Magnetic Leakage Internal Detection Device and Series-Parallel Detection Method for Small Diameter Ferromagnetic Spiral Heat Exchanger Tubes
Based on the calculation of magnetic circuit of the detection probe, this article designs a kind of magnetic leakage detection device and series-parallel detection method of small diameter spiral heat exchange tube to realize the safety detection of small diameter spiral heat exchange tube. The detection device includes a detection probe and a probe drive mechanism, which drives the detection probe to move in the spiral heat exchange tube. The detection probe includes an intermediate connector, a magnetizer which is arranged coaxially at both ends of the intermediate connector in turn, a steel ball support body and an end connector. The designed detection probes are mixed in series and parallel, and multiple detection probes are put together in series to be placed in a spiral heat exchange tube to form a group of detection probes in series. Then, multiple groups of detection probes in series are placed in each spiral heat exchange pipe, forming a series-parallel combination, which can detect multiple spiral heat exchange pipes at the same time and improve the detection efficiency greatly
Redox-Responsive Hyperbranched Poly(amido amine)s with Tertiary Amino Cores for Gene Delivery
Redox-responsive hyperbranched poly(amido
amine)s (PAAs) with tertiary
amino cores and amine, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and hydroxyl terminal
groups were prepared for DNA delivery respectively. The DNA condensation
capability of PAAs was investigated using gel electrophoresis, and
the results showed that PAA terminated with 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperazine
(AEPZ) (BAA) is the most efficient in binding plasmid DNA (pDNA).
The diameter and zeta-potential of polyplexes from PAAs were characterized
using dynamic light scattering (DLS), and the morphology of the polyplexes
was obtained using atomic force microscopy (AFM). All the PAAs were
able to condense pDNA into nanoparticles with diameters between 50
and 200 nm with a positive surface charge when the weight ratio of
polymer/DNA was higher than 20. Glutathione (GSH)-induced DNA release
from polyplexes and the buffering capability of PAAs were investigated
as well. Cytotoxicity of PAAs and <i>in vitro</i> gene transfection
of polyplexes were evaluated in HEK293, COS-7, MCF-7 and Hep G2 cell
lines, respectively. The results reflect that PAAs show remarkably
low or even no cytotoxicity, and that PAA with amino terminal groups
mediates the most efficient gene transfection with the transfection
efficiency comparable to that of 25 kDa polyethylenimine. Further
the effects of the presence of buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) on the
transfection efficiency and cytotoxicity of BAA polyplexes were investigated
