RESUMO
Centrifugal droplet-based microfluidic devices have been applied to biomedical analysis and diagnostics recently. However, in centrifugal droplet-based microfluidic devices, droplets are tightly packed (i.e., the oil film between neighbouring droplets is thin). Therefore, droplet coalescence usually occurs especially during thermal incubation process. To preserve individual droplets in the devices, we report a new design for monodisperse droplet generation and storage that exploits a centrifugal configuration for droplet emulsification and oil-storage structures (OSSs) for regulation of the thickness of oil film between neighbouring droplets. The centrifugal emulsifier was well designed to ensure uniform droplet generation. Meanwhile, the OSSs could store oil during centrifugal emulsification while release oil before thermal incubation, which "loosen" tightly packed droplets to prevent droplets from coalescing. In this paper, the working process of OSS was analysed, and its shape and size were optimized. Then, the optimized OSSs were integrated into a centrifugal emulsifier for droplet digital loop mediated isothermal amplification (ddLAMP) by which detection of JAK2 V617F mutation within myeloproliferative neoplasms with a dynamic range of 101 to 104 copies per µL was achieved. We anticipate that the simplicity and robustness of our system make it attractive as an inexpensive and easy-to-operate device for DNA amplification, particularly applicable in point-of-care settings.

Upon excitation at 308 nm, 4-biphenyl carbonyl azide (4-BpCON3) shows unusually fast decay of transient absorption associated with the first excited singlet state, with time constants of several ps in MeOH, acetonitrile, and CHCl3. In cyclohexane and cyclohexene, the lifetimes are ca. 0.3 ps, which is in stark contrast to the lifetimes of hundreds of ps in the case of 2-naphthoyl azide. Furthermore, photolysis at 266 and 308 nm brought about the same yields of nitrene and isocyanate products. To understand these findings, we also applied ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy to the structurally related molecule, fluorene-2-carbonyl azide (F2CON3), in which the two phenyl rings are fixed in a plane by a methylene group. Both carbonyl azides (biphenyl and fluorenyl) have very short lived excited states in different solvents, indicating that the twisting of phenyl rings is not the reason for the fast decay. Theoretical studies using time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), especially with PBE0 and CAM-B3LYP functionals, suggest that excited-state potential energy surface crossings lead to the efficient and fast decomposition of carbonyl azides upon photoexcitation. Especially, the decay of the Franck-Condon state to the S1 state with π(CON3)-π*(N3') transition character, where -N3 is in a bent conformation (â NNN = ca. 125°), is the key step. Finally, a model is presented to explain solvent dependence, different decaying rates, and other experimental findings.
RESUMO
Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) catalyzes the interconversion between pyruvate and lactate with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) as a cofactor. Using isotope-edited difference Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy on the "live" reaction mixture (LDH·NADH·pyruvate â LDH·NAD(+)·lactate) for the wild-type protein and a mutant with an impaired catalytic efficiency, a set of interconverting conformational substates within the pyruvate side of the Michaelis complex tied to chemical activity is revealed. The important structural features of these substates include (1) electronic orbital overlap between pyruvate's C2âO bond and the nicotinamide ring of NADH, as shown from the observation of a delocalized vibrational mode involving motions from both moieties, and (2) a characteristic hydrogen bond distance between the pyruvate C2âO group and active site residues, as shown by the observation of at least four C2âO stretch bands indicating varying degrees of C2âO bond polarization. These structural features form a critical part of the expected reaction coordinate along the reaction path, and the ability to quantitatively determine them as well as the substate population ratios in the Michaelis complex provides a unique opportunity to probe the structure-activity relationship in LDH catalysis. The various substates have a strong variance in their propensity toward on enzyme chemistry. Our results suggest a physical mechanism for understanding the LDH-catalyzed chemistry in which the bulk of the rate enhancement can be viewed as arising from a stochastic search through an available phase space that, in the enzyme system, involves a restricted ensemble of more reactive conformational substates as compared to the same chemistry in solution.

