RESUMEN
This article reports on the luminescence properties of rare earth (Dy3+ and Tm3+ )ions doped SrGa2 Si2 O8 phosphor were studied. SrGa2 Si2 O8 phosphors weresynthesizedby employing solid state reaction method.From the measured X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the samplemonoclinic phase structure has been observed. Thermoluminescenceand Mechanoluminescence properties of the γ-ray irradiated samples have been studied. Photoluminescence spectra of Dy3+ activated SrGa2 Si2 O8 phosphor has been measured with an excitation wavelength at 348 nm,and it shows two emission bands at 483 and 574 nm due to 4 F9/2 â 6 H15/2 and 4 F9/2 â 6 H13/2 transitions respectively. Whereas the photoluminescence spectra of Tm3+ activated SrGa2 Si2 O8 phosphor has been measured with an excitation wavelength at 359 nm and it exhibits two emission bands at 454 and 472 nm due to 1 D2 â 3 F4 and1 G4 â 3 H6 transitions respectively. In thermoluminescence study, γ-irradiatedthermoluminescence glow curve of SrGa2 Si2 O8 :Dy3+ phosphor shows two well defined peaks at 293 °C (peak1)and 170 °C (peak2) whereas thermoluminescence glow curve of SrGa2 Si2 O8 :Tm3+ phosphor shows peaks at 292 °C (peak1) and 184 °C (peak2) indicating that two sets of traps are being activated within the particular temperature range and the trapping parameters associated with the prominent glow peaks of SrGa2 Si2 O8 :Dy3+ and SrGa2 Si2 O8 :Tm3+ are calculated using Chen's peak shape and initial rise method.From the Mechanoluminescence study, only one glow peak has been observed.

In this work we synthesized SrO-ZnO-P2 O5 glasses mixed with Pb3 O4 (heavy metal oxide) and doped with different amounts of Dy2 O3 (0.1 to 1.0 mol%). Subsequently their emission and decay characteristics were investigated as a function of Dy2 O3 concentration. The emission spectra exhibited three principal emission bands in the visible region corresponding to 4 F9/2 â 6 H15/2 (482 nm), 6 H13/2 (574 nm) and 6 H11/2 (663 nm) transitions. With increase in the concentration of Dy2 O3 (upto 0.8 mol%) a considerable increase in the intensity of these bands was observed and, for further increase, quenching of photoluminescence (PL) output was observed. Using emission spectra, various radiative parameters were evaluated and all these parameters were found to increase with increase in Dy2 O3 concentration. The Y/B integral emission intensity ratio of Dy3+ ions evaluated from these spectra exhibited a decreasing trend with increase in the Dy2 O3 concentration up to 0.8 mol%. Quenching of luminescence observed in the case of the glasses doped with 1.0 mol% is attributed to clustering of Dy3+ ions. The quantitative analysis of these results together with infra-red (IR) spectral studies indicated that 0.8 mol% is the optimum concentration of Dy3+ ions needed to achieve maximum luminescence efficiency.

With an aim to develop a highly efficient method for the recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) by using microorganisms, we attempted to isolate dysprosium (Dy)-accumulating microorganisms that grow under acidic conditions from environmental samples containing high concentrations of heavy metals. One acidophilic strain, T9, which was isolated from an abandoned mine, decreased the concentration of Dy in medium that contained 100 mg/liter Dy to 53 mg/liter Dy after 3 days of cultivation at pH 2.5. The Dy content in the cell pellet of the T9 strain was 910 µg/mg of dry cells. The T9 strain also accumulated other REEs. Based on the results of 28S-D1/D2 rRNA gene sequencing and morphological characterization, we designated this fungal strain Penidiella sp. T9. Bioaccumulation of Dy was observed on the cell surface of the T9 strain by elemental mapping using scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Our results indicate that Penidiella sp. T9 has the potential to recover REEs such as Dy from mine drainage and industrial liquid waste under acidic conditions.

