Carbon nanotube(CNT)composite materials are very attractive for use in neural tissue engineering and biosensor coatings.CNT scaffolds are excellent mimics of extracellular matrix due to their hydrophilicity,viscosity,and biocompatibility.CNTs can also impart conductivity to other insulating materials improve mechanical stability guide neuronal cell behavior and trigger axon regeneration.The performance of chitosan(CS)/polyethylene glycol(PEG)composite scaffolds could be optimized by introducing multi-walled CNTs(MWCNTs).CS/PEG/CNT composite scaffolds with CNT content of 1%,3%,and 5%(1%=0.01 g/mL)were prepared by freeze-drying.Their physical and chemical properties and biocompatibility were evaluated.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)showed that the composite scaffolds had a highly connected porous structure.Transmission electron microscope(TEM)and Raman spectroscopy proved that the CNTs were well dispersed in the CS/PEG matrix and combined with the CS/PEG nanofiber bundles.MWCNTs enhanced the elastic modulus of the scaffold.The porosity of the scaffolds ranged from 83%to 96%.They reached a stable water swelling state within 24 h,and swelling decreased with increasing MWCNT concentration.The electrical conductivity and cell adhesion rate of the scaffolds increased with increasing MWCNT content.Immunofluorescence showed that rat pheochromocytoma(PC12)cells grown in the scaffolds had characteristics similar to nerve cells.We measured changes in the expression of nerve cell markers by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR),and found that PC12 cells cultured in the scaffolds expressed growth-associated protein 43(GAP43),nerve growth factor receptor(NGFR),and class IIIβ-tubulin(TUBB3)proteins.Preliminary research showed that the prepared CS/PEG/CNT scaffold has good biocompatibility and can be further applied to neural tissue engineering research.  相似文献

In our study, the mechanical properties and degradability of vascular grafts made from poly(ε-caprolactone)(PCL) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)(PLGA) at different ratios were investigated. The results showed that the electrospun PCL/PLGA grafts possess good mechanical properties and biodegradability. The tensile and burst strength of the scaffolds met the demands of vascular grafts. In vitro degradation tests indicated that the degradation rate of the materials increased with the percentage of PLGA, and in vivo tests showed that increasing the amount of PLGA is an effective way to promote cell infiltration. Particularly, the electrospun PCL/PLGA blended scaffold with 10% PLGA exhibited a balance of mechanical and degradation properties, making it a promising tissue engineering material for vascular grafts.  相似文献

We investigated the structural behavior and bearing capacity of system scaffolds. The research showed that the critical load of a system scaffold structure without diagonal braces is similar to that of a door-shaped steel scaffold structure. Joint stiffness between vertical props in system scaffolds can be defined based on a comparison between analytical and experimental results. When the number of scaffold stories increases, the critical loads of system scaffolds decrease. Diagonal braces markedly enhance the critical load of system scaffolds. The coupling joint position between vertical props should be kept away from story-to-story joints to prevent a reduction in critical loads. The critical load of a system scaffold decreases as the quantity of extended vertical props at the bottom of the structure increases. A large Christmas tree set up by system scaffolds under various loads was used as an example for analysis and to check the design of system scaffolds.  相似文献

High-temperature coal tar was extracted with petroleum ether(PE) under ultrasonic irradiation and the extracts were analyzed with gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer.The acearylene fractions including acenaphthylene,aceanthrylene and cyclopentapyrene were enriched together and named E,which was then transferred to a cartridge in Isolera-One flash chromatography.Three groups of compounds were eluted out with ethyl acetate/PE mixed solvent(volume ratio 1:9) and named E 1,E 2 and E 3 according to their main components.Acenaphthylene accounted for 78.2% in E 1,aceanthrylene 71.6% in E 2 and cyclopentapyrene 75.9% in E 3,respectively.The three groups of acearylenes were purified by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography with ethanol/cyclohexane mixed solvent(volume ratio 1:4),and then confirmed with nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer.This method indicates that flash chromatography has a good effect on separating the compounds with a similar structure after extraction under ultrasonic irradiation.  相似文献

