ABSTRACTIn this study, 3 types of zwitterionic phospholipid biosurfactants LDP(S), CDP(S) and CTDP(S) were prepared from 3 different raw materials such as rapeseed oil, coconut oil and cottonseed oil respectively. The structure of the resulting phospholipid biosurfactants was elucidated by FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopies and their interfacial properties have been examined such as CMC, static surface tension, wetting property, solution stability, and foam property. Interfacial property measurement and prescription test in cosmetic formulation prepared with the newly synthesized biosurfactants revealed that CDP(S) biosurfactant possesses excellent mildness and superior interfacial properties, indicating the potential applicability in cosmetic product formulations.

Sherry wine vinegar is a Spanish gourmet product under Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). Before a vinegar can be labeled as Sherry vinegar, the product must meet certain requirements as established by its PDO, which, in this case, means that it has been produced following the traditional solera and criadera ageing system. The quality of the vinegar is determined by many factors such as the raw material, the acetification process or the aging system. For this reason, mainly producers, but also consumers, would benefit from the employment of effective analytical tools that allow precisely determining the origin and quality of vinegar. In the present study, a total of 48 Sherry vinegar samples manufactured from three different starting wines (Palomino Fino, Moscatel, and Pedro Ximénez wine) were analyzed by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The spectroscopic data were combined with unsupervised exploratory techniques such as hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA), as well as other nonparametric supervised techniques, namely, support vector machine (SVM) and random forest (RF), for the characterization of the samples. The HCA and PCA results present a clear grouping trend of the vinegar samples according to their raw materials. SVM in combination with leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) successfully classified 100% of the samples, according to the type of wine used for their production. The RF method allowed selecting the most important variables to develop the characteristic fingerprint (“spectralprint”) of the vinegar samples according to their starting wine. Furthermore, the RF model reached 100% accuracy for both LOOCV and out-of-bag (OOB) sets.

Copolymers based on 1, 4-diethoxybenzene (DEB) and 3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) were electrochemically synthesized and characterized. The structures of the copolymers were established by 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The results indicated the final product was a copolymer instead of a blend or a composite. The physical properties were systematically investigated by cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis absorption and fluorescence. The PL maximum of copolymers presented obviously red-shift to long wavelength as the feed ratio of EDOT in monomer mixture increased.

In this paper, we firstly synthesized glycyrrhetinic acid-modified double amino-terminated poloxamer 188 (GA–NH–POLO–NH–GA). The structure of the synthesized compound was confirmed by 1H-NMR and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Then the nanoparticles composed of GA–NH–POLO–NH–GA/chitosan (GA–NH–POLO–NH–GA/CTS) were prepared by an ionic gelation process. The characterization of the nanoparticles was measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that the nanoparticles were well dispersed with a spherical shape and the particle size was distributed between 100 nm and 300 nm. The cytotoxicity based on MTT assay against cells (QGY-7703 cells and L929 cells) showed that the nanoparticles had low toxicity and good biocompatibility. The encapsulation efficiency and drug loading of 5-fluorouracil-loaded nanoparticles (5-FU nanoparticles) were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorbance. The encapsulation of 5-Fu-loaded CTS nanoparticles was 12.8% and the drug loading was 2.9%, while the encapsulation of 5-Fu-loaded GA–NH–POLO–NH–GA/CTS nanoparticles was 20.9% and the drug loading was 3.36%. The release profile showed that the GA–NH–POLO–NH–GA/CTS nanoparticles were available for sustained release of 5-Fu. The GA–NH–POLO–NH–GA/CTS nanoparticles have a higher affinity to the QGY-7703 cells, so indicated that the GA–NH–POLO–NH–GA/CTS nanoparticles have the capacity of liver-targeting in vitro.

The biomineral-binding alendronate-chitosan conjugate (Scheme 1) was developed as a novel drug delivery system. Alendronate was conjugated to the hydroxyl groups of chitosan, thereby maintaining the amino groups of chitosan intact. By means of FT-IR and 1H NMR, the characterization was conducted to confirm the successful synthesis of alendronate-chitosan conjugate.

New ball-type metallobisphthalocyanines 2 (Co[Formula: see text]Pc[Formula: see text] and 3(Zn[Formula: see text]Pc[Formula: see text] were synthesized from the corresponding 4,4[Formula: see text]-[(5,6-diaminopyrimidine-2,4-diyl)bis(oxy)] diphytalonitril 1, which can be obtained by a nucleophilic displacement reaction of 4-nitrophthalonitrile with 5,6-diaminouracil sulfate. Characterization of novel compounds was performed by UV-vis, FT-IR, [Formula: see text]H-NMR, MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Organic field effect transistor devices (OFETs) with top gate structure were fabricated using these novel compounds as the active material. The devices were characterized by means of their output and transfer characteristics, and it was found that these OFET devices exhibit [Formula: see text]-type behavior. When compared with the 2-based device, the OFET with 3 showed higher field effect mobility and larger on/of current ratio.

The properties and coordination characteristics of the three calixarene complexes were determined by elemental analyses, electronic absorption, X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EXAFS), TG-DTA, FT-IR, SEM, and1H-NMR spectroscopy. The effect of various organic solvents on complexes1,2, and3has been discussed based on results from electronic absorption spectra. The polar protic solvents showed the most significant molar extinction coefficients in comparison with those of nonpolar and polar aprotic solvents. The Ce3+ions in the complexes are proved to combine with the ligand phenolic groups, oxygen atoms of DMF molecules, and/or OH−ions.

The glyoxalted polyacrylamide(GPAM) resins were obtained by cross-linking reaction between glyoxal and cationic polyacrylamide(CPAM) through aqueous solution copolymerization. The based CPAM was synthesized with acrylamide(AM) and diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride(DADMAC) as raw materials by living free radical solution polymerization. Various synthesis conditions were discussed and the optimum conditions for copolymer’s synthesis were as follows: the amount of DADMAC 20%(wt), the charge of the initiator 0.5%(wt), the dosage of chain transfer agent(2-mercaptoethanol) 1.0%(wt), and the charge of crosslinking monomer 9.0%, the dosage of glyoxal 25%(wt), the pH value of the tertiary reaction 7.5-8.0 and the tertiary temperature about 65°C. The structure of the resulting product was characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR. Then the GPAM resins were used in the process of paper-making as wet-end additive, the results showed that the paper sheets can get a significant increase in strength properties from the added novel product.

The synthesis of novel bis-axially coordinated ruthenium(II) complexes with tetra-15-crown-5-phthalocyanine and N-donor ligands ( R 4 Pc ) Ru ( L 2) ( R 4Pc2- = 4,5,4',5',4'',5'', 4''',5'''- tetrakis(1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxotridecamethylene)phthalocyaninate-ion, L = pyridine (py), isoquino-line (iqnl), triethylamine ( Et 3 N )) is reported. The preparation technique involves the interaction of ( R 4 Pc ) Ru ( CO )( CH 3 OH ) with trimethylamine oxide in an N-donor solvent. The advantage of this method consists in selective carbonyl ejection from ( R 4 Pc ) Ru ( CO ) X with simultaneous substi-tution by N-donor ligands. The application of this procedure allowed us to decrease essentially the reaction time, as compared with photochemical methods, as well as to increase substantially the yield of reaction products. UV-visible, 1 H NMR, FT-IR and mass-spectrometry were used for characterization of the obtained compounds.
