Figure 6.41 50 pi paracetamol in human urine was injected for SPE trapping, (a) Shows the result after single trapping and (b) the result after triple trapping. Urine was obtained from a normal healthy male 4 h after an oral dose of I pg of paracetamol. Bruker Avance 500 MHz NMR spectrometer operated at 500.13 MHz, equipped with a 3.0 mm H/ C inverse LC flow probe (active volume 60 pi). Reproduced from [59] with permission from Elsevier. 

The activated dissociation of H2 (D2) on Cu(l 11) and other single crystal Cu surfaces has played a special role in the development of reactive gas-surface dynamics. Early experiments and theory by Cardillo and collaborators [217-219] first demonstrated the power of molecular beam techniques to probe activated adsorption and the theoretical methodology developed by them (6D quasi-classical dynamics on a model PES) only differs from modem treatments in the use of DFT based PES. 

Dissolve SPDP (Pierce) at a concentration of 6.2 mg/ml in DMSO (makes a 20 mM stock solution). Alternatively, LC-SPDP may be used and dissolved at a concentration of 8.5 mg/ml in DMSO (also makes a 20 mM solution). The LC form of the cross-linker provides a longer spacer arm that often results in better probe activity after modification. If the water-soluble Sulfo-LC-SPDP is used, a stock solution in water may be prepared just prior to addition of an aliquot to the thiolation reaction. In this case, prepare a 10 mM solution of Sulfo-LC-SPDP by dissolving 5.2 mg/ml in water. Since an aqueous solution of the cross-linker will degrade by hydrolysis of the sulfo-NHS ester, it should be used quickly to prevent significant loss of activity.

Attention has been focused on four different chemiluminescent systems, two as substrates for enzymes and two as labels incorporated in the probes (activated after hybridization by H2O2/alkali (Table 7.6)), The latter are usually intended for diagnostic purposes and prepared by commercial suppliers, whereas those serving as a substrate for enzymes attached to the probe-hybrid complex can be readily adapted for many hybridization assays. 

Infrared spectroscopy has continued to support the study of adsorption and reactivity at well-defined electrode surfaces. Single crystals are employed to probe active site models for catalytic reactions and as templates for the deposition and growth of other phases. Infrared spectroscopy has played an important role in enabling in-situ detection and molecular-level characterization of species present at these surfaces. The sections below highlight some recent areas of apphcation. 

The variations in the pH of concrete around the cathode were monitored by means of two pH sensitive probes (activated titanium wires) placed respectively 1 mm and 3 mm far from the steel surface. During the first 4 months, the potential difference between the two electrodes for all specimens was negligible, showing that the pH was low (carbonated) throughout the concrete.

Fundamental understanding of structure-function relationships is central for the design of improved selox catalysts, and has been greatly assisted by the development of new analytical tools with which to probe active sites at subnanometer spatial resolution [36] and subsecond time resolution. X-ray-based methods in particular can provide detailed insight into chemical composition and environment of active components and reacting adsorbates [140-142]. Quick and dispersive XAS have the capabihty to monitor dynamic changes in catalyst structure under reaction conditions (so-caUed operando spectroscopy) and have been applied to alcohol selox over Pd [96, 143-146], Pt [67, 147], and Ru [147] nanoparticles. 

In Sprague-Dawley rats, the mRNA transcript for hepatic CYPlAl, IBl, and 2B1/2 and mammary CyplAl were up-regulated after treatment with indole-3-carbinol at 250 mg/kg (Horn et al. 2002). However, the level of expression of CYPIBI in the liver was lower than that of other CYPs. Hepatic P450 probe activities indicative of induction of CYPlAl, 1A2, and 2B1/2 were increased by indole-3-carbinol in a dose-dependent marmer. Treatment with... 

Remove prehybndization solution and prepare hybridization solution by mixing prewarmed prehybridization solution and the boiled probe/salmon-sperm DNA mix. Final probe activity should be approximately 1x10 cpm/raL buffer. Add to blot and hybridize overnight at 42°C.
