Results indicate that ...Extraction of theanine from waste liquid of tea polyphenol production was studied in aqueous surfactanttwo-phase system （ASTP） with cationic surfactant （CTAB） and anionic surfactant （SDS）. Results indicate that the region of ASTP is narrow and there is only a two-phase region of cationic surfactant. The increase in concentrations of NaBr and Na2SO4 are beneficial to the formation of ASTP. Theanine concentration in the bottom phase increases with increasing concentration of theanine, whereas the Partition coefficient and extraction rate only change a littlewhen the concentration of theanine is above 0.2 g.L-＇. With the increase of SDS concentration, the phase ratio and the partition coefficient decrease, while the extraction efficiency of theanine increases and the concentration of theanine changes a little in the range from 2.4/7.5 to 2.8/7.2 for SDS/CTAB ratio. The temperature has a notable ef- fect on the concentration of theanine in the bottom phase, partition coefficient and extraction rate of theanine. The increase of waste liquid decreases the phase ratio, increases the concentration and extraction rate of theanine in the bottom ohase, since the orotein and the saccharide enter the bottom nhase with theanine.展开更多

EL31410. The elastase and cell partition behavior in polyethylene glycol （PEG）/salt systems was investigated. The suitable system for elastase extraction was PEG/KHEPO4-KEHPO4, in which elastase is mainly partitioned into the PEG-rich phase, while the cells remained in the other phase. The influence of defined system parameters （e.g. PEG molecular mass, pH, NaCl addition） on the partitioning behavior of elastase is described. The concentration of phase forming components, PEG and KHEPO4-KEHPO4, was optimized for elastase recovery by means of response surface methodology, and it was found that they greatly influenced extraction recovery. The optimal ATPS was 23.1% （w/w） PEG 2000 and 11.7% （w/w） KHEPO4-KEHPO4. The predicted recovery was about 89.5%, so this process is suggested to be a rapid and convenient method for elastase extraction.展开更多

The aqueous two-phase system was used to separate butyric acid from the actual fermentation broth with satisfac-tory result.展开更多

The process was named as simultaneous cell disruption and aqueous two-phase extraction (SDATE). Advantages, such as high cell disruption efficiency, biochemical activities preservation of proteins, cell debris elimination, and prelimiary purification of the target protein were being claimed. When this technique was employed for isolating recombinant Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) from E. coli, overall protein concentration and TNF activity were found to have been increased. More than 95% of TNF was partitioned into the top phase and all cell debris were in the bottom phase. The partition coefficient was greater than 3 and the TNF purification factor was greater than 6. It is shown that less separation steps were being utilized in the new technique, meaning a reduction in separation time and less process extractors required.展开更多

An aqueous two-phase system （polyethylene glycol （PEG）/MgSO4） was examined with regard to the effects of PEG molecular weight （MW） and concentration, MgSO4 concentration, pH and NaC1 concentration on enzyme partition and extraction. The MW and concentration of PEG were found to have significant effects on enzyme partition and extraction with low MW PEG showing the greatest benefit in the partition and extraction of β-glucanase with the PEG/MgSO4 system. MgSO4 concentration influenced the partition and extraction of β-glucanase significantly, pH had little effect on β-glucanase or proteases partition but affected a-amylase partition when pH was over 7.0. The addition of NaCl had little effect on the partition behavior of β-glucanase but had very significant effects on the partitioning of α-amylase and on the neutral proteases. The partition behaviors of β-glucanase, α-amylase and proteases in whole broth were also investigated and results were similar to those obtained with clarified fermentation broth. A two-step process for purifying β-glucanase was developed, which achieved β-glucanase recovery of 65.3% and specific activity of 14027 U/mg, 6.6 times improvement over the whole broth.展开更多

In this paper, the hydrophobic complex composed of Mg（II） and TC was floated into organic phase under the optimal conditions： pH=10, the floatation equipment is home-made, n-propyl alcohol as the organic solvent, sodium chloride as the separating phase reagent. The data were obtained by spectrophotometry after floatation; The linear regression equation is A=2.33×10^5C（mol/L）＋0.2179, linear range is from 3.77×10^-7mol/L to 6.32×10^-5 mol/L, respectively, with thecorrelation coefficient （r） better than 0.9997, relative recoveries is 99.7% to 100.3%, limit of detection was 4.29×10^-5mol/L, The method can be applied to analyse the trace TC in water sample, the result is better.
文摘The phenomenon of two dilute aqueous phases composed of sodium dodecylsulfate(SDS) and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide(CTAB) was investigated under various conditions such as concentrations and molar ratios of the two surfactants, the addition of sodium chloride and temperature. Vesicles formation was found in the both phases by TEM image.

文摘Partition coefficients of Urokinase(UK)were measured in aqueous two-phase systems con-taining polyethylene glycol and potassium phosphate at 273.2K.Based on the Diamond-Hsu model,a modified expression was obtained for the correlation of enzyme partitioning in theabove-mentioned systems.Utilizing a modified form,the partitioning data of UK and heteroproteinwere correlated.The results show that the modified model is simple gives good precision.and will fa-cilitate engineering scale-up of aqueous two-phase systems for certain proteins purification.
文摘The interesting phenopmena of two aqueous phases coexisting in dilute aqueous solutions of sodium undecenoate-dodecyltrimethylammo brodride ndxture and sodium laurate-dodecyltrimethylammonium brondde mixture were investigated. Vesicles existing in both phases were shown by TEM images. The vesicles are dispersed in lower phase and flocculated in upper phase. Multilamellar structure of vesicles was found in the upper phase of sodium laurate-dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide system.
