A simple, effective and accurate method based on solid-phase extraction （SPE） and HPLC was developed for the quantitative determination of biapenem in human plasma. Stability and feasibility of the method was validated through a series of experiments. Using Vitamin B6 as an internal standard, analyte was separated on a Capcell Pak C18 column after SPE on Oasis hydrophilic-lipophilic balance （HLB） cartridge. The mobile phase was comprised of 0.05 mol/L NaH2PO4 （pH 5.7） and methanol （98：2, v/v） at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Ultraviolet absorbance was measured at 300 nm. The calibration curve was linear in the concentration range of 0.04-50.00 μg/mL, and the lower limit of quantification was as low as 0.04 μg/mL. Recovery rates of biapenem at 0.10, 5.00, and 25.00 μg/mL were about 70%. The validated method has been successfully applied for quantifying biapenem in human samples and a pharmacokinetic study of 12 healthy volunteers who received three different doses （150, 300 and 600 mg） of biapenem by intravenous infusion. Our method has featured good accuracy and precision, and the processed sample was stable. Therefore, it can be propagated for clinical use.展开更多

Conditions for obtaining optimum extraction efficiency such as extraction solvents, morphologies of adsorbent, ion strength and pH were investigated and optimized in detail. Under the optimized conditions, the limits of detection （LODs） found for dibutyl phthalate （DBP） , butyl benzyl phthalate （BBP）, diethyl hexyl phthalate （DEHP） and di-n-octyl phthalate （DNOP） were 50, 25, 50 and 25 ng/g, respectively. Good linearity of four PAEs was achieved in the range of 50 to 4 000 ng/g. The proposed method was applied for analyzing different kinds of fat-containing samples. PAEs in commercial fat-containing samples can be highly extracted by a packed solid-phase extraction column of 5 mg polystyrene （ PS） nanofibers. The satisfactory average recoveries were obtained in the range of 96. 7% to 102. 3% , and the relative standard deviations （RSDs） below 5% were achieved. The proposed method reduces the organic solvent consumption, the complex and tedious procedures for sample pretreatment, and achieves high sensitivity and reproducibility for the investigated PAEs.展开更多

A total of 70 components were identified by HSSPME, including 20 esters, 19 hydrocarbons, 5 alcohols, 5 ketones, 4 acids, 4 lactones, 3 aldehydes, and 10 miscellaneous components, with the esters being the dominant constituent. On the basis of the odor unit values, it is believed that the following compounds probably contributed to the fresh apricot odor： hexyl acetate, β-ionone, butyl acetate, （E）-2-hexenal, linalool, limonene, γ-decalactone, and hexanal. A total of 49 components were also detected by SSDE, including 13 hydrocarbons, 9 alcohols, 7 aldehydes, 9 esters, 4 ketones, 4 lactones, 2 acids, and 1 miscellaneous component, of which the monoterpene alcohols were the dominant constituents. It could be judged from the odor unit values that the following compounds were the major contributors to boiled apricot aroma： β-ionone, linalool, hexyl acetate, γ-dodecalactone, γ- decalactone, （E）-2-hexenal, hexanal, γ-octalactone, phenylacetaldehyde, butyl acetate, limonene, α-terpineol, and δ-decalactone. The results show that HS-SPME is a simple, rapid, and solvent-free method, which is an alternative to the classical SSDE.展开更多

文摘Asperfilasin A(1),featuring a unique 5/5 cyclopenta[c]pyrrol-one bicyclic core,represents a newly discovered skeletal cytochalasan isolated from Aspergillus flavipes.The enantioselective total synthesis was efficiently accomplished from the key intermediate(S)-6 with three contiguous stereocenters in 5 steps and the synthetic 1 induced G2/M-phase cell cycle arrest of HT29 cells and apoptosis of HL60 and NB4 cells by activation of caspase-3 and degradation of PARP.(S)-6,bearing three contiguous chiral centers,was efficiently constructed by a novel Nazarov cyclization reaction containing basic nitrogen,which was less developed,primarily due to the incompatibility of basic nitrogen under acidic reaction conditions.This reaction allows a wide range of pentadienone substrates containing basic nitrogen to undergo Nazarov cyclization in a single regioselective and diastereoselective manner and is capable of generating three stereocenters simultaneously.Furthermore,the mechanism of the Nazarov cyclization and the origin of the regio-and diastereoselectivity were elucidated by DFT calculations and deuteration experiments,providing valuable insights into the reaction and serving as a guide for future applications involving substrates containing basic nitrogen.

文摘A procedure of low temperature solid-phase sintering（LTSS） was carried out to fabricate sintered metal fibrous media（SMFM） with high specific surface area.Stainless steel fibers which were produced by cutting process were first plated with a coarse copper coating layer by electroless plating process.A low-temperature sintering process was then completed at about 800 °C for 1 h under the protection of hydrogen atmosphere.The results show that a novel SMFM with complex surface morphology and high specific surface area（0.2 m2/g） can be obtained in this way.The effect of sintering temperature on the surface morphology and specific surface area of SMFM was studied by means of scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller.The damage of micro-structure during the sintering process mainly contributed to the loss of specific surface area of SMFM and the optimal sintering temperature was 800 °C.

文摘A solid-phase sintering process for the low-cost fabrication of composite micro-channels was developed. Three kinds of composite micro-channels with metallic porous structures were designed. The sintering process was studied and optimized to obtain porous-structured micro-channels with high porosity. The flow resistance and heat transfer performance in the composite micro-channels were investigated. The composite micro-channels show acceptable flow resistance, significant enhancement of heat transfer and dramatic improvement of flow boiling stability, which indicates a promising prospect for the application in forced convective heat transfer.

