A novel polydopamine-graft-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PDA-g-PMOXA) coating was prepared by immobilizing poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMOXA) onto material surfaces through polydopamine (PDA) anchored coating ...A novel polydopamine-graft-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PDA-g-PMOXA) coating was prepared by immobilizing poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMOXA) onto material surfaces through polydopamine (PDA) anchored coating for the first time. And then, the chemical composition, hydrophilicity, and protein-resistant properties of the PDA-g-PMOXA coating were studied using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), contact angel (CA) test, surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) measurement. Finally, the coating was applied to the capillary inner surface for protein separation by capillary electrophoresis (CE).展开更多

The effect of the added amounts of reactants on the mesostructural and magnetic properties of the magnetic mesoporous silica was inves- tigated, It was determined that the synthesized magnetic mesoporous silica with a total pore volume of 0.64-0.96 cm3/g and an average pore diameter of 4.0-14,9 nm had a relatively high saturation mag- netization value (1.11-5.77 emu/g) and a large surface area (258-747 m2/g), Lysozyme was chosen as a model protein to test the performance of the magnetic mesoporous silica as a protein adsorbent, The high adsorption capacity (up to 212 mg/g) suggested a promising future as bimolecular hosts for the magnetic mesoporous silica.展开更多
文摘In this paper, a new theory for the dynamic properties of protein molecular system have been proposed by means of the analysis of the characteristics of the collective excitations generated under the localized fluctuation and the deformation of structure of the protein. Some new results obtained from this study show that the Davydov theory is an approximate and disadvantegeous theory.
