Surface roughness and surface morphology of Ni-Cr alloys were evaluated by surface profiler and scanning electron microscopy after being immersed in different concentrations of H2O2 for 112 h. Surface corrosion products of Ni-Cr alloys were analyzed by photoelectron spectrograph after being immersed in 0% and 30% H2O2. The order of increasing surface roughness of Ni-Cr alloys after being immersed in different concentrations of H2O2 was 0〈3.6%〈10%〈30%. As the concentration of hydrogen peroxide increased, the surface roughness of Ni-Cr alloys increased and the surface morphology showed different degrees of corrosion. According to the XPS results, the corrosion products formed on the outmost surface layer of the studied samples are Ni(OH)2 and BeO.展开更多

[Methods] The cardiomyocytes of neonatal rats were isolated and cultured,and the H_2O_2 induced cardiomyocyte injury model was established. Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium( MTT) assay was used to detect the protective effects of Roudoukou-8 San extract on H_2O_2 induced cardiomyocyte. The effects of Roudoukou-8 San on cardiomyocyte morphology were observed under inverted microscope. The contents of lactate dehydrogenase( LDH),creatine kinase( CK) and aspartate aminotransferase( AST) in cell culture medium were determined by automatic biochemical instrument; the levels of malondialdehyde( MDA),superoxide dismutase( SOD) and nitric oxide( NO) in the cells were detected by kit method. The apoptotic morphology of cardiomyocytes was observed by Hoechst fluorescence staining.Cell apoptosis were measured by Annexin V and PI double staining and flow cytometer. [Results]100 μmol/L of H_2O_2 acting 2 h could cause about 50% of cardiomyocyte injury. H_2O_2 model group showed increased cell gap,decreased cell count,cell cytoplasmic vacuoles and other obvious damages. Compared with H_2O_2 model group,in Roudoukou-8 San extract dose groups,cardiomyocyte morphology showed different degrees of improvement,Roudoukou-8 San extract can significantly reduce the content of LDH,CK and AST in H_2O_2 injured myocardial cell culture solution,significantly reduce content of MDA and NO in H_2O_2 injured myocardial cells,increase the SOD activity,and significantly inhibit the apoptosis of H_2O_2 injured myocardial cells. [Conclusions]Through improving the cell survival status,increasing the cell viability,reducing oxidative stress injury,inhibiting inflammatory responses,and inhibiting apoptosis,Roudoukou-8 San extract can improve the state of H_2O_2 induced cardiomyocyte injury,so as to protect H_2O_2 injured myocardial cells.展开更多

The percentage of sperm comet cells and the comet tail lengths were measured in the treated sperm cells by using SCGE. Results Both percentage of comet sperm nuclei and mean tail length in sperm cells exposed to 0.5 mmol/L hydrogen peroxide with different concentrations of NAC decrease significantly in a dose dependent manner as compared with sperm cells exposed to H 2O 2 without NAC or catalase. Although mean tail length in sperm cells exposed to 5.0 mmol/L of β NADPH with different concentrations of NAC decreases significantly compared with sperm cells exposed to β NADPH without NAC or SOD, there were no significant differences on the percentage of sperm comet cells between sperm cells exposed to 5.0 mmol/L of β NADPH with different concentrations of NAC and sperm cells exposed to 5.0 mmol/L of β NADPH without NAC. Conclusion NAC has a protective effect on exogenous hydrogen peroxide induced DNA damage, while protective effect of NAC against O - 2 induced DNA strand breakage is significant but very weak.展开更多

Methods: All experiments included 4 groups: (1) negative control (NC) group, without any treatment; (2) H202 treatment group, 100 μmol/L H202 treatment for 24 h; (3) and (4) parecoxib pre- treatment groups, 80 and 160 μmol/L parecoxib treatment for 24 h, respectively, and then treated with 100 μmol/L H202. Several indices were investigated, and the expressions of Bax, Bcl-2, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were quantified. Results: Compared to the NC group, exposure to H202 resulted in significant morphological changes, which could be reversed by pretreatment of parecoxib. In addition, H202 treatment led to loss of viability (P=0.026) and increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels (P〈0.001), and induced apoptosis (P〈0.01) in the primary astrocytes relative to the NC group. However, in the parecoxib pretreatment groups, all the above changes reversed significantly (P〈0.05) as compared to the H202 treatment group, and were nearly unchanged when compared to the NC group. Mechanical investigation showed that dysregulated Bax, Bcl-2, and BDNF could be im- plicated in these changes. Conclusions: Our results indicated that parecoxib provided a protective effect from oxidative stress induced by exposure to H202.展开更多

