溶性蛋白含量均显著降低;叶绿素含量下降,其中叶绿素a降低幅度比叶绿素b大;0.25W/m2的UV-B辐射使蚕豆幼苗叶片的Fv/Fm、Fv/F0、φPSⅡ、qP等荧光参数值显著下降.根据结果推测,增加不同强度UV-B辐射首先导致幼苗叶绿素含量减少,可溶性蛋白含量减少,进而降低PSⅡ反应中心活性,最终导致光合作用能力下降,减少了干物质的合成和积累.在本试验强度范围内,辐射强度为0.25W/m2时,其抑制作用最显著.幼苗植株的矮化及叶面积的减小是植物对增强UV-B辐射的一种适应方式.

双波长近红外拉曼光谱仪及在腐蚀产物分析中的应用

在拉曼光谱测试中某些物质存在荧光发射背景,由于荧光强度一般比拉曼散射强度高几个数量级,在荧光干扰时几乎无法获得有效的拉曼光谱信号。为抑制荧光背景,可选用近红外波段激光作为激发光源,而硅基探测器在1 000 nm以上波段时光量子效率严重下降,导致近红外拉曼光谱仪器难以探测3 000 cm^(-1)以上的波段,存在荧光抑制效果与检测范围无法兼顾的问题。由于高波数的拉曼特征峰是识别材料种类和解析材料结构的重要依据,如氨基的N—H伸缩振动峰在3 300 cm^(-1)附近、 OH-伸缩振动峰在3 650 cm^(-1),这些基团是分析材料腐蚀产物、水合物、有机物等的重要依据。因此,迫切需要开发一种解决拉曼光谱仪器无法兼顾荧光抑制效果和检测光谱范围问题的方法。该工作提出一种采用光谱仪固定检测波段、 730和830 nm双波长激光“接力”激发的方案(即830 nm激发低波数拉曼、 730 nm激发高波数拉曼)。通过双激光波长“接力”激发、固定检测波段的新设计,可有效拓宽检测范围至200~3 700 cm^(-1),并且不会降低光谱分辨率(达到6 cm^(-1)),与此同时整机光路无机械可动部件,可靠性高便于实现便携式设计。通过样机进行测试,证明该技术方案具备高灵敏度、较好荧光抑制效果、宽检测范围和较高光谱分辨率等优势。通过研制的双波长近红外拉曼光谱仪获得了铀腐蚀产物、有机涂层下的LiH潮解产物的清晰拉曼信号,解决了特种材料无损检测的技术难题。该技术也适用于其他研究及检测领域,特别是拉曼散射截面小、荧光背景高的物质检测。由于双波长近红外拉曼光谱仪可覆盖200~3 700 cm^(-1)检测范围,为多数水合物、含羟基及氨基官能团物质的拉曼检测提供了一种可行的技术途径。