Bubble formation in an opposite-flowing T-shaped microchannel with 40 μm in depth and 120 μm in width was real-time visualized and investigated experimentally by means of a high speed camera. N2 bubbles were generated in glycerol-water mixtures with different concentrations of surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). And the images were captured by the high speed camera linked to a computer. Results indicated that the bubble formation process can be distinguished into three consecutive stages, i.e., expansion, collapse and pinching off. The bubble size decreases with the increase of liquid flow rate and viscosity of liquid phase as well as the decrease of gas flow rate. The surface tension of the liquid phase has no measurable influence on the bubble size. Moreover, a new approach to predicting the size of bubbles formed in the T-shaped microchannel is proposed. And the predicted values agree well with the experimental data.  相似文献

It is a severe challenge to construct 3D scaf- folds which hold controllable pore structure and similar morphology of the natural extracellular matrix （ECM）. In this study, a compound technology is proposed by com- bining the 3D bioprinting and electrospinning process to fabricate 3D scaffolds, which are composed by orthogonal array gel microfibers in a grid-like arrangement and inter- calated by a nonwoven structure with randomly distributed polycaprolactone （PCL） nanofibers. Human adipose- derived stem cells （hASCs） are seeded on the hierarchical scaffold and cultured 21 d for in vitro study. The results of cells culturing show that the microfibers structure with controlled pores can allow the easy entrance of cells and the efficient diffusion of nutrients, and the nanofiber webs layered in the scaffold can significantly improve initial cell attachment and proliferation. The present work demon- strates that the hierarchical PCL/gel scaffolds consisting of controllable 3D architecture with interconnected pores and biomimetic nanofiber structures resembling the ECM can be designed and fabricated by the combination of 3D bioprinting and electrospinning to improve biological per- formance in tissue engineering applications.  相似文献

Bearing Capacity of Mixed Pile with Stiffness Core   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
To study load transfer mechanism and bearing capacity of a mixed pile with stiffness core (MPSC), which is formed by inserting a precast reinforced concrete pile (PRCP), in-situ tests involving MPSCs with different lengths, diameters, water cement ratios and PRCPs, cement mixed piles, and drilling hole piles, were carried out. Limit bearing capacities, load-settlement curves and stress distribution of MPSCs and mixed piles were obtained. The load transfer between cement soil and PRCP was analyzed by finite element method (FEM). Test results and FEM analysis show that an MPSC has fully utilized the big friction from a cement mixed pile and the high compressive strength from a PRCP which transfers outer top load into the inner cement soil, and that inserting a PRCP into a mixed pile changes the stress distribution of a mixed pile and improves frictional resistance between a mixed pile and soil. The length and the section area on PRCP of an MPSC both have an optimum value. Adopting MPSC is effective in improving the bearing capacity of soft soil ground.  相似文献

Interaction Between DEHP and Particulate in a Eutrophic Lake   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
Characteristics of interaction between di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate(DEHP) and particulate in a eutrophic lake were studied in this paper. DEHP concentrations ranged from 89.9 to 247 μg/L with an average value of 146 μg/L in subsurface water (SSW) samples, and from 82.0 to 390 μg/L with an average value of 211 μg/L in water surface microlayer (SM) samples. The results indicate that there was only a weak correlation between the DEHP concentrations and suspended particulate material(SPM) concentrations in both SSW and SM,while the significant correlation between DEHP concentrations and chlorophyll a concentrations was found,which suggestes that DEHP was principally bound to phytoplankton in the eutrophic lake. Correlation between DEHP concentrations and total phosphor (TP) concentrations was also found in this investigation. Enrichment factors (EF) of DEHP in SM were in the range of 0.85 to 2.12 with an average value of 1.35..DEHP EFs were significantly related to the enrichment of chlorophyll a in SM. The results suggest that the enrichment of DEHP in SM of this eutrophic lake was mainly due to DEHP accumulation in phytoplankton and was controlled by distribution of phytoplankton between SM and SSW.  相似文献

