A supramolecular solvent composed of decanol in tetrahydrofuran/water was utilized for the simultaneous microextraction of chiral triadimefon and triadimenol in beer samples. Supramolecular solvents are nanostructured amphiphilic liquids that contain aqueous cavities, and the size of those cavities can be adjusted by the ratio of decanol, tetrahydrofuran, and water. The target analytes were mixed into the matrix sample and extracted in the supramolecular solvent phase, which was followed by separation and quantification by chiral liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry. The influences of some analytical parameters and matrix components were all examined. Under the optimized conditions, the method detection limits were in the range of 0.24 to 0.98 μg L?1 (at a signal/noise of 3), with relative standard deviations between 1.6 and 5.7%. The linearities of the calibration plots were between 0.5 to 50 (triadimenol) and 1.0 to 100 μg L?1 (triadimefon). When this method was applied to a spiked beer sample, the recoveries ranged from 84 to 100%. 相似文献

Enhanced taxol production and release in Taxus chinensis cell suspension cultures with selected organic solvents and sucrose feeding 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Suspension culture of Taxus chinensis cells was carried out in aqueous-organic two-phase systems for the production and in situ solvent extraction of taxol (paclitaxel). Three organic solvents, hexadecane, decanol, and dibutylphthalate, were tested at 5-20% (v/v) in the culture liquid. All of these solvents stimulated taxol release and the yield per cell, though decanol and higher concentrations of the other two solvents depressed biomass growth significantly. Ten percent dibutylphthalate was the optimal solvent for improving taxol production and release with minimal cell growth inhibition. The time of solvent addition to the culture also affected taxol production, with the addition during the late-log growth phase being most favorable. By feeding sucrose to the culture near the stationary growth phase, the cell growth and taxol production period was extended from 27 to 42 days. The combining of the two-phase culture and sucrose feeding increased the taxol yield by about 6-fold compared with the single-phase batch culture, to 36.0 +/- 3.5 mg/L, with up to 63% taxol released. This study shows that in situ solvent extraction combined with nutrient feeding is an effective process strategy for production and recovery of secondary metabolites in plant cell suspension culture. 相似文献

Electrochemical properties of Na+-selective glass microelectrodes were studied and compared with those of K+-selective glass microelectrodes. The selectivity of Na+-selective glass microelectrodes depended on the ion concentration of test solutions. With aging, resistance of Na+-selective microelectrodes increased and their selectivity for Na over K decreased. Na+-selective microelectrodes potential measured in NaCl solution remained constant with aging, while the potential measured in KCl solution decreased and became more positive. The changes in resistance and potential of Na+-selective microelectrodes may be due to the effects of the less mobile cation, i.e., H+ or K+ on the Na ion exchange in the Na-sensing region. The results indicate that Na+-selective microelectrodes must be used as soon after filling as possible. The selectivity of Na+-selective microelectrodes increased with increase of the sensitive exposed-tip length, whereas their response time became slow due to a large recessed volume, indicating requirement of an optimum exposed-tip length for intracellular applications. The changes in the properties of Na+-selective glass microelectrodes with aging contrasted with those of K+-selective glass microelectrodes in which resistance decreased and K+-selectivity increased. The K+-selective microelectrodes required aging before use for a high selectivity and low resistance. The K+-selective microelectrodes with low resistance after sufficient aging can be used without insulation to measure K+ and Na+ activities in aqueous solutions. The different properties between Na+- and K+-selective microelectrodes are understandable, because hydration of N+-selective glass is much less extensive than that of K+-selective glass. 相似文献

Requirements for a reliable use of liquid membrane microelectrodes are discussed in terms of stability, response time, and lifetime on the basis of membrane technological considerations. The selectivity of H+, Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, and Cl- microelectrodes is critically evaluated using the Nikolskii-Eisenman formalism. Recent progress in the design of new ionophores is presented. A novel neutral carrier-based Ca2+-selective microelectrode with a detection limit of about 5 X 10(-10) M Ca2+ at a background of 125 mM K+ has been realized. An neutral carrier-based microelectrode for H+ with extended pH range of the sample solution is now available. Promising developments in the field of Li+-, Mg2+-, and Cl--selective ionophores are discussed. 相似文献

