Nanoporous Metal Phosphonates
Authors: Miller Stuart R. , Wright Paul A.
Published: March 2009

Nanoporous metal phosphonates make up a growing family of organic–inorganic hybrid solids, which extends the scope of functional materials with potential in adsorption, ion exchange, catalysis, and sensing. Their attributes include thermal stability and the ability to incorporate functional organic and inorganic components accessible to adsorbates. The best established are those based on zirconium, comprising layered solids in which organic groups act as pillars between inorganic zirconium phosphate sheets. The porosity, which can be on the micro‐ or mesoscale, is engineered by design of the organic pillars and their number density and, while not ordered on the long range, can have a narrow distribution. Other pillared layered metal phosphonates are also known. More recent developments have yielded framework metal phosphonates with well‐defined permanent microporosity similar to that observed in zeolites, in the 0.3–1‐nm range, that demonstrate molecular sieving. Currently, the most promising solids of this kind include aluminum methylphosphonates and metal bisphosphonates, which can be described as
metal–organic frameworks
or MOFs. Another area of smaller, but developing interest is the preparation of metal phosphonates with ordered mesoporosity, in which a wide range of solids with relatively narrow distribution of pore sizes in the 3–15‐nm range is prepared by surfactant‐templated approaches. These have potential in the interaction with large molecules, including proteins.
Nano/Microporous Materials: Metal‐Ion Sorption Materials
Authors: Hobbs David T.
Published: March 2009

This paper provides a literature review from 2004 to the present, summarizing studies evaluating the use of nanomaterials and microporous materials as sorbents for the separation of metal ions from aqueous solutions. Materials such as microporous titanosilicates, mesoporous silicas, metal oxide nanoparticles, and carbon nanotubes exhibit increased loading and removal kinetics for a variety of metal ions compared to conventional sorbent materials. Also, incorporation of functional groups into these materials has shown promise to provide enhanced selectivity for a variety of metal ions.
Nanostructured Catalysts: Controlling Single‐Site Composition
Authors: Barnes Craig E. , Mayes Richard T.
Published: March 2009

Developing well‐understood methodologies for the preparation of single‐site catalysts has long been a goal in catalysis science. Newly emerging strategies for preparing and functionalizing nanostructured materials open the door to a number of new approaches that address this goal. General, structural, and chemical definitions of nanostructured, single‐site catalysts are presented, and the challenges associated with meeting these requirements are discussed. Selected examples of nanostructuring strategies that lead to well‐defined single‐site catalysts are described.
Semiconductor Nanowires
Authors: Korgel Brian A.
Published: March 2009

This review provides an overview of the synthesis, structural and chemical properties, and assembly and processing strategies of semiconductor nanowires. Vapor–liquid–solid (VLS), solution–liquid–solid (SLS), supercritical fluid–liquid–solid (SFLS) approaches that rely on the formation of a liquid metal–semiconductor eutectic to seed nanowire growth are covered. Nanowire growth from metal seed particles in the solid phase are also discussed, as well as chemical methods that rely on surfactants, self‐assembly, and directed crystallization processes. Structural details about the nanowires, including the crystallographic growth direction, common extended defects, and surface faceting are discussed. Routes to surface passivation by organic monolayers and compositional control of impurity doping and heterostructures—radial and axial—are presented, as well as more structurally complicated branched nanowire structures. Finally, an overview of nanowire processing and manipulation is offered, with a discussion about positioned growth, self‐assembly, and the potential impact of impurities on applications.
Raman Spectroscopy of Polymers
Authors: Paradkar Rajesh P. , Leugers Anne , Patel Rajen , Chen Xiaoyun , Meyers Greg , Lipp Elmer
Published: March 2009

Raman spectroscopy is a vibrational spectroscopic technique that can provide detailed information about reaction chemistry, structure, chemical composition, and morphology of the chemical species under investigation. Owing to its ease of sampling, Raman spectroscopy is particularly well suited for in situ monitoring and to study polymers and solid samples that are less amenable to other analytical techniques. Polymer powers, pellets, molded articles, fibers, and films can be probed by simply illuminating them with a laser beam and analyzing the backscattered radiation. The primary goal of this article is to provide potential Raman practitioners a high level overview of the technique and instrumentation and different types of polymer‐related applications using some real‐world examples. These applications will generally take advantage of the sampling ease or unique structural information available from Raman spectroscopy. It is not our intention to discuss the theory or present an exhaustive review of the existing Raman literature in any detail. Instead a comprehensive list of references is provided for readers interested in acquiring additional information on specific topics.
Effects of sex, status, and mating cues on expected aggressive responses
Authors: Terrell Heather K. , Patock‐Peckham Julie A. , Nagoshi Craig T.
Published: March 2009