A series of single-phase full-color emitting Li2 Sr1-x-y SiO4 :xDy(3+) ,yEu(3+) phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reaction and characterized by X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence analyses. The samples showed emission peaks at 488 nm (blue), 572 nm (yellow), 592 nm (orange) and 617 nm (red) under 393 nm excitation. The photoluminescence excitation spectra, comprising the Eu-O charge transfer band and 4f-4f transition bands of Dy(3+) and Eu(3+) , range from 200 to 500 nm. The Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage chromaticity coordinates for Li2 Sr0.98-x SiO4 :0.02Dy(3+) ,xEu(3+) phosphors were simulated. By manipulating Eu(3+) and Dy(3+) concentrations, the color points of Li2 Sr1-x-y SiO4 :xDy(3+) ,yEu(3+) were tuned from the greenish-white region to white light and eventually to reddish-white region, demonstrating that a tunable white light can be obtained by Li2 Sr1-x-y SiO4 :xDy(3+) ,yEu(3+) phosphors. Li2 Sr0.98-x SiO4 :0.02Dy(3+) , xEu(3+) can serve as a white-light-emitting phosphor for phosphor-converted light-emitting diode.

The intensity of emitted light from CdSe quantum dots (QDs)-H2O2 is described as a novel chemiluminescence (CL) reaction for determination of dysprosium. This reaction is based on the catalytic effect of Dy(3+) ions, causing a significant increase in the light emission, as a result of the reaction of quantum dots (QDs) with hydrogen peroxide. In the optimum conditions, this method was satisfactorily described by linear calibration curve in the range of 8.3×10(-7)-5.0×10(-6)M, the detection limit of 6.0×10(-8)M, and the relative standard deviation for five determinations of 2.5×10(-6)M Dy(3+) 3.2%. The main experimental advantage of the proposed method is its selective to Dy(3+) ions compared with common coexisting cations, therefore, it was successfully applied for the determination of dysprosium ions in water samples.

A novel Dy(III) ion-selective PVC membrane sensor was made using a new synthesized organic compound, 3,4-diamino-N'-((pyridin-2-yl)methylene)benzohydrazide (L) as an excellent sensing element. The electrode showed a Nernstian slope of 19.8 ± 0.6 mV per decade in a wide concentration range of 1.0 × 10(-6)-1.0 × 10(-2) mol L(-1), a detection limit of 5.5 × 10(-7) mol L(-1), a short conditioning time, a fast response time (<10s), and high selectivity towards Dy(III) ion in contrast to other cations. The proposed sensor was successfully used as an indicator electrode in the potentiometric titration of Dy(III) ions with EDTA. The membrane sensor was also applied to the F(-) ion indirect determination of some mouth washing solutions and to the Dy(3+) determination in binary mixtures.

The secretion of endogenous zinc (Zn) into the gut and subsequent excretion in the feces is understood to play a major role in maintaining Zn homeostasis in humans. Therefore, the measurement of endogenous Zn losses in the feces (EFZ) can be an important aspect of the study of Zn metabolism and homeostasis. The methods currently used to measure EFZ have the disadvantage of requiring complete fecal collections over multiple days. We have investigated the use of dysprosium (Dy), a nonabsorbable rare earth metal, in a method of determining EFZ that does not require complete fecal collections and permits the measurement of EFZ from several fecal samples. The method was evaluated using data from a study of free-living adult females in which Dy was administered 3-4 times/d over a period of 5 or 6 d to monitor completeness of fecal collections. The results did not differ from those obtained using an established isotope dilution method. We found that the measurement of the sample Dy:Zn ratio was useful for selecting samples for measurement. We conclude that the Dy method of determining EFZ is a valid and less burdensome alternative to current techniques.

A method for the speciation of chromium(III), chromium(VI) and determination of total chromium based on coprecipitation of chromium(III) with dysprosium hydroxide has been investigated and applied to tap water samples. Chromium(III) was quantitatively recovered by the presented method, while the recovery values for chromium(VI) was below 10%. The influences of analytical parameters including amount of dysprosium(III), pH, centrifugation speed and sample volume for the quantitative precipitation were examined. No interferic effects were observed from alkali, earth alkali and some transition metals for the analyte ions. The detection limits (k=3, N=15) were 0.65 microg/L for chromium(III) and 0.78 microg/L for chromium(VI). The validation of the presented method was checked by the analysis of certified reference materials.