Na+- and Ca2+-selective microelectrodes were made with Simon's neutral carrier ETH 227 and ETH 1001, respectively, and their properties were studied for intracellular application. The kNaK (selectivity coefficient for Na+ with respect to K+) values of the Na+-selective microelectrodes were in the range of 0.01-0.02, which is comparable to those of recessed-tip Na+-selective glass microelectrodes. The kNaMg values of the microelectrodes were approximately 0.005 so that the interference by intracellular Mg2+ levels could be negligible. The kNaCa values were approximately 2 and the Na+-selective microelectrodes were more selective to Ca2+ than Na+. This indicates that their intracellular application requires special care to handle Ca2+ interference under certain conditions. The kNaK, kNaMg, and kNaCa values did not depend significantly on the methods used for their determination or on the ion activity levels tested. The Nicolsky equation described well the microelectrode potentials in the mixed solutions of NaCl (1-100 mM) and KCl. Potential and resistance of the microelectrodes were stable for a long period and their response time was fast. The results indicate that the Na+-selective microlectrodes are suitable for measurements of intracellular Na ion activities. Ca2+-selective microelectrode potentials at Ca2+ concentrations lower than 10(-4) M changed significantly for the first 2-3 h and then became fairly stable. The rate of the potential change was dependent on the column length of the Ca2+-selective liquid filled. Potentials of the microelectrodes varied from 10-20 mV for Ca2+ between 10(-7) and 10(-6) M concentrations, which may be the cytosolic free-Ca2+ range. With the Ca2+ concentrations greater than 10(-6) M, the microelectrodes had potential changes of approximately 30 mV or greater for a tenfold change in Ca2+ concentration. The kCaK and kCaNa values were in the ranges of 10(-5)-10(-6) and 10(-4)-10(-5), respectively. The kCaMg values were approximately 10(-7). The results show that the Ca2+-selective microelectrodes can be used for measurements of cytosolic Ca ion activities. 相似文献

A double-barreled Na+-selective microelectrode was constructed with monensin as a liquid ion exchanger. The HCl-treated monensin was dissolved in a solvent (Corning 477317) at 10% (weight/weight). Internal reference solution of its ionic barrel was mixture of 0.49 M NaCl and 0.01 M KCl, the pH being adjusted to 3 with 0.1 M citrate-HCl buffer, whereas that of the PD barrel was 0.5 M KCl. Average slope and selectivity ratio (Na+/K+) tested on 10 different microelectrodes were -57.5 +/- 1.87 mV/P(Na) (SEM) and 6.7 +/- 0.44, respectively. The electrical resistance was an order of 10(10) ohm and the response time was less than 10 sec. Using this microelectrode, a free flow micropuncture experiment was carried out in the bullfrog kidney and the intracellular Na+ activity as well as the membrane PD was determined on the proximal tubular cell. Average value (+/- SEM, n = 15) for the intracellular Na+ and K+ was 20.7 +/- 1.56 mEq/L and 61.2 +/- 1.16 mEq/L, respectively, and -68.7 +/- 0.88 mV for the peritubular membrane PD. There was a significant negative correlation between Na+ and K+ activities within the cell, i.e., the lower the ionic activity of cellular Na+ was, the higher the cellular K+, and vice versa, the sum of these two being kept nearly constant. The above finding may be somehow related to the isosmosis in the reabsorptive process across the proximal tubular epithelium. 相似文献