The effect of sex, status, and mating cues on expected aggression was examined via three scenario‐based studies in which participants imagined themselves in a situation with a same‐sex instigator of a provocation. Participants were randomly assigned to receive a scenario, which included one of two levels of status of instigator (high, low), one of two levels of attractiveness of the instigator (unattractive, attractive), and one of two levels of provocation (apology, insult). Sex and dispositional aggressivity were also included in a full factorial design. Based on evolutionary psychology ideas, we anticipated that status and attractiveness would differentially influence expected aggression for men vs. women. Participants in Experiment 1 were instructed to imagine that they were alone, whereas participants in Experiments 2 and 3 imagined themselves in a situation that included mating‐related primes. In general expected aggression was greater for aggression‐prone participants and under conditions of provocation and/or a high‐status instigator. Experiments 2 and 3 found that, in the context of mate competition, sex differences in the effects of instigator provocation, status, and attractiveness emerged: greater aggressivity now only predicted more aggression for males but not females who were insulted; aggression was highest for females confronting an unattractive, high‐status instigator and for males confronting an attractive, high‐status instigator; females were more likely to aggress against a high‐status instigator, regardless of being in a steady relationship or a first date situation, but males were only more likely to aggress against a high‐status instigator in a first date situation.

Explaining the modality and contiguity effects: New insights from investigating students' viewing behaviour
Authors: Schmidt‐Weigand Florian , Kohnert Alfred , Glowalla Ulrich
Published: March 2009

The study examined viewing behaviour and learning outcome during multimedia learning in order to explore split‐attention processes in modality and spatial contiguity effects. Fourty students viewed a computer instruction depicting the process of lightning. Exploratory text was spoken, written near or written far from accompanying animations. Students who received spoken text outperformed students who received written text in recalling the major steps (retention) and in identifying correct solutions to problems (transfer), replicating a modality effect. Differences between near and far written text presentation in retention (d = 0.51) and transfer (d = 0.68) tests failed statistical significance. Two major characteristics concerning the learners' viewing behaviour were identified: (a) in written text presentation, learning was largely text directed and (b) learning success was related to the time learners' spent looking at animations, indicating that the processing of animations is a crucial factor in explanations of modality and spatial contiguity effects.

Interventions to improve patient education regarding multifactorial genetic conditions: A systematic review
Authors: Meilleur Katherine G. , Littleton‐Kearney Marguerite T.
Published: March 2009

The careful education of patients with complex genetic disease is essential. However, healthcare providers often have limited time to spend providing thorough genetic education. Furthermore, the number of healthcare professionals possessing strong genetics training may be inadequate to meet increasing patient demands. Due to such constraints, several interventions have been investigated over the past decade to identify potential resources for the facilitation of this specific type of patient education. This systematic literature review of these interventions for patient education attempts to elucidate the answer to the question: is there sufficient evidence for best practice for delivering genetic information to patients with multifactorial conditions? The various interventions (CD‐ROM, group counseling, video/decision aid, and miscellaneous) were analyzed in terms of quality criteria and achievement of specific outcomes and were rated according to the Stetler model for evidence‐based practice. Seven main outcomes were evaluated: (1) objective and subjective knowledge assessment, (2) psychological measures (general anxiety, depression, stress, cancer worry), (3) satisfaction/effectiveness of intervention, (4) time spent in counseling (time spent on basic genetic information vs. specific concerns), (5) decision‐making/intent to undergo genetic testing, (6) treatment choice and value of that choice, and, finally (7) risk perception. Overall, the computer interventions resulted in more significant findings that were beneficial than any other category followed by the video category, although the group and miscellaneous categories did not measure all of the outcomes reported by the other two categories. Nevertheless, while these groups had neutral or negative findings in some of the outcomes, the computer intervention group showed significant improvement in genetics knowledge, psychological measures, satisfaction/effectiveness, time spent with counselor, and decision/intent to undergo testing.

