AbstractThe surface activity of carbon black (CB) is an important factor affecting the reinforcement of rubber. The quantitative determination of the surface activity (surface free energy) of CB is of great significance. A simplified formula is obtained to determine the free energy of CB surface through theoretical analysis and mathematical derivation. The surface free energy for four kinds of industrial CBs were measured by inverse gas chromatography, and the influential factors were studied. The results showed that the aging time of the chromatographic column plays an important role in accurate measurement of the surface free energy of CB, in comparison with the influences from the inlet pressure and carrier gas flow rate of the chromatographic column filled with CB. Several kinds of industrial CB were treated at high temperature, and the surface free energy of CB had a significant increase. With the increase of surface free energy, the maximum torque was decreased significantly, the elongation at break tended to increase, the heat generation of vulcanizates was increased, and the wear resistance was decreased.

Methods for extraction, concentration and determination of minute quantities of soluble carbohydrates, lactic acid and volatile fatty acids have been described. Different factors affecting the accuracy of the determinations have been studied and corrections, where necessary, have been suggested.

We studied the mechanisms responsible for causing acute changes in plasma lipids during hemodialysis. Dialysis decreased plasma triglycerides to the same extent as when heparin was given without dialysis. Cholesterol increased in proportion to hemoconcentration. Plasma free fatty acids (FFA) levels were also increased, but more so than with heparin alone. Glucose and acetate did not play a role, nor did carnitine loss, and hemofiltration elicited similar effects. The rise in plasma FFA is therefore likely to be caused by other as yet unknown mechanism.

Agarwood is the resinous wood produced in some Aquilaria species and is highly valued for wide usages in medicine, incense, and perfume. To protect the threatened Aquilaria species, the cultivation of Aquilaria sinensis and artificial agarwood induction techniques have been effectively established in China. To evaluate the quality of agarwood induced by different techniques, patterns of chemical constituents in artificial agarwood by four methods (wounding using an axe, burning-chisel-drilling, chemical inducer, and biological inoculation) were analyzed and compared by UPLC-ESI-MS/MS and GC-EI-MS in this study. Results of GC-MS gave a panorama of chemical constituents in agarwood, including aromatic compounds, steroids, fatty acids, sesquiterpenoids, and 2-(2-phenlyethyl)-chromones (PECs). Sesquiterpenoids were dominant in agarwood induced by wounding using an axe. PEC comprised over 60% of components in agarwood produced by biological inoculation and chemical inducers. PECs were identified by UPLC-ESI-MS/MS in all artificial agarwood and the relative contents varied in different groups. Tetrahydro-2-(2-phenylethyl)-chromones (THPECs) in wounding by axes induced agarwood were lower while 2-(2-phenylethyl)-chromones (FPECs) were higher than other groups. The results showed that methods used for inducing agarwood formation in Aquilaria sinensis affect the chemical constituents of agarwood.

Oral sensitivity to acids mediates a range of irritation, from desirable sensations of pungency in various foods and beverages to the pain associated with harmful levels of acidity and inflammation. To characterize the role of the epithelial and vascular processes in neural sensitivity to acid applied to the lingual mucosa, we measured lingual trigeminal nerve responses in rats to acidic stimuli of varying physicochemical properties. Stimulatory efficacy was strongly correlated with lipophilicity (octanol-H2O partition coefficient) for the series of straight-chain fatty acids from one to six carbons. Neither acid dissociation constant nor the pH of stimulus solutions correlated with stimulatory efficacy for the fatty acids and six other organic acids. The hypothesis that weakly acidic stimuli gain access to trigeminal nerve endings primarily through the lipid phase of the epithelium was supported by these findings. Further support for this hypothesis is the result that LaCl3, an inhibitor of epithelial tight junctions, had no effect on the neural response to n-pentanoic acid. The potential relevance of buffering-clearance in modulating responses to acid was indicated by the finding that the application of 1 mM capsaicin to the tongue reversibly inhibited the neural response to acid, as well as causing plasma extravasation in lingual epithelium.

Abstract Lichens, Lipids, Phenols The three lichen species Alectoria ochroleuca, Stereocaulon vesuvianum var. pulvinatum and Icmadophila ericetorum have been chemically investigated with regard to their content of aliphatic and aromatic compounds. Tetrahydroxy fatty acids were isolated in all three species. A mono-acetylated pentol, higher fatty acids and an unsaturated triglyceride were detected as new con­ stituents of A. ochroleuca and I. ericetorum. S. vesuvianum and I. ericetorum both contained phenolic components which not previously have been discussed in literature. Chemical and spectro­ scopic evidences are presented in these studies.
