Abstract:
This paper reports an ongoing study of the use of short chain peptides as carriers of a potential antitumor agents: 2,6-dimethoxyhydroquinone-3-mercaptoacetic acid (DMQ-MA). Three new peptide-DMQ-MA conjugates: DMQ-MA-arg-arg-ome, DMQ-MA-lys(cbz)-arg-ome, DMQ-MA-lys(cbz)-arg-arg-ome were synthesized by coupling protected amino acids in solution and the next conjugation was achieved by reacting with pentafluorophenyl ester of DMQ-MA in DMF, and further study on their ability to inhibit human pulmonary adenocarcinoma cell line (PC-9 cells) and oral epidermoid carcinoma cell line (KB) are investigating.

Abstract:
Electropolymerization of aniline in KOH solution and properties of the polymer are studied by using in situ reflex ellipsometry, cyclic voltammetry and fluorescence spectroscopic method. The change patterns of ellipsometric parameters and the thickness of film in the process of electropolymerization are investigated. The complex refractive indices and the fluorescence spectra of PAN indicate that the PAN is a new kind of luminous material.

Abstract:
The semiempirical calculations were performed to discuss the effects of different substituents on the optical properties of a series of substituted benzonitriles and their corresponding oligomers. The substituents located in para, meta and ortho-position of the benzenoid ring involve a large range of δ-π electron-donor-acceptor capability. Theoretical analysis shows that the optical property is affected by the steric and electronic characteristics of the substituents on the benzenoid ring, moreover, the third-order polarizability regularly varies with the polymerization degrees.

Abstract:
Strong room-temperature photoluminescence from the adducts of C60 reacting with five different aliphatic amines, namely propylethylamine (PPA), n-butyl amine (BTA), n-heptylamine (HPA) and dodecylamine (DDA) and diethylamine (DEA), was firstly found from their toluene solution at relatively shorter wavelength around 519 nm.The fluorescence intensity has a good correlation with the length of n-alkyl group chain, the steric position and concentration of different amines and setting of solution as well as the UV-radiation. Their fluorescence quenching by concentration and by aromatic electron-donor N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) were first investigated and determined.

Stable thin films made from polyionic complex 2C12N+PVS- with incorporated Hb on PG electrodes were characterized by electrochemistry. The electron transfer between Hb and PG electrodes was greatly facilitated in microenvironment of 2C12N+PVS- films. The Hb-2C12N+PVS- films could be used to catalytically reduce trichloroacetic acid.

Abstract:
Binding of La3+ to Fura-2 can change 340/380 nm fluorescence intensity ratio. Whether La3+ cross ventricular cell membrane was detected by this fluorescent probe technique. Fura-2 loaded isolated guinea pig ventricular cells were exposed to 0.01-0.1mM extracellular Lanthanum ion concentration, 340nm/380 nm fluorescence ratio was not changed. Using calcium channel agonist BAY K8644, KCL (35mM) depolarization to open the voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC); Adrenoceptor agonist to excite adrenoceptor, 340/380 ratio was not changed, suggesting that La3+ can not enter guinea pig ventricular cells in this case.

Abstract:
Semiempirical quantum chemical method AMI was employed to calculate the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy levels (EHOMO) for various types of antioxidants. It was verified that the correlation between logarithm of free radical scavenging rate constants (lgks) and EHOMO substantially arises from the correlation between EHOMO and O-H bond dissociation energies (BDE) of antioxidants. Furthermore, EHOMO were poorly correlated with the logarithm of relative free radical scavenging rate constants (lgk3/k1) for various types of antioxidants that possess complex structures (r=0.5602). So in a broad sense, EHOMO was not an appropriate parameter to characterize the free radical scavenging activity of antioxidants.

Abstract:
The effect of poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) on the w/o microemulsion is studied. The addition of PEO induces a decrease of attractive interaction between droplets in reverse microemulsion. Due to the absence of interaction between cationic surfactant and neutral polymer, the polymer molecules are forced into the interior of water core, avoiding the interfacial region.

Abstract:
Dielectric measurements were performed on middle phase microemulsions composed of sodium dodecylsulfate(SDS), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB), n-butanol, n-heptane and brine. Distinct and unique dielectric behavior, with characteristic frequency dependence regularity on the salinity of the microemulsions, was observed in the low-frequency range from 10-103Hz. It can be considered to be an interfacial polarization mechanism.

Abstract:
Chemical bond parameters, that is, bond covalency, bond valence, macroscopic linear susceptibility, and oxidation states of elements in Sr3MRhO6 (M=Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Yb) have been calculated. The results indicate that the bond covalency of M-O decreases sharply with the decrease of ionic radius of M3+ from Sm to Yb, while no obvious trend has been found for Rh-O and Sr-O bonds. The global instability index indicates that the crystal structures of Sr3MrhO6 (M=Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, Ho) have strained bonds.
