Abstract The increased alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) activity of reconstituted lyophilized control sera has recently been the focus of considerable interest because of its possible implications for quality-control procedures. We confirm that these reconstituted materials show a temperature-dependent increase in alkaline phosphatase activity, but could show no alteration in activity of fresh sera. The rate of increase in activity was unaffected by dialysis of the reconstituted material, and occurred more rapidly in dilute solutions. Studies with acrylamide gel electrophoresis and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration showed that, immediately after reconstitution, a high-molecular-weight alkaline phosphatase component predominated; during subsequent spontaneous activation this component decreased, and there was a concomitant increase in a low-molecular-weight alkaline phosphatase component. The results obtained when the reconstituted material was extracted with butanol suggest that the observed changes in alkaline phosphatase activity may be attributed to the breakdown of a complex between alkaline phosphatase and lipoprotein.

Abstract Solubilities of seven phenolic antioxidants in rubber and three antioxidants in low density polyethylene (LDPE) were measured at temperatures ranging trom 40°C–100°C. The antioxidants are more soluble in rubber than in LDPE, which is semicrystalline. The solubility of antioxidants is temperature dependent and both the melting point of the additive and its interactions with the polymer are important in determining solubility. As a general rule, solubility decreases with increasing molecular weight.

This paper firstly summarized the latest research progress on the polymer brushes preparation by surface-initiated ARGET ATRP polymerization. It mainly includes the surface modifications of inorganic substrate (silicon dioxide and carbon nanotubes), and the organic substrate (cellulose and polymer microspheres). This method needs less catalyst and operates more easily, compared to the classical ATRP. Besides, it also has good polymerization controllability, and the polymer brushes have higher grafting density and molecular weight. Therefore, surface-initiated ARGET ATRP polymerization has become an effective method for modifying the surface of materials. Then, we prepared the polymer brush supported TEMPO by the surface-initiated ARGET ATRP and characterized.