Somatic cell reprogramming generates induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which serve as a crucial source of seed cells for personalized disease modeling and treatment in regenerative medicine. However, the process of reprogramming often causes substantial lineage manipulations, thereby increasing cellular heterogeneity. As a consequence, the process of harvesting monoclonal iPSCs is labor-intensive and leads to decreased reproducibility. Here, we report the first in-house developed robotic platform that uses a pin-tip-based micro-structure to manipulate radial shear flow for automated monoclonal iPSC colony selection (~1 s) in a non-invasive and label-free manner, which includes tasks for somatic cell reprogramming culturing, medium changes; time-lapse-based high-content imaging; and iPSCs monoclonal colony detection, selection, and expansion. Throughput-wise, this automated robotic system can perform approximately 24 somatic cell reprogramming tasks within 50 days in parallel via a scheduling program. Moreover, thanks to a dual flow-based iPSC selection process, the purity of iPSCs was enhanced, while simultaneously eliminating the need for single-cell subcloning. These iPSCs generated via the dual processing robotic approach demonstrated a purity 3.7 times greater than that of the conventional manual methods. In addition, the automatically produced human iPSCs exhibited typical pluripotent transcriptional profiles, differentiation potential, and karyotypes. In conclusion, this robotic method could offer a promising solution for the automated isolation or purification of lineage-specific cells derived from iPSCs, thereby accelerating the development of personalized medicines.
RESUMO
The photochemistry of 2-naphthylsulfonyl azide (2-NpSO(2)N(3)) was studied by femtosecond time-resolved infrared (TR-IR) spectroscopy and with quantum chemical calculations. Photolysis of 2-NpSO(2)N(3) with 330 nm light promotes 2-NpSO(2)N(3) to its S(1) state. The S(1) excited state has a prominent azide vibrational band. This is the first direct observation of the S(1) state of a sulfonyl azide, and this vibrational feature allows a mechanistic study of its decay processes. The S(1) state decays to produce the singlet nitrene. Evidence for the formation of the pseudo-Curtius rearrangement product (2-NpNSO(2)) was inconclusive. The singlet sulfonylnitrene (1)(2-NpSO(2)N) is a short-lived species (τ ≈ 700 ± 300 ps in CCl(4)) that decays to the lower-energy and longer-lived triplet nitrene (3)(2-NpSO(2)N). Internal conversion of the S(1) excited state to the ground state S(0) is an efficient deactivation process. Intersystem crossing of the S(1) excited state to the azide triplet state contributes only modestly to deactivation of the S(1) state of 2-NpSO(2)N(3).

The photochemistry of 2-naphthoyl azide was studied in various solvents by femtosecond time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy with IR and UV-vis detection. The experimental findings were interpreted with the aid of computational studies. Using polar and nonpolar solvents, the formation and decay of the first singlet excited state (S(1)) was observed by both time-resolved techniques. Three processes are involved in the decay of the S(1) excited state of 2-naphthoyl azide: intersystem crossing, singlet nitrene formation, and isocyanate formation. The lifetime of the S(1) state decreases significantly as the solvent polarity increases. In all solvents studied, isocyanate formation correlates with the decay of the azide S(1) state. Nitrene formation correlates with the decay of the relaxed S(1) state only upon 350 nm excitation (S(0) â S(1) excitation). When S(n) (n ≥ 2) states are populated upon excitation (λ(ex) = 270 nm), most nitrene formation takes place within a few picoseconds through the hot S(1) and higher singlet excited states (S(n)) of 2-naphthoyl azide. The data correlate with the results of electron density difference calculations that predict nitrene formation from the higher-energy singlet excited states, in addition to the S(1) state. For all of these experiments, no recovery of the ground state was observed up to 3 ns after photolysis, which indicates that both internal conversion and fluorescence have very low efficiencies.
RESUMO
The photochemistry of three carbonyl azides was studied by ultrafast time-resolved IR spectroscopy. Benzoyl, 2-naphthoyl, and pivavoyl azides are promoted to upper excited states S(n) with 270 nm excitation in chloroform. The S(n) states decay in 300 fs to form both the carbonylnitrenes and the S(1) excited states. The decay of the S(1) states of the carbonyl azides correlates with the growth of isocyanates. Formation of carbonylnitrene from S(1) is at most a minor process if it happens at all. The quantum yields of azide decomposition of these azides with 270 nm light are close to unity in chloroform.
RESUMO
Aryl diphosphenes (Ar-P=P-Ar) possess features that may make them useful in photonic devices, including the possibility for photochemical E-Z isomerization. Development of good models guided by computations is hampered by poor correspondence between predicted and experimental UV/vis absorption spectra. A hypothesis that the phenyl twist angle (i.e., PPCC torsion) accounts for this discrepancy is explored, with positive findings. DFT and TDDFT (B3LYP) were applied to the phenyl-P=P-phenyl (Ph-P=P-Ph) model compound over a range of phenyl twist angles, and to the Ph-P=P-Ph cores of two crystallographically characterized diphosphenes: bis-(2,4,6-tBu(3)C(6)H(2))-diphosphene (Mes*-P=P-Mes*) and bis-(2,6-Mes(2)C(6)H(3))-diphosphene (Dmp-P=P-Dmp). A shallow PES is observed for the model diphosphene: the full range of phenyl twist angles is accessible for under 5 kcal/mol. The Kohn-Sham orbitals (KS-MOs) exhibit stabilization and mixing of the two highest energy frontier orbitals: the n(+) and pi localized primarily on the -P=P- unit. A simple, single-configuration model based upon this symmetry-breaking is shown to be consistent with the major features of the measured UV/vis spectra of several diphosphenes. Detailed evaluation of singlet excitations, transition energies and oscillator strengths with TDDFT showed that the lowest energy transition (S(1) <-- S(0)) does not always correspond to the LUMO <-- HOMO configuration. Coupling between the phenyl rings and central -P=P- destabilizes the pi-pi* dominated state. Hence, the S(1) is always n(+)-pi* in nature, even with a pi-type HOMO. This coupling of the ring and -P=P- pi systems engenders complexity in the UV/vis absorption region, and may be the origin of the variety of photobehaviors observed in diphosphenes.

