A new type of water-soluble coal dust suppressant (later called MA) with excellent performance was prepared by modified starch, styrene, methyl methacrylate, Butyl acrylate (as the main monomers) and acrylic acid (as the functional monomer) via mixed the emulsifiers of Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)/octylphenol polyoxyethylene(10)ether (OP-10) and ammonium persulfate served as initiator. The properties of anti-wind erosion, water retention and coal quality impact were investigated. The MA was characterized by viscosity measurements and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the spraying of MA has no effect on coal quality, and the water loss rate of MA is slightly lower than that of water, which has certain moisture retention. After spraying MA on the surface of coal sample for 120 hours, the coal sample is swept by six-stage wind (wind speed is 10.8-13.8 m/s), and the erosion rate is only 1.8%. The MA and coal samples are closely bonded to form a dense soft film, which has a excellent dust suppression effect.

Aiming to further improve the dust suppression performance of the dust suppressant, the present study independently develops a new type of biodegradable environmentally-friendly dust suppressant. Specifically, the naturally occurring biodegradable soybean protein isolate (SPI) is selected as the main material, which is subject to an anionic surfactant, i.e., sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) for modification with the presence of additives including carboxymethylcellulose sodium and methanesiliconic acid sodium. As a result, the SDS-SPI cementing dust suppressant is produced. The present study experimentally tests solutions with eight different dust suppressant concentrations under the same experimental condition, so as to evaluate their dust suppression performances. Key metrics considered include water retention capability, cementing power and dust suppression efficiency. The optimal concentration of dust suppressant solution is determined by collectively comparing these metrics. The experiments indicate that the optimal dust suppressant concentration is 3%, at which level the newly developed environmentally-friendly dust suppressant solution exhibits a decent dust suppression characteristic, with the water retention power reaching its peak level, and the corresponding viscosity being 12.96 mPa·s. This performance can generally meet the requirements imposed by coal mines. The peak efficiency of dust suppression can reach 92.13%. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the dust suppression mechanism of the developed dust suppressant. It was observed that a dense hardened shell formed on the surface of the pulverized coal particles sprayed with the dust suppressant. There is strong cementation between coal dust particles, and the cementation effect is better. This can effectively inhibit the re-entrainment of coal dust and reduce environmental pollution.

Reduction of human thyroid membranes with dithiothreitol caused the release of a water-soluble glycoprotein which neutralized the thyrotropin (TSH) receptor-binding and thyroid-stimulating activities of Graves‘ serum. Analysis of the protein by gel filtration and sucrose density gradient centrifugation allowed estimates of 3.45 nm for the Stokes’ radius, 3.6 S for the s20,w and 47 000 +/- 5000 (mean +/- S.D.; n = 4) for the Mr. The material released by dithiothreitol treatment could be crosslinked to 125I-labelled TSH coupled to N-hydroxysuccinimidyl 4-azidobenzoate (125I-HSAB-TSH), suggesting that it contained a component of the TSH receptor. Furthermore, analysis of the crosslinked material by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis indicated that it contained the TSH receptor A subunit (Mr 50 000). Several factors suggested therefore that the glycoprotein released by dithiothreitol treatment of human thyroid membranes was the TSH receptor A subunit. In particular, (a) both preparations were hydrophilic and were released from membranes by reduction, (b) they had similar Mr values and (c) both preparations crosslinked to 125I-HSAB-TSH. Material similar to the TSH receptor A subunit was released from thyroid membranes by treatment with papain, probably as a result of cleavage of the receptor A subunit at a site close to the interchain disulphide bridge. A similar mechanism, involving thyroid proteinases, was probably involved in release of material with similar properties to the TSH receptor A subunit during freezing and thawing of human thyroid homogenates.

Polyacrylate microgel emulsion was prepared by emulsion polymerization using styrene, α-n-butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate as monomer, polyoxyethylene octylphenol ether (TX-30) and sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) as combine emulsifier, divinyl benzene and ammonium persulfate (APS) as initiator,respectively. The prepared microgel was analyzed by a variety of measurment methods, such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The effect of microgel on the rheological properties of adhesives, leveling, mechanical properties and pigment printing performance was studied. The rhelogy and the color fastness of the pigment printing binder of printed fabrics were measured by rheometer and friction color fastness test instruments, respectively. At the same time, the mechanical properties of the adhesive film was measured by strength tester. The results show that the thixotropy, leveling and mechanical properties of adhesive printing binder and pringting quality of coating fabrics were improved when the microgel was added.

