Study on the fluorescence characteristics of bromadiolone in aqueous and organized media and application in analysis

The fluorescence spectroscopic behavior of bromadiolone (anticoagulant rodenticide), a substituted 4-hydroxycoumarin derivative, was investigated in water and in organized media like micelles and cyclodextrins. A detailed study on various photophysical parameters like fluorescence intensity (I_F), quantum yield (), lifetime (τ) and steady state fluorescence anisotropy (r) of bromadiolone in aqueous and in organized media was carried out. Bromadiolone in aqueous solution was observed to be in an aggregated state, thereby showing weak emission due to self-quenching. Marked enhancement of fluorescence intensity was observed in organized media like micelles and β-cyclodextrin. A preliminary investigation has been done to find out whether this enhancement of fluorescence can be used to develop a sensitive analytical method for determination of bromadialone in aqueous media. A linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity and concentration of bromadiolone was observed in the range of 0.15–7.9 μg ml⁻¹ in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and 0.5–26.4 μg ml⁻¹ in β-cyclodextrin medium. The lower detection limit was found to be 37 ng ml⁻¹ in presence of CTAB and 23 ng ml⁻¹ in β-cyclodextrin. Comparison with 4-hydroxycoumarin, an unsubstituted analogue, was made.     

表面活性剂对热带假丝酵母降解苯酚的影响

通过液态发酵培养法探讨了添加2种化学表面活性剂十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)、曲拉通X-100(Triton X-100)以及生物表面活性剂二鼠李糖脂(dirhamnolipid,diRL)对1株热带假丝酵母(Candida tropicalis)降解苯酚的影响.结果表明,发酵液中苯酚的分解和菌体生长的不同步,反映了苯酚对该菌的毒性作用以及苯酚降解过程中中间产物的形成.CTAB对热带假丝酵母具有毒性作用,抑制菌体对苯酚的降解.低浓度(0.1、0.3CMC)的Triton X-100对C.tropicalis的生长及对苯酚的降解有一定的促进作用,分别将苯酚降解完全的时间由空白的48h提前至24h和36h;随着Triton X-100浓度增大(1.0、3.0CMC),降解初期菌体的衰亡减缓,但使菌体生长滞后,苯酚分解完全的时间延长.生物表面活性剂diRL促进菌体对苯酚降解的同时显著地促进了C.tropicalis的生长,且促进作用随着加入diRL浓度的增大而增强,1.0、3.0CMC的diRL将苯酚降解完全的时间都提前到24h;而diRL在发酵过程中浓度也逐渐降低,这表明diRL很大程度上减弱了苯酚对菌体的毒性,并且可以共同作为碳源促进菌体的生长.     

外源物质对李氏禾超富集铬的作用

通过水培实验发现,施加EDTA、CTAB、SA对铬超富集植物李氏禾地上部分和地下部分的铬含量及生理特性产生不同的的影响。EDTA使叶绿素含量上升,SOD/POD、SOD/CAT的活性比降低,抗氧化酶系统的平衡略有恢复,MDA含量降低,同时促进Cr6+从根部向地上部分运输及积累,根系铬含量降低,总体铬含量仍有较大地提高;CTAB使叶绿素降低,酶活性比值升高,抗氧化酶系统失衡加剧,MDA含量增加,并有效促进根部对Cr的吸收和积累,总体铬含量有大幅度提高;水杨酸可使叶绿素含量、酶活性比值有所恢复,减少MDA的积累,对Cr6+的吸收和运输无显著影响。研究结果既可以为提高超富集植物的修复效率提供科学依据,同时也为研究超富集植物富集重金属铬的生理机制提供良好的线索,在理论和技术上均具有重要价值。     

表面活性剂对斜生栅藻的生态毒性研究

以斜生栅藻(Scenedesmus obliquus)为受试生物,采用藻类急性毒标准方法研究十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)、十二烷基苯磺酸钠(LAS)和辛基苯基聚氧乙烯醚(TX-100)3种较常用的表面活性剂对藻类的生态毒性.通过斜生栅藻的密度及过氧化物酶活性的测定对其作用机制进行探讨.结果表明,在EC50附近,表面活性剂浓度越大其毒性越强,不同离子型表面活性剂对斜生栅藻毒性从大到小为阳离子(CTAB)、阴离子(LAS)、非离子(TX-100).表面活性剂毒性作用机制主要是被吸附在藻细胞的磷脂双分子膜结构表面,从而引起膜结构的破坏和功能的丧失,进而导致细胞死亡.     