We used open tip microelectrodes containing a K+-sensitive liquid ion exchanger to determine directly the intracellular K+ activity in beating canine cardiac Purkinje fibers. For preparations superfused with Tyrode's solution in which the K+ concentration was 4.0 mM, intracellular K+ activity (ak) was 130.0+/-2.3 mM (mean+/-SE) at 37 degrees C. The calculated K+ equilibrium potential (EK) was -100.6+/- 0.5 mV. Maximum diastolic potential (ED) and resting transmembrane potential (EM) were measured with conventional microelectrodes filled with 3 M KCl and were -90.6+/-0.3 and -84.4+/-0.4 mV, respectively. When [K+]o was decreased to 2.0 mM or increased to 6.0, 10.0, and 16.0 mM, ak remained the same. At [K+]o=2.0, ED was -97.3+/-0.4 and Em - 86.0+/-0.7 mV; at [K+]o=16.0, ED fell to -53.8+/-0.4 mV and Em to the same value. Over this range of values for [K+]o, EK changed from - 119.0+/-0.3 to -63.6+/-0.2 mV. These values for EK are consistent with those previously estimated indirectly by other techniques. 相似文献

Protoplasts were isolated enzymatically from immature cotyledons of soybean. The protoplasts divided to form calli in the K8P liquid medium. The calli further grew to 2–3 mm on the solid K8 medium and were transferred onto the MSB medium (MS minerals+B5 organic components+0.5–1.0 mg/l 2,4-D+0.2–0.5 mg/l BA) to obtain compact and nodular calli. Shoot formation was initiated on M1 medium (MSB medium with 0.15 mg/1 NAA, and BA, KT and ZT, 0.5 mg/l of each, 500 mg/1 CH). Differentiation frequency was 13.6–24.2%. Plants have been regenerated from protoplasts of immature cotyledons in 2 cultivars, and normal pods were obtained from them. 相似文献

In experiments on the rabbit urinary bladder epithelium we have identified an electrical artifact in certain liquid ion-sensitive microelectrodes. This artifact arises from the high electrical resistance of the ion-sensitive resins which in some cases are comparable to the resistance of the microelectrode glass wall. For Na+-sensitive microelectrodes this situation led to shunting of the exchanger potential and consequently artifactually high calculations of intracellular Na+ in the rabbit urinary bladder epithelium. A method for minimizing this shunting effect is described. After reduction of the shunt the frequency response of the Na+-sensitive microelectrode was increased and the estimated ai Na+ was decreased to 7 mM. 相似文献

Electrical activity in the brain is accompanied by significant ion fluxes across membranes, resulting in complex changes in the extracellular concentration of all major ions. As these ion shifts bear significant functional consequences, their quantitative determination is often required to understand the function and dysfunction of neural networks under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. In the present study, we demonstrate the fabrication and calibration of double-barreled ion-selective microelectrodes, which have proven to be excellent tools for such measurements in brain tissue. Moreover, so-called “concentric” ion-selective microelectrodes are also described, which, based on their different design, offer a far better temporal resolution of fast ion changes. We then show how these electrodes can be employed in acute brain slice preparations of the mouse hippocampus. Using double-barreled, potassium-selective microelectrodes, changes in the extracellular potassium concentration ([K+]o) in response to exogenous application of glutamate receptor agonists or during epileptiform activity are demonstrated. Furthermore, we illustrate the response characteristics of sodium-sensitive, double-barreled and concentric electrodes and compare their detection of changes in the extracellular sodium concentration ([Na+]o) evoked by bath or pressure application of drugs. These measurements show that while response amplitudes are similar, the concentric sodium microelectrodes display a superior signal-to-noise ratio and response time as compared to the double-barreled design. Generally, the demonstrated procedures will be easily transferable to measurement of other ions species, including pH or calcium, and will also be applicable to other preparations. 相似文献

Gas-chromatographic examinations were made on the amounts of hexachlorobenzene accumulating in the liver and fatty tissue of rats chronically poisoned with a diet containing 0.2 % hexachlorobenzene, and on the amounts of hexachlorobenzene and pentachlorophenol excreted with the urine and the faeces in the course of the poisoning. The results indicated a constant rise in the hexachlorobenzene levels in these tissues. Pentachlorophenol formed in the catabolism of hexachlorobenzene appeared in increasing concentration in both the urine and the faeces from the commencement of the poisoning. After the 5th–6th week of poisoning, the presence of other apolar and polar products in the excretions was also markedly enhanced. After a single dose of hexachlorobenzene /0.2 g/animal/, of all the decomposition products only pentachlorophenol was produced in high concentration, showing that this is a primary catabolite. A hypothesis is put forward as to the possibility of a role being played in the mechanism of action of hexachlorobenzene by a membrane permeability change. 相似文献

