Deposition and dispersion of aerosols in the airways of the human respiratory tract: the effect ofparticle sizeAuthors: G Scheuch, W StahlhofenSmall volumes of aerosols (boluses) were inspired predominantly into the conducting airways of human lungs with a fast operating valve system, injecting preselected aerosol volumes near the end of a clean air inhalation. Particle recovery and bolus dispersion in the exhaled air after various periods of breathholding were investigated by measuring aerosol number concentration directly in front of the mouth with a laser photometer. Inspired and expired flow rates were measured with a pneumotachograph. The effect of particle size on these measurements has been investigated using aerosol particles with aerodynamic diameters (dae) between 0.9 and 5 microns. For aerosol particles smaller than 2 microns, bolus dispersion increases with increasing periods of breathholding (tb). After reaching a maximum, dispersion decreases with even longer tb. An increase in particle size yields a smaller increase in dispersion during the first seconds of breathholding while it is not changed significantly without breathhold. Particle losses during inhalation and exhalation increases with particle size. However, with increasing periods of breathholding, the losses of the smaller particles (less than 1.5 microns) were found to be much higher than expected theoretically, implying particle losses by sedimentation in the same airway structures. The small aerosol particles are deposited in smaller airways than bigger particles. These observations can be explained by cardiogenic mixing during periods of breathholding by pulsatile flow oscillations and confirm measurements with enhanced heart rate as described in an earlier paper. Small particles with restricted settling velocities remained longer in an airborne state in the airways and this leads to a more efficient cardiogenic mixing.

Subsequent modifications in the design of ultrasonic nebulizers have occurred. Overall nebulizer performance characteristics of the newer ultrasonic devices have not been evaluated. OBJECTIVE: Three commercially available ultrasonic nebulizers (DeVilbiss-Pulmosonic, Omron-Microair, Rh.nePoulenc-Rorer-Fisoneb) were studied to compare the aerosol output characteristics. METHODS: The parameters studied were total volume output (TVO), time to nebulize total output (TTO), percent of droplets with volume diameters in the respirable range (PDVRR, 1 to 5 microm), albuterol concentration during nebulization, and the total drug delivered. All nebulizers were filled with 2.5 mL of saline and 0.5 mL of albuterol nebulizer solution. Three units from each manufacturer, each from a different lot, were evaluated in duplicate. RESULTS: The nebulizer with the largest volume output was the Omron (mean 2.94 mL), which also demonstrated the longest nebulization time (mean 10.3 min). The DeVilbiss and Rh.ne Poulenc-Rorer units delivered smaller volumes (mean 2.5 mL, 2.4 mL, respectively) but nebulized more rapidly (mean 2.21 min, 3.54 min, respectively). The Omron nebulizer generated the highest PDVRR with a mean of 38%. The DeVilbiss had a mean PDVRR of 16% and the Rh.ne Poulenc-Rorer a mean PDVRR of 21%. The majority of droplets from all three machines had a volume diameter smaller than the respirable range, ie, in the 0.5 to 1.0 microm range (Omron-60%, DeVilbiss-83%, Rh.ne Poulenc-Rorer-79%). For all three nebulizers there appeared to be no concentrating or diluting effect during nebulization implying that equal quantities of albuterol and diluent were delivered. The Rh.ne Poulenc-Rorer units demonstrated the greatest unit-to-unit variability with respect to TVO while the Omron units demonstrated the greatest unit to unit variability with respect to TTO. CONCLUSION: We conclude that several improvements in the design of ultrasonic nebulizers have resulted in the reduction of the size of the droplets generated. Our evaluation of the three commercially available ultrasonic nebulizers revealed that the majority of droplets generated were within or below the respirable range. There was no concentrating or diluting effect during nebulization for all three nebulizers. The output characteristics of the three devices differ and this will effect the delivery time as well as amount of drug delivered to the lungs.Annals of allergy, asthma & immunology : official publication of the American College of Allergy, Asthma, &Immunology. 01/03/2000; 84(2):255-61.ISSN: 1081-1206The function profile of compressed-air and ultrasonic nebulizers Authors: Hsin-Lin Wu, Yung-Zen Lin, W ei-Fong Wu, Fu-Yuan HuangIn order to study the detailed function of two kinds of nebulizers commonly used in clinical asthma treatment, compressed-air and ultrasonic, this study was conducted. At the beginning, various flow rates were adjusted, paired with different volumes of solutions in the container. The changes of temperature, pH, and osmolality during the course of nebulization were examined. Normal saline, terbutaline, and fenoterol solutions were used as the nebulized solutions. The study was performed in an environment in ambient temperature around 20 degrees C and relative humidity around 70%. The results showed a minimal 6 L/min flow rate was required to nebulize the solution when using the compressed-air nebulizer. The dead volume was about 0.8 ml for compressed-air and 8.5 ml for the ultrasonic nebulizer. When using the compressed-air nebulizer, the temperature, both in the solution and at the mouthpiece site, dropped gradually. On the contrary, the temperatures at both sites increased a little bit when using the ultrasonic nebulizer. The pH values of pure terbutaline and fenoterol nebulized solutions were acidic (3.58 and 3.00 respectively). The osmolality of terbutaline and fenoterol nebulized solutions were isotonic. The osmolality increased gradually during the course of nebulization, to a greater extent in the compressed-air nebulizer. In conclusion, both types of nebulizers have their special features. The ultrasonic nebulizer displays less extent in change of temperature and osmolality during nebulization and is expected to be a better device in treating asthmatic patients in terms of lesser effect on cooling and changing the osmolality of airway mucosa.