Fragile X screening: Attitudes of genetic health professionals
Authors: Acharya Kruti , Ross Lainie Friedman
Published: March 2009

Although genetic health professionals (GHP) are major stakeholders in developing and implementing fragile X (FrX) testing and screening guidelines, their attitudes about FrX testing and population screening are virtually absent in the literature. A survey was conducted of physician geneticists (geneticists) and genetic counselors (GC). The survey addressed GHP's attitudes towards (1) prenatal FrX carrier screening; (2) pre‐ and full mutation screening of male and female newborns; (3) the single best time for FrX screening over the lifespan; and (4) their willingness to test a normally developing child with a positive family history. Surveys were completed by 30% (273/894) of eligible GHP. Attitudes of geneticists and GC were mostly indistinguishable. The single most favored screening approaches were (1) preconception screening targeted at women with a positive family history (43%); and (2) universal preconception screening (29%). While only 6% and 11% declared universal prenatal and universal newborn screening (NBS) as the ideal time respectively, 73% and 60% respectively would support such programs. GHP would design a NBS program to test male and female infants and to identify both pre‐ and full mutations. Over half would agree to order FrX testing on some normally developing children with a positive family history. In expanding FrX testing and screening to low risk individuals, GHP prefer preconception screening as the single best time. The majority also support prenatal screening and NBS. If NBS were to be introduced, GHP prefer screening to identify boys and girls with both pre‐ and full mutations. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Familial upper eyelid coloboma with ipsilateral anterior hairline abnormality: Two new reports of MOTA syndrome
Authors: Yeung Alison , Amor David , Savarirayan Ravi
Published: March 2009

We describe two patients with upper eyelid coloboma, hypertelorism, disruption of the eyebrow, and anterior hairline anomaly. The phenotype in our patients is consistent with Manitoba Oculotrichoanal syndrome (MOTA syndrome, OMIM 248450), which comprises a variable spectrum of eyelid malformations ranging from cryptophthalmos to upper eyelid colobomas; aberrant ipsilateral anterior hairline, and anal anomalies. It was first described in members of the indigenous population of the Island Lake region of Northern Manitoba, Canada. Autosomal recessive inheritance is demonstrated in these families and single‐gene etiology has been proposed. This constellation of anomalies also corresponds to those arising from the Number 10 cleft in Tessier's anatomical classification of clefting malformations. Tessier Number 10 clefts are the rarest of the 15 craniofacial clefting malformations first described by Tessier [Tessier (1976); J Maxillofac Surg 4:69–92]. They have only ever been reported as sporadic occurrences and the underlying etiology is thought to be environmental. We believe the phenotype in our patients and in those previously described with MOTA syndrome represents a disorder of craniofacial clefting; specifically, one that occurs along the tissue planes of the Tessier Number 10 cleft. The familial clustering of these facial features and their variable association with other congenital anomalies supports a genetic rather than environmental cause. The mapping of the gene for this syndrome is likely to involve a combined functional and positional approach with a focus on candidate genes involved in craniofacial development. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Fluid flow in an impacting symmetrical tee junction II: two‐phase air/water flow
Authors: Doherty A. P. , Murphy A. , Spedding P. L.
Published: March 2009

A universal flow regime map was presented for two‐phase flow in a horizontal pipe. Data were given on two‐phase gas/liquid flow in a symmetrical impacting tee junction. The flow regimes in the inlet arm of the tee were those expected for a straight pipe. This was not so for the outlet arm where, in most cases, flow regimes occurred earlier than expected. At low liquid outlet flows the stratified regime was reinforced into higher gas flows than expected. The liquid hold‐up exhibited variations over the tee junction. The pressure drop in the inlet arm agreed with similar data for the straight pipe, but in the tee outlets was below that expected for the straight pipe. The tee junction pressure drop showed some parallels to the corresponding single‐phase flow data but thele/ddimensionless values for the junction pressure drop showed a wide variation, in contrast to the single‐phase junction data. A model was presented based on the Lockhard–Martinelli theory that enabled the tee pressure drop to be predicted. Copyright © 2009 Curtin University of Technology and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Penicillin G splitting in a flow‐through electro‐membrane reactor with the membrane‐bound enzyme
Authors: Hasal Pavel , Penížková Růžena
Published: March 2009

Penicillin G (PenG) (0.05 mol dm−3 in phosphate buffer, pH = 8) was hydrolyzed in a continuous flow‐through electro‐membrane reactor (EMR) with the penicillin G acylase (PGA) (EC 3.5.1.11) immobilized in 10% (w/v) polyacrylamide membrane with an area of 900 mm2, thickness of 1 mm and enzyme activity of 100 U cm−3 and 160 U cm−3, respectively. The PenG was continuously fed to the substrate compartment adjacent to one membrane surface. Reaction products were washed from the membrane by a phosphate buffer solution fed to the product compartment adjacent to the other membrane surface. The mean residence time of both streams was varied from 11.3 min to 45 min. An electric field perpendicular to the membrane surface was imposed on the reactor and the electric current density was varied from 0 to 822 A m−2.

