Conjugated oligoelectrolytes (COEs) bearing pyridinium and carboxylate groups are synthesized, characterized, and compared to the trimethylammonium analogue from which they are derived. All COEs are able to spontaneously intercalate into liposomes, whereas only positively charged COEs intercalate into E. coli membranes. Membrane intercalation is determined necessary for performance enhancement in microbial fuel cells.
合成并表征了带有吡啶鎓和羧酸盐基团的共轭低聚物(COEs),并将其与衍生出它们的三甲基铵类似物进行比较。所有COEs都能够自发插入脂质体,而只有带正电荷的COEs能插入大肠杆菌细胞膜。膜插入被认为是微生物燃料电池性能增强所必需的。