The present study was to investigate the protective effects of Daji (Cirsiumjaponicum) polysaccharide extracts (CJP) against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) shock in rat H9c2 myocardial cells. First,CJP was isolated by hot water extraction and ethanol precipitation; it was then characterized by high performance liquidchromatography and infrared spectrum analysis. Rat H9c2 cells were subjected to H2O2 treatment to establish a cellinjury model. The 3- (4,5- dimethylthiazol- 2-yl)-2,5- diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay showed that CJP pretreatmentsignificantly ameliorated the H2O2 injury in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the cell apoptosis induced by H2O2was markedly inhibited by CJP pretreatment, whereas the cleavage level of caspase-3, -8, and -9 was reduced. Inaddition, the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway might be involved in the protective effect of CJP onmyocardial cells. Therefore, we conclude that polysaccharide extracts of Daji (Cirsium japonicum) protect rat H9c2myocardial cells from oxidative stress induced by H2O2.展开更多

PGA fibers are dipped in H_2O_2 solution a certain time for modification. Scanning electron microscopy( SEM) was used to observe the surface morphology of PGA fibers before and after modification. The varying of PGA macromolecule was examined with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy( FTIR) analyses. X-ray diffraction( XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry( DSC) analysis showed that crystallinity slightly decreases. Mechanical performance test showed tensile force of modified PGA fiber was increased. The water contact angle test indicated the improving of hydrophilic. A cell proliferation assay showed that fibroblast cells attach and proliferate well on the fibers, which meant the modified fibers possess good cytocompatibility. These results suggest that H_2O_2 surface modification is easy to operate and a advantageous modification method for PGA fibers.展开更多

Upon calculation, four conclusions have been drawn: (1) In the (H2O)3-5 clusters, cyclic configurations were confirmed to be the most stable. But in the (H2O)3-4 ones, only cyclic configurations could be observed. From n = 5 ((H2O)5 clusters), three-dimensional configuration could be found: (2) In the (H2O)6 clusters, all configurations are inclined to be three-dimensional except the most stable configuration which is cyclic; (3) The stable order of (H2O)6 clusters indicates that it is the arrangement of hydrogen bond that plays a decisive role in the cluster stabilities, the zero-point energy is also important, and cluster stabilities are independent on the number of hydrogen bonds; (4) There exist strong cooperativity and superadditivity in the (H2O)n clusters.展开更多

The reactivity of the carbon species at higher preadsorption temperature with H2 in TPSR decreased, whereas the carbon-containing species showed higher reactivity over Co/Al2O3 catalyst with low calcination temperature. This agreed well with the order of catalytic activity for F-T synthesis on this catalyst. The catalytic activity of the catalyst varied with reduction temperature and time remarkably. CODEX optimization gave an optimum reduction temperature of 756 K and reduction time of 6.2 h and estimated C5+ yield perfectly. The pretreatment of Co/Al2O3 catalyst with different reduction agents (hydrogen or syngas) showed important influences on the catalytic performance. A high CO conversion and C5+ yield were obtained on the catalyst reduced by hydrogen, whereas methane selectivity on the catalyst reduced by syngas was much higher than that on the catalyst reduced by hydrogen.展开更多