NMDA receptors, ATP receptors, and nicotinic ACh receptors respond to agonist by undergoing conformational changes that open weakly selective cationic channels that are permeable to calcium. We determined the fraction of the current carried by calcium by simultaneously measuring membrane current using whole-cell patch-clamp techniques and intracellular Ca2+ using the fluorescent indicator Fura-2. The Fura-2 response to free Ca2+ was calibrated individually for each cell. Two different calibration methods are compared: one uses voltage-activated Ca2+ channels, and the other uses the same ligand-gated channels that are being tested but in a pure Ca2+ solution. The two methods give quantitatively different results. The method using pure Ca2+ currents through ligand-gated channels calibrates the Fura-2 signal through the same influx pathway that generates the test response, thus controlling for the distribution of channels and ensuring a similar interaction between the incoming Ca2+ and Fura-2. In a physiologic solution containing 2.5 mM Ca2+ at a holding potential of -50 mV, the percentage of inward current carried by Ca2+ through NMDA receptors in hippocampal neurons is 12.4%. By comparison, in sympathetic neurons the percentage of current carried by Ca2+ through neuronal nAChRs is 4.7%, and through ATP-activated purinergic receptors it is 6.5%. These percentages can be used to estimate the amount of Ca2+ entry through these receptors during synaptic activation, but care must be exercised in considering the many subtypes of each receptor. 相似文献

Abstract A protocol of protoplast isolation from Egyptian varieties of pea and bean is reported. Protoplast cultures were established from apical shoots of pea (Pisum sativum) and suspension cultures of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). To isolate protoplasts of pea, apical shoot tissues were digested for 10 h using enzyme solution containing 1% pectinase, 0.5% cellulase, 0.5% hemicellulase, 10% mannitol and 0.1% CaCl2-2H2O. For protoplast isolation from suspension culture of bean, collected cells were incubated for 6 h in digestion solution containing 0.5% pectinase, 0.25% of each of cellulase and hemicellulase, 10% mannitol and 0.1% CaCl2-2H2O. Purified protoplasts were cultured in liquid culture medium. Microcalli were obtained after 30 days of culture. Calli colonies with a diameter of about 5 mm were developed after one month of culturing on solid B5 medium containing 2% sucrose, 2 g/l casein hydrolysate, 0.7% agar and supplemented with either 1 mg/l of each 2,4-D and kin in case of pea or 2 mg/l 2,4-D+0.5 mg/l kin in case of bean. Protoplast derived callus of pea was successfully differentiated into shoot and root, and highest frequency of shoot organogenesis was recorded on medium containing 0.5 mg/l NAA+2 mg/l BA. Protoplast derived callus of bean, on the other hand, gave rise to a high frequency of root formation when cultured on medium containing 1 mg/l NAA, but attempts to regenerate shoots from this callus was unsuccessfull. 相似文献

We analyzed the ionic composition of the hemolymph of Porcellio scaber in four different stages of the molt cycle using capillary electrophoresis and calcium selective mini- and microelectrodes.
The main ions in the hemolymph were K+, Ca2+, Na+, Mg+, and Cl−. The values for total calcium obtained by means of capillary electrophoresis and calcium selective minielectrodes did not
differ significantly from each other. In situ measurements of the free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]) by means of calcium-selective microelectrodes indicated that Ca2+ is not bound in the hemolymph. During molt the [Ca2+] is significantly larger than during intermolt. The [Ca2+] increased by 13%, 19% and 18% during premolt, intramolt, and postmolt, respectively. The concentration of the other cations
and of Cl− decreased significantly between premolt and intramolt. Thus, the rise of the [Ca2+] in the hemolymph is not due to a general increase in all ions, but rather to the resorption of cuticular calcium. Furthermore,
the results suggest that K+, Na+, Mg+, and Cl−are extruded from the hemolymph during and/or after posterior ecdysis.