Substrate conversion was determined as a function of the mean residence time, of the applied electric current density and of the enzyme activity of the membrane. The conversion increased with increasing residence time. The applied electric current increased substrate conversion by 200% at short residence times and at low enzyme activity of the membrane. Oscillatory reaction regime was evoked by step change of the mean residence time of reactant streams in the reactor. Copyright © 2009 Curtin University of Technology and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Genetic algorithm for the determination of linear viscoelastic relaxation spectrum from experimental data
Authors: Monaco F. J. , Delbem A. C. B. , Federson F. M.
Published: March 2009

Conventional procedures employed in the modeling of viscoelastic properties of polymer rely on the determination of the polymer's discrete relaxation spectrum from experimentally obtained data. In the past decades, several analytical regression techniques have been proposed to determine an explicit equation which describes the measured spectra. With a diverse approach, the procedure herein introduced constitutes a simulation‐based computational optimization technique based on non‐deterministic search method arisen from the field of evolutionary computation. Instead of comparing numerical results, this purpose of this paper is to highlight some subtle differences between both strategies and focus on what properties of the exploited technique emerge as new possibilities for the field. In oder to illustrate this, essayed cases show how the employed technique can outperform conventional approaches in terms of fitting quality. Moreover, in some instances, it produces equivalent results with much fewer fitting parameters, which is convenient for computational simulation applications. The problem formulation and the rationale of the highlighted method are herein discussed and constitute the main intended contribution. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009
Pervaporation‐aided dehydration and esterification of acetic acid with ethanol using 4A zeolite‐filled cross‐linked sodium alginate‐mixed matrix membranes
Authors: Bhat Santoshkumar D. , Aminabhavi Tejraj M.
Published: March 2009

Filled mixed matrix membranes (MMM) of sodium alginate (NaAlg) were prepared by solution casting method and were filled with 4A zeolite particles in varying compositions from 0 to 10 wt % with respect to weight of NaAlg polymer. Membranes were cross‐linked with glutaraldehyde and tested for pervaporation (PV) dehydration of acetic acid and ethanol in the temperature range from 30 to 70°C. Flux and selectivity data increased simultaneously for both feed mixtures at higher loadings of 4A zeolite, due to its high hydrophilic nature as well as molecular sieving effect in addition to its favorable interaction with hydrophilic NaAlg. At increasing temperature, flux increased, but selectivity decreased. Arrhenius activation parameters for permeation process were dependent upon the extent of filler content. Pervaporation‐aided catalytic esterification of acetic acid with ethanol was attempted at 70°C, resulting in considerable increase of ethyl acetate conversion at reduced reaction time due to continuous removal of water by the membrane. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Electropolymerization of N‐hydroxyethylcarbazole on carbon fiber microelectrodes
Authors: Parlak Elif Altürk , Sarac A. Sezai , Serantoni Marina , Bobacka Johan
Published: March 2009

N‐Hydroxyethylcarbazole (EtOHCz) was electropolymerized on carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMEs). The polyEtOHCz‐modified CFME was characterized with FTIR‐ATR, scanning electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The polymer/CFME electrode exhibited the capacitive behavior and also good stability up to 2.0 V. The presence of hydoxylic group of the monomer seems to be an advantage on polymerization because of the unpaired electrons of oxygen, which would make ease at first stage for the adsorbtion on carbon fiber. The estimated value of the low‐frequency redox capacitance (CLF) was found to increase with increasing dc potential. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009
Thermodynamic study of surfaces of liquid polybutadienes and their interfaces with poly(dimethylsiloxane)
Authors: Jůza Josef
Published: March 2009

Surface tension of liquid polybutadienes (PBD) as well as interfacial tension between them and poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) were measured in the temperature range from 25 to 150°C. The measured pressure–volume–temperature (PVT) data were used for the determination of reduction parameters of pressure, volume, and temperature in several equations of state for polymers. The reduction parameters were used for the estimates of surface tension and compared with experimental data. Interfacial tensions were used to determine Flory‐Huggins interaction parameters using the Roe and Helfand theories for the system PBD‐PDMS. The results obtained using both the theories were somewhat different; the difference being the least with the segment chosen as a part of molecule containing 4–5 nonhydrogen atoms.