文摘The design of efficient heterogeneous catalysts in bicarbonate-activated hydrogen peroxide systems(BAP)is a hot topic in wastewater treatment.In this work,Cu_(2)O nanoparticles with different morphologies including cubic shape(c-Cu_(2)O),octahedron shape(o-Cu_(2)O)and spherical shape(s-Cu_(2)O),were applied in BAP for the first time to degrade tetracycline hydrochloride(TC).Compared with Cu^(2+)ions and CuO,TC degradation was boosted in the presence of Cu_(2)O in the BAP system,with the degradation rate following the order c-Cu_(2)O>o-Cu_(2)O>s-Cu_(2)O.The morphology-dependent effects could be linearly correlated with the ratio of surface oxygen species(O_S),but not with the surface area or Cu(Ⅰ)ratio.The c-Cu_(2)O catalyst with exposure of(100)facets contained 76.6%O_Sas the active site for H_(2)O_(2)adsorption and activation,while the value was much lower for o-Cu_(2)O and s-Cu_(2)O with dominant(111)facets.The presence of HCO_(3)-enhanced the interactions among Cu_(2)O,H_(2)O_(2)and TC,leading to facile oxidation of Cu(Ⅰ)to Cu(Ⅱ)by H_(2)O_(2),and the formation of various reactive species such as hydroxyl radicals and Cu(Ⅲ)contributed to TC degradation.This work provides a new method for enhancing H_(2)O_(2)activation with heterogeneous catalysts by crystal facet engineering.

文摘Objective: To investigate the protective effects of parecoxib from oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide (H202) in rat astrocytes in vitro. Methods: All experiments included 4 groups: (1) negative control (NC) group, without any treatment; (2) H202 treatment group, 100 μmol/L H202 treatment for 24 h; (3) and (4) parecoxib pre- treatment groups, 80 and 160 μmol/L parecoxib treatment for 24 h, respectively, and then treated with 100 μmol/L H202. Several indices were investigated, and the expressions of Bax, Bcl-2, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were quantified. Results: Compared to the NC group, exposure to H202 resulted in significant morphological changes, which could be reversed by pretreatment of parecoxib. In addition, H202 treatment led to loss of viability (P=0.026) and increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels (P〈0.001), and induced apoptosis (P〈0.01) in the primary astrocytes relative to the NC group. However, in the parecoxib pretreatment groups, all the above changes reversed significantly (P〈0.05) as compared to the H202 treatment group, and were nearly unchanged when compared to the NC group. Mechanical investigation showed that dysregulated Bax, Bcl-2, and BDNF could be im- plicated in these changes. Conclusions: Our results indicated that parecoxib provided a protective effect from oxidative stress induced by exposure to H202.
文摘Daji (Cirsium japonicum) has been applied against gastric disorders, lung diseases, and cardiovascular problems in thetraditional Chinese medicinal system. The present study was to investigate the protective effects of Daji (Cirsiumjaponicum) polysaccharide extracts (CJP) against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) shock in rat H9c2 myocardial cells. First,CJP was isolated by hot water extraction and ethanol precipitation; it was then characterized by high performance liquidchromatography and infrared spectrum analysis. Rat H9c2 cells were subjected to H2O2 treatment to establish a cellinjury model. The 3- (4,5- dimethylthiazol- 2-yl)-2,5- diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay showed that CJP pretreatmentsignificantly ameliorated the H2O2 injury in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the cell apoptosis induced by H2O2was markedly inhibited by CJP pretreatment, whereas the cleavage level of caspase-3, -8, and -9 was reduced. Inaddition, the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway might be involved in the protective effect of CJP onmyocardial cells. Therefore, we conclude that polysaccharide extracts of Daji (Cirsium japonicum) protect rat H9c2myocardial cells from oxidative stress induced by H2O2.

文摘Hydrogen peroxide( H_2O_2) is applied for surface modification of polyglycolic acid( PGA) fibers in order to enhance the hydrophilicity and cytocompatibility of PGA fibers effectively,and maintain the breaking strength as the same time. PGA fibers are dipped in H_2O_2 solution a certain time for modification. Scanning electron microscopy( SEM) was used to observe the surface morphology of PGA fibers before and after modification. The varying of PGA macromolecule was examined with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy( FTIR) analyses. X-ray diffraction( XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry( DSC) analysis showed that crystallinity slightly decreases. Mechanical performance test showed tensile force of modified PGA fiber was increased. The water contact angle test indicated the improving of hydrophilic. A cell proliferation assay showed that fibroblast cells attach and proliferate well on the fibers, which meant the modified fibers possess good cytocompatibility. These results suggest that H_2O_2 surface modification is easy to operate and a advantageous modification method for PGA fibers.