The simultaneous sorption behavior and characteristics of cadmium (Cd) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) on rice straw biochar were investigated. Isotherms of Cd and SMX were well modeled by the Langmuir equation (R2 >0.95). The calculated maximum adsorption parameter (Q) of Cd was similar in single and binary systems (34129.69 and 35919.54 mg/kg, respectively). However, the Q of SMX in a binary system (9182.74 mg/kg) was much higher than that in a single system (1827.82 mg/kg). The presence of Cd significantly promoted the sorption of SMX on rice straw biochar. When the pH ranged from 3 to 7.5, the sorption of Cd had the characteristics of a parabola pattern with maximum adsorption at pH 5, while the adsorption quantity of SMX decreased with increasing pH, with maximum adsorption at pH 3. The amount of SMX adsorbed on biochar was positively correlated with the surface area of the biochar, and the maximum adsorption occurred with d 250 biochar (biochar with a diameter of 150-250 μm). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) showed that the removal of Cd and SMX by rice straw biochar may be attributed to precipitation and the formation of surface complexes between Cd or SMX and carboxyl or hydroxyl groups. The results of this study indicate that rice straw biochar has the potential for simultaneous removal of Cd and SMX from co-contaminated water.  相似文献

A derivative ratio spectrophotometric method was used for the simultaneous determination of β-carotene and astaxanthin produced from Phaffia rhodozyma. Absorbencies of a series of the standard carotenoids in the range of 441 nm to 490nm demonstrated that their absorptive spectra accorded with Beer's law and that the additivity when the concentrations of β-carotene and astaxanthin and their mixture were within the range of 0 to 5 μg/ml, 0 to 6 μg/ml, and 0 to 6 μg/ml, respectively.When the wavelength interval (△λ) at 2 nm was selected to calculate the first derivative ratio spectra values, the first derivative amplitudes at 461 nm and 466 nm were suitable for quantitatively determining β-carotene and astaxanthin, respectively. Effect of divisor on derivative ratio spectra could be neglected; any concentration used as divisor in range of 1.0 to 4.0 μg/ml is ideal for calculating the derivative ratio spectra values of the two carotenoids. Calibration graphs were established for β-carotene within 0-6.0 μg/ml and for astaxanthin within 0-5.0 μg/ml with their corresponding regressive equations in: y=-0.0082x-0.0002 and y=0.0146x-0.0006, respectively. R-square values in excess of 0.999 indicated the good linearity of the calibration graphs. Sample recovery rates were found satisfactory (＞99%) with relative standard deviations (RSD) of less than 5%. This method was successfully applied to simultaneous determination of β-carotene and astaxanthin in the laboratory-prepared mixtures and the extract from the Phaffia rhodozyma culture.  相似文献

Interfacing and compatibility are the most challenging issues that affect the performance of polymer modified asphalt. Mechanisms of interfacial enhancement among four base asphalt components(asphaltenes, resins, aromatics, and saturate), styrene-butadiene-styrene(SBS), and carbon nanotubes(CNTs) were investigated by molecular dynamics simulation, with the aim of understanding the key parameters that control the compatibility of CNTs and interphase behavior on the molecular scale. The compatibility of SBS-modified asphalt(SBSMA) was simulated based on self-assembly theory using indexes of binding energy, mean square displacement, diffusion coefficient, and relative concentration distribution. The interphase behavior and microstructure were observed by fluorescence microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. In addition, a rutting experiment was used to verify the molecular dynamics simulation based on macroscopic performance. The results showed that after adding CNTs, the binding energy of the SBS and aromatics increased from 301.8343 to 327.1102 kcal/mol. The diffusion coefficient of the SBS and asphaltenes decreased more than 3.2×10-11 m2/s, and the correlation coefficients between the diffusion coefficient and the molecular weight, surface area and volume were all lower than 0.3. Relative concentration distribution curves indicated that CNTs promote the ability of SBS to swell. Microscopic observations demonstrated that the swelling ability of SBS was increased by CNTs. Overall, the interphase of SBSMA was improved by the additional reinforcement, swelling, and diffusion provided by CNTs. Finally, the rutting experiment found that no matter what the temperature, the rutting factor of CNT/SBSMA is higher than that of SBSMA, which corroborates the findings from the molecular dynamics simulations.  相似文献