Agricultural Sciences in China 2009, 8(9): 1039-1045September 2009© 2009, CAAS. All rights reserved. Published by Elsevier Ltd.Detection of QTLs with Additive Effects, Epistatic Effects, and QTL ×Environment Interactions for Zeleny Sedimentation Value Using a Doubled Haploid Population in Cultivated WheatZHAO Liang, LIU Bin, ZHANG Kun-pu, TIAN Ji-chun and DENG Zhi-yingState Key Laboratory of Crop Biology, Group of Quality Wheat Breeding, Shandong Agricultural University, Tai’an 271018, P.R.ChinaAbstractIn order to understand the genetic basis for Zeleny sedimentation value (ZSV) of wheat, a doubled haploid (DH) population Huapei 3×Yumai 57 (Yumai 57 is superior to Huapei 3 for ZSV), and a linkage map consisting of 323 marker loci were used to search QTLs for ZSV. This program was based on mixed linear models and allowed simultaneous mapping of additive effect QTLs, epistatic QTLs, and QTL×environment interactions (QEs). The DH population and the parents were evaluated for ZSV in three field trials. Mapping analysis produced a total of 8 QTLs and 2 QEs for ZSV with a single QTL explaining 0.64-14.39% of phenotypic variations. Four additive QTLs, 4 pairs of epistatic QTLs, and two QEs collectively explained 46.11% of the phenotypic variation (PVE). This study provided a precise location of ZSV gene within the Xwmc 93 and GluD1 interval, which was designated as Qzsv-1D. The information obtained in this study should be useful for manipulating the QTLs for ZSV by marker assisted selection (MAS) in wheat breeding programs.Key words: doubled haploid population, Zeleny sedimentation value, quantitative trait loci (QTLs), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)INTRODUCTIONThe Zeleny sedimentation value (ZSV) has been provento be useful in wheat breeding programs for the esti-mation of wheat eating and cooking quality (Mesdag1964; Kne et al. 1993; Liu et al. 2003; He et al.2004; Zhang et al. 2005; Özberk et al. 2006; Ozturket al. 2008). There is a positive correlation betweensedimentation volume and gluten strength or loaf volume.The ZSV method is often used as a screening test inwheat breeding. Mesdag (1964) showed that the valueof ZSV is a measure for the quantity and quality of thegluten. Because the baking value of wheat flour is largelydetermined by these components, the ZSV is also con-sidered as a useful predictor for the baking value. LiuReceived 3 December, 2008 Accepted 9 April, 2009Correspondence TIAN Ji-chun, Professor, Tel/Fax: +86-538-8242040, E-mail: jctian9666@et al. (2003) detected that the associations betweenZSV and DWCN’s (dry white Chinese noodle) appear-ance and taste also fit quadratic regression modelsignificantly. The gluten quality-related parameter ofsedimentation value was significantly associated withpan bread quality score (He et al. 2004). Özberk et al.(2006) found that the only quality analyses showingsignificant correlations with market price were Zelenysedimentation value and hectolitre weights (kg hL-1).Ozturk et al. (2008) reported that the cookie diametergave highly significant correlations with ZSV.The advent and utilization of molecular markers hasprovided powerful tools for elucidating the genetic ba-sis of quantitatively inherited traits. However, only afew studies have reported genetic loci that influenceZSV in wheat (Rousset et al. 2001; Kunert et al. 2007;1040ZHAO Liang et al.Sun et al. 2008). Rousset et al. (2001) reported that one strong QTL for ZSV was mapped on the long arm of chromosome 1A around Glu-A1. A distally located QTL for ZSV was mapped on chromosome arm 1BS, centered on the Gli-B1/Glu-B3 region. And a major QTL for ZSV, clearly corresponding to the Glu-D1 locus, was detected on chromosome arm 1DL. Kunert et al. (2007) found four putative QTLs for ZSV. Sun et al. (2008) identified three QTLs for ZSV in a F14 RIL derived from the cross between Chuan 35050 and Shannong 483.Additive effect QTLs were first identified and epi-static interactions among these additive effect QTLs were then estimated (Zanetti et al. 2001). However, this approach usually leaves out many QTLs that may have no additive effects but influence the trait only through epistatic interactions or QTL×environment in-teractions (QEs) (Ma et al. 2005, 2007; Rebetzke et al. 2007). Additive effect QTLs, epistatic QTLs, and QEs were detected using two-locus analyses in both the populations (Kulwal et al. 2005). Sometimes QTLs involved in such interactions contribute substantially to the total variation of a quantitative trait, and therefore should not be ignored. Further experimentation is needed to clarify whether the traits are also affected by epistatic and environment, and to dissect the genotype ×environment interaction effects at the molecular level. In this study, QTLs for ZSV were investigated based on the mixed linear model in a DH population across environments. The objective of this study was to com-prehensively characterize the genetic basis for ZSV of wheat in order to facilitate the future breeding of high-quality wheat varieties.MATERIALS AND METHODSMaterialsA population of 168 DH lines was produced from the cross between two Chinese wheat cultivars Huapei 3 (Hp3)/Yumai 57 (Ym57) and was used for the con-struction of a linkage map. The DH population and parents were kindly provided by Professor Yanhai, Henan Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Zhengzhou, China. Hp3 and Ym57 were registered by Henan Prov-ince of China in 2006 (Hai and Kang 2007) and by the state (China) in 2003 (Guo et al. 2004), respectively. The parents, planted over a large area in the Huang-Huai wheat region in China, differ in several agronomi-cally important traits as well as baking quality traits (Guo et al. 2004; Hai and Kang 2007).The field trials were conducted in three environments, at Tai’an (36.18°N, 117.13°E), Shandong Province, China, in 2005 and 2006, and at Suzhou (31.32°N, 120.62°E), Anhui Province, China, in 2006. The ex-perimental design followed a completely randomized block design with two replications at each location. In autumn 2005, all lines and parental lines were grown in 2 m long by three-row plots (25 cm apart); in autumn 2006, the lines were grown in 2 m long by four-row plots (25 cm apart). Suzhou and Tai’an differ in cli-mate and soil conditions. In Tai’an, there were differ-ences in temperature and soil conditions between the years 2005 and 2006. During the growing season, man-agement was in accordance with the local practice. The lines were harvested individually at maturity to prevent yield loss from over-ripening. Harvested grain samples were cleaned prior to conditioning and flour milling was performed in a mill (Quadrumat Senior, Brabender, Germany) to flour extraction rates of around 70%. Prior to milling, the hard, medium hard (mixtures of hard and soft wheat) and soft wheats were tempered to around 14, 15, and 16% moisture contents, respectively.Measurements of ZSVZeleny sedimentation volume was determined using AACC method 56-61A.Construction of the genetic linkage mapA genetic linkage map of DH population with 323 markers, including 284 SSR, 37 ESTs loci, 1 ISSR loci and 1 HMW-GS loci, was constructed. This linkage map covered a total length of 2485.7 cM with an aver-age distance of 7.67 cM between adjacent markers. Thirteen markers remained unlinked. These markers formed 24 linkage groups at LOD 4.0. The chromo-somal locations and the orders of the markers in the map were in accordance with the one reported for Triti-cum aestivum L. (Somers et al. 2004). The recom-mended map distance for genome wide QTL scanningDetection of QTLs with Additive Effects, Epistatic Effects, and QTL×Environment Interactions for Zeleny Sedimentation1041 was an interval length less than 10 cM (Doerge 2002).Thus the map was suitable for genome-wide QTL scan-ning in this study.Statistical analysisAnalysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out usingSPSS ver. 13.0 (SPSS, Chicago, USA). QTLs withadditive effects and epistatic effects as well as QEs inthe DH population were mapped by the softwareQTLNetwork ver. 2.0 (Yang and Zhu 2005) based on amixed linear model (Wang et al. 1999). Composite in-terval analysis was undertaken using forward-backwardstepwise multiple linear regression with a probabilityinto and out of the model of 0.05 and window size setat 10 cM. Significant thresholds for QTL detectionwere calculated for each data set using 1000 permuta-tions and a genome-wide error rate of 0.10 (suggestive)and 0.05 (significant). The final genetic model incor-porated significant additive effects and epistatic effectsas well as their environmental interactions.RESULTSPhenotypic variation for DH lines and parentsAs is shown in Fig.1, ZSV of Ym57 showed highervalues than ZSV of Hp3; the means of the ZSV fellbetween the two parent’s values. It expressed the ex-istence of the large transgressive segregation. ZSV seg-regated continuously and approximately fit normal dis-tributions with absolute values of both skewness andkurtosis less than 1.0, indicating that this trait was suit-able for QTL mapping.QTLs with additive effects and additive×environment (AE) interactionsFour QTLs with significant additive effects were iden-tified on chromosomes 1B, 1D, 5A, and 5D (Table 1and Fig.2). These QTLs explained from 2.66 to14.39% of the phenotypic variance. The Qzsv-1B had the most significant effect, accounting for 14.39% of the phenotypic variance. The Ym57 alleles at three loci, Qzsv-1B,Qzsv-1D, and Qzsv-5D, increased Fig. 1 Frequency distributions of ZSV in 168 DH lines derived from a cross of Hp3×Ym57 evaluated at three environments in the 2005 and 2006 cropping seasons. The means of trait values for the DH lines and both parents are indicated by arrows. Several statistics for the traits in the DH lines are shown on the right of each plot.Zeleny sedimentation volume (mL)2006 in SuzhouZeleny sedimentation volume (mL)2006 in Tai’anZeleny sedimentation volume (mL)2005 in Tai’anMean: 24.39SD: 5.45Range: 12.00-39.00Skewness: 0.171Kurtosis: -0.153 252015105No.ofDHlinesDH linesYm57Hp315.0020.0025.0030.0035.0040.00DH linesYm57Hp320.0030.0040.0050.0060.00252015105No.ofDHlines30DH linesYm57Hp320.0030.0040.002015105No.ofDHlinesMean: 24.39SD: 5.45Range: 12.00-39.00Skewness: 0.171Kurtosis: -0.153Mean: 24.39SD: 5.45Range: 12.00-39.00Skewness: 0.171Kurtosis: -0.1531042ZHAO Liang et al.Table 1 Estimated additive effects and additive ×environment (AE) interactions of QTLs for ZSV at three environments in the 2005 and 2006 cropping seasonsQTL Flanking-marker 1)Position (cM)2)F -value P A 3)H 2 (A, %)4)AE 1H 2 (AE 1, %)5)AE 2H 2 (AE 2, %)AE 3H 2 (AE 3, %)Qzsv -1B Xwmc412.2-Xcfe023.236.425.220.000-2.5214.39------Qzsv -1D Xwmc93-GluD161.915.910.000-1.988.93------Qzsv -5A Xbarc358.2-Xgwm18638.18.100.000 1.08 2.66------Qzsv -5DXcfd101-Xbarc32060.612.690.000-1.203.25---1.042.44--1)Flanking marker, the interval of F peak value for QTL.