Three different derivatives of macrocyclic tetraimine Schiff's base have been synthesized and explored as a neutral ionophores for preparing poly(vinyl chloride) based membrane sensors selective to Dy(3+). The addition of sodium tetraphenyl borate and various plasticizers, viz., o-NPOE, DBP, DBBP, DOP and CN has been found to substantially improve the performance of the sensors. The best performance was obtained with the sensor no. 1 having membrane of Schiff's base (SL-1) with composition (w/w) SL-1 (4.5%): PVC (30.5%): o-NPOE (59.5%): NaTPB (5.5%). This sensor exhibits Nernstian response with slope 19.4 mV/decade of activity in the concentration range of 10(-8) to 1.0x10(-2)M Dy(3+), performs satisfactorily over wide pH range of (2.8-7.2) with a fast response time (10s). The sensor was also found to work satisfactorily in partially non-aqueous media up to 20% (v/v) content of acetonitrile, methanol or ethanol. The proposed sensor can be used over a period of 1.5 months without significant drift in potentials. The sensor has been also utilized for the determination of Dy(3+) level in different soil samples.

This paper describes the determination of trace La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Yb and Lu in the sample, using carbon powder, potassium sulfate, barium sulfate, strontium sulfate, and scandium chloride as buffer, by atomic emission spectrometry (AES). Scandium was selected as internal standard line. Sample separation and chemical treatment were not required. The sample was directly loaded into ordinary electrode. The method is simple, rapid and accurate. The determination requirement and influence factors were studied. A new method was developed for the determination of ten rare earth elements, for which the detection limit is smaller than 0.030%, and the range of the recovery is 94%-105%. The results of these elements in standard sample are in agreement with certified values, and the RSD is smaller than 5% (n = 9). The method has been applied to the determination of ten rare earth elements with satisfactory results.

BACKGROUND: Dysprosium is a nonabsorbable rare earth element that has had successful application as a marker for fecal excretion of unabsorbed zinc. OBJECTIVE: Our goals were 1) to evaluate the efficacy of administering dysprosium with all meals over several days as a method of determining the completeness of fecal collections, 2) to determine the similarity of gastrointestinal transit kinetics and excretion patterns of dysprosium and zinc tracer administered simultaneously over several days, and 3) to evaluate alternative methods of using the data for fecal excretion of orally administered zinc tracer and dysprosium to measure the fractional absorption of zinc. DESIGN: 70Zn and dysprosium were administered orally with all meals for 5 consecutive days to 7 healthy, free-living adults consuming a constant diet based on habitual intake. Additional tracers, 67Zn and 68Zn, were administered intravenously. Urine and fecal samples were collected during tracer administration and for 8 d after the last dose. Isotope ratios were measured in urine and feces, and total zinc and dysprosium were measured in fecal samples. RESULTS: The mean recovery of dysprosium was 101.3 +/- 2.4%. The zinc oral tracer and dysprosium had similar fecal excretory patterns; the correlation coefficient for 70Zn and dysprosium in fecal samples exceeded 0.99 (P < 0.0001) for each subject. Fractional zinc absorption measurements using various dysprosium methods correlated well (r > 0.95) with those from the fecal monitoring and dual-isotope-tracer ratio methods. CONCLUSION: Administration of dysprosium is a useful means of determining the completeness of fecal collections and of measuring zinc absorption.

