Results showed that the RR of the two loess-paleosol sequences had positive, highlysignificant (P < 0.01) correlations with: 1) citrate-bicarbonate-dithionite (CBD) extracted iron(Fe_d), 2) ratios of CBD extracted iron to total iron (Fe_d/Fet), 3) clay (< 2 mum), and 4) magneticsusceptibility (x). This suggested that the RR of these loess-paleosol sequences could indicatedegreesof loess weathering and pedogenesis and were potential paleo-climatic proxies. The strongcorrelations of RR to Fe_d and x also implied that during pedogenic processes, pedogenic hematite inloess and paleosols were closely related to the amount of total secondary iron oxides and pedogenicferrimagnetic minerals (predominantly maghemite).展开更多

Three mAbs(9F5, 2F11, 8C12) were produced from the ascites of Balb/c mice injected intraperitoneally the hybridoma cells and characterized by means of a surface plasmon resonance(SPR) biosensor. An optimal and specific sensing membrane for troponin I was prepared with staphylococcal protein A(SPA) as the intermediate layer and mAb against human cTnI as the capture antibody. On the basis of the sensing membrane, two modes of operation of the SPR biosensor were developed, i.e ., a direct detection of antigen antibody affinity and a sandwich assay. In the sandwich assay detection mode, the mAbs competition was measured by monitoring whether the secondary antibody had been attached to the cTnI already captured by the first antibody on the sensor surface. The SPR biosensor was shown to be able to directly detect the antigen antibody affinity and the order of the affinity was found to be 9F5>2F11>8C12. In the sandwich detection mode, it was found that the different epitopes on the cTnI molecules were recognized by the three mAbs respectively, but the asymmetrical competition was shown between 2F11 and 8C12 and no competition was found between 9F5 and 2F11 or 8c12. Based on these results, a double monoclonal sandwich immunoassay for cTnI was developed by using the optimal antibody pair of 9F5 and 2F11 and the SPR biosensor with SPA substrate membrane, which showed an excellent sensitivity of 0.8 μg/L for both the buffer and the serum samples compared with the direct detection of cTnI for the buffer with the lowest detection limit of 4 μg/L and conventional ELISA with the sensitivity of 1.9 μg/L.展开更多