Microcapsules of volatile oil containing Herba Schizonepetae(VOHS) were prepared by emulsion solvent diffusion method to improve the drug loading and reduce the amount of pharmaceutical excipients.Orthogonal assay was applied to optimize the preparation condition of microcapsulation,and the results illustrated that the ratio of ethyl cellulose(EC) to VOHS influenced the property of VOHS microcapsule significantly.GC-MS analysis indicated that some volatile components with low concentration in VOHS were lost after microencapsulation.The microcapsules prepared with optimum condition had good fluidity,and the holes on the surface of the microcapsules contributed to the release of VOHS.The particles of the microcapsule conformed to a normal distribution with the diameter of 45—220 μm.In the simulated intestinal fluid containing 0.2% sodium dodecyl sulfate,pulegone in VOHS microcapsule showed a certain degree of slow release.Compared with β-cyclodextrin method,the microencapsulation used in the present work could reduce the amount of excipients and increase the drug loading.It was beneficial to reduce the dose of Chinese medicines containing volatile oils.  相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system was used in the reversed phase mode for the determination of benzalkonium chloride (BKC) in azithromycin viscous ophthalmic drops. A Venusil-XBP(L)-C_(18) (150 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) column was used at 50 ℃. The mobile phase consisted of a mixture of methanol-potassium phosphate (16:5, v/v). Two sample preparation methods were compared. The results suggested that, compared with an extraction procedure, a deproteinization procedure was much quicker and more convenient. Using the deproteinization procedure for sample preparation, calibration curves were linear in the range 5.0～50 μg/ml. The within-day and inter-day coefficients of variation were less than 10%. The average recoveries were determined as 96.70%, 98.52%, and 97.96% at concentrations of 10.0, 30.0, and 50.0 μg/ml, respectively. Variability in precision did not exceed 5%. In conclusion, this HPLC method using a simple sample treatment procedure appears suitable for monitoring BKC content in azithromycin viscous ophthalmic drops.  相似文献

We investigated the effects of fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) on growth performance and humoral immune response of the large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea R.). One thousand and two hundred large yellow croakers [initial average weight: (162.75±23.85) g] were divided into four groups and reared in floating sea cages (3 m×3 m×3 m). The animals were fed with 4 diets: basal diet only (control) or diets supplemented with 5%, 10% and 15% (w/w) FPH. The results show that dietary FPH levels significantly influenced the growth and immunity of the large yellow croaker. Compared with the control group, total weight gain (TWG) in all treatment groups, relative weight gain (RWG) and specific growth rate (SGR) in fish fed with diets supplemerited with 10% and 15% FPH were significantly increased (P＜0.05). Similar results were observed in immune parameters [lysozyme activity, serum complements, immunoglobulin M (IgM)]. Lysozyme activity, complement C4 and IgM were also significantly increased (P＜0.05) in fish fed with diets supplemented with 10% and 15% FPH, while complement C3 level was significantly increased (P＜0.05) in all treatment groups. In general, with the supplementation of FPH, particularly at dose of 10%,the growth performance and immunity of the large yellow croaker can be improved effectively.  相似文献