The Hp3 allele increased ZSV at the Qzsv -5A by 1.08 mL, accounting for 2.66% of the phe-notypic variance. This suggested that alleles, which increased ZSV, were dispersed within the two parents,resulting in small differences of phenotypic values be-tween the parents and transgressive segregants among the DH population. The total additive QTLs detected for ZSV accounted for 29.23% of the phenotypic variance.One additive effect was involved in AE interactions (Table 1 and Fig.2). The Ym57 alleles at one locus,Qzsv -5D , increased the ZSV by 1.04 mL with corre-spondingly contributing 2.44% of the phenotypic variance.QTLs with epistasis effects and epistasis ×environment (AAE) interactionsFour pairs of epistatic QTLs were identified for ZSV,and were located on chromosomes 1A, 2A, 3A, 7A and 7D (Table 2 and Fig.2). These QTLs had correspond-ing contributions ranging from 0.64 to 6.79%. One pair of epistasis, occurring between the loci Qzsv -2A /Qzsv -7A , had the largest effect, which contributed ZSV of 1.73 mL and accounted for 6.79% of the phenotypic variance. The four pairs of epistatic QTLs explained 12.11% of the phenotypic variance. All the epistatic effects were non-main-effect QTLs.One pair of epistatic QTL was detected in AAE in-teractions for ZSV (Table 2 and Fig.2). The AAE ef-fects explained 2.33% of the phenotypic variance and this QTL, Qzsv3A.2/Qzsv7D.1, increased ZSV by 1.01mL owing to AAE effects, simultaneously the positive value means that the parent-type effect is greater than the recombinant-type effect.DISCUSSIONEpistatic effects and QTL ×environment interactions were important genetic basis for ZSV in wheatEpistasis, as an important genetic basis for complex traits, has been well demonstrated in recent QTL map-ping studies (Cao et al . 2001; Fan et al . 2005; Ma et al .2005, 2007). Ma et al . (2005) provided a strong evi-dence for the presence of epistatic effects on dough rheological properties in a wheat DH population. In the present study, four pairs of QTLs with epistatic ef-fects were detected for ZSV in three environments (Table 2 and Fig.2). The four pairs of epistatic QTLs explained 12.11% of the phenotypic variance.ZSV was predominantly influenced by the effects of genotype (Zhang et al . 2004, 2005), and in the present study, only one AE interaction and one AAE interaction were found. It is suggested that QTL ×environment interactions just play a minor role, but QTL ×environment interactions should not be ignored.ZSV and subunits of high molecular weight gluteninsSubunits of high molecular weight glutenins strongly influence wheat bread making quality. This study pro-vided a precise location of ZSV gene within the Xwmc 93 and GluD1 interval, which was designated Qzsv -1D and was located in the central region of a 2 cM interval.Also Rousset et al . (2001) detected a major QTL for sedimentation volume on 1DL, clearly corresponding to the Glu -D1 locus. Kunert et al . (2007) found that the SSR marker Xgwm642 on 1DL identified a QTLTable 2 Estimated epistatic effects and epistasis ×environment (AAE) interactions of QTLs for ZSV at three environments in the 2005 and 2006 cropping seasonsPosition Position H 2H 2H 2H 2(cM)(cM)(AA, %)2)(AAE 1, %)3)(AAE 2, %)(AAE 3, %)Qzsv -1A Xwmc278-Xbarc120.156.3Qzsv -3A.1Xbarc1177-Xbarc276.2196.3-0.94 1.99------Qzsv -2A Xgwm636-Xcfe6729.1Qzsv -7A Xbarc259-Xwmc59653.7-1.73 6.79------Qzsv -3A.2Xcfa2193-Xgwm155152.7Qzsv -7D.1Xcfd175-Xwmc14181.5-1.09 2.69 1.01 2.33----Qzsv -3A.2Xcfa2193-Xgwm155152.7Qzsv -7D.2Xgdm67-Xwmc634161.5-0.530.64------1)The epistatic effect.

And a major QTL, clearly correspond-ing to the Glu-D1 locus, was detected on chromosomearm 1DL. Correlation coefficient between Glu-1 scoreand sedimentation values was significant (r=0.553).There were significant correlations between sedimen-tation values and Glu-lAa,Glu-1Ac,Glu-Ba, and Glu-1Bcalleles, respectively (Kne et al. 1993). Thesedimentation values showed statistically significantassociations with the status of the Glu-A1 locus(Witkowski et al. 2008).In this study, the Qzsv-1D increased ZSV by 1.98mL, correspondingly contributing 8.93% of the pheno-typic variance. Barro et al. (2003) found that HMW-GS 1Ax1 increased the sedimentation value. In contrast,HMW-GS 1Dx5 drastically decreased in sedimentationvalue.In summary, four additive QTLs, four pairs of epi-static QTLs, and two QEs were detected for ZSV in168 DH lines derived from a cross Hp3×Ym57. Onemajor QTL,Qzsv-1B, was closely linked to Xwmc412.20.2cM and could account for 14.39% of the phenotypicvariation without any influence from the environment.Therefore, the Qzsv-1B could be used in MAS in wheatbreeding programs. The results showed that both ad-ditive and epistatic effects were important as a geneticbasis for ZSV, and were also sometimes subject to en-vironmental modifications.AcknowledgementsThis work was supported by the National Basic Re-search Program of China (2009CB118301), the NationalHigh-Tech Research and Development (863) Programof China (2006AA100101 and 2006AA10Z1E9), andthe Doctor Foundation of Shandong AgriculturalUniversity, China (23023).

Experimental investigation on capillary force of composite wick structure

Experimental investigation on capillary force of composite wick structure by IR thermal imaging cameraYong Tang,Daxiang Deng *,Longsheng Lu,Minqiang Pan,Qinghui WangSchool of Mechanical and Automotive Engineering,South China University of Technology,Wushan Road,Guangzhou 510640,Chinaa r t i c l e i n f o Article history:Received 1January 2009Received in revised form 3October 2009Accepted 19October 2009Keywords:Composite wick Meniscus Heat pipes Capillary forceIR thermal imaginga b s t r a c tA novel sintered–grooved composite wick structures has been developed for two-phase heat transfer devices.With ethanol as the working fluid,risen meniscus test is conducted to study the capillary force of wick structures.Infrared (IR)thermal imaging is used to identify and locate the liquid meniscus.The effects of sintered layer,V-grooves and powder size on capillary force are explored.The results show that the capillary force of composite wick structures is larger than that of grooved and sintered ones.Interac-tion wetting between groove and sintered powder happens during the liquid rise in composite wick,which provides an additional source of capillary force.It exhibits a variation of capillary force of compos-ite wicks with different powder size due to the difference of open pore size and quantity in sintered por-ous matrix.Ó2009Elsevier Inc.All rights reserved.1.IntroductionDevelopment of heat pipes,vapor chambers and capillary pumped loops (CPL)is motivated by the thermal management of electronic components.These heat transfer devices work via two-phase flow.By evaporation and condensation,heat is transported from one end to the other or spread to a large area.Two-phase heat transfer devices consist of a number of components,such as evap-orator,wick and condenser.The wick shows great effects on the heat transfer performances of these devices.Wick structures are generally grooved or sintered.Sintered wicks have large capillary force but low permeability,while grooved wicks have high perme-ability but small capillary force [1].Capillary force and permeabil-ity are somehow contradictory in a single wick.However,composite wicks can balance these two competing factors and im-prove heat transfer performances.Currently,researches have been focused on composite wick structures [2–4].Hwang et al.[2]ob-tained modulated composite wicks by making grooves over a thin uniform porous layer.The modulated composite wick improved heat transfer performance by providing extra cross-sectional area for enhanced axial capillary liquid flow and extra evaporation sur-face area.Wang and Catton [3]investigated a composite structure with a thin porous layer on the triangular groove.It was found that evaporation heat transfer in the composite structure was three to six times higher than that in the groove without a porous layer.Capillary force of wick plays the driving force of the circulation of working liquid in two-phase heat transfer rge capil-lary force makes these devices work well.Capillary force of wick has been determined mainly through two methods.One is the bub-ble point test [5].Pressurized gas is applied to one end of a wick saturated with liquid.With the pressure gradually increasing,the point that bubbles appear on the opposite end of the wick is re-corded for the capillary force.The other method is the risen menis-cus test [6,7].One end of a wick is dipped into the working liquid.Then the liquid level rises in the wick sample until the pressure on both sides of the meniscus equilibrates.Nowadays,the latter method has been widely used due to its convenience.Chen et al.[8]observed the liquid fronts in the inclined wick by optical micro-scope (OM)and CCD camera.Holley and Faghri [9]obtained the closed form solution of effective pore radius and permeability of wicks by sight and weight change.Nevertheless,visualization of the meniscus by sight may be not accurate because most of the working liquid is colorless and transparent.In the case of micro grooved or sintered wick structures,it is difficult to locate the meniscus.This problem may be solved with the technique of infra-red (IR)thermal imaging.IR thermal imaging can provide accurate and non-contact measurement of temperature field [10].It has been used for the test of thermal performance and heated flow of liquid film of two-phase heat transfer devices [11–15].Due to the infrared emissivity difference between wick samples and working liquid,the meniscus can be accurately located by IR ther-mal imaging.Thus,the rising of the wetted height driven by capil-lary force can be investigated.0894-1777/$-see front matter Ó2009Elsevier Inc.All rights

lists available at ScienceDirectExperimental Thermal and Fluid Sciencejournal homepage:www.else v i e r.c o m /l o c a t e /e t fsThe present study proposes a novel sintered–grooved compos-ite wick structure by covering a layer of sintered copper powderon micro V-grooves.With the risen meniscus test method,the cap-illary force of the wick is investigated by the visualization of IR thermal imaging camera.2.Experimental2.1.Fabrication of composite wick structureSintered–grooved composite wick structure is shown in Fig.1.Micro V-grooves were made in copper base with the thickness of 1.0mm.Then copper powders were sintered on the grooves.Dur-ing sintering,adhesion and mass transfer happened by the driving of surface tension.Different powder particles bonded together.Due to the same material of copper,powder particles and groove fins also partially bonded together,as seen in Fig.2.Thus,sintered–grooved composite wick formed.The copper powders (supplied by ACuPowder International,LLC,USA)are of irregular morphol-ogy,with purity of 99.3%,produced by water atomization method [16].To optimize the sintered powder size,four composite wick samples were made.A grooved sample without powder and a sin-tered sample without grooves were also studied for comparison.For the sintered sample,a 0.5mm thick powder layer was sintered on 1.0mm thick copper base .All the samples had the same dimen-sions,with length 100mm and width 10mm,as shown in Table 1.Copper powder layer was sintered at temperatures 950±10°C in a tube furnace for half an hour under a reduction stream of 10%hydrogen and 90%argon.2.2.Experimental apparatusAn apparatus of the risen meniscus test is set up to determine the capillary force of wick structures,as shown in Fig.3.It consists of vertically adjusting device,sample fixing device,reservoir,IR thermal imaging camera,glass cover with a hole for IR thermal imaging visualization,PLC controller and PC.The classical working liquid,ethanol,is used in the experiment.At first,test sample is fixed in vertical in the sample fixing device.Secondly,the sample moves down to dip into ethanol by the vertically adjusting device in a constant speed.The dipped length of samples in the liquid is 2mm.At last,IR camera records the meniscus rising process in 1min from the point that the sample just dips into ethanol.Ambi-ent temperature is 30°C.The glass cover is used to ensure the cir-cumstance airflow stable.The volatilization of ethanol is in a constant speed.Therefore,the difference between samples can be observed accurately.2.3.Meniscus locating method in IR thermal imagingA FLIR ThermaCAM SC3000IR camera was used with a thermal sensitivity of 0.02K at 30°C and an accuracy of 1%for tempera-tures below 150°C of the full scale.The back-side of the samples was painted black to provide a uniform emissivity.Due to the infrared emissivity difference between copper and ethanol,differ-ent temperature distributions between samples and ethanol were displayed in IR thermal images.The meniscus could be accurately located as follows.As shown in Fig.4,a measuring line was drawn along the sample from the fixing device to the dipping end.It stoodNomenclature D powder size,l mg gravity acceleration,m/s 2h capillary wetted height,mm h g depth of grooves,mmh t height of total grooves,mm K permeability,mm 2M mass of

