Tingenone and also 22-hydroxytingenone targeted oxidative anxiety by means of downregulation of thioredoxin, bringing about Genetic make-up double-strand crack and also JNK/p38-mediated apoptosis inside severe myeloid the leukemia disease HL-60 cellular material.
In this study, a novel functional nanocomposite was synthesized, characterized and selectively used in pH-controlled separation, pre-concentration and speciation analysis of Cu(I) and Cu(II) from sample matrices where extraction is assisted, facilitated and greatly enhanced by ultrasound energy. The hydrophilic composite material functionalized with tris(2-hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) and Fe3O4 NPs was characterized in detail by ATR-FT-IR, 1H NMR, XRD, EDX peaks and SEM images. After optimization of the main variables influencing extraction efficiency such as pH, volumes of buffer, modified copolymer in acetone, CTAB and Triton X-114 at fixed concentrations including sonication conditions, the Cu(I) and Cu(II) were monitored against a blank at 347 nm by micro-volume UV-vis spectrophotometer. A good linearity was obtained in the range of 2-140 and 5-150 μg L-1 for Cu(II) and Cu(I) with r2 ≥ 0.993. The limits of detection (LODs) of 0.66 and 1.60 μg L-1 for each analyte, were obtained from a pre-concentration of 70-fold. After validation, the method was applied to speciation of Cu(I), Cu(II), and total Cu in the pre-treated and diluted beverage samples before and after pre-oxidation of Cu(I) to Cu(II) due to be more sensitive of extraction process to Cu(II) at pH 6.0. The results were also compared with those obtained by FAAS analysis to ensure the reliability of the results. It was observed that there was a statistically good agreement between the results of both methods.Urinary sarcosine was considered to be a potential biomarker for prostate cancer (Pca). In this work, an integrated strategy of multiplex tags chemical isotope labeling (MTCIL) combined with magnetic dispersive solid phase extraction (MDSPE), was proposed for specific extraction and high-throughput determination of sarcosine by ultra high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). In the past three months, we have developed 8-plex MTCIL reagents with excellent qualitative and quantitative performance. In this work, the multiplexing capacity of MTCIL reagents (MTCIL360/361/362/363/364/365/366/375/376/378/379/381) was increased 1.5-fold from 8-plex to 12-plex. MTCIL359 was prepared and used to label sarcosine standard as internal standard (IS). SCR7 cell line The structural analogue derivative (MTCIL373-sarcosine) of all targeted MTCIL-sarcosine derivatives was synthesized and used as a novel dummy template to prepare dummy magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (DMMIPs). The integration of MTCalysis throughput and large-scale experiments about the potential biomarker research.A highly sensitive and selective label-free electrochemical immunosensor was successfully fabricated for measuring prostate-specific antigen (PSA). A composite of chitosan, graphene, ionic liquid and ferrocene (CS-GR-IL-Fc) was drop casted onto a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) and frozen to create a layer of 3D porous cryogel (CS-GR-IL-Fc cry) which was decorated with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The biocompatibility and porosity of the cryogel increased the surface area available for AuNPs loading via amino groups and the population of anti-PSA, immobilized on the AuNPs via chemisorption, could be increased. The CS-GR-IL-Fc cry displayed excellent conductivity, enhancing electron transfer and amplifying the current signal. Differential pulse voltammetry was employed to determine PSA by measuring the reduction in the Fc oxidation peak current in response to the formation of PSA/anti-PSA immunocomplex. Under the optimized incubation time and electrolyte pH, the developed immunosensor displayed excellent analytical performances, including a wide linear range at concentrations from 1.0 × 10-7 to 1.0 × 10-1 ng mL-1, with a very low limit of detection of 4.8 × 10-8 ng mL-1 and good reproducibility (relative standard deviation of 0.05), and indicated the promising potential of the proposed immunosensor in clinical diagnosis.The metal ion fluorescence probes based on chemical reactions triggered by specific metal ions is characterized by high selectivity. However, they are also subject to inherent limitations, such as easy aggregation under water solution, poor optical stability, and long response time. In order to solve these problems, a simple and effective method was studied. The specific design is as follows. Fluorescence probe RACD is assembled onto a single layer graphene oxide (GO) via π-π interaction and hydrogen bonding to prepare RACD functionlized graphene oxide RACD/GO. The experimental results show that the resulting RACD/GO possesses very well monodispersion, hydrophilicity and photostability, particularly reduce the aggregation degree of RACD owing to π-π effect. Simultaneously, it was found that due to the strong synergy between GO and RACD, the response time, selectivity, anti-interference ability, detection sensitivity, detection limit and bioimaging ability of RACD/GO were significantly improved compared with RACD. The resulting RACD/GO not only possesses very well photostability, multiple repeated cycles, but also have been triumphantly put into the monitoring Cu2+ of environmental water, sewage, cells and zebrafish specimens in practice. The detection limit is as low as 1.76 nM, and the correlation coefficient is 0.9998.In this paper, utilizing the same recognition group dinitrophenyl and hydroxyl functional NIR fluorophore hemicyanine, directly-linked probe CyNO2 and self-immolative probe CyBNO2 were developed for evaluation of sensing PhSH. Though CyNO2 was easily synthesized and sensitive to mercapto, the probe CyBNO2 showed higher selectivity, broader linear range from 1.0 × 10-7 to 7.0 × 10-6 M with lower detection limit of 22 nM for PhSH. Moreover, CyBNO2 was successfully applied for monitoring PhSH in living cells and in vivo, indicating the great potential of self-immolative probes.Fluorine and chlorine are key elements to affecting water quality, but they are hard to be determined by conventional laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). To achieve high sensitivity detection of them, the CaF and CaCl molecules were synthesized by combining calcium in calcite and F and Cl in sample. The temporal characteristics of CaF and CaCl molecular emissions were investigated. It shows that molecular emission of CaF and CaCl has a longer lifetime and high spectral intensity than that of their atomic emissions. Such unique feature of molecular emission inspired us to use it for high sensitivity analysis of Cl and F elements in water. The results show that these two elements can be sensitively and accurately detected using LIBS assisted with molecular emission. The limits of detections (LoDs) were 0.38 mg/L and 1.03 mg/L for F and Cl elements, respectively, and the limit of quantitation (LoQ) was 3.404 mg/L to 20.569 mg/L for fluorine elements and 9.986 mg/L to 39.757 mg/L for fluorine. These detection limits can meet the World Health Organization's detection requirements for F and Cl elements in water.