Effects of temperature and surfactants on naphthalene and phenanthrene sorption by soil

Adsorption experiments were carried out to investigate the sorption behaviors of naphthalene and phenanthrene in six different soils and to determine the effects of temperature, linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) and cetylrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) on sorption. The results show that for a given sorbent phenanthrene exhibited greater nonlinear and stronger sorption than naphthalene. There was a strong negative correlation for the Koc values with organic carbon content (foc). The increase of temperature was not favorable to sorption. Sorption decreased along with the increasing aqueous LAS concentration from 0 to 1000 mg/L. At low CTAB concentration (＜ 100 mg/L), the adsorption increased as CTAB hemimicelles formed on the soil surface. At high concentration, CTAB decreased the adsorption by occupying active hydrophobic adsorption sites and solubilization of naphthalene and phenanthrene.     

Immobilization of self-assembled pre-dispersed nano-TiO2 onto montmorillonite and its photocatalytic activity

The immobilization of pre-dispersed Ti O_2 colloids onto the external surface of the clay mineral montmorillonite(Mt) was accomplished and regulated via a self-assembly method employing the cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB). The role of CTAB in the synthesis process was investigated by preparing a series of Ti O_2-CTAB-Mt composites(TCM) with various CTAB doses. The results indicated that a uniform and continuous Ti O_2 film was deposited on the external surface of montmorillonite in the composite synthesized with 0.1 wt.% of CTAB, and the TCM nano-composites showed much higher values for specific surface area, average pore size and pore volume than the raw montmorillonite clay. Then, the formed TCM materials were applied in photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol(2,4-DCP) in aqueous solution. The degradation efficiency reached as high as 94.7%. Based on the degradation intermediates benezoquinone, fumaric acid and oxalic acid identified by LC–MS analysis, a mechanism for the photocatalytic oxidation of 2,4-DCP on Ti O_2/Mt nano-composites is proposed.

CTAB改性地聚合物同时去除Cu(II)和Cr(VI)

地聚合物（Geopolymer,简称GP）是由含硅铝酸盐的偏高岭土（Metakaolin,简称MK）或固体废料（如粉煤灰）经碱性激活制备的立体网状结构无机聚合物,对大部分重金属阳离子有良好的吸附作用,但对以阴离子形态存在的重金属吸附效果很差.本研究以偏高岭土为主要原料制备GP,同时用CTAB进行改性,研究其化学组成变化及对典型以阴、阳离子形态存在的重金属Cr（VI）和Cu（II）的同时吸附作用.结果表明,pH为5、吸附时间为24 h、初始浓度为50 mg·L^-1、吸附剂投加量为1 g·L^-1时,CTAB-GP对Cu（II）的去除率达到98.6%,Cr（VI）的最高去除率为25.6%,同时还发现溶液中Cu（II）的存在对吸附Cr（VI）有较大促进作用.整体来看,两种金属混合吸附时很好地符合二级动力学规律,单溶质吸附很好地符合Langmuir和Freundlich等温式,Cu（II）和Cr（VI）的理论最大吸附量分别为147.1 mg·g^-1和63.1 mg·g^-1.XRD、FTIR和BET表征分析结果表明,CTAB-GP中即使存在季铵盐阳离子,但依然属于地聚合物.CTAB-GP可以不牺牲对重金属阳离子吸附性能的同时吸附阴离子,优于常规地聚合物,鉴于CTAB-GP的这种特性,其在重金属污染防治中显示出极大的应用前景.     

高铁酸钾处理水中十六烷基三甲基溴化铵

室温条件下采用新型氧化剂高铁酸钾(K2FeO4)处理十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)模拟废水,探讨反应时间、K2FeO4投加量及体系pH值等因素对CTAB去除率的影响.结果表明,反应时间、K2FeO4投加量及溶液pH值对CTAB的去除率均有不同程度的影响,当反应时间为30 min、K2FeO4投加量与处理液中CTAB质量比为1∶1、溶液pH为7时,K2FeO4对表面活性剂CTAB的去除率达79.4%.在反应过程中,K2FeO4的强氧化性与其还原产物的絮凝作用产生协同效应,其中K2FeO4在完全反应之前CTAB的去除主要依靠K2FeO4的强氧化作用,K2FeO4反应完全之后CTAB的去除则主要依靠K2FeO4还原产物的絮凝作用.同时进一步研究了CTAB被处理前后的红外光谱特征,结果表明CTAB在降解过程中经历了链的断裂并进一步被矿化为无机小分子.化学反应动力学研究结果表明K2FeO4与CTAB的反应符合二级反应动力学规律.