In droplet-based microfluidics, visualizing and modulating of droplets is often prerequisite. In this paper, we report a facile strategy for visualizing and modulating high-throughput droplets in microfluidics. In the strategy, by modulating the sampling frequency of a flash light with the droplet frequency, we are able to map a real high frequency signal to a low frequency signal, which facilitates visualizing and feedback controlling. Meanwhile, because of not needing synchronization signals, the strategy can be directly implemented on any droplet-based microfluidic chips. The only cost of the strategy is an additional signal generator. Moreover, the strategy can catch droplets with frequency up to several kilohertz, which covers the range of most high-throughput droplet-based microfluidics. In this paper, the principle, setup and procedure were introduced. Finally, as a demonstration, the strategy was also implemented in a miniaturized picoinjector in order to monitor and control the injection dosage to droplets. We expect that this facile strategy supplies a low-cost yet effective imaging system that can be easily implemented in miniaturized microfluidic systems or general laboratories.
RESUMO
Microtubules (MTs) are of importance to fiber development. The Xklp2 (TPX2) proteins as a class of microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) play a key role in plant growth and development by regulating the dynamic changes of microtubules (MTs). However, the mechanism underlying this is unknown. The interactions between TPX2 proteins and tubulin protein, which are the main structural components, have not been studied in fiber development of upland cotton. Therefore, a genome-wide analysis of the TPX2 family was firstly performed in Gossypiumhirsutum L. This study identified 41 GhTPX2 sequences in the assembled G. hirsutum genome by a series of bioinformatic methods. Generally, this gene family is phylogenetically grouped into six subfamilies, and 41 G. hirsutum TPX2 genes (GhTPX2s) are distributed across 21 chromosomes. A heatmap of the TPX2 gene family showed that homologous GhTPX2 genes, GhWDLA2/7 and GhWDLA4/9, have large differences in expression levels between two upland cotton recombinant inbred lines (69307 and 69362) that are different in fiber quality at 15 and 20 days post anthesis. The relative data indicate that these four genes are down-regulated under oryzalin, which causes microtubule depolymerization, as determined via qRT-PCR. A subcellular localization experiment suggested that GhWDLA2 and GhWDLA7 are localized to the microtubule cytoskeleton, and GhWDLA4 and GhWDLA9 are only localized to the nucleus. However, only GhWDLA7 between GhWDLA2 and GhWDLA7 interacted with GhTUA2 in the yeast two-hybrid assay. These results lay the foundation for further function study of the TPX2 gene family.