Complementary foods based on cereals may contain high amounts of phytic acid, which binds strongly to minerals and trace elements. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of dephytinization of a cereal-based complementary food on zinc and copper apparent absorption in adults. A dephytinized complementary food (<0.03 mg phytic acid/g) and one containing the native phytic acid concentration (4 mg/g) were labeled extrinsically with stable isotopes ((70)Zn and (65)Cu). Apparent zinc and copper absorption was based on fecal excretion of nonabsorbed labels in 9 adults, using a crossover design. Stable isotopes were quantified by thermal ionization MS. Apparent fractional zinc absorption was significantly higher (P = 0.005; Student's paired t test) from the dephytinized complementary food (34.6 +/- 8.0%; mean +/- SD) than from the complementary food with native phytic acid concentration (22.8 +/- 8.8%). Apparent fractional copper absorption did not differ (P = 0.167; 19.7 +/- 5.1% dephytinized vs. 23.7 +/- 8.1% native phytic acid). These results clearly demonstrate the beneficial effect of dephytinization of a complementary food on fractional absorption of zinc but not of copper in adults. The long-term nutritional benefits of dephytinization of complementary foods should be evaluated in young children.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this work was to determine if dysprosium chloride (DyCl(3)) is a suitable nonabsorbable marker for studies of labeled-triglyceride excretion in cystic fibrosis patients allowing excretion to be determined accurately after analysis of one or two stools. METHODS: A series of 66 absorption studies were conducted in 36 young cystic fibrosis patients over a five year period. All tests consisted of ingesting a single test meal containing both (13)C-labeled triglyceride (TG*) and DyCl(3); in most studies the food colorant brilliant blue (FD&C blue #1) was administered along with the DyCl(3). Ingestion of the test meal was followed by collection of individual stools for 72 to 96 hours. Stools were analyzed for (13)C-Excess ((13)C*) and Dy. RESULTS: Excretion of Dy in cystic fibrosis patients who exhibited a wide-range of steatorrhea was quantitative. Fractional excretion of Dy and (13)C* in individual stools showed a high linear correlation (r(2) = 0.969) with a slope and y-intercept close to unity and zero, respectively. As a result, estimates of TG* excretion based on analysis of only two stools (partial pool method, PPM) were not different from those based on the analysis of all stools or stool composites. This was true both when Dy content and when stool color due to ingested brilliant blue was used to determine which stools to analyze for the PPM. CONCLUSIONS: Combining the use of Dy and brilliant blue permits reasonably accurate estimates of fecal TG* excretion after analysis of samples from two easily identified stools. This practical method can be used to address many important clinical and experimental questions regarding triglyceride digestion and absorption that may otherwise go unanswered.

Since vascular architecture differs among tissues, it was hypothesized that the change in transverse relaxation rate produced by a given tissue concentration of susceptibility contrast agent also varies by tissue. This is relevant to strategies to map regional blood volume by MRI using indicator dilution techniques. R*(2) was measured in rat organs over a range of susceptibility agent concentrations at 1.5 T. Rat red blood cells loaded with dysprosium-DTPA-BMA served as an intravascular susceptibility agent. Tissue samples were frozen in vivo and dysprosium concentrations were independently measured using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. The slope (k) of R*(2) vs. tissue dysprosium concentration in sec(-1) mM(-1) for myocardium was 97.1 (95% C.I. 77. 0-117.2), liver 122.6 (108.3-136.9), spleen 22.5 (8.8-36.3), kidney 68.1 (58.6-77.6), and skeletal muscle 77.9 (4.1-151.6); k was significantly different (P < 0.05) for all pairings except those with skeletal muscle. Therefore, relative values of tissue blood volume derived from dynamic images of first pass contrast effects may be in error because k is not constant for different conditions.

Endogenous recoveries and true ileal digestibilities of amino acids were determined in pigs fed cornstarch-based diets with untreated or protease-treated soybean meal as protein sources. Twelve pigs, fitted with a modified post valve T-cecum cannula on d 14, 15, and 16 after birth, were weaned on d 20 and assigned to one of four diets according to a two-period balanced change-over design. Diets consisted of soybean meal 1) untreated (SBM), 2) incubated (1:2 wt/vol in distilled water adjusted to pH 4.5, for 16 h at 50 degrees C; CI-SBM), 3) sprayed with protease (1 microL/g of soybean meal; PS-SBM), and 4) incubated, as for CI-SBM, with protease in the water (PI-SBM) at the same application rate as that for PS-SBM. Each period consisted of 5 d of adaptation to diets followed by collection of ileal digesta on d 6 and 7 to determine the apparent ileal amino acid digestibilities of the diets. On d 9, guanidinated meals were fed, followed by a 24-h continuous collection of digesta. Recoveries of chromic oxide and dysprosium from the guanidinated meals were 96.0 +/- .5 and 94.5 +/- 1.1%, respectively. Endogenous amino acid recoveries were similar (P > .05) for SBM, CI-SBM, and PS-SBM but less (P < .05) for PI-SBM. True digestibilities were also less (P < .05) for PI-SBM than for the other meals. Recoveries of endogenous branched-chain and aromatic amino acids were less (P < .05) during Period 2 than during Period 1, suggesting dietary change- and(or) age-dependent adaptive increases in the secretions of pepsin and pancreatic proteases. In conclusion, protease treatment did not improve the true digestibilities of amino acids in soybean meal fed to newly weaned pigs.

