Toward Extreme Biophysics: Deciphering the Infrared Response of Biomolecular Solutions at High Pressures
Authors: Imoto Sho , Kibies Patrick , Rosin Christopher , Winter Roland , Kast Stefan M. , Marx Dominik 
Published: June 2016

AbstractBiophysics under extreme conditions is the fundamental platform for scrutinizing life in unusual habitats, such as those in the deep sea or continental subsurfaces, but also for putative extraterrestrial organisms. Therefore, an important thermodynamic variable to explore is pressure. It is shown that the combination of infrared spectroscopy with simulation is an exquisite approach for unraveling the intricate pressure response of the solvation pattern of TMAO in water, which is expected to be transferable to biomolecules in their native solvent. Pressure‐enhanced hydrogen bonding was found for TMAO in water. TMAO is a molecule known to stabilize proteins against pressure‐induced denaturation in deep‐sea organisms.

Published: June 2016

AbstractExtended bis(benzothia)quinodimethanes and their dications were synthesized as stable species. The neutral compounds mainly have a quinoidal structure in the ground state but show increased diradical character with extension of the central quinodimethane unit. The dications exhibit similar electronic absorption spectra, NMR spectra, NICS values, and diatropic ring currents to their aromatic all‐carbon acene analogues and thus can be regarded as genuine isoelectronic structures of pentacene, hexacene, and heptacene, respectively. Our research gave some insights into the design and synthesis of stable longer acene analogues.

AbstractThe high‐pressure synthesis of a manganese oxyhydride LaSrMnO3.3H0.7is reported. Neutron and X‐ray Rietveld analyses showed that this compound adopts the K2NiF4structure with hydride ions positioned exclusively at the equatorial site. This result makes a striking contrast to topochemical reductions of LaSrMnO4that result in only oxygen‐deficient phases down to LaSrMnO3.5. This suggests that high H2pressure plays a key role in stabilizing the oxyhydride phase, offering an opportunity to synthesize other transition‐metal oxyhydrides. Magnetic susceptibility revealed a spin‐glass transition at 24 K that is due to competing ferromagnetic (Mn2+–Mn3+) and antiferromagnetic (Mn2+–Mn2, Mn3+–Mn3+) interactions.
Electrochemical Red Blood Cell Counting: One at a Time
Authors: Sepunaru Lior , Sokolov Stanislav V. , Holter Jennifer , Young Neil P. , Compton Richard G. 
Published: June 2016

AbstractWe demonstrate that the concentration of a red blood cell solution under physiological conditions can be determined by electrochemical voltammetry. The magnitude of the oxygen reduction currents produced at an edge‐plane pyrolytic graphite electrode was diagnosed analytically at concentrations suitable for a point‐of‐care test device. The currents could be further enhanced when the solution of red blood cells was exposed to hydrogen peroxide. We show that the enhanced signal can be used to detect red blood cells at a single entity level. The method presented relies on the catalytic activity of red blood cells towards hydrogen peroxide and on surface‐induced haemolysis. Each single cell activity is expressed as current spikes decaying within a few seconds back to the background current. The frequency of such current spikes is proportional to the concentration of cells in solution.

Published: June 2016

AbstractMetal cyanide coordination compounds are recognized as promising candidates for broad applications because of their tailorable and adjustable frameworks. Developing the nanostructure of a coordination compound may be an effective way to enhance the performance of that material in application‐based roles. A controllable preferential etching method is described for synthesis of monocrystalline Prussian blue analogue (PBA) nanoframes, without the use of organic additives. The PBA nanoframes show remarkable rate performance and cycling stability for sodium/lithium ion insertion/extraction.

Published: June 2016

ABSTRACTBecause of the sizes of the pore throat are on the nanometer scale, nanoparticles with sizes on the nanoscale have been developed as candidates for plugging materials during drilling in shale formation. In this study, Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared by a coprecipitation method, and then, Fe3O4/poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hybrid nanoparticles were obtained through the modification of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles with PAA. The hybrid nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The magnetic properties, salt tolerance, and compatibility with sulfomethylated phenolic resin of the nanoparticles were studied. The plugging properties of the Fe3O4/PAA hybrid nanoparticles were evaluated by filtration testing of the filter cakes at ambient temperature and 80 °C. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Function analysis of Mef2c promoter in muscle differentiation
Authors: Jin Wei , Liu Min , Peng Jian , Jiang Siwen 
Published: June 2016