Endothelial cell death due to increased reactive oxygen species(ROS) may contribute to the initial endothelial injury,which promotes atherosclerotic lesion formation.Piper sarmentosum(PS),a natural product,has been shown to have an antioxidant property,which is hypothesized to inhibit production of ROS and prevent cell injury.Thus,the present study was designed to determine the effects of PS on the hydrogen peroxide(H2O2)-induced oxidative cell damage in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).In this experiment,HUVECs were obtained by collagenase perfusion of the large vein in the umbilical cord and cultured in medium M200 supplemented with low serum growth supplementation(LSGS).HUVECs were treated with various concentrations of H2O2(0-1000 μmol/L) and it was observed that 180 μmol/L H2O2 reduced cell viability by 50% as denoted by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) assay.Using the above concentration as the positive control,the H2O2-induced HUVECs were concomitantly treated with various concentrations(100,150,250 and 300 μg/ml) of three different extracts(aqueous,methanol and hexane) of PS.Malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),catalase(CAT) and glutathione peroxidase(GPX) levels showed a significant increase(P0.05) in HUVECs compared to the negative control.However,PS extracts showed a protective effect on HUVECs from H2O2-induced cell apoptosis with a significant reduction in MDA,SOD,CAT and GPX levels(P0.05).Furthermore,PS had exhibited ferric reducing antioxidant power with its high phenolic content.Hence,it was concluded that PS plays a beneficial role in reducing oxidative stress in H2O2-induced HUVECs.  相似文献

The time series of velocity vector fields and their statistics in the turbulent boundary layer(TBL)over riblets and smooth plate were measured by utilizing a time-resolved particle image velocimetry(TR-PIV)system. The mean velocity profiles of the TBL were compared in the case of 0.13 m/s(the riblets with dimensionless peakto-peak spacing being approximately s?≈21)and 0.19 m/s( s?≈28)for these two kinds of plates, respectively. Two kinds of drag-reducing velocity profiles were illustrated and analyzed. Then the spatial topologies of the physical vorticity for the coherent spanwise structures were detected and extracted at the fourth scale by utilizing an improved quadrant splitting method(IQSM). Results revealed that nearly 6.17%, and 10.73%, of a drag reduction was separately achieved over the riblets surface. Besides, it was visualized that the drag-reduction was acquired by the riblets influencing the bursting ejection(Q2)and sweep(Q4)events of the coherent spanwise vortex structures, the Q4 events in particular. Based on such two drag-reducing cases of the riblets, lastly, a simplified KelvinHelmholtz-like linear instability model proposed initially by García-Mayoral and Jiménez(2011)has been discussed. It is still difficult to establish with certainty whether the observed phenomena, the appearance of coherent spanwise structures found at around or below y?≈20 in both cases of s?≈21 and s?≈28 and their topological changes, were consequences or causes of the breakdown of the viscous regime. We prefer to suggest that the interactions between those structures and the riblets, which contain the coherent spanwise structures extending toward the wall and penetrating into the riblet grooves, are the root causes.  相似文献

Amorphous InGaZnO (a-IGZO) film is deposited on the glass substrate by radio-frequency sputtering and the influence of annealing on wet etch of a-IGZO films were investigated.The results show that etch rate of IGZO films decrease with the increase of annealing temperature.Etching taper angle is less than 60 and critical dimension (CD) loss is less than 1 μm in over-etching time of 30 s.The fact implies that IGZO films etching with oxalic acid may be a good wet etching way for the thin-film transistor (TFT) ...  相似文献

Sedum alfredii Hance has been identified as zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) co-hyperaccumulator. In this paper the relationships of Zn or Cd hyperaccumulation to the generation and the role of H2O2 in Sedum alfredii H. were examined, The results show that Zn and Cd contents in the shoots of Sedum alfredii H. treated with 1000 μmol/L Zn2 and/or 200 μmol/L Cd2 increased linearly within 15 d. Contents of total S, glutathione (GSH) and H2O2 in shoots also increased within 15 d, and then decreased. Total S and GSH contents in shoots were higher under Cd2 treatment than under Zn2 treatment. However, reverse trends of H2O2 content in shoots were obtained, in which much higher H2O2 content was observed in Zn2 -treated shoots than in Cd2 -treated shoots. Similarly, the microscopic imaging of H2O2 accumulation in leaves using H2O2 probe technique showed that much higher H2O2 accumulation was observed in the Zn2 -treated leaf than in the Cd2 -treated one. These results suggest that there are different responses in the generation of H2O2 upon exposure to Zn2 and Cd2 for the hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii H. And this is the first report that the generation of H2O2 may play an important role in Zn hyperaccumulation in the leaves. Oar results also imply that GSH may play an important role in the detoxification of dissociated Zn/Cd and the generation of H2O2.  相似文献

