The polymerization proceeds efficiently in an acidic solution under atmosphericconditions. Oxygen, chemical and electrochemical oxidations are available. Vanadyl acety-lacetonate and cerium ammonium nitrate act as an effective catalyst for the oxygen ox-idative polymerization. The polymerization mechanism involves multielectron oxidation ofthe sulfides followed by successive electrophilic substitution. The resulting polyarylenesul-fonium cations are useful as a soluble precursor for the synthesis of high molecular weight(M_w>10~5) poly(thio arylne)s.展开更多
Incorporation of synthetic heme(FeP) into recombinant human serum albumin(rHSA) provides an artificial hemoprotein(rHSA-FeP) which can bind and release oxygen reversibly under physiological conditions(in aqueous media...Incorporation of synthetic heme(FeP) into recombinant human serum albumin(rHSA) provides an artificial hemoprotein(rHSA-FeP) which can bind and release oxygen reversibly under physiological conditions(in aqueous media, pH 7.3, 37 ℃) like hemoglobin(Hb) and myoglobin. An rHSA host absorbs maximally eight FeP molecules, and the solution properties are almost identical to those of rHSA itself. The second-order structure and surface charge distribution of rHSA were always constant independent of the binding numbers of FeP. Its O 2-binding ability satisfies the initial clinical requirements for red cell substitute. Although the NO-binding affinity is 8-fold high compared to the Hbs, administration of this fluid into rats showed negligible change in the blood pressure. Physiological responses to exchange transfusion with this rHSA-FeP into anaesthetized rats have also been evaluated.展开更多
