The investigation was carried out on a capillary electrophoresis instrument by monitoring the UV absorption peak of a solute pulse and calculating the diffusion coefficient by peak efficiency. With L-phenylalanine as a main testing solute, some key factors were afterward disclosed including especially the capillary size, carrier flow velocity, injection volume and capillary conditioning. Peak tailing, large volume of sample injection and slow migration were found to underestimate the diffusion coefficient while very fast migration and high sample concentration caused overestimation. At a moderate flow velocity of 0.1―1 cm/s with a capillary of 72.44 μm I.D.×60 cm (50 cm effective) maintained at 25℃, the diffusion coefficient of aqueous L-phenylalanine was determined, giving a value of 7.02×10-6 cm2/s with error <2% and relative standard deviation <0.2% (n=3). The method was shown to be applicable to the measurement of various samples such as aqueous phenylalanine, acetone, phenol, toluene and benzene, and nonaqueous benzene (in ethanol or 1-butanol).展开更多

To overcome the grave distortion problem in the restored secret image,this paper proposes a new embedding scheme consisting of reasonable partition of a pixel value and sign embedding. Moreover, based on human visual system (HVS) and fuzzy theory,this paper also presents a fuzzy classification method for DOT sub-blocks to realize the adaptive selection of embedding strength. The experimental results show that the maximum distortion error in pixel value for the extracted secret image is ±1. And the color cover image can provide good quality after embedding large amount of data.展开更多
