Two main types of joints occur in the damselfly wing: mobile and immobile. Some longitudinal veins (RP2–, RP3&4–, and MP–) are elastically joined with cross veins, whereas other longitudinal veins (IR1+, IR2+, MA+, CuA'+) are firmly joined with cross veins. In this study we mapped the distribution of serial elastic elements in the wing. The
occurrence of resilin, a rubberlike protein, in mobile joints suggests that the automatic twisting mechanism of the leading
edge by aerodynamic force works not by flexibility but by the elasticity of these joints. First, it should result in elastic
energy storage in the distal areas of the wing. Second, serial elastic elements of wing presumably act as dampers of an aerodynamic
force, which are responsible for gradual twisting of the leading edge.

Novel 1D QSAR approach that allows analysis of non-additive effects of molecular fragments on toxicity has been proposed. Twenty-eight nitroaromatic compounds including some well-known explosives have been chosen for this study. The 50% lethal dose concentration for rats (LD50) was used as the estimation of toxicity in vivo to develop 1D QSAR models on the framework of Simplex representation of molecular structure. The results of 1D QSAR analysis show that even the information about the composition of molecules provides the main trends of toxicity changes. The necessity of consideration of substituents' mutual impacts for the development of adequate QSAR models of nitroaromatics' toxicity was demonstrated. Statistic characteristics for all the developed partial least squares QSAR models, except the additive ones are quite satisfactory (R2=0.81-0.92; Q2=0.64-0.83; R2 test=0.84-0.87). A successful performance of such models is due to their non-additivity i.e. possibility of taking into account the mutual influence of substituents in benzene ring which plays the governing role for toxicity change and could be mediated through the different C-H fragments of the ring. The correspondence between observed and predicted by these models toxicity values is good. This allowing combine advantages of such approaches and develop adequate consensus model that can be used as a toxicity virtual screening tool. 相似文献

Novel catalytic nano-sized materials based on LaCoO(x) perovskite nanoparticles incapsulated in the mesoporous matrix of zirconia were prepared, characterized by physicochemical methods and tested in complete methanol oxidation. LaCoO(x) nanoparticles were prepared inside the mesopores of ZrO(2) by decomposition of bimetallic La-Co glycine precursor complexes. The catalysts have been studied by diffuse-reflectance FTIR-spectroscopy using such probe molecules as CO, CD(3)CN and CDCl(3) to test low-coordinated metal ions. At low temperatures of decomposition of complexes (up to 400°C), low-coordinated Co(3+) ions predominate in the LaCoO(x) nanoparticles, whereas basically Co(2+) ions are found upon increasing the decomposition temperature to 600°C. The novel nano-sized perovskite catalysts exhibit a very high catalytic activity in the abatement of volatile organic compounds present in air, like methanol and light hydrocarbons. 相似文献

Extensive studies have been conducted in the past decades to predict the environmental abiotic and biotic redox fate of nitroaromatic and nitramine explosives. However, surprisingly little information is available on one-electron standard reduction potentials (Eo(R-NO2/R-NO2−)). The Eo(R-NO2/R-NO2−) is an essential thermodynamic parameter for predicting the rate and extent of reductive transformation for energetic residues. In this study, experimental (linear free energy relationships) and theoretical (ab initio calculation) approaches were employed to determine Eo(R-NO2/R-NO2−) for nitroaromatic, (caged) cyclic nitramine, and nitroimino explosives that are found in military installations or are emerging contaminants. The results indicate a close agreement between experimental and theoretical Eo(R-NO2/R-NO2−) and suggest a key trend: Eo(R-NO2/R-NO2−) value decreases from di- and tri-nitroaromatic (e.g., 2,4-dinitroanisole) to nitramine (e.g., RDX) to nitroimino compound (e.g., nitroguanidine). The observed trend in Eo(R-NO2/R-NO2−) agrees with reported rate trends for reductive degradation, suggesting a thermodynamic control on the reduction rate under anoxic/suboxic conditions. 相似文献
