RESUMO
In the present paper, the hydrophobicity ionic liquid 1-butyl-3- methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C4mim] [PF6]) was synthesized with 1-methylimidazole and butylbromide and equimolar ammonium hexafluorophosphate, which was applied to preconcentration for trace gold. The factors which may affect preconcentration of gold were investigated. The experimental results showed that the absorbance was linear when the concentration of gold was in the range of 0.40-16.00 microg x mL(-1), with linear equation A = 0.007 63c + 0.073 87(c:microg x mL(-1)), correlation coefficient r = 0.999 1, and detection limit 0.072 microg x mL(-1). The method was applied to the determination of trace gold in water samples satisfactorily.
RESUMO
Liver transplantation (LT) in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is associated with a high rate of graft loss and poor survival, unless re-infection can be prevented. Human hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) and nucleoside analogues (NA) have long been utilized to prevent re-infection. Previously, we generated a human monoclonal antibody (mAb), HB that recognizes the surface antigen of hepatitis B virus (HBV). We have constructed a secreted version of HB and cloned its genes into recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV). We compared the efficiency of AAV vector after a single injection via intramuscular or intravenous routes without additional intervention. Then, we evaluated the activity of antibody HB in tree shrews treated with rAAV-HB and in vitro experiments. So, intramuscular injection of rAAV-HB was a suitable method for the immunoprophylaxis of HBV infection. This human antibody will be useful for the immunoprophylaxis of HBV infection.