The use of rare earth elements as nonabsorbable fecal markers for studies of iron absorption from sources labeled extrinsically with stable isotopes was evaluated. On 3 successive days 13 healthy fasting adults were given different stable isotopes of iron with samarium, ytterbium, or dysprosium. On day 1, three meals were given with 57Fe (1 mg per meal) plus samarium (0.33 mg per meal); on day 2, identical meals (taken with a calcium supplement to reduce iron bioavailability) were given with equivalent amounts of 58Fe-labeled iron and ytterbium; on day 3, a well-absorbed reference dose of 54Fe (3 mg) was given with 1 mg Dy. A complete fecal collection was carried out for 5-9 d and each stool was analyzed for rare earth elements by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry and iron isotopes by thermal ionization quadrupole mass spectrometry. Mean recovery of rare earth elements was 101%, indicating that they are totally unabsorbed. The excretory pattern of the iron isotopes and the rare earth elements was very similar; the correlation coefficients between samarium and 57Fe, ytterbium and 58Fe, and dysprosium and 54Fe were 0.992, 0.989, and 0.988, respectively (P < 0.001). Iron absorption was calculated as the difference between isotope dose and fecal excretion. Mean (+/-SEM) iron absorption was 16.7 +/- 2.4%, 4.3 +/- 1.6%, and 40.3 +/- 3.1% on days 1-3, respectively. Predicted values estimated from the first 4 d of pooled feces, using the rare earth element recovery data to produce corrected figures for unabsorbed isotope, were in close agreement: 19.1 +/- 2.1%, 4.6 +/- 1.7%, and 40.8 +/- 3.1%, respectively (P < 0.001). With the diet of medium iron bioavailability and with the highly bioavailable reference dose it was possible to predict iron absorption accurately from only one or two stools, provided that they were sufficiently enriched with isotope and a rare earth element.

The objective of this work was to determine whether the Dy content of ruminal digesta samples labeled by pulse-dosing intra-ruminally with Dy-labeled forages could be determined by near infrared reflectance spectroscopy. Ruminal grab samples were obtained from four steers. Equal numbers of alfalfa and orchardgrass samples were collected at 17 times (0 to 165 h) after dosing and analyzed (total of 272 samples). Dysprosium was determined by direct current plasma emission spectrometry. Spectra were obtained by scanning ground samples on a scanning monochromator. Calibrations for Dy (0 to 349.5 ppm; mean = 44.5 ppm) were carried out using both stepwise and partial least square regressions. Wavelength selections using stepwise regression included characteristic Dy wavelengths and resulted in R2 and standard error of analysis of approximately .9 and > or = 20 ppm, respectively. Partial least squares regressions, although more robust, were not significantly better. Sample ashing to increase relative Dy concentrations did not improve the results. Further investigations indicated that interference by Co marker, also present in the samples, was a problem. Although near infrared reflectance spectroscopy is capable of determining Dy in labeled forages, further work is needed to increase its accuracy.

A group of compounds composed of pyridine, 2,2'-bipyridine and 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine as the energy absorbing, triplet sensitizing moieties and two or four carboxylic acids as the chelating groups were synthesized and their ability to enhance terbium ion luminescence was elucidated. The dicarboxylic acid derivatives form highly luminescent Tb3+ chelates with luminescence quantum yields approaching 50%. Additional groups, such as methoxy groups or additional pyridine rings in the aromatic structure can be utilized to shift the excitation maxima towards longer wavelengths in order to produce more practicable excitation for practical use. The ligands giving the highest Tb3+ emissions were further evaluated in a two-step fluorescence enhancement system constructed for specific binding assays based on the simultaneous use of three or four ions as the labels (Eu3+, Tb3+, Sm3+ and Dy3+). In the two-step procedure, the first step comprises dissociative fluorescence enhancement based on an acidic solution of an aromatic beta-diketone used as the luminogenic ligand, whereafter Eu3+ and Sm3+ are quantitated. In the second step, the lanthanide ions form new chelates with the added ligands. These ligands are able to transfer the excitation energy they have absorbed with high efficiency to the chelated ions and produce high ion luminescence for Tb3+ and Dy3+.