point was added in the measuring line.As this point moved vertically along the measuring line,the vertical line moved along the temperature distribution curve until arriving at the inflection point.The position of this inflection point stood for the meniscus.The height result of the point could be cal-culated.Thus,the wetted height,h ,was obtained.Besides,the wet-ted height over time during the whole visualization process could be accurately obtained.Thus,the rising velocity of wetted height could be also studied.3.Analysis of liquid flow characteristic in composite wick structureDuring the risen meniscus test,working liquid rises in a wick.The following assumptions are given:(i)steady-state laminar flow in the wick,(ii)uniform saturation with liquid along the wetted length and (iii)neglecting inertial effects and evaporation of liquid.In the initial time after the composite wick dips into ethanol,the liquid rises along two channels,micro groove and sintered por-ous layer.In the groove channel,liquid flows along a straight line on the groove surface,whereas in the sintered porous channel,li-quid flows tortuously by the open pores in sintered porous layer.The friction resistance of liquid flow in groove is smaller than that in sintered porous layer.Therefore,the liquid rises faster in the groove channel than in the sintered porous layer.However,there are small voids which interconnect the groove and sintered porous layer (Fig.2).The liquid in the groove channel and sintered porous layer does not flow separately.There is an interaction effect be-tween these two rising channels,that is,the fast liquid in groove channel drags the slow liquid in sintered porous layer.By this interaction effect,the liquid in these two channels converges to-gether and a balanced rising velocity reaches between groove and sintered porous layer.We name this kind of flow in composite wick as interaction wetting.It is somewhat similar to the plate-particle interaction during water saturation in the channels with particles in contact with a plate of the same material,which was analyzed by Lechman [17].Due to the interaction wetting,the composite wick is completely saturated except the closed poresTable 1Samples code and specifications.Sample code Powder size,D mm Mass ofpowder,M g Thickness of wick,T mm Height of total

locating method of wick structure in IR images (sample:C110–140).192Y.Tang et al./Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science 34(2010)190–196in sintered porous layer.The interaction wetting repeats as the li-quid rises in wicks until a final equilibrium height reaches.As shown in Fig.5,the composite wick can be mainly divided into three parts for liquid flow,sintered porous zone,groove bot-tom zone and interaction wetting zone.Each flow zone provides a source of capillary force.Thus,we can obtain:D P cap ;com ¼D P cap ;sin þD P cap ;gro þD P cap ;int ð1Þwhere D P cap ,com is the capillary force of composite wicks,D P cap ,sin ,D P cap ,gro ,and D P cap ,int is defined to be the capillary force provided by sintered porous zone,groove bottom zone and interaction wet-ting zone,respectively.It should be noted that D P cap ,int is induced by the drag force of the fast liquid in groove,which acts on the slow liquid in sintered porous layer.4.Results and discussionsFor the rise of liquid during the risen meniscus test,capillary force of the wicks,D P cap ,plays the driving force.The total pressure loss,D P total ,plays the flow resistance,which consists of two parts,friction pressure loss and hydrostatic pressure loss,as follows:D P total ¼l e K h d hd tþq ghð2Þwhere l is the viscosity of working liquid,e is the porosity of wick structure,K is the permeability of wick structure,h is the wettedheight,d his the rising velocity of the wetted height,q is the liquid density,g is the gravitational acceleration.Because of the neglect of inertial effects,these are the only source of pressure change dur-ing the liquid rise.Thus,capillary force is equal to the total pressure loss:D P cap ¼l e h d hþq ghð3Þtherefore,the capillary force of different wicks can be compared byh and d hof liquid rise.For different wicks during the same test time,the sample with larger wetted height and rising velocity has larger capillary force.4.1.Effect of sintered layer on capillary forceAs can be seen in Fig.6,the liquid in all samples rose quickly at the early time of the rise process.As the wetted height increased,the rising velocity of the wetted height reduced -pared with the composite samples,the grooved sample had higher rising velocity in the first 15s.Without sintered powder in grooves,the friction resistance of liquid flow was small.Ethanol rose very fast in the grooves.The wetted height reached 30mm at 15s and the equilibrium height was obtained at 30s.After that the meniscus did not rise.While in the composite samples,the meniscus rose continuously for a longer time than grooved wick.The equilibrium height had not yet been obtained at the end of one minute.Fig.7shows the meniscus rising process of a compos-ite wick by IR thermal images.At the end of the test time,the wet-ted heights of all the four composite samples were larger than grooved wick.It can be concluded that composite wicks had larger capillary force than grooved one.This can be attributed to the anal-ysis in Wang’s report [3].Capillary force can be also obtained by the Laplace–Young equation as defined below:D P cap ¼2r r effð4Þwhere r is the surface tension of liquid and r eff is the effective cap-illary radius.As the sintered layer covered the grooves,a lot of small menisci formed in the sintered layer.The effective capillary radius decreased from the radius of big meniscus of the groove in grooved wick to the radius of small menisci in the sintered layer in compos-ite wick.Thus,from Eq.(4),the capillary force of composite wicks was larger than that of grooved one.Meanwhile,as analyzed in Sec-tion 3,from Eq.(1),sintered powder layer and interaction wetting provided two additional important portions of capillary force for composite wick.Thus,composite wicks have larger capillary force than grooved one.4.2.Effect of V-grooves on capillary forceA sintered sample,which has the same powder size with com-posite sample (80–110l m),was tested for comparison.The result was shown in Fig.8.During the first 10s,the wetted height andtheFig.5.Schematic of three liquid flow zones in a compositewick.Fig.6.Effects of sintered layer and powder size on wetted height of wicks.Y.Tang et al./Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science 34(2010)190–196193rising velocity were almost equal for both sintered and composite sample.It is due to that the capillary force difference between these two samples was small.Sintered porous layer in both wicks provided large capillary force for liquid rise.As the wetted height grew,the rising velocity reduced gradually.During this time,the capillary force difference between these two samples played an important role in liquid rise.Results show that the wetted height and the rising velocity of composite sample were larger than thatof sintered sample after 10s.It resulted from that the groove bot-tom zone and interaction wetting zone provided additional sources of capillary force for composite wick.Besides of the capillary force provided by sintered porous layer,the driving force of groove bot-tom zone and the drag force in interaction wetting zone increased the total capillary force of composite wicks.Thus,the capillary force of composite wick is a little larger than that of sintered wick.4.3.Effect of powder size on capillary force of composite wicks Experimental results in Fig.6shows that the wetted height of sample C80–110is the largest.Following was C110–140and C40–60.The smallest was C60–80.The rising velocity generally fol-lowed a similar order.Thus,the composite sample with the 80–110l m powder had the largest capillary force.It could be found that the capillary force of composite samples with large powder size (C80–110and C110–140)was larger than that with small powder size (C40–60and C60–80).This is mainly due to the porous matrix difference of composite wicks.As shown in Table 1,identi-cal porosity was obtained for these four samples.According to the definition of porosity [18],the volume sum of open pores and closed pores equaled for the samples,due to the same volume of the sintered layer in these four composite wicks.However,as shown in Fig.9,the open pore size and quantity varied,which strongly affected the liquid flow in wick structures.In porous ma-trix,only open pores could provide channels for liquid flow.Closed pores can not be saturated.Due to the existence of closed pores,li-quid would turn to flow by the adjacent open pores.Thus,theflow-Fig.7.IR images of the meniscus rising process of composite wick structure during one minute (sample:C110–140).parison between composite wick and sintered wick with the same powder size (80–110l m),wetted height versus time.194Y.Tang et al./Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science 34(2010)190–196ing channels became longer and the friction resistance of liquid flow increased.For the samples with small powder size (samples C40–60,C60–80),the voids among powder particles were apt to be filled or covered by other particles during sintering.A lot of closed pores existed.While for the samples with large powder size (samples C80–110,C110–140),there were larger voids among dif-ferent particles than that with small powder size.They could not be filled or covered by other particles due to their large size.More open pores formed.The open pores were bigger and they were eas-ier to interconnect with each other.Thus,there were more flowing channels for the liquid rise in sintered porous layer.The friction resistance of liquid flow was smaller.The liquid rose higher and faster.As a result,composite samples with large powder size have larger capillary force than that with small powder size.However,it was found in the experiments that capillary force does not increase linearly with powder size.It may be attributed to the difference of the interaction wetting effect.For the sample with large powder size (C80–110,C110–140),the interaction effect in sample C80–110with comparatively smaller powder size may be a little stronger in the liquid rise process,and the liquid in grooves may provide a little larger drag force acting on liquid in sintered porous layer than sample C110–140.Thus,the capillary force of sample C80–110is a little larger than sample C110–140.Similarly for the sample with small powder size,sample C40–60has slightly larger capillary force than sample C60–80.Other stud-ies,such as theoretical verification of powder size and other parameters’effects on interaction wetting,are still required in the future work.5.ConclusionsSintered–grooved composite wick has been presented for two-phase heat transfer devices.IR thermal imaging camera was usedin the risen meniscus test of capillary parison of the wetted height and rising velocity among composite,grooved and sintered wicks was conducted.Four composite wicks with different powder size ranged from 40–60l m to 110–140l m were tested.The conclusion can be summarized as follows:(1)For the infrared emissivity difference between liquid andsolid at a given temperature,the liquid meniscus in a wick can be accurately located by IR thermal images,including grooved,sintered and composite wicks.(2)Interaction wetting between groove and sintered powderhappens during the liquid rise,and composite wick can be mainly divided into three parts for liquid flow,sintered por-ous zone,groove bottom zone and interaction wetting zone.Each flow zone provides a source of capillary pos-ite wicks have larger capillary force than grooved and sin-tered ones.(3)Composite wicks with large powder size provide larger cap-illary force than that with small powder size.Friction resis-tance difference of liquid flow exists due to the variation in open pore size and quantity in different porous matrix of composite wicks.But the capillary force varies nonlinearly with the powder size.The optimal powder size of composite wick is suggested to be 80–110l m.Future work is needed for theoretically modeling of the liquid flow in composite wicks.Besides,theoretical analysis of powder size and other parameters’effect on interaction wetting and capil-lary force will be carried out.AcknowledgementsThis work is financially supported by the National Natural Sci-ence Foundation of China,Project No.U0834002andNo.Fig.9.SEM photograph of sintered porous matrix of composite samples