文摘Designing highly efficient photocatalyst for hydrogen peroxide(HO)production is an ideal strategy to avoid the shortcomings of traditional HOproduction and to realize the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy.In this work,a step-scheme(S-scheme)heterojunction photocatalyst composed of Zn O and WOis carefully prepared by hydrothermal and calcination method for efficient photocatalytic HOproduction.The ZW30 composite photocatalysts exhibit enhanced activity with the highest HO-production rate of 6788μmol Lh.The results show that the photocatalytic HOproduction process is dominated by a direct two-electron Oreduction pathway.The enhanced photocatalytic HO-production activity is attributed to the formation of interfacial internal electric field(IEF)in the S-scheme heterojunction,which boosts the spatial separation of charge carriers and enables electrons with the strongest reduction power to participate in HOproduction.This work provides an in-depth insight of the great advantages of S-scheme heterojunction in photocatalytic HOproduction.

文摘Excess crude glycerol derived as a by-product from biodiesel industry prompts the need to valorise glycerol to value-added chemicals.In this context,catalytic steam reforming of glycerol(SRG) was proposed as a promising and sustainable alternative for producing renewable hydrogen(H2).Herein,the development of nickel(Ni) supported on ceria-modified mesoporous γ-alumina(γ-Al2 O3) catalysts and their applications in catalytic SRG(at550-750℃ atmospheric pressure and weight hourly space velocity,WHSV,of 44,122 ml·g^-1·h^-1(STP)) is presented.Properties of the developed catalysts were characterised using many technique s.The findings show that ceria modification improved Ni dispersion on γ-Al2 O3 catalyst support with highly active small Ni particles,which led to a remarkable catalytic performance with the total glycerol conversion(ca.99%),glycerol conversion into gaseous products(ca.77%) and H2 yield(ca.62%).The formation rate for H2 production(14.4 ×10^(-5)mol·s^-1·g^-1, TOF(H2)=3412 s^-1) was significantly improved with the Ni@12 Ce-Al2 O3 catalyst,representing nearly a 2-fold increase compared with that of the conventional Ni@AI2 O3 catalyst.In addition,the developed catalyst also exhibited comparatively high stability(for 12 h) and coke resistance ability.

文摘The stable configurations and hydrogen bond nature of (H2O)n clusters (n = 3-6) have been investigated by the B3LYP method at the 6-31++g^** level. Upon calculation, four conclusions have been drawn: (1) In the (H2O)3-5 clusters, cyclic configurations were confirmed to be the most stable. But in the (H2O)3-4 ones, only cyclic configurations could be observed. From n = 5 ((H2O)5 clusters), three-dimensional configuration could be found: (2) In the (H2O)6 clusters, all configurations are inclined to be three-dimensional except the most stable configuration which is cyclic; (3) The stable order of (H2O)6 clusters indicates that it is the arrangement of hydrogen bond that plays a decisive role in the cluster stabilities, the zero-point energy is also important, and cluster stabilities are independent on the number of hydrogen bonds; (4) There exist strong cooperativity and superadditivity in the (H2O)n clusters.

文摘The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of preadsorbed CO at different temperatures, calcination temperatures, the combined influence of reduction temperature and time, and pretreatment using hydrogen or syngas as reduction agents on the F-T synthesis (FTS) activity and selectivity of Co/Al2O3 catalyst. The reactivity of the carbon species at higher preadsorption temperature with H2 in TPSR decreased, whereas the carbon-containing species showed higher reactivity over Co/Al2O3 catalyst with low calcination temperature. This agreed well with the order of catalytic activity for F-T synthesis on this catalyst. The catalytic activity of the catalyst varied with reduction temperature and time remarkably. CODEX optimization gave an optimum reduction temperature of 756 K and reduction time of 6.2 h and estimated C5+ yield perfectly. The pretreatment of Co/Al2O3 catalyst with different reduction agents (hydrogen or syngas) showed important influences on the catalytic performance. A high CO conversion and C5+ yield were obtained on the catalyst reduced by hydrogen, whereas methane selectivity on the catalyst reduced by syngas was much higher than that on the catalyst reduced by hydrogen.
