Core-shell Au@MIL-100 (Fe) as an enhanced substrate for flunixin meglumine ultra-sensitive detection.

This study aimed to develop and validate a simple and efficient surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) method to determine flunixin meglumine (FM) residues in animal tissues through using core-shell Au@MIL-100 (Fe) as enhanced substrate. Au@MIL-100 (Fe) composite material was synthesized by coating metal-organic framework materials (MOFs) on the surface of gold nanoparticles using the solvothermal method. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-vis spectrum, SERS spectrum, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Infrared spectrum (FT-IR), and EDX elemental mapping results revealed that the structural composition of the compound has good properties with localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties, high adsorption capacity, excellent SERS sensitivity and stability.

Benzoylaconitine (BAC), the main hydrolysate of aconitine, is a lower toxic monoester type alkaloid considered as the pharmacodynamic constituent in Aconitum species. In this study, the effects and mechanisms of BAC on production of inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 were investigated in IL-1β-stimulated human synovial SW982 cells. The SW982 cells were incubated with BAC (0, 5 and 10 µM) before stimulating with IL-1β (10 ng/mL).

Cold-inducible protein RBM3 mediates hypothermic neuroprotection against neurotoxin rotenone via inhibition on MAPK signalling.

Mild hypothermia and its key product, cold-inducible protein RBM3, possess robust neuroprotective effects against various neurotoxins. However, we previously showed that mild hypothermia fails to attenuate the neurotoxicity from MPP , one of typical neurotoxins related to the increasing risk of Parkinson disease (PD). To better understand the role of mild hypothermia and RBM3 in PD progression, another known PD-related neurotoxin, rotenone (ROT) was utilized in this study.

Interaction of IFNλR1 with TRAF6 regulates NF-κB activation and IFNλR1 stability.

IFNλR1 is a member of the class II cytokine receptor family, and it associates with IL-10R2 to form a functional receptor complex, IFNλR. This receptor complex transduces signals from IFNλs (IFNλ1, IFNλ2, and IFNλ3), promoting antiviral and antiproliferative activities similar to those of type I IFNs. In an effort to further understand signal transduction through IFNλR1, we used bioinformatics analysis and identified a tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6)-binding motif in the intracellular domain of IFNλR1.

[Applications of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy to detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons].

In the present review article, the methodology and recent advances of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) were described in detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs, a series of organic compounds, are of much concern because some of them as pollutants have been identified as carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic compounds. They show low affinity to metallic surface, which confines applications of SERS to their detections.

[Raman spectroscopy study on the interaction of ginsenoside Rb1 with DPPC bilayers].

In the present work, the authors studied the interaction of ginsenoside Rh1 with lipid bilayers composed of DPPC using Raman spectroscopy. The conformational changes of DPPC molecule were further revealed by analyzing its vibrational modes such as the C--N stretching mode in the polar head-group region (650-850 cm(-1)), C--C stretching (1000-1200 cm(-1)), and C--H stretching (2750-3000 cm(-1)). The results indicated that there was little influence of Rb1 on the conformation of O--C--C--N+ backbone in the choline group of DPPC bilayers.

To avoid enhancing the noise resulting from the derivative the spectra were smoothed.

[Infrared spectroscopy of epimedium brevicornum based on artificial neural network].

Regarding raw drugs of the different habitat and the different cultivation condition, its treatment efficacy is different. This is because they contain different chemical composition and different ingredients content proportion, which causes the difference in their infrared spectra. But these differences are extremely slight, and purely differentiating their characteristics from the infrared spectra is extremely difficult.
