The synthesis of 4-N-[3',4',5'-tris(dodecyloxy)benzamido]benzene-4-sulfonic acid (1) and 4'-[3",4",5"-tris(dodecyloxy)benzoyloxy]azobenzene-4-sulfonic acid (2) is described. Pure acid 1 is stable, while 2 can be stored only in solution. Both acids were obtained from their sodium salts and were quantitatively transformed into the pyridinium salts. The phase behavior of these acids, as well as the sulfonates was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and polarizing optical microscopy. The investigated compounds exhibit columnar mesophases. The formation of columnar superstructures was demonstrated for the sodium sulfonates by scanning force microscopy, gelation experiments, and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
This paper describes the reversible activation of a mechanosensitive channel via a light-sensitive lipid mimic. For these experiments, the mechanosensitive channel of large conductance (MscL) protein from Lactococcus lactis and Escherichia coli was reconstituted in lipid bilayers composed of 80 mol % 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and 20 mol % di-(5-[[4-(4-butylphenyl)azo]phenoxy]pentyl)phosphate (4-Azo-5P). Light-induced isomerization of the azobenzene moiety of 4-Azo-5P from trans to cis was used to activate MscL.
This study was performed to investigate the variables that influence the efficiency of decolorization of a solution containing an azo dye (Acid Red 14) by electrocoagulation (EC) in order to compare the efficiency of different electrode connections for color removal. Current density, time of electrolysis, interelectrode distance, and pH of the solution were the variables that most influenced color removal. Initially, a simple electrochemical cell was prepared with an anode and a cathode. Then the effect of each variable was studied separately using synthetic wastewater in a batch mode. The efficiency of the method tested was determined by measurement of color removal and reduction of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). For dye solutions with COD of approximately 30 ppm and dye concentrations less than 150 ppm, high color removal (93%) was obtained when the pH ranged from 6 to 9, time of electrolysis was approximately 4 min, current density was approximately 80 A/m2, the temperature was approximately 300 K, and interelectrode distance was 1 cm. During the EC process under these conditions, the COD decreased by more than 85%. In the second series of experiment, the efficiency of EC cells with monopolar electrodes in series and parallel connections and an EC cell with bipolar electrodes were compared with results using a simple electrochemical cell. The experimental results showed that an EC cell with several electrodes was more effective than a simple electrochemical cell in color removal. The results also showed that an EC cell with monopolar electrodes had a higher color removal efficiency than an EC cell with bipolar electrodes. Furthermore, within an EC cell, the series connection of the monopolar electrodes was more effective for the treatment process than the parallel connection in color removal.