A carrier-mediated counter transport process is proposed to separate and to purify an amino acid produced by microbial fermentation. The case of L-valine permeation through a liquid membrane, constituted by a solution of Aliquat 336 in decanol and supported by a hydrophobic microporous membrane, is reported. A mathematical model was developed to estimate distribution coefficients and permeabilities and to predict the influence of hydrodynamic and pH conditions on supported liquid membrane (SLM) performances. Optimum conditions for the transport and the concentration of valine were achieved with synthetic aqueous valine solutions. Series of experiments on fermentation broths, where molasses and biomass contents were varied, permitted pointing out the role of the broth composition on the kinetics and yields of separation. The selectivity of transport of valine by an Aliquat 336/decanol liquid membrane was about 10 toward molasses dyes, 100 toward glucose, and beyond 1000 toward sucrose. This allowed us to achieve the recovery and one step of purification of the product in a single operation. The stability of the Aliquat 336/decanol liquid membrane was sufficient to ensure a selective transport of valine during a continuous run lasting 18 days. 相似文献

An isocratic reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method for the separation and quantitation of total pyridine dinucleotides in hepatocyte cultures is described. Cells are extracted with cold 3 M perchloric acid or 0.5 N sodium hydroxide containing 50% (v/v) ethanol and 35% cesium chloride for the determination of the oxidized or reduced pyridine dinucleotides, respectively. Pyridine dinucleotides in the neutralized extracts were separated on an Excellopak ODS C18 (4.6 X 150 mm) column with 0.1 M potassium phosphate, pH 6.0, containing 3.75% methanol as the mobile phase. NAD+ and NADP+ were detected spectrophotometrically at 254 nm. The response was linear from 5 to 4000 pmol with recoveries of NAD+ and NADP+ of 98 and 101.1%, respectively. NADH and NADPH were monitored fluorometrically by activation at 370 nm and emission in the 400-700 nm range. The reduced pyridine dinucleotides had a linear response from 7.5 to 60 pmol with recoveries of NADH and NADPH of 99.4 and 101.3%, respectively. The coefficients of variation for all of the pyridine dinucleotide standards were less than 3.5%. 相似文献

Photoreceptor channel activation by nucleotide derivatives 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Cyclic nucleotide activated sodium currents were recorded from photoreceptor outer segment membrane patches. The concentration of cGMP and structurally similar nucleotide derivatives was varied at the cytoplasmic membrane face; currents were generated at each concentration by the application of a voltage ramp. Nucleotide-activated currents were analyzed as a function of both concentration and membrane potential. For cGMP, the average K0.5 at 0 mV was 24 microM, and the activation was cooperative with an average Hill coefficient of 2.3. Of the nucleotide derivatives examined, only 8-[[(fluorescein-5-yl-carbamoyl)methyl]thio]-cGMP (8-Fl-cGMP) activated the channel at lower concentrations than cGMP with a K0.5 of 0.85 microM. The next most active derivative was 2-amino-6-mercaptopurine riboside 3',5'-monophosphate (6-SH-cGMP) which had a K0.5 of 81 microM. cIMP and cAMP had very high K0.5 values of approximately 1.2 mM and greater than 1.5 mM, respectively. All nucleotides displayed cooperativity in their response and were rapidly reversible. Maximal current for each derivative was compared to the current produced at 200 microM cGMP; only 8-Fl-cGMP produced an identical current. The partial agonists 6-SH-cGMP, cIMP, and cAMP activated currents which were approximately 90%, 80%, and 25% of the cGMP response, respectively. 5'-GMP, 2-aminopurine riboside 3',5'-monophosphate, and 2'-deoxy-cGMP produced no detectable current. The K0.5 values for cGMP activation, examined from -90 to +90 mV, displayed a weak voltage dependence of approximately 400 mV/e-fold; the index of cooperativity was independent of the applied field.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