Respiratory Drug Delivery 2014 – Cooper et al.A QbD Method DevelopmentApproach for the Ex-actuatorParticle Size Distribution (PSD)Determination of pMDIsby Laser DiffractionAndy Cooper,1 Chris Blatchford,1and Stephen Stein213M Drug Delivery Systems Ltd, Loughborough,Leicestershire,UK23M Drug Delivery Systems, St. Paul, MN, USAKEYWORDS: pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI),quality by design (QbD), laser diffraction,method development, particle sizeIntRODuCtIOnThe aerodynamic particle size distribution (APSD) is a critical quality attribute (CQA) of orally inhaled and nasal drug products (OINDPs). Cascade impactor methodology [1] is typically used to determine this during development and registered product testing. However, this is a time consuming analysis which makes it impractical as a rapid screening tool for early phase develop-ment and investigations. Laser diffraction (LD) analysis of the ex-actuator plume has previously been proposed as an alternative [2] for geometric particle size distribution (PSD) determination. This is considered appropriate as the measured ex-actuator PSD would be influenced by the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) within the formulation in three ways. One, the dry API par-ticles would be present in the actuation plume after atomization. Two, droplet formation during atomization may be influenced by the particle size of the API [3]. Lastly, the API concentration will influence the number of particles within each droplet and hence the measured PSD [2, 4]. This publication will focus on the specific considerations for method development/validation of this methodology [5-11], using a quality by design (QbD) approach [11, 12]. Data from these methods have the potential to correlate with APSD data [3, 14], as many variables are common to both techniques [15], despite the difference in the principle of measurement (geometric versus aerodynamic).321322QbD Method Development for the Ex-actuator PSD of pMDIs by Laser Diffraction – Cooper et al.MEthODOLOgYMeasurements were made with a Sympatec™ instrument, consisting of a Helos (Helium-Neon Laser Optical System)/BF™ laser diffraction sensor with the Inhaler™ dry dispersion accessory (See instrument settings in Table 1). The pMDI unit is manually actuated into the Inhaler accessory, allowing the actuation plume to pass through the laser (He/Ne @ 633nm) where light is scattered and then focused by a chosen lens onto a detector array. The detector consists of 31 concentric ring elements. The innermost element is referred to as R1 and the outermost element as R31. Scattered light registered on elements R1-R6 is discounted due to beam steer [16]. The signals from all the other detector elements are combined and a PSD is inferred from the scattering pattern based on the chosen optical model, after subtraction of background levels.table 1.Sympatec™ instrument settings.RESuL tS AnD DISCuSSIOnThere are multiple variables which can influence laser diffraction data, as shown in Figure 1. Aside from the product related factors, risk assessments of the other variables are required. While some parameters have no impact if they are suitably controlled (e.g., cleaning), other more critical parameters require experimenta-tion to determine their effects (e.g., trigger conditions). The Inhaler accessory was chosen since the droplets are entrained in an air flow which dilutes the sample and reduces potential artefacts such as velocity bias and geometric effects [15].Figure 1. Fishbone diagram of sources of variability for laser diffraction data.Respiratory Drug Delivery 2014 – Cooper et al. 323Copyright © 2014 VCUThe length of cylinder used for the Inhaler accessory must be optimized. This dictates thedistance between the point of actuation and the laser beam. The optical concentration (OC) must be sufficient for sensitivity purposes but not too high to cause multiple scattering. Data are shown in Figure 2A and 2B. The similarity in OC for the active and placebo shows that the majority of light did not reach the central detector due to the propellant shifting the laser beam (beam steer). The median particle size for the placebo is decreased with increased distance. This is likely due to the increased evaporation of co-solvent, rather than an indication of multiple scattering. This signal observed for the placebo led to the refractive index of the co-solvent being chosen for the method. Although the OC decreased with increased firing distance due to reduced beam steer, the active PSD remains reasonably consistent [<10% shift in d(v, 0.5)] and is considered to be real. A slight increase in active median particle size is consistent with reduced interference from the co-solvent and therefore the long cylinder is considered to be the most accurate.Figure 2. A: Optical concentration. B: d(v, 0.5) data for high strength active and placebo for various cylinder lengths.The selection of sampling criteria (trigger conditions) is critical [4] and they can alsointeract with the method of shaking and firing, particularly for a suspension pMDI. Design experi-ments are crucial for method optimization and for proving method robustness. Parameters, which are selected via a suitable risk assessment, are evaluated over an appropriate design space, as shownin Figure 3.324QbD Method Development for the Ex-actuator PSD of pMDIs by Laser Diffraction – Cooper et al.Figure 3. PSD data for sample preparation DoE – low strength active.Validation data for this method are shown in Table 2. Validation was performed on both high and low strength actives. RSD values are higher than those typically observed for a laser diffraction method for an API [17], however this is likely due to the inherent product variability (See Figure 1) – measurements are made of volatile droplets with a wide range of velocities contributing to differing amounts of evaporation per droplet. Increased variability is therefore expected. However, one important factor to limit variability is humidity level [4].table 2.Method validation data.This validated method has been used to try and understand trends in APSD data. The data shown in Table 3 shows that the PSD is influenced by the temperature of the product, which has similar trends to those observed for ACI data in the literature [18]. The vapor pressure of the formulation increases with temperature, which results in atomization of smaller droplets, which will contain fewer drug particles, hence a decrease in PSD. Faster propellant/co-solvent evaporation, due to the increased temperature, will also result in a decrease in PSD.table 3.PSD data for a range of temperatures (n = 6 at each condition) – high strength active.Respiratory Drug Delivery 2014 – Cooper et al. 325COnCLuSIOnSA QbD approach to development of laser diffraction (LD) methodology to determine the PSD ex-actuator from a pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI) is presented. Robust and repeatable data were obtained, however this is inherently more variable than methodology for the PSD deter-mination of the API. The LD methodology can be used to understand trends in cascade impaction data – the industry standard, but more time consuming, methodology for APSD determination.REFEREnCES1.