Aryloxenium ions 1 are reactive intermediates that are isoelectronic with the better known arylcarbenium and arylnitrenium ions. They are proposed to be involved in synthetically and industrially useful oxidation reactions of phenols. However, mechanistic studies of these intermediates are limited. Until recently, the lifetimes of these intermediates in solution and their reactivity patterns were unknown. Previously, the quinol esters 2 have been used to generate 1, which were indirectly detected by azide ion trapping to generate azide adducts 4 at the expense of quinols 3, during hydrolysis reactions in the dark. Laser flash photolysis (LFP) of 2b in the presence of O(2) in aqueous solution leads to two reactive intermediates with lambda(max) 360 and 460 nm, respectively, while in pure CH(3)CN only one species with lambda(max) 350 nm is produced. The intermediate with lambda(max) 460 nm was previously identified as 1b based on direct observation of its decomposition kinetics in the presence of N(3)(-), comparison to azide ion trapping results from the hydrolysis reactions, and photolysis reaction products (3b). The agreement between the calculated (B3LYP/6-31G(d)) and observed time-resolved resonance Raman (TR(3)) spectra of 1b further confirms its identity. The second intermediate with lambda(max) 360 nm (350 nm in CH(3)CN) has been characterized as the radical 5b, based on its photolytic generation in the less polar CH(3)CN and on isolated photolysis reaction products (6b and 7b). Only the radical intermediate 5b is generated by photolysis in CH(3)CN, so its UV-vis spectrum, reaction products, and decay kinetics can be investigated in this solvent without interference from 1b. In addition, the radical 5a was generated by LFP of 2a and was identified by comparison to a published UV-vis spectrum of authentic 5a obtained under similar conditions. The similarity of the UV-vis spectra of 5a and 5b, their reaction products, and the kinetics of their decay confirm the assigned structures. The lifetime of 1b in aqueous solution at room temperature is 170 ns. This intermediate decays with first-order kinetics. The radical intermediate 5b decomposes in a biphasic manner, with lifetimes of 12 and 75 mus. The decay processes of 5a and 5b were successfully modeled with a kinetic scheme that included reversible formation of a dimer. The scheme is similar to the kinetic models applied to describe the decay of other aryloxy radicals.
RESUMO
Oxamate and pyruvate are isoelectronic molecules. They both quench tryptophan fluorescence with Stern-Volmer constants of 16 and 20 M-1, respectively, which are comparable to that of arcrylamide, a commonly used probe for protein structure. On the other hand, it is well known that neither the carboxylate group of these molecules nor the amide group is a good quencher. To find the mechanism of the quenching by oxamate and pyruvate, density functional theory computations with a polarizable continuum model, solvation based on density, and explicit waters, were performed. Results indicate that both molecules can be an electron acceptor via photoinduced electron transfer. There are two requirements. First, the carboxylate and amide moieties must be in direct contact to bring about noticeable quenching. The conjugation between the amide (or the keto) group and the carboxylate group leads to a lower π* orbital, which is the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), and can then accept an electron from the excited tryptophan. Second, since oxamate and pyruvate ions have high electron density, hydrogen bonds with waters, which can be simulated by an explicit water model, are essential. Their LUMO energies are strongly influenced by water in aqueous solution. The above findings demonstrate how tryptophan fluorescence gets quenched in aqueous solution. The findings may be important in dealing with those problems where frontier orbitals are considered, especially with molecules having high electron density.

Fluorescence of Reduced Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NADH) is extensively employed in studies of oxidoreductases. A substantial amount of static and kinetic work has focused on the binding of pyruvate or substrate mimic oxamate to the binary complex of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)-NADH where substantial fluorescence quenching is typically observed. However, the quenching mechanism is not well understood limiting structural interpretation. Based on time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) computations with cam-B3LYP functional in conjunction with the analysis of previous experimental results, we propose that bound oxamate acts as an electron acceptor in the quenching of fluorescence of NADH in the ternary complex, where a charge transfer (CT) state characterized by excitation from the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of the nicotinamide moiety of NADH to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of oxamate exists close to the locally excited (LE) state involving only the nicotinamide moiety. Efficient quenching in the encounter complex like in pig heart LDH requires that oxamate forms a salt bridge with Arg-171 and hydrogen bonds with His-195, Thr-246 and Asn-140. Further structural rearrangement and loop closure, which also brings about another hydrogen bond between oxamate and Arg-109, will increase the rate of fluorescence quenching as well.

The mechanism of thermal adaptation of enzyme function at the molecular level is poorly understood but is thought to lie within the structure of the protein or its dynamics. Our previous work on pig heart lactate dehydrogenase (phLDH) has determined very high resolution structures of the active site, via isotope edited IR studies, and has characterized its dynamical nature, via laser-induced temperature jump (T-jump) relaxation spectroscopy on the Michaelis complex. These particular probes are quite powerful at getting at the interplay between structure and dynamics in adaptation. Hence, we extend these studies to the psychrophilic protein cgLDH (Champsocephalus gunnari; 0 °C) and the extreme thermophile tmLDH (Thermotoga maritima LDH; 80 °C) for comparison to the mesophile phLDH (38-39 °C). Instead of the native substrate pyruvate, we utilize oxamate as a nonreactive substrate mimic for experimental reasons. Using isotope edited IR spectroscopy, we find small differences in the substate composition that arise from the detailed bonding patterns of oxamate within the active site of the three proteins; however, we find these differences insufficient to explain the mechanism of thermal adaptation. On the other hand, T-jump studies of reduced ß-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) emission reveal that the most important parameter affecting thermal adaptation appears to be enzyme control of the specific kinetics and dynamics of protein motions that lie along the catalytic pathway. The relaxation rate of the motions scale as cgLDH > phLDH > tmLDH in a way that faithfully matches kcat of the three isozymes.

