The invention relates to a class of glucose-responsive, polyviologen boronic acid quenchers that may be used in combination with fluophores to achieve real-time measurement of glucose levels in vivo.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to an optical sensor capable of measuring two analytes simultaneously with a single indicator system. In preferred embodiments, the sensor comprises a fluorescent dye having acid and base forms that facilitate ratiometric pH sensing, wherein the dye is further associated with a glucose binding moiety and configured to generate a signal that varies in intensity with the concentration of glucose.

摘要:
Novel pyridinium salts functionalized with boronic acid and methods of making them are disclosed. When combined with a fluorescent dye, the compounds are useful in the detection of polyhydroxyl-substituted organic molecules.
摘要:
The present invention further provides a substantially non-aqueous agricultural pesticide concentrate formulation of a non-ionic surfactant and a amphipathic graft copolymer composition in admixture with a water-insoluble organic agricultural pesticide which concentrate formulation can be easily diluted with water to form non-settling, freeze-thaw stable formulations. The present invention further provides methods for the use of water-diluted agricultural pesticide concentrate formulations of the above non-ionic surfactant concentrate formulations in the kill and control of agricultural pest.
摘要:
The unsaturation of a hydroxyl-containing compound can be reduced by reaction with a nitrile oxide compound such as tetramethyl terephthalonitrile, N,N'-dioxide. The reaction of a nitrile oxide with terminal unsaturation associated with the preparation of a polyol from propylene oxide reduces the monol content of the polyol composition.

This invention relates to a method of and apparatus for separating component gases in a gas mixture employing a glassy polymer membrane at temperatures of 5.degree. C. or less so as to achieve superior separation of gas components.
摘要:
This invention relates to a low heat release, low density, fiber-reinforced composite comprising a matrix comprising a thermoplastic polymer selected from the group consisting of polyarylsulfone, polyethersulfone, polyetheretherketone, polyetherketoneketone, a copolycarbonate of 4,4'-thiodiphenol and at least one member of the group consisting of bisphenol A, 9,9-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) fluorene, and 1,1-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-phenyl ethane, a copolycarbonate of bisphenol A and 9,9-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) fluorene, 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-phenyl ethane polycarbonate, bisphenol A polycarbonate, and polyetherimide, and from about 10 to about 70 percent by weight of the composite of randomly oriented reinforcing fibers, less than 0.5 inch in length, distributed throughout the matrix. The matrix has a void volume of from about 20 to about 90 percent by volume. The composite has a thermoplastic skin layer on each of the major surfaces thereof. A process for making the composite is also disclosed.