Herein Taratuta et al.w13x studied the effects of salts and pH on the cloud-point temperature of lysozyme.Broide et al.w14x subsequently meas-ured the cloud-point temperature and crystalliza-tion temperature for lysozyme as a function of salt type and concentration.From these works the cloud-point temperature was found to be typically 15–458C below the crystallization temperature. Furthermore,Muschol and Rosenberger w15x deter-mined the metastable coexistence curves for lyso-zyme through cloud-point measurements,and suggested a systematic approach to promote pro-tein crystallization.In general,an effective way to determine the strength of protein interactions is to study temperature-induced phase transitions that occur in concentrated protein solutions.Liquid–liquid phase separation can be divided into two stages w11x:(1)the local separation stage at which the separation proceeds in small regions and local equilibrium is achieved rapidly;and(2) the coarsening stage at which condensation of these small domains proceeds slowly to reduce the loss of interface free energy w16x.The coexisting liquid phases both remain supersaturated but differ widely in protein concentration.The effect of a metastable liquid–liquid phase separation on crystallization remains ambiguous w17x.Molecular dynamics simulations and analyt-ical theory predict that the phase separation will affect the kinetics and the mechanisms of protein crystal nucleation w18x.tenWolde and Frenkel w19x have demonstrated that the free energy barrier for crystal nucleation is remarkably reduced at the critical point of liquid–liquid phase separation, thus in general,after liquid–liquid phase separa-tion,crystallization occurs much more rapidly than in the initial solution,which is typically too rapid for the growth of single crystal with low defect densities w15x.The determination of the location of liquid–liquid phase separation curve is thus crucial for efficiently identifying the optimum solution conditions for growing protein crystals. Microcalorimetry has the potential to be a useful tool for determining:(1)the metastable-labile zone boundary;(2)the temperature-dependence of pro-tein solubility in a given solvent;and(3)the crystal-growth rates as a function of supersatura-tion w20x.Microcalorimeters can detect a power signal as low as a few microwatts whereas standard calorimeters detect signals in the milliwatt range. Because of this greater sensitivity,samples with small heat effects can be analyzed.In addition, microcalorimetry has the advantage of being fast, non-destructive to the protein and requiring a relatively small amount of material.The present work is concerned with the analysis of the transient heat signal from microcalorimeter to yield liquid–liquid phase separation information for lysozyme solutions at pH4.8.To further examine the role of salt and additive on interprotein interactions, cloud-point temperature T has been determinedcloudexperimentally as a function of the concentrations of salt,protein and glycerol.2.Materials and methods2.1.MaterialsSix times crystallized lysozyme was purchased from Seikagaku Kogyo,and used without further107J.Lu et al./Biophysical Chemistry 109(2004)105–112purification.All other chemicals used were of reagent grade,from Sigma Chemical Co.2.2.Preparation of solutionsSodium acetate buffer (0.1M )at pH 4.8was prepared with ultrafiltered,deionized water.Sodi-um azide,at a concentration of 0.05%(w y v ),was added to the buffer solution as an antimicrobial agent.Protein stock solution was prepared by dissolving protein powder into buffer.To remove undissolved particles,the solution was centrifuged in a Sigma centrifuge at 12000rev.y min for 5–10min,then filtered through 0.22-m m filters (Mil-lex-VV )into a clean sample vial and stored at 48C for further experiments.The concentration of protein solution was determined by measuring the absorbance at 280nm of UV spectroscopy (Shi-madzu UV-2550),with an extinction coefficient of 2.64ml y (mg cm )w 21x .Precipitant stock solution was prepared by dissolving the required amount of sodium chloride together with additive glycerol into buffer.The pH of solutions was measured by a digital pH meter (Mettler Toledo 320)and adjusted by the addition of small volumes of NaOH or HAc solution.2.3.Measurement of solubilitySolubility of lysozyme at various temperatures and precipitant y additive concentrations was meas-ured at pH 4.8in 0.1M acetate buffer.Solid–liquid equilibrium was approached through both crystallization and dissolution.Dissolving lasted 3days,while the period of crystallization was over 2weeks.The supernatant in equilibrium with a macroscopically observable solid was then filtered through 0.1-m m filters (Millex-VV ).The concen-tration of diluted supernatant was determined spec-troscopically and verified by refractive meter(Kruss)until refractive index remained unchanged ¨at equilibrium state.Solubility of each sample was measured in duplicate.2.4.Differential scanning microcalorimetry Calorimetric experiments were performed with a micro-differential scanning calorimeter with anultra sensitivity,micro-DSC III,from Setaram SA,France.The micro-DSC recorded heat flow in microwatts vs.temperature,thus can detect the heat associated with phase transition during a temperature scan.The sample made up of equal volumes of protein solution and precipitant solu-tion was filtered through 0.1-m m filters to remove dust particles further.To remove the dissolved air,the sample was placed under vacuum for 3min while stirring at 500rev.y min by a magnetic stirrer.The degassed sample was placed into the sample cell of 1.0ml,and a same concentration NaCl solution was placed into the reference cell.The solutions in the micro-DSC were then cooled at the rate of 0.28C y min.After every run,the cells were cleaned by sonicating for 10–15min in several solutions in the following order:deionized water,methanol,ethanol,acetone,1M KOH and finally copious amounts of deionized water.This protocol ensured that lysozyme was completely removed from the cells.The cells were then placed in a drying oven for several hours.The rubber gaskets were cleaned in a similar manner except acetone and 1M KOH were omitted and they were allowed to dry at low temperature.3.Results and discussionA typical micro-DSC scanning experiment is shown in Fig.1.The onset of the clouding phe-nomenon is very dramatic and easily detected.The sharp increase in the heat flow is indicative of a liquid–liquid phase separation process producing a latent heat.This is much consistent with many recent investigations of the liquid–liquid phase separation of lysozyme from solution w 22,23x .In fact,such a liquid–liquid phase separation is a phase transition with an associated latent heat of demixing.In this work,the cloud-point tempera-tures at a variety of lysozyme,NaCl and glycerol concentrations are determined by the micro-DSC at the scan rate of 128C y h.3.1.Effect of protein concentrationIn semilogarithmic Fig.2we plot the solid–liquid and liquid–liquid phase boundaries for lyso-108J.Lu et

consistent with those from laser light scattering and DSC by Darcy and Wiencek w 23x ,with difference averaging at approx-imately 0.88C.This figure demonstrates that liquid–liquid phase boundary is far below solid–liquid phase boundary,which implies that the liquid–liquid phase separation normally takes place in a highly metastable solution.In addition,cloud-point temperature T increases with the cloud concentration of protein.3.2.Effect of salt concentrationFig.3shows how cloud-point temperature changes as the concentration of NaCl is varied from 2.5to 7%(w y v ).The buffer is 0.1M acetate (pH 4.8);the protein concentration is fixed at 50mg y ml.Over the entire range of salt concentrations studied,the cloud-point temperature strongly depends on the ionic strength and increases monotonically with the concentration of NaCl.Crystallization is driven by the difference in chemical potential of the solute in solution and in the crystal.The driving force can be simplified as w 24xf sy Dm s kT ln C y C (1)Ž.eq109J.Lu et al./Biophysical Chemistry 109(2004)105–112Fig.4.The driving force required by liquid–liquid phase sep-aration as a function of the concentration of sodium chloride,50mg y ml lysozyme solution,0.1M acetate buffer,pH 4.8.In the same way,we plot the driving force,f ,required by liquid–liquid phase separation as a function of the concentration of sodium chloride in Fig.4.At the moderate concentration of sodium chloride,the driving force required by liquid–liquid phase separation is higher than that at low or high salt concentration.As shown in Fig.3,with NaCl concentration increasing,the cloud-point temperature increases,which is in accord with the results of Broide et al.w 14x and Grigsby et al.w 25x .It is known that protein interaction is the sum of different potentials like electrostatic,van der Waals,hydrophobic,hydration,etc.The liquid–liquid phase separation is driven by a net attraction between protein molecules,and the stronger the attraction,the higher the cloud-point temperature.Ionic strength is found to have an effect on the intermolecular forces:attractions increase with ionic strength,solubility decreases with ionic strength,resulting in the cloud-point temperature increases with ionic strength.It is worth noting that,the effect of ionic strength on cloud-point temperature depends strongly on the specific nature of the ions w 13x .Kosmotropic ions bind adjacent water molecules more strongly than water binds itself.When akosmotropic ion is introduced into water,the entro-py of the system decreases due to increased water structuring around the ion.In contrast,chaotropes bind adjacent water molecules less strongly than water binds itself.When a chaotrope is introduced into water,the entropy of the system increases because the water structuring around the ion is less than that in salt-free water.This classification is related to the size and charge of the ion.At high salt concentration ()0.3M ),the specific nature of the ions is much more important w 25x .The charges on a protein are due to discrete positively and negatively charged surface groups.In lysozyme,the average distance between thesecharges is approximately 10Aw 26x .As to the salt ˚NaCl used as precipitant,Na is weakly kosmo-q tropic and Cl is weakly chaotropic w 27x .At low y NaCl concentrations,as the concentration of NaCl increases,the repulsive electrostatic charge–charge interactions between protein molecules decrease because of screening,resulting in the increase of cloud-point temperature.While at high NaCl con-centrations,protein molecules experience an attrac-tion,in which differences can be attributed to repulsive hydration forces w 14,25x .That is,as the ionic strength increases,repulsive electrostatic or hydration forces decrease,protein molecules appear more and more attractive,leading to higher cloud-point temperature.At various salt concentra-tions,the predominant potentials reflecting the driving force for liquid–liquid phase separation are different.Fig.4shows that the driving force,f ,is parabolic with ionic strength,while Grigsby et al.w 25x have reported that f y kT is linear with ionic strength for monovalent salts.The possible reasons for that difference include,their model is based on a fixed protein concentration of 87mg y ml,which is higher than that used in our study,yet f y kT is probably dependent on protein concentration,besides the solutions at high protein and salt concentrations are far from ideal solutions.3.3.Effect of glycerolFig.5compares

