The results show that the chemical composition and activity of the catalysts are greatly changed with the variation of calcination temperature. The catalyst Au/Fe2O3 calcined at 200℃, highly dispersed particles with the partially oxidized gold species on the support with the mean diameter of 3nm～5nm, displayes the best activity and selectivity of CO selective oxidation. However, the catalytic activity of Au/Fe2O3 decreases drastically with increasing calcination temperature due to the aggregation of metallic gold and bigger particle sizes. It is found that the catalytic behavior is related to the gold particle size but the nature of the support. On the basis of characterization data, in addition to the particle size of metallic gold, the oxidation states of gold are proven to be important for CO selective oxidation in H2-rich gas.展开更多

The nanofibrous membrane can be remotely controlled and activated by a laser light or magnetic field to release biological agents on demand. The nanosystems were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analyses. The drug loading efficiency and drug content percentages were determined by UV-vis optical absorption spectroscopy. The nanofibrous membrane irradiated by a relatively low-intensity laser or stimulated by a magnetic field showed sustained silibinin release for at least 60 h, without the burst effect. The proposed low-cost electrospinning procedure is capable of assembling, via a one-step procedure, a stimuli-responsive drug-loaded nanosystem with metallic nanoparticles to be externally activated for controlled drug delivery.展开更多

One dumbbelMike Au-Fe2O3NP composes an Au NP[（3.3±0.3） nm in diameter] for conjugating CXCR4 binding cyclic peptide through Au-S covalent bond and a Fe2O3 NP[（8.7±0.8） nm in diameter] for using as T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging（MRI） contrast agent. The anti-CXCR4-Au-Fe2O3 NPs have reasonable biocompatibility and integration of T2-weighted MRI contrast and tumor-targeting functionalities. The anti- CXCR4-Au-Fe2O3 NPs exhibit strong interactions with two kinds of breast tumor cells, MCF-7 cells and MDA-MB-231 cells, and high negative contrast in MRI of MDA-MB-231 tumor bearing mouse with 62% decreasing of MRI signal, indicating that the anti-CXCR4-Au-Fe2O3 NPs can recognize tumor with high efficacy and specificity.展开更多
