RESUMO
The secondary structure of a staphylokinase variant (K35R, DGR) encapsulated in poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres was quantitatively examined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Resolution enhancement technique and Fourier deconvolution were combined with band with curve-fitting procedures to quantitate the spectral information from the amide I bands. Nine component bands were found under the broad, nearly featureless amide I bands and assigned to alpha-helix, beta-sheet, turn and irregular (random) structures. The changes of bands at 1 651 and 1 623 cm(-1) after encapsulation were discussed.

A novel, simple, rapid, sensitive and highly selective flow injection procedure for the spectrophotometric determination of chlorine dioxide in the presence of other chlorine species, viz, free chlorine, chlorite, chlorate and hypochlorite, is developed. The method is based on the discoloration reaction between chlorine dioxide and chlorophenol red and can overcome the shortcomings existed in direct spectrophotometric determination for chlorine dioxide owing to the serious interference of free and combined chlorine. The procedure gave a linear calibration graph over the range 0-0.71 mg/L of chlorine dioxide. With a detection limit of 0.024 mg/L and a sample throughput of 60 samples/h.