AbstractRegeneration of adult skeletal muscle following injury occurs through the activation of satellite cells that proliferates, differentiates, and fuses with injured myofibers. Myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) proteins are reported to have the potential contributions to adult muscle regeneration. To further understand Mef2c gene, the promoter of pig Mef2c gene was analyzed in this paper. Quantitative real‐time PCR (qRT‐PCR) revealed the expression pattern of Mef2c gene in muscle of eight tissues. The Mef2c promoter had the higher transcriptional activity in differentiated C2C12 cells than that in proliferating C2C12 cells, which was accompanied by the upregulation of mRNA expression of Mef2c gene. Function deletion and mutation analyses showed that MyoD and MEF2 binding sites within the Mef2c promoter were responsible for the regulation of Mef2c transcription. MEF2C could upregulate the transcriptional activities of Mef2c promoter constructs, which contained a 3′‐end nucleotide sequence with p300 binding site. The electrophoretic mobility shift assays and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays determined the MyoD binding site in Mef2c promoter. These results advanced our knowledge of the promoter of the pig Mef2c gene, and the study of Mef2c promoter regulator elements helped to elucidate the regulation mechanisms of Mef2c in muscle differentiation or muscle repair and regeneration.
Photoluminescence, semiconductive properties and theoretical calculation of a novel bismuth biimidazole compound
Authors: Zhang Ding‐Wa , Chen Wen‐Tong , Wang Yin‐Feng 
Published: June 2016

AbstractA novel bismuth biimidazole compound, [(BiCl4)‐(μ2‐Cl)2‐(BiCl4)][(CH3)4‐2,2'‐biimidazole]2 (1) with the (CH3)4‐2,2'‐biimidazole moiety generated in situ, was successfully prepared under hydrothermal conditions and structurally characterized using a single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction technique. Compound 1 is characteristic of an isolated structure, consisting of [(BiCl4)‐(μ2‐Cl)2‐(BiCl4)] and (CH3)4‐2,2'‐biimidazole moieties. Solid‐state photoluminescence measurement reveals that it shows a strong emission in the blue region. Time‐dependent density functional theory studies show that this emission is ascribed to metal‐to‐ligand charge transfer. The solid‐state diffuse reflectance spectrum reveals the existence of an optical band gap of 2.09 eV, indicating that it is a semiconductor.
Binding and thermodynamics of REV peptide−ctDNA interaction
Authors: Upadhyay Santosh Kumar 
Published: June 2016

AbstractThe thermodynamics of DNA‐ligand binding is important as it provides useful information to understand the details of binding processes. HIV‐1 REV response element (RRE) located in the env coding region of the viral genome is reported to be well conserved across different HIV‐1 isolates. In this study, the binding characteristics of Calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) and REV peptide from HIV‐1 were investigated using spectroscopic (UV–visible, fluorescence, and circular dichroism (CD)) and isothermal titration calorimetric (ITC) techniques. Thermal stability and ligand binding properties of the ctDNA revealed that native ctDNA had a Tm of 75.5 °C, whereas the ctDNA–REV peptide complex exhibited an incremental shift in the Tm by 8 °C, indicating thermal stability of the complex. CD data indicated increased ellipticity due to large conformational changes in ctDNA molecule upon binding with REV peptide and two binding stoichiometric modes are apparent. The ctDNA experienced condensation due to large conformational changes in the presence of REV peptide and positive B→Ψ transition was observed at higher molar charge ratios. Fluorescence studies performed at several ligand concentrations revealed a gradual decrease in the fluorescence intensity of EtBr‐bound ctDNA in response to increasing ligand concentrations. The fluorescence data further confirmed two stoichiometric modes of binding for ctDNA–REV peptide complex as previously observed with CD studies. The binding enthalpies were determined using ITC in the temperature range of 293 K–308 K. The ITC binding isotherm was exothermic at all temperatures examined, with low ΔH values indicating that the ctDNA–REV peptide interaction is driven largely by entropy. The heat capacity change (ΔCp) was insignificant, an unusual finding in the area of DNA‐peptide interaction studies. The variation in the values obtained for ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG with temperature further suggests that ctDNA–REV peptide interaction is entropically driven. ITC based analysis of salt dependence of binding constant gave a charge value (Z) = +4.01, as determined for the δlnK/δln[Na+] parameter, suggesting the participation of only 3–4 Arg out of 11 Arg charge from REV peptide. The stoichiometry observed for the complex was three molar charge of REV peptide binding per molar charge of ctDNA. ITC based analysis further confirmed that the binding between ctDNA and REV peptide is governed by electrostatic interaction. Molecular interactions including H‐bonding, van der Waals forces, and solvent molecules rearrangement, underlie the binding of REV peptide to ctDNA.
The Consolidation of the ESG Rating Industry as an Enactment of Institutional Retrogression
Authors: Avetisyan Emma , Hockerts Kai 
Published: June 2016