Modifications of PBD that were investigated increase the density. Maleic ester end groups increase both surface tension and interfacial tension and bring a positive contribution to the Flory‐Huggins interaction parameter (to its enthalpic component), whereas the pending maleic anhydride groups have shown the opposite effect; their negative contribution to Flory‐Huggins parameters concerns mainly its entropic component. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The puzzle of magnetic resonance effect on the magnetic compass of migratory birds
Authors: Kavokin K.V.
Published: March 2009

Experiments on the effect of radio‐frequency (RF) magnetic fields on the magnetic compass orientation of migratory birds are analyzed using the theory of magnetic resonance. The results of these experiments were earlier interpreted within the radical‐pair model of magnetoreception. However, the consistent analysis shows that the amplitudes of the RF fields used are far too small to noticeably influence electron spins in organic radicals. Other possible agents that could mediate the birds' response to the RF fields are discussed, but apparently no known physical system can be responsible for this effect.

A thermostable triple mutant of pyranose 2‐oxidase from Trametes multicolor with improved properties for biotechnological applications
Authors: Spadiut Oliver , Radakovits Katrin , Pisanelli Ines , Salaheddin Clara , Yamabhai Montarop , Tan Tien‐Chye , Divne Christina , Haltrich Dietmar
Published: March 2009

In order to increase the thermal stability and the catalytic properties of pyranose oxidase (P2Ox) from Trametes multicolor toward its poor substrate D‐galactose and the alternative electron acceptor 1,4‐benzoquinone (1,4‐BQ), we designed the triple‐mutant T169G/E542K/V546C. Whereas the wild‐type enzyme clearly favors D‐glucose as its substrate over D‐galactose [substrate selectivity (kcat/KM)Glc/(kcat/KM)Gal = 172], the variant oxidizes both sugars equally well [(kcat/KM)Glc/(kcat/KM)Gal = 0.69], which is of interest for food biotechnology. Furthermore, the variant showed lower KM values and approximately ten‐fold higher kcat values for 1,4‐BQ when D‐galactose was used as the saturating sugar substrate, which makes this enzyme particularly attractive for use in biofuel cells and enzyme‐based biosensors. In addition to the altered substrate specificity and reactivity, this mutant also shows significantly improved thermal stability. The half life time at 60°C was approximately 10 h, compared to 7.6 min for the wild‐type enzyme. We performed successfully small‐scale bioreactor pilot conversion experiments of D‐glucose/D‐galactose mixtures at both 30 and 50°C, showing the usefulness of this P2Ox variant in biocatalysis as well as the enhanced thermal stability of the enzyme. Moreover, we determined the crystal structure of the mutant in its unligated form at 1.55 Å resolution. Modeling D‐galactose in position for oxidation at C2 into the mutant active site shows that substituting Thr for Gly at position 169 favorably accommodates the axial C4 hydroxyl group that would otherwise clash with Thr169 in the wild‐type.
Gold Nanolabels for New Enhanced Chemiluminescence Immunoassay of Alpha‐Fetoprotein Based on Magnetic Beads

Published: March 2009

Gold'n'beads: A chemiluminescence immunoassay for the sensitive and rapid determination of AFP has been developed, employing bromophenol blue as a novel chemiluminescence enhancer by taking advantages of easy separation by magnetic beads and signal amplification by gold nanoparticles based on a sandwich‐type immunoreaction (see scheme).

magnified image

A novel and sensitive chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) has been developed by employing a new chemiluminescence (CL) enhancer, bromophenol blue (BPB), for the determination of alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) based on magnetic beads (MBs) and colloidal gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) modified with HRP‐labeled anti‐AFP antibodies. BPB, as a chemical indicator, was found to act as a novel and highly signal enhancer of the peroxidase‐catalyzed CL reaction of luminol with hydrogen peroxide. After optimizing the CL reaction conditions, this new luminol–H2O2–HRP–BPB CL system was applied to a sandwich‐type CLIA based on the magnetic separation and the amplification feature of AuNPs as HRP labels. A linear range was obtained when the concentrations of AFP were from 0.1 to 5.0 ng mL−1 (R=0.9997) with the detection limit of 0.01 ng mL−1 (3σ), which is one order of magnitude lower than that obtained without using AuNPs, and much lower than that typically achieved by ELISA. The present method was successfully applied to the determination of AFP in human serum samples. The results indicated that this proposed protocol could be quite promising for the application in immunoassays.
Trapping of a Four‐Coordinate Zinc Salphen Complex Inside a Crystal Matrix

Published: March 2009

A remarkable twosome: Four‐coordinate square‐planar complexes based on [Zn(salen)] derivatives are conveniently captured inside a crystal matrix using a supramolecular protecting strategy (see figure). The four‐coordinate species is accompanied by a five‐coordinate complex that binds an axial ligand able to hydrogen bond to an N‐heterocycle positioned in the axial region of the coordinative unsaturated derivative. The size of the N‐heterocycle is a decisive stabilization parameter.