temperature as a function of the concentration of glycerol.The cloud-point temperature is decreased as the addi-tion of glycerol.In semilogarithmic Fig.7we plot the solid–liquid and liquid–liquid phase boundaries at dif-ferent glycerol concentrations for lysozyme in0.1 M acetate buffer,5%NaCl,pH4.8,for a range of protein concentration.This figure demonstrates that liquid–liquid and solid–liquid phase bounda-ries in the presence of glycerol are below those in absence of glycerol,and the region for growing crystals is narrowed when glycerol is added. Glycerol has the property of stabilizing protein structure.As a result,if crystallization occurs over a long period of time,glycerol is a useful candidate to be part of the crystallization solvent and is often included for this purpose w28x.In addition,glycerol is found to have an effect on the intermolecular forces:repulsions increase with glycerol concentra-tion w29x.Our experiment results of solubility and cloud-point temperature can also confirm the finding.The increased repulsions induced by glycerol can be explained by a number of possible mecha-nisms,all of which require small changes in the protein or the solvent in its immediate vicinity.The addition of glycerol decreases the volume of protein core w30x,increases hydration and the size of hydration layer at the particle surface w31,32x. In this work,we confirm that glycerol shifts the solid–liquid and liquid–liquid phase boundaries. The effect of glycerol on the phase diagram strong-111 J.Lu et al./Biophysical Chemistry109(2004)105–112ly depends on its concentration and this canprovide opportunities for further tuning of nuclea-tion rates.4.ConclusionsGrowing evidence suggests protein crystalliza-tion can be understood in terms of an order ydisorder phase transition between weakly attractiveparticles.Control of these attractions is thus keyto growing crystals.The study of phase transitionsin concentrated protein solutions provides one witha simple means of assessing the effect of solutionconditions on the strength of protein interactions.The cloud-point temperature and solubility datapresented in this paper demonstrate that salt andglycerol have remarkable effects on phase transi-tions.The solid–liquid and liquid–liquid bounda-ries can be shifted to higher or lower temperaturesby varying ionic strength or adding additives.Ourinvestigation provides further information upon therole of glycerol used in protein crystallization.Glycerol can increase the solubility,and decreasethe cloud-point temperature,which is of benefit totuning nucleation and crystal growth.In continuingstudies,we will explore the effects of other kindsof additives like nonionic polymers on phasetransitions and nucleation rates.Much more theo-retical work will be done to fully interpret ourexperimental results.AcknowledgmentsThis work is supported by the grant from theNational Natural Science Foundation of China(No.20106010).The authors also thank Professor J.M.Wiencek(The University of Iowa)for

2007年诺贝尔物理学奖2007年物理学奖,由两位物理学家分享,他们是法国的艾尔伯·费尔(Albert Fert)和德国的皮特·克鲁伯格(Peter Grünberg)。
他们于1988年,各自独立地发现了巨磁电阻效应,极大地提高了电脑硬盘的数据存储量。
艾尔伯·费尔(Albert Fert,1938—),出生于法国的卡尔卡松。
1962年,费尔在巴黎高等师范学院获得数学和物理硕士学位。
1970年,费尔从巴黎第十一大学获得物理学博士学位,并留校任教。
费尔从1970年到1995年一直在巴黎第十一大学固体物理实验室工作,后任研究小组组长。
1995年至今则担任国家科学研究中心-Thales集团联合物理小组科学主管。
1988年,费尔发现巨磁电阻效应,同时他对自旋电子学作出过许多贡献。
皮特·克鲁伯格(Peter Grünberg,1939—2018),出生于德国。
从1959年到1963年,克鲁伯格在法兰克福约翰-沃尔夫冈-歌德大学学习物理,1962年获得中级文凭,1969年在达姆施塔特技术大学获得博士学位。
1988年,克鲁伯格在尤利西研究中心研究并发现巨磁电阻效应。
1992年被任命为科隆大学兼任教授。
2004年在研究中心工作32年后退休,但仍继续工作,直到2018年逝世。
巨磁电阻效应是指当铁磁材料(Ferromagnetic)和非磁性金属(Non-Magnetic Metal)层交替组合成的材料,在既使微弱的磁场作用下铁磁层的电阻突然巨幅下降的现象。
特别值得注意的是,如果相邻材料中铁磁层的磁化方向平行的1时候,电阻会变得很低;而当铁磁层的磁化方向相反的时候电阻则会变得很大。
电阻值的这种变化是由于不同自旋的电子在单层磁化材料中的散射性质不同而造成的。
早在1988年,费尔和克鲁伯格就各自独立发现了这一特殊现象:非常弱小的磁场变化就能导致磁性材料发生非常显著的电阻变化。

have recently attracted attention as potential Li-ion battery cathode materi-als due to their lower toxicity,lower cost and better chemical and thermal stability,when compared to the currently used LiCoO2.The three-dimensional framework of an olivine is stabilized by the strong covalent bonds between oxygen ions and the P5+resulting in PO43−tetrahedral polyanions[1].As a consequence,olivine lithium metal phosphate materials do not undergo a structural re-arrangement during lithiation and de-lithiation.This means that they do not experience the capac-ity fade during cycling suffered by lithium transition metal oxides such as LiCoO2,LiNiO2,LiMnO2and LiMn2O4.This is attributed to structural rearrangements caused during lithiation and de-lithiation.Lithium manganese phosphate has a

slow lithium diffusion kinetics within the grains and the low intrinsic electronic conductivity[3,4].An approach to improve the rate performance of the olivine material is to min-imize the particle size[5,6].This reduces the diffusion path length for lithium ions in the cathode material and also creates a large contact area with conductive additives such as carbon [7–9].Delacourt et al.[10]synthesized100nm diameter particles of LiMnPO4by precipitation,which enhanced the reversible capacity to70mAh g−1at C/20from only35mAh g−1for1m diameter particles.Yonemura et al.[4]reached150mAh g−1of discharge capacity at C/100with small particles,close to the theoretical capacity of170mAh g−1.Thus,it is evident that particle size is critical in determining useful lithium capac-ity and charge/discharge rates[11–14].So far,the production of mesoparticulate LiMPO4(M=Fe,Mn)remains a challenge and only a few groups have successfully produced materials of appropriate dimensions to yield the desired electrochemi-cal performance in lithium ion batteries.The sol–gel synthesis technique offers a convenient means of producing particles of small size from homogeneous mixing of reagents on an atomic scale.In this paper we report the electrochemical performance0378-7753/$–see front matter©2007Elsevier B.V.All rights reserved.

