According to the whole blood clotting test, the coated chitosan sponges showed a significantly high rate of blood clotting due to the addition of thrombin. On the other hand, the storable half-life of immobilized thrombin is extended to 66.9 days at room temperature, which is 8.5 times longer than unfixed thrombin. It is because of the immobilization effect of, not only the porous structure of chitosan sponge but also the interactions between thrombin and tannic acid. In addition, the tannic acid has similar antibacterial effect to chitosan. Therefore, it is an excellent combination of chitosan, thrombin and tannic acid. Besides, all of materials in this research have been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration(FDA). So the chitosan-based sponge is a promising candidate dressing for uncontrolled hemorrhage due to its storable, bio-safe and highly effective hemostatic properties.展开更多

UV-vis measurement revealed that the absorbance has linearity with the bilayer number from layer to layer and the X ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) confirmed the existence of Tb 3+ ion. The pH of both the polymer and TbCl 3 solutions influence the thickness dramatically while the concentration of the solutions is not so sensitive. The luminescent spectrum of the complex film shows the characteristic emission of Tb 3+ ion as well as the ligand indicating the formation of the complex.展开更多

Self-assembly technology was employed to prepare an antibacterial composite coating by fixing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto the surface of magnesium alloys. The AgNPs were immobilized on the surface of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS)-modified magnesium alloy AZ31 (APTMS/Mg) through electrosta- tic inter-attraction between partially protonated amino groups and negatively charged citrate-capped AgNPs, resulting in the AgNPs attached APTMS/Mg (AgNPs/APTMS/Mg) substrate. The prepared Ag colloid and functionalized AZ31 alloy were characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electrochemical methods. Finally, the bactericidal activity of AgNPs/APTMS/Mg substrate against Escherichia coli was assessed by the inhibition zone. The results demonstrated that Si-O-Si covalent bonds existed on the substrate with the formation of inorganic Si-O-Mg bonds. AgNPs were immobilized and well-dispersed, forming a uniform submonolayer on the silane film in two dimensions. The AgNPs/APTMS-pretreated AZ31 alloys exhibited better corrosion resistance and excellent antibacterial performance.展开更多

Results show that crystallization in the absence of monolayer results in a mixture of poorly crystallized calcium phosphates, including hydroxyapatite (HAP) and octacalcium phosphate (OCP), while the presence of self assembled monolayer gives rise to oriented and well crystallized HAP crystals. Moreover, the HAP crystal grows very quickly under the self assembled monolayer, whereas very little calcium phosphate crystals grow without the monolayer. It is rationalized that the hexadecylamine monolayer with high polarity and charged density leads to increase supersaturation and lower the interfacial energy, which attributes to the HAP crystals nucleation. On the other hand, the positive headgroups construct the ordered "recognized site" with distinct size and topology, which results in the oriented HAP crystals deposit.展开更多

Here, we provide a novel micro/nano-assembling method, which is accurate and efficient, especially suitable for the fabrication of micro/nano-scale electronic devices. Using this method, a self-powered ZnO/Sb-doped ZnO nanowire p–n homojunction ultraviolet detector(UVD) was fabricated, and the detailed photoelectric properties were tested. At a reverse bias of -0.1 V under UV light illumination, the photoresponse sensitivity of the UVD was 26.5 and the rise/decay time of the UVD was as short as 30 ms. The micro/nano-assembling method has wide potential applications in the fabrication of specific micro/nano-scale electronic devices.展开更多

Surface and morphological characterizations were studied by Fourier transformed in-frared spectroscopy (FTIR), water contact angle measurement and atomic force microscopy (AFM). And the elec-trochemical study on the corrosion inhihition of the SAMs was performed by polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (E1S) for evaluating the corrosion protection of the SAMs. The results show that TDPA was able to form a film spontaneously on the SS430 surface and the hydrophobic SAMs could protect SS430 from corrosion effectively. In addition, the oxide surface formed by the heat pretreatment could accelerate the rate of ad-sorption, but had little effect on improving the inhibition efficiency.展开更多