ABSTRACT The cytoplasmic fumarate reductase of Klebsiella pneumoniae (FRD) is a monomeric protein which contains three prosthetic groups: noncovalently bound FMN and FAD plus a covalently bound FMN. In the present work, NADH is revealed to be an inherent electron donor for this enzyme. We found that the fumarate reductase activity of FRD significantly exceeds its NADH dehydrogenase activity. During the catalysis of NADH:fumarate oxidoreductase reaction, FRD turnover is limited by a very low rate (∼10/s) of electron transfer between the noncovalently and covalently bound FMN moieties. Induction of FRD synthesis in K. pneumoniae cells was observed only under anaerobic conditions in the presence of fumarate or malate. Enzymes with the FRD-like domain architecture are widely distributed among various bacteria and apparently comprise a new type of water-soluble NADH:fumarate oxidoreductases.

Freeze-drying was evaluated as a production technique for co-amorphous systems of a poorly water-soluble drug. Naproxen was freeze-dried together with arginine and lysine as co-former. To increase the solubility of naproxen in the starting solution, the applicability of five surfactants was investigated, namely sodium dodecyl sulfate, pluronic F-127, polyoxyethylene (40) stearate, tween 20 and TPGS 1000. The influence of the surfactant type, surfactant concentration and total solid content to be freeze-dried on the solid state of the sample was investigated. X-ray powder diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry showed that the majority of systems formed co-amorphous one-phase systems. However, at higher surfactant concentrations, and depending on the surfactant type, surfactant reflections were observed in the XRPD analysis upon production. Crystallization of both naproxen and amino acid occurred from some combinations under storage. In conclusion, freeze-drying was shown to be a feasible technique for the production of a selection of co-amorphous drug–amino acid formulations.

Abstract Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) with and without added CMC was exposed to short-term dynamic thermal treatment using a steam jet cooker. The effects of the elevated temperature (130 °C, ∼3 bar) and shear forces on the rheology, crystallinity index, UV/VIS adsorption and water retention were measured. Jet cooking increased the viscosity and gel strength of the MFC and MFC/CMC mixture but with CMC alone a slight decrease in viscosity was observed. The water retention capacity and crystalline indices of the MFC were not greatly affected by the short-term thermal treatment and shear forces, although a slight increase in the UV/VIS absorbance was observed.

In this paper, we present a novel embed fluorescence method that allows one to monitor the change from emulsion polymerization to microemulsion polymerization with low monomer contents. The microemulsion polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) was investigated using N-(2-anthracene) methacrylamide (AnMA) as the probe whose fluorescence emission intensity was proportional to the conversion of MMA into the polymer.In this research, the trace amount of AnMA unit looked like embed in the MMA chain. In a solution containing 3wt% of MMA with respect to water, with the anionic surfactant of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and water-soluble initiator of potassium persulfate (KPS), the process of changing from emulsion to microemulsion has been monitored. By contrast, with the non-ionic surfactant of polyoxyethylene (20) oleyl ether (Brij98) or water-insoluble initiator of 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN), the process of changing from emulsion to microemulsion also have been monitored.

Abstract We developed a direct, simple, and sensitive procedure for the simultaneous colorimetric assay of iron and copper in serum, using sodium dodecyl sulfate-ascorbic acid to dissociate iron and copper from transferrin and ceruloplasmin, respectively. We also use a new water-soluble reagent, 2-(5-nitro-2-pyridylazo)-5-(N-propyl-N-sulfopropylamino)phenol disodium salt (nitro-PAPS) and thioglycolic acid to eliminate interference from copper in the measurement of iron. Within- and between-run precisions of the present method were 2.5-2.8% for iron and 1.8-4.6% for copper. The proposed method is susceptible to interference by hemoglobin and lipemia, especially for the iron assay. Linear-regression analyses of results of the proposed method with those of the bathophenanthroline method for iron and of the atomic absorption spectroscopic method for copper correlated well (r = 0.996, Sy/x = 0.73 and r = 0.959, Sy/x = 1.11, respectively).

In this experiment, a new type of nutritional drink—millet skim milk beverage—was developed based on combining skim milk with millet and nutritional resource utilization. The effects of NaHCO3 concentrations in soaking water (0, 0.5 g/100 mL, and 1.0 g/100 mL) and blanching time (0, 15, and 30 min) on the physicochemical properties of millet skim milk were studied. The parameter changes caused by the above treatment were evaluated via color analysis, physicochemical analysis and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Soaking in water containing NaHCO3 had a significant (p < 0.05) effect on pH, specific gravity, viscosity, and stability. The blanching treatment had a significant (p < 0.05) influence on the total solids of the samples. However, blanching only slightly affected the physical properties of the samples. In addition, soaking and blanching treatments had significant (p < 0.05) effects on the b* value of millet skim milk beverage, whereas there was no significant (p > 0.05) change in L* and a*. SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that the blanching treatment had a significant (p < 0.05) effect on band 5 and band 6 and that the soaking treatment also had a significant effect on the bands of 6 and 7 (p < 0.05). By analyzing the substantial effects, we concluded that the optimum process conditions were soaking with 0.5 g/100 mL NaHCO3 solution and blanching for 15 min.
