The chemi- cal changes that appeared on the surface of the samples were investigated using Fourier transform infrared （FT4R） spectroscopy and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared （ATR- FTIR） spectroscopy after treatment for 2 min, 4 min and 6 rain in a nitrogen plasma chamber. Effects of the plasma treatment on the surface topographies and contact angles of the untreated and plasma treated films were also analyzed by atomic force microscopy （AFM） and a contact angle measuring system. The results show that the plasma treated films become more hydrophilic with an enhanced wettability due to the formation of some new polar groups on the surface of the treated films. Moreover, at higher exposure times, the total surface energy in all treated films increased while a reduction in contact angle occurred. The behavior of surface roughness in each sample was completely different at higher exposure times.展开更多

The diffusion of PQ molecules during holographic recording was negligible because of its small diffusion coefficient at room temperature. A photochemical reaction kinetics model of PQ/PMMA was established. The analytical expressions for the temporal variations of transmittance and diffraction efficiency were derived. By fitting the experimental curves, some parameters related with the polymer components were obtained by the proposed model, which can be used to analyze the photochemical process and will be helpful to the optimization of material preparation.展开更多

In order to explore the mutagenicity and mechanism of GMA, plasmid PBR322 was used for in vitro binding, mutant screening, restriction enzyme mapping,and DNA sequencing. To explore the mechamism by which an initial premutational event is converted into a stable heritable mutation, pBR322 and GMA-bound pBR322 were transformed into E. coli HB101 , and the following results were obtained : 1) GMA-bound PBR322 induced phenotype changes in competent cells. Two stable and heritable mutants were isolated (Ap￣RTc￣S and Ap￣STc￣R). 2) When restriction enzyme mapping was used to analyze the mutant Ap￣RTc￣S , four of seven maps showed changes, but no large DNA insertion or deletion were observed.3) The frequency of deletion and insertion forms counted about 10%. Sequence specificity and hot spot regions were evident in the sequence analysis of mutated plasmid. The above results indicate that the premutagenic lesions of plasmid induced by GMA can be converted into point mutations in vivo.展开更多

The method mainly includes two steps. First, a stainless steel slice was laser etched to form a metal model. Then, the organic solution of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) was casted onto the metal model to fabricate the PMMA master which subsequently would be used to fabricate PDMS chips. We systematically researched different laser parameters influencing the surface status of microchannels and obtained optimized etching parameters. We investigated and optimized the organic solution composition of PMMA while casting chip masters, and developed a method to form fine polymer masters using two different viscosity solutions to cast the model in turn, and studied the repeatable replication. Then, we investigated physical performance of this chip and evaluated the practicability by analyzing Rhodamine B. Compared with present methods, the proposed method does not need photolithography on photoresistant and chemical etching. The entire fabricating progress is simple, fast, low-cost and can be controlled easily. Only several minutes are required to make a metal model, 3 hours for a PMMA master, and one day for PDMS chips.展开更多