文摘In order to prepare a novel hemostatic dressing for uncontrolled hemorrhage, a porous chitosan sponge was coated with self-assembled(thrombin/tannic acid)n films, which were based on hydrogen bonding interactions between thrombin and tannic acid at physiologic p H. According to the whole blood clotting test, the coated chitosan sponges showed a significantly high rate of blood clotting due to the addition of thrombin. On the other hand, the storable half-life of immobilized thrombin is extended to 66.9 days at room temperature, which is 8.5 times longer than unfixed thrombin. It is because of the immobilization effect of, not only the porous structure of chitosan sponge but also the interactions between thrombin and tannic acid. In addition, the tannic acid has similar antibacterial effect to chitosan. Therefore, it is an excellent combination of chitosan, thrombin and tannic acid. Besides, all of materials in this research have been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration(FDA). So the chitosan-based sponge is a promising candidate dressing for uncontrolled hemorrhage due to its storable, bio-safe and highly effective hemostatic properties.

文摘A mixed self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of thioctic acid (T-COOH) and thioctic acid amide (T-NH2) were used to immobilize tyrosinase for fabricating biosensor. The results showed that the mixed SAMs prepared from solution at the ratio of 1:4 provided an excellent microenvironment for enzymatic reaction between tyrosinase and substrate. The biosensor exhibited a fast response and high sensitivity for sensing substrate.

文摘Nowadays, fabrication of micro/nano-scale electronic devices with bottom-up approach is paid much research attention. Here, we provide a novel micro/nano-assembling method, which is accurate and efficient, especially suitable for the fabrication of micro/nano-scale electronic devices. Using this method, a self-powered ZnO/Sb-doped ZnO nanowire p–n homojunction ultraviolet detector(UVD) was fabricated, and the detailed photoelectric properties were tested. At a reverse bias of -0.1 V under UV light illumination, the photoresponse sensitivity of the UVD was 26.5 and the rise/decay time of the UVD was as short as 30 ms. The micro/nano-assembling method has wide potential applications in the fabrication of specific micro/nano-scale electronic devices.

文摘Hybrid self-assembled multilayer films were prepared by alternate adsorption of 1,10-diaminodecane (1,10-DAD) and Keggin polyoxometalates of SiW12O404-, SiW11VO405-, and PMo12O403-, respectively. The films were reproducibly grown at each adsorption cycle as monitored by UV spectroscopy.
文摘The self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of 1 tetradecylphosphonic acid (TDPA) formed on the 430 stain-less steel (SS430)were studied. Surface and morphological characterizations were studied by Fourier transformed in-frared spectroscopy (FTIR), water contact angle measurement and atomic force microscopy (AFM). And the elec-trochemical study on the corrosion inhihition of the SAMs was performed by polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (E1S) for evaluating the corrosion protection of the SAMs. The results show that TDPA was able to form a film spontaneously on the SS430 surface and the hydrophobic SAMs could protect SS430 from corrosion effectively. In addition, the oxide surface formed by the heat pretreatment could accelerate the rate of ad-sorption, but had little effect on improving the inhibition efficiency.
文摘Self assembled monolayers (SAMs) of to-mercapto methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)(MPEG) on gold electrode were used as a means to detect dopamine. Dopamine (DA) had good response at the MPEG film electrode and ascorbic acid (AA) was repelled from the SAMs. TheMPEG film is a biocompatible film, there was no adsorption of biosample and no inactivation atelectrode surface when it was used to detect DA in biosamples.

文摘Block copolymer lithography is emerging as one of the leading technologies for patteming nanoscale dense features. In almost all potential applications of this technology, control over the orientation of cylindrical and lamellar domains is required for pattern transfer from the block copolymer film. This review highlights the state-of-art development of brushes to modify the substrates to control the assembly behaviors of block copolymers in films. Selected important contributions to the development of self-assembled monolayers, polymer brushes and mats, and chemically patterned brushes are discussed.
