Abstract Antiserum performance in a nephelometric system can be characterized by parameters derived from measuring reaction rates. The characterization process is derived from a series of dose-response curves (elicited nephelometric response vs antigen concentration) generated from various dilutions of the antiserum being tested. Antiserum titer can then be calculated by plotting the antigen concentration found at one-half the maximum nephelometric response (Hmax) of each dose-response curve (C50) vs the corresponding antiserum dilution. Antiserum avidity can be calculated by plotting Hmax against its corresponding antiserum concentration. After general expressions are determined for C50 and Hmax vs antiserum concentration, a single dose-response curve suffices for characterizing antisera with respect to titer and avidity. Direct evidence is provided for the validity of C50 and Hmax as measures of titer and avidity by correlating these parameters with antiserum binding strength and with the number of antibodies eluted from immobilized antigen. This method can be applied to evaluate and compare different antiserum lots having the same specificity, to identify reagent inadequacies by comparing antisera of different specificity, and to predict the optimal antiserum dilution to use in performing an assay.

The Schiff base, N-n-butylsalicylideneimine, extracts more than 99.8% beryllium into toluene from dilute aqueous solution. The distribution of beryllium has been studied in the pH range 5-13 and is discussed in terms of the several complex equilibria in aqueous solution. The stability constants of the complexes formed between beryllium and the Schiff base are log β1 11.1 and log β2 20.4, and the distribution coefficient of the bis complex is 550. Over most of the pH range, hydrolysis of the Be2+ ion competes with complex formation and provides a means of measuring the hydrolysis constants. They are for the reactions: Be(H2O)42+ ↔ 2H+ + Be(H2O)2(OH)2, log*β2 - 13.65; Be(H2O)42+ ↔ 3H+ + Be(H2O)(OH)3-, log*β3 -24.11.

Al2O3-Al2Cu3 multiphase coatings were prepared on the surface of steel by reactive flame spray. The binding strength, microhardness and abrasion quality of the coatings were measured and analyzed. The influence of the agglomerate size on the properties of the coatings was emphatically studied to choose suitable size range for Al-CuO reactive system. The results showed that coatings prepared by using –150∼+250 meshes agglomerates exhibited good mechanical properties.

Liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) is widely used to produce colloidal dispersions of nanomaterials, in particular two-dimensional nanosheets. The degree of exfoliation, i.e., the length to thickness aspect ratio was shown to be intrinsically limited by the ratio of in-plane to out-of-plane binding strength. In this work, we investigate whether simple pretreatment of the starting material can be used to change the in-plane to out-of-plane binding strength through mild intercalation to improve the sample quality in sonication-assisted LPE. Five different pretreatment conditions of WS2 were tested and the dispersions size-selected through centrifugation. From optical spectroscopy (extinction, Raman, photoluminescence), information on nanosheet dimension (average lateral size, layer number, monolayer size) and optical quality (relative photoluminescence quantum yield) was extracted. We find that the pretreatment has a minor impact on the length/thickness aspect ratio, but that photoluminescence quantum yield can be increased in particular using mild sonication conditions. We attribute this to the successful exfoliation of nanosheets with a lower degree of basal plane defectiveness. This work emphasizes the complexity of the exfoliation process and suggests that the role of defects has to be considered for a comprehensive picture.