densities.2.ExperimentalLiMnPO4powder was prepared by a sol–gel method using lithium acetate dihydrate,manganese acetate tetrahydrate and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate as precursors.The starting materials were dissolved in distilled water at room temperature and glycolic acid was used as a chelating agent.The pH of the resulting solution was adjusted to below4by the addition of con-centrated HNO3.This solution was then heated to60–75◦C to obtain a gel and the latter was dried overnight at120◦C before being heated for5h at350◦C under air.The powder as pro-duced was then calcined at different incremental temperatures (450–800◦C)for3h in air.The crystal structure of the resulting powder was exam-ined by X-ray diffraction(XRD)using Cu K␣radiation and a2θstep of0.04◦.The surface area of the samples before and after ball milling was measured by nitrogen adsorption using the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller(BET)model.Particle size distribution was measured by laser diffraction(Malvern Master-sizer).The morphology and the particle size were investigated withfield-emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM, Philips XL30FEG).After calcination,the LiMnPO4powder was dry ball-milled(RETSCH PM4000)with20wt%of acety-lene black for4h to obtain a carbon–LiMnPO4(C–LiMnPO4) composite.Electrodes for electrochemical testing were pre-pared by tape casting a N-methyl pyrrolidone(NMP)slurry of the C–LiMnPO4composite(90wt%)with poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVdF)binder(5wt%)and acetylene black(5wt%) on an aluminum current collector.After drying at120◦C under vacuum,the electrodes were compressed into23mm Ødisks with a thickness of27–41m,the active material loading being1.45–3.7mg cm−2.The cells were assembled in Swagelok TMfittings using Li metal foil as the counter elec-trode with a microporous polymer separator(Celgard2400TM) and liquid electrolyte mixtures containing1M LiPF6in a solvent mixture of propylene carbonate(PC),ethlylene carbon-ate(EC)and dimethyl carbonate(DMC)(1:1:3by volume). The electrochemical properties of LiMnPO4electrodes were measured by galvanostatic charge/discharge and cyclic voltam-metry using an Arbin BT2000electrochemical measurement system.3.ResultsThe crystal phase of our samples was identified from the pow-der XRD measurements to be LiMnPO4with an ordered olivine structure indexed by orthorhombic Pnmb powder prepared with an orthorhombic phase.XRD data for samples synthesized at different calcination reaction temperatures is shown in Fig.1. The olivine phase was formed at a temperature as low as350◦C even though the peak intensity was very low.The peak inten-sity increased with reaction temperature,indicating improved crystallization and particle growth.The mean particle size cal-culated from BET data,D BET(shown in Fig.2),demonstrates Fig.1.XRD diffraction patterns of the powders annealed at(a)350◦C for5h, (b)450◦C for3h,(c)520◦C for3h and(d)570◦C for3h.The᭹labeled peaks indicate an impurity phase(Li3PO4).that the average particle size increases dramatically between 600and800◦C.The powders calcinated at temperatures below 600◦C maintain a smaller D BET,of under200nm and have a well-crystallized olivine phase of LiMnPO4.The powders showed a certain degree of agglomeration with a median volume diameter D v50from the laser diffraction of around 4m.The LiMnPO4powder was dry ball-milled with20wt% of acetylene black for4h to obtain a carbon–LiMnPO4 (C–LiMnPO4)composite.During ball milling the primary par-ticle size was reduced.For a compound calcined at600◦C with an initial specific surface area of8.0m2g−1,3h of ball milling increased the BET value to18.5m2g−1(Fig.4).A particle size distribution(PSD)analysis shows an agglomeration of our mate-rial.The as-calcined LiMnPO4gave a mono-modal PSDwith Fig.2.Variation in primary particle size,D BET,of LiMnPO4as a function of annealing temperature.T.Drezen et al./Journal of Power Sources174(2007)949–953951Fig.3.Variation of the specific surface area of a LiMnPO4calcined at600◦C and volume particle size distribution(a)of the as-calcined LiMnPO4,(b)after 3h of ball milling and(c)after24h of ball milling.agglomerates of4m(D v50).PSDs of LiMnPO4with milling times from15min to24h showed bi-modal size distribution. The mean diameter decreased until3h of ball milling but then increased with further milling time(insets Fig.3).This indi-cates that the primary particles of about100nm diameter are aggregated giving a D v50of2.5m after3h milling.The pri-mary particle size is decreased by planetary ball milling but the agglomeration becomes more marked as ball milling time increases.SEM was applied to investigate the particle size and the mor-phology of materials calcinated at520,600and700◦C.As shown in Fig.4(a),the SEM images of powders calcinated at 520◦C,show small and uniform particle dimensions.In Fig.4(c) particles synthesized at600◦C are clearly larger than Fig.4(a) and the particle size distribution is broad.Reversible capacities of the C–LiMnPO4composite powders were measured at C/10and are shown in the form of cycling tests in Fig.4.The sample calcinated at520◦C demonstrated the highest capacity of134mAh g−1at C/10.The resultsdemon-Fig.5.Rate capabilities for different particle sizes of LiMnPO4. strate that the specific capacities decrease as the particle size increases.Rate capabilities for four different particle sizes are shown in Fig.5.One hundred and forty nanometer particles reached a reversible capacity of116mAh g−1at C/5(68%of the the-oretical capacity).At1C,the reversible capacities for the140 and270nm diameter LiMnPO4particles are81and7mAh g−1, respectively.Increasing particle size impacts rapidly on the abso-lute and reversible lithium capacities of LiMnPO4.This can be rationalized by a simple consideration of the lithium insertion and extraction kinetics and the poor electrical conductivity of the active phase.As the particle size increases,lithium diffusion becomes increasingly difficult due to both the diffusion limita-tion of Li+within a single large particle and the difficulty of electron transport through the bulk of thismaterial.Fig.4.The cycling performance at0.1C of LiMnPO4prepared via sol–gel using different calcination temperatures(a)520◦C,(b)570◦C,(c)600◦C,(d)600◦C and(e)700◦C and SEM images of LiMnPO4annealed at(a)520◦C,(c)600◦C and(e)700◦C.952T.Drezen et al./Journal of Power Sources174(2007)949–953Fig.6.The reversible capacities at various discharging rates in the same con-dition of charging rate of C/20.Charging and discharging rates were calculated from the nominal capacity of150mAh g−1.Fig.6shows150–160mAh g−1of reversible capacity at D/20after charging rate of C/20.Subsequently the material was charged again at C/20rate and it still obtained120–130mAh g−1 of reversible capacity at1D.At5D,65–85mAh g−1of discharge capacity was observed.The charge and discharge rate was cal-culated from a maximum practical capacity of150mAh g−1. Therefore,we reached the maximum capacity even at C/20and D/20instead of C/100and D/100.And the material achieved 87%of the maximum capacity at1D.4.DiscussionIt is suggested that to improve the electrochemical perfor-mance of olivine electrodes,it is necessary to improve both ion and electron transport.Improvement in ion transport is achieved by decreasing the particle size and ensuring a narrow size dis-tribution[13,15].Improvement in electron transport is achieved by carbon coating the cathode material and by adding carbon to the cathode.Predictably,increasing the calcination reaction temperature results in the formation of larger LiMnPO4primary particles. We demonstrate that increasing primary particle size impacts rapidly on the absolute and reversible lithium capacities of LiMnPO4.This can be rationalized by a simple consideration of the lithium insertion and extraction kinetics and the poor elec-trical conductivity of the active phase.As the primary particle size increases,lithium diffusion becomes increasingly diffi-cult due to both the diffusion limitation of Li+within a single large particle and the difficulty of electron transport through the bulk of this material.When the primary particle size is large,it will take a much longer time for lithium ions to dif-fuse into the core of the particle to make a single homogeneous phase of LiMn2+PO4or Mn3+PO4.The important observation from this work is to recognize that the mesoparticulate uniform LiMnPO4materials synthesized at lower reaction temperatures allow for shorter lithium ion diffusion lengths within a single particle.In addition,we used a high-energy planetary ball milling to make a homogeneous mixture of the active LiMnPO4mate-rial and carbon and also to make a uniform carbon network connection between carbon particles.The combination of small primary particle size and carbon coating results in enhanced specific capacities beyond92%of the theoretical capacity(156mAh g−1at C/100).The performance of116mAh g−1at C/5exceeds the best previously reported values of70mAh g−1at C/20[10]and135mAh g−1at C/25[4].5.ConclusionsNear optimal charge/discharge capacity performance has been obtained from mesoparticulate LiMnPO4cathode mate-rial in lithium ion batteries.The primary particle size for low conductivity LiMnPO4is crucial to the electrochemical performance.A relatively low reaction temperature produces well-crystallized small powders(140–160nm)with a uniform particle size and morphology.These materials achieved excel-lent charge/discharge kinetics of lithium ions.Once coated with carbon via ball milling,electrodes produced from these materials demonstrate capacities,close to the theoretical limit.The results obtained are clearly superior to literature data on LiMnPO4,con-firming that the sol–gel route provides a suitable preparation method.AcknowledgementsThe authors thank Centre Interdisciplinaire de Microscopie Electronique(CIME)for the opportunity to access SEM apparatus.We also thank te and M.Crouzet for BET measurements and electrochemical measurements,respec-tively.References[1]A.K.Padhi,K.S.Nanjundaswamy,J.B.Goodenough,J.Electrochem.Soc.144(4)(1997)1188–1194.[2]A.Yamada,S.C.Chung,J.Electrochem.Soc.148(8)(2001)A960–A967.[3]C.Delacourt,ffont,R.Bouchet,C.Wurm,J.B.Leriche,M.Mor-crette,J.M.Tarascon,C.Masquelier,J.Electrochem.Soc.152(5)(2005) A913–A921.[4]M.Yonemura,A.Yamada,Y.Takei,N.Sonoyama,R.Kanno,J.Elec-trochem.Soc.151(9)(2004)A1352–A1356.[5]A.Yamada,S.C.Chung,K.Hinokuma,J.Electrochem.Soc.148(3)(2001)A224–A229.[6]P.P.Prosini,M.Carewska,S.Scaccia,P.Wisniewski,M.Pasquali,Elec-trochim.Acta48(28)(2003)4205–4211.[7]C.H.Mi,X.B.Zhao,G.S.Cao,J.P.Tu,J.Electrochem.Soc.152(3)(2005)A483–A487.[8]S.T.Myung,S.Komaba,N.Hirosaki,H.Yashiro,N.Kumagai,Elec-trochim.Acta49(24)(2004)4213–4222.[9]H.Huang,S.C.Yin,L.F.Nazar,Electrochem.Solid-State Lett.4(10)(2001)A170–A172.[10]C.Delacourt,P.Poizot,M.Morcrette,J.M.Tarascon,C.Masquelier,Chem.Mater.16(1)(2004)93–99.[11]G.T.K.Fey,R.F.Shiu,V.Subramanian,C.L.Chen,Solid State Ionics148(3–4)(2002)291–298.T.Drezen et al./Journal of Power Sources174(2007)949–953953[12]Y.Q.Hu,M.M.Doeff,R.Kostecki,R.Finones,J.Electrochem.Soc.151(8)(2004)A1279–A1285.[13]P.P.Prosini,M.Lisi,D.Zane,M.Pasquali,Solid-State Ionics148(1–2)(2002)45–51.[14]Nam-Hee Kwon,Thierry Drezen,Ivan Exnar,Ivo Teerlinck,Motoshi Isono,Graetzel Michael,Electrochem.Solid-State Lett.9(6)(2006)A277–A280.[15]V.Srinivasan,J.Newman,J.Electrochem.Soc.151(10)(2004)A1517–A1529.。