文摘Biapenem, a new parenteral carbapenem, has been widely used for treating bacterial infections. A simple, effective and accurate method based on solid-phase extraction （SPE） and HPLC was developed for the quantitative determination of biapenem in human plasma. Stability and feasibility of the method was validated through a series of experiments. Using Vitamin B6 as an internal standard, analyte was separated on a Capcell Pak C18 column after SPE on Oasis hydrophilic-lipophilic balance （HLB） cartridge. The mobile phase was comprised of 0.05 mol/L NaH2PO4 （pH 5.7） and methanol （98：2, v/v） at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Ultraviolet absorbance was measured at 300 nm. The calibration curve was linear in the concentration range of 0.04-50.00 μg/mL, and the lower limit of quantification was as low as 0.04 μg/mL. Recovery rates of biapenem at 0.10, 5.00, and 25.00 μg/mL were about 70%. The validated method has been successfully applied for quantifying biapenem in human samples and a pharmacokinetic study of 12 healthy volunteers who received three different doses （150, 300 and 600 mg） of biapenem by intravenous infusion. Our method has featured good accuracy and precision, and the processed sample was stable. Therefore, it can be propagated for clinical use.

文摘A new method for simultaneous determination of four phthalate esters （ PAEs） in commercial fat-containing foods was developed by the combination of a packed nanofibers column based on solid-phase extraction with gas chromatography-flame ionization detector （ GC-FID ）. Conditions for obtaining optimum extraction efficiency such as extraction solvents, morphologies of adsorbent, ion strength and pH were investigated and optimized in detail. Under the optimized conditions, the limits of detection （LODs） found for dibutyl phthalate （DBP） , butyl benzyl phthalate （BBP）, diethyl hexyl phthalate （DEHP） and di-n-octyl phthalate （DNOP） were 50, 25, 50 and 25 ng/g, respectively. Good linearity of four PAEs was achieved in the range of 50 to 4 000 ng/g. The proposed method was applied for analyzing different kinds of fat-containing samples. PAEs in commercial fat-containing samples can be highly extracted by a packed solid-phase extraction column of 5 mg polystyrene （ PS） nanofibers. The satisfactory average recoveries were obtained in the range of 96. 7% to 102. 3% , and the relative standard deviations （RSDs） below 5% were achieved. The proposed method reduces the organic solvent consumption, the complex and tedious procedures for sample pretreatment, and achieves high sensitivity and reproducibility for the investigated PAEs.
文摘A new chemiluminescence flow system has been developed for sequential determina-tion of benzoic acid based on the reaction of the compound with copper carbonate entrapped in a solid-phase reactor. It was found that the unsaturated complex of Cu(II) and benzoic acid (1:1) has strong catalytic effect on the luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence reaction. The calibration graph is linear over the range of 0.025 ~ 60 g/mL of benzoic acid, with a relative standard deviation of less than 3.0 %, and the detection limit is 0.01礸穖L-1. The proposed method was applied to the determination of benzoic acid content in different pharmaceutical formulations.
文摘A new pre-column derivation HPLC method with solid-phase extraction to determine captopril in human plasma was established. Derivation products were extracted by a solid-phase extraction method after the reagent, p-a-dibromoacetophenone(p-BPB), was added in the plasma samples. The samples were analyzed in a VP-ODS column with UV-detector. The calibration curve of captopril was linear within the range of 5~1000 ngmL-1 with r=0.9987, the recovery of this method was 98.652.04%, within day and between day RSD were no more than 3.4% and 8.4% respectively. To study the pharmacokinetics and the relative bioavailability of captopril tablets, two formulations of captopril tablets were given to 18 healthy male volunteers according to a randomized 2-way cross-over design with a 1-week washout period. The respective AUC0~6 , Cmax and Tmax values of the two formulations were 424.5125.7 and 439.4113.3 mghL-1; 505.9244.6 and 504.8172.2 mgL-1; 0.6620.181 and 0.5280.176 h. Results from statistics analysis showed that there were no significant difference between the AUC0~6 , Cmax and Tmax values of the two formulations, The relative bioavailability of tablets I with respect to II was 96.114.6% from AUC0~6 measurement. Bioequivalance was observed between the two tablets.

文摘Volatile constituents in fully mature fruits of apricot （Prunus armeniaca L.） cultivar Xinshiji were extracted using headspace solid-phase microextraction （HS-SPME） and simultaneous steam distillation extraction （SSDE） and then analyzed using capillary gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A total of 70 components were identified by HSSPME, including 20 esters, 19 hydrocarbons, 5 alcohols, 5 ketones, 4 acids, 4 lactones, 3 aldehydes, and 10 miscellaneous components, with the esters being the dominant constituent. On the basis of the odor unit values, it is believed that the following compounds probably contributed to the fresh apricot odor： hexyl acetate, β-ionone, butyl acetate, （E）-2-hexenal, linalool, limonene, γ-decalactone, and hexanal. A total of 49 components were also detected by SSDE, including 13 hydrocarbons, 9 alcohols, 7 aldehydes, 9 esters, 4 ketones, 4 lactones, 2 acids, and 1 miscellaneous component, of which the monoterpene alcohols were the dominant constituents. It could be judged from the odor unit values that the following compounds were the major contributors to boiled apricot aroma： β-ionone, linalool, hexyl acetate, γ-dodecalactone, γ- decalactone, （E）-2-hexenal, hexanal, γ-octalactone, phenylacetaldehyde, butyl acetate, limonene, α-terpineol, and δ-decalactone. The results show that HS-SPME is a simple, rapid, and solvent-free method, which is an alternative to the classical SSDE.
