The effects of sonication time,particle size,ultrasonic power and liquid to solid ratio on protein content were investigated. The result showed that the optimal conditions for concentrating protein in rapeseed meal were: sonication time of 40 min,particle size of 40 mesh,ultrasonic power of 800 W and liquid to solid ratio of 9∶ 1. Under these conditions,the protein content in rapeseed meal was increased to 55. 47%,which was 10. 43% higher than that in rapeseed meal not treated by sonication.展开更多

The catalyst was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). This polystyrene-supported palladium-complex was an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for cross-coupling of aryl iodides with ethyl acrylate. The reaction of iodobenzene and ethyl acrylate under N2 at 100 °C and a catalyst concentration of 0.1% gave a gas chromatography product yield of 99.8%, which is much higher than that achieved using a free palladium(II) complex of MTP as the catalyst (41.3%). The catalyst was recycled up to six times without significant loss of catalytic activity. These results suggest that the immobilized palladium(II) MTP catalyst has potential applications in synthetic and industrial chemistry.展开更多

The laser resonator is a simple and compact linear cavity using two fiber end-facet mirrors. The SA is fabricated by Bi2Se3/polyvinyl alcohol composite film. By inserting the SA into the laser cavity, a stable Q-switching operation is achieved with the shortest pulse width and maximum pulse repetition rate of 601 ns and 205.2 kHz,respectively. The maximum average output power and maximum pulse energy obtained are about 6.6 mW and 38.8 nJ, respectively.展开更多

The feasibility of GAMS for capturing BSA-loaded MPMs from an appropriate medium was shown, High recovery of BSA-loaded MPMs was obtained by simple adjustment of the initial solution pH without extra detergents and antifoaming agents. The GAMS con- ditions were consistent with the adsorption conditions, and no proteins were desorbed from the MPMs during this process. Under the optimal conditions, the separation rate and recovery percentage reached 410 mL/min and 98% in 0.61 min, respectively. Conformational changes of BSA during the GAMS process were investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectrometry,展开更多