AbstractThe socially responsible investing (SRI) movement has been aiming to create lasting institutional change by infusing the investment sector with new norms and values. Environmental, social and governance (ESG) rating agencies have emerged in response to the needs of SRI actors for reliable data on the social performance of firms. Since 2005, the ESG rating industry has witnessed a number of national and cross‐border consolidations. Based on a set of 37 interviews and secondary data, the paper explores the driving forces behind this consolidation as well as its impact. Our focus is on four ESG rating agencies, based in the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Switzerland. We conclude that in effect consolidation has at least partially resulted in institutional retrogression, whereby the traditional norms and values have reaffirmed their primacy, thereby somewhat negating the institutional change sought by the SRI movement.

Characterization of Structural and Electronic Transitions During Reduction and Oxidation of Ru(acac)3 Flow Battery Electrolytes by using X‐ray Absorption Spectroscopy

Published: June 2016

AbstractMetal acetylacetonates possess several very attractive electrochemical properties; however, their cyclabilities fall short of targets for use in nonaqueous redox flow batteries. This paper describes structural and compositional changes during the reduction and oxidation of ruthenium(III) acetylacetonate [Ru(acac)3], a representative acetylacetonate. Voltammetry, bulk electrolysis, and in situ X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) results are complemented by those from density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The reduction of Ru(acac)3 in acetonitrile is highly reversible, producing a couple at −1.1 V versus Ag/Ag+. In situ XAS and DFT indicate the formation of [Ru(acac)3]− with Ru−O bonds lengthened relative to Ru(acac)3, nearly all of the charge localized on Ru, and no ligand shedding. The oxidation of Ru(acac)3 is quasireversible, with a couple at 0.7 V. The initial product is likely [Ru(acac)3]+; however, this species is short‐lived, converting to a product with a couple at −0.2 V, a structure that is nearly identical to that of Ru(acac)3 within 3 Å of Ru, and approximately 70 % of the charge extracted from Ru (balance from acetylacetone). This non‐innocence likely contributes to the instability of [Ru(acac)3]+. Taken together, the results suggest that the stabilities and cyclabilities of acetylacetonates are determined by the degree of charge transfer to/from the metal.

Published: June 2016

AbstractRational design and synthesis of advanced anode materials are extremely important for high‐performance lithium‐ion and sodium‐ion batteries. Herein, a simple one‐step hydrothermal method is developed for fabrication of N‐C@MoS2 microspheres with the help of polyurethane as carbon and nitrogen sources. The MoS2 microspheres are composed of MoS2 nanoflakes, which are wrapped by an N‐doped carbon layer. Owing to its unique structural features, the N‐C@MoS2 microspheres exhibit greatly enhanced lithium‐ and sodium‐storage performances including a high specific capacity, high rate capability, and excellent capacity retention. Additionally, the developed polyurethane‐assisted hydrothermal method could be useful for the construction of many other high‐capacity metal oxide/sulfide composite electrode materials for energy storage.

AbstractThe atomic redistribution processes occurring in multiparticle nanostructures are hardly understood. To obtain a more detailed insight, we applied high‐resolution microscopic, diffraction and spectroscopic characterization techniques to investigate the fine structure and elemental distribution of various bimetallic aerogels with 1:1 compositions, prepared by self‐assembly of single monometallic nanoparticles. The system Au–Ag exhibited a complete alloy formation, whereas Pt–Pd aerogels formed a Pd‐based network with embedded Pt particles. The assembly of Au and Pd nanoparticles resulted in a Pd‐shell formation around the Au particles. This work confirms that bimetallic aerogels are subject to reorganization processes during their gel formation.