Purpose: To verify whether there exists any difference in higher order aberrations after undergoing myopic LASIK (laser in situ keratomileusis) with conventional ablation and customized ablation in different eyes of the same patient. Methods: This was a prospective randomized study of 54 myopic eyes (27 patients) that underwent LASIK using the Nidek EC-5000 ex-cimer laser system (Nidek, Gamagori, Japan). Topography-guided customized aspheric treatment zone (CATz) was used in the first eye of the patient (study group) and the other eye of the same patient was operated on with conventional ablation (control group). Higher order aberrations [root-mean-square (RMS) in the 5-mm zone] of both groups were observed with the Nidek OPD-Scan aberrometer before and 3 months after LASIK. Preoperative mean refractive error was similar between two eyes of the same patient (t=?0.577, P>0.05). Results: Preoperatively, higher order aberrations (RMS in the 5-mm zone) in the CATz ablation and conventional groups were (0.3600±0.0341) μm and (0.2680±0.1421) μm, respectively. This difference was not statistically significant (t=1.292, P>0.05). Three months after LASIK, higher order aberrations (RMS in 5-mm zone) in the CATz ablation and conventional groups were (0.3627±0.1510) μm and (0.3991±0.1582) μm, respectively. No statistically significant difference was noted between pre- and postoperative higher order aberrations in the CATz group (t=?0.047, P>0.05). However, a statistically significant increase in higher order aberrations was observed after conventional ablation (t=?5.261, P<0.05). A statistically sig-nificant difference was noted in the increase of higher order aberrations after LASIK between groups (t=?2.050, P=0.045). Con-clusion: LASIK with conventional ablation and topography-guided CATz ablation resulted in the same BSCVA (best specta-cle-corrected visual acuity) 3 month after LASIK. Higher order aberrations were increased, but the increase of higher order ab-errations after customized ablation treatment was less than that after conventional ablation.  相似文献

The effect of Al and Cd on the growth, photosynthesis, and accumulation of Al, Cd and plant nutrients in two soybean genotypes were determined using hydroponic culture. There were six treatments: pH 6.5; pH 4.0; pH 6.5 1.0 μmol/L Cd; pH 4.0 1.0 μmol/L Cd; pH 4.0 150 μmol/L Al; pH 4.0 1.0 μmol/L Cd 150 μmol/L Al. The low pH (4.0) and Al treatments caused marked reduction in root length, shoot height, dry weight, chlorophyll content (SPAD value) and photosynthetic rate. Al-sensitive cv. Zhechun 2 accumulated comparatively more Al and Cd in plants than Al-tolerant cv. Liao 1. Compared with pH 6.5, pH 4.0 resulted in significant increase in Cd and Al concentration in plants. Combined application of Cd and Al enhanced their accu-mulation in roots, but caused a reduction in shoots. The concentrations of all 10 nutrients (P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn and B), except Mo were also increased when plants were exposed to pH lower than pH 6.5. Al addition caused a reduction in the con-centration of most nutrients in plant roots and shoots; but K, Mn and Zn in roots were increased. Treatments with Cd alone or together with Al reduced the concentrations of all the plant nutrients in plants. Al-sensitive genotype Zhechun 2 has lower nutrient concentration than Al-tolerant genotype Liao 1. The current findings imply that Al and Cd are synergistic in their effect on plant growth, physiological traits and nutrient uptake.  相似文献