Protein conformational heterogeneity and dynamics are known to play an important role in enzyme catalysis, but their influence has been difficult to observe directly. We have studied the effects of heterogeneity in the catalytic reaction of pig heart lactate dehydrogenase using isotope edited infrared spectroscopy, laser-induced temperature jump relaxation, and kinetic modeling. The isotope edited infrared spectrum reveals the presence of multiple reactive conformations of pyruvate bound to the enzyme, with three major reactive populations having substrate C2 carbonyl stretches at 1686, 1679, and 1674 cm(-1), respectively. The temperature jump relaxation measurements and kinetic modeling indicate that these substates form a heterogeneous branched reaction pathway, and each substate catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to lactate with a different rate. Furthermore, the rate of hydride transfer is inversely correlated with the frequency of the C2 carbonyl stretch (the rate increases as the frequency decreases), consistent with the relationship between the frequency of this mode and the polarization of the bond, which determines its reactivity toward hydride transfer. The enzyme does not appear to be optimized to use the fastest pathway preferentially but rather accesses multiple pathways in a search process that often selects slower ones. These results provide further support for a dynamic view of enzyme catalysis where the role of the enzyme is not just to bring reactants together but also to guide the conformational search for chemically competent interactions.

The details of the photophysics of a diphosphene DmpP=PDmp (Dmp: 2,6-Mes(2)C(6)H(3)) have been examined experimentally and computationally. Femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy has been used to probe the dynamics of the S(1) and S(2) excited states of DmpP=PDmp, through excitation at 480 and 400 nm, respectively. The molecule returns to S(0) on sub-nanosecond timescales; no irreversible photochemistry is observed. The S(2) state is observed in the transient spectra with an absorption feature at the red end of the visible spectrum. Its lifetime was measured to be 275 fs. The S(1) state does not absorb appreciably in the probe wavelength range. Excitation into either of these states leads to transient absorption signals in the 400-600 nm region that exhibit a rise time longer than the measured instrument response function, indicating that they do not arise from the initially excited state. These bands decay biexponentially, with lifetimes of ~20 ps and of a few hundred ps. Calculations at the CASSCF(8,6)/6-31G** and CASPT2(8,6)/6-31G**//CASSCF(8,6)/6-31G** levels support these assignments, and underpin an initial working model that involves participation of phenyl torsional twisting motions and the possibility of rapid intersystem crossing to the low-lying triplet manifold.
RESUMO
2-(4-Aminophenyl)benzothiazoles related to 1 are potentially important pharmaceuticals. Metabolism apparently involves oxidation and esterification to 3. In water, hydrolysis and photolysis of 3 generates the nitrenium ion 4 that can be detected indirectly by N(3)(-) trapping and directly by UV-vis spectroscopy following laser flash photolysis. The transient, with lambda(max) 570 nm, and a lifetime of 530 ns, reacts with N(3)(-) at a diffusion-controlled rate and generates the quinol 6 by reaction with water.

A series of phosphaalkenes, E-ArP=C(H)Ar' (Ar = 2,6-Mes2C6H3, Ar' = Ph (1a); Ar = 2,6-Mes2C6H3, Ar' = p-C6H4Br (2a); Ar = 4-Br-2,6-Mes2C6H2, Ar' = Ph (3a); Ar = 4-Br-2,6-Mes2C6H2, Ar' = p-C6H4Br (4a)) have been prepared by phospha-Wittig reactions and characterized. Exposure of these materials either to room light over an extended period of time (days) or to UV light (hours) produced equilibrium mixtures of the E and Z isomers (1b-4b) as indicated by 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy. The structures of compounds 4a and 4b were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Variable-temperature (1)H NMR studies of 4b indicate hindered rotation about the P-CAr bond, with DeltaH(double dagger) = 13.8 kcal/mol and DeltaS(double dagger) = 1.3 eu. The electronic structures of E- and Z-PhP=C(H)Ph have been examined using density functional theory.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of the treatment of periapical diseases with recombinant human netic protein (rhBMP-2) composite in dog models so as to provide basis for its clinical application. METHODS: The endotoxin-bacteria mixed fluid was injected into each root canal of the experimental teeth of dogs and the animal periapical were built. The rhBMP-2 composite was mixed by rhBMP-2, TCP, collagen and metronidazole and used in the treatment cal diseases in dog models as root apex screen. The imageology and pathology research were went on. RESULTS: The effective rate of the experimental group was remarkably higher than that of the carrier group and the control group with remarkable ference (P < 0.05). The quality of the repair of tissue was obviously better than the two other groups. CONCLUSION: The rhBMP-2 composite is a promising biological root-canal filling material.
