IFCC working group recommendations for correction of bias caused by non-commutability of a certified reference material used in the calibration hierarchy of an end-user measurement procedure

June 1, 2020

Johanna Camara, W. Greg Miller, Jeffrey R. Budd, Neil Greenberg, Weykamp Cas, Harald Althaus, Heinz Schimmel, Mauro Panteghini, Vincent Delatour, Ferruccio Ceriotti, Thomas Keller, Douglas Hawkins, Robert Rej, Finlay MacKenzie, Elina van der Hagen, Hubert W. Vesper
Establishing metrological traceability to a matrix-based certified reference material (CRM) that has been validated to be commutable among a group of measurement procedures (MPs) is central to producing equivalent results for a measurand in clinical

Quasi-elastic Neutron Scattering Measurement of Hydrogen Diffusion in a Graphene Oxide Framework

April 16, 2020
Author(s)
Matthew J. Connolly, Z. N. Buck, Carlos Wexler, Joseph C. Schaeperkoetter, H. Taub, Andrew Gillespie, Helmut Kaiser
We present quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) spectra from molecular hydrogen adsorbed in GOF. The measurements probed the motion of adsorbed hydrogen as a function of pressure, in order to understand the relationship between the motion of adsorbed

Characterization of triacontyl (C-30) liquid chromatographic columns

March 15, 2020
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander, Catherine A. Rimmer, Walter B. Wilson
Differences in the performance characteristics of seventeen commercial C30 liquid chromatographic columns were studied for the separation of carotenoid isomers. A mixture consisting of nine xanthophyll and hydrocarbon carotenoids were separated under

Optimum lithium loading of a liquid scintillator for neutron and neutrino detection

February 11, 2020
Author(s)
Hans Pieter Mumm, Denis E. Bergeron, Mark Tyra, Jerome LaRosa, Svetlana Nour, T.J. Langford, Dimitry A. Pushin
Neutral particle detection in high-background environments is greatly aided by the ability to easily load 6Li into liquid scintillators. We describe a readily available and inexpensive liquid scintillation cocktail stably loaded with up to 1 % Li by mass

Excess Electrons Bound to H2S Trimer and Tetramer Clusters

January 24, 2020
Author(s)
Gaoxiang Liu, Manuel Diaz-Tinoco, Sandra M. Ciborowski, Chalynette Martinez-Martinez, Svetlana Lyspustina, Jay H. Hendricks, Vincent Ortiz, Kit H. Bowen
The hydrogen sulfide trimer and tetramer anions, (H2S)3– and (H2S)4–, were generated by Rydberg electron transfer and studied via a synergy between velocity-map imaging anion photoelectron spectroscopy and high-level quantum chemical calculations. The

Observation of an isomerizing double-well quantum system in the condensed phase

January 10, 2020
Author(s)
Varun Verma, Jascha A. Lau, Arnab Choudhury, Li Chen, Dirk Schwarzer, Alec M. Wodtke
Molecules are quantum objects; therefore, isomerization fundamentally involves quantum states bound within a molecular potential energy function with multiple minima. For isolated gas-phase molecules, eigenstates well above the isomerization saddle points

An updated protocol based on CLSI document C37 for preparation of off-the-clot serum from individual units for use alone or to prepare commutable pooled serum reference materials

October 30, 2019
Author(s)
Johanna Camara, Uliana Danilenko, Hubert W. Vesper, Gary L. Myers, Patric A. Clapshaw, W. Greg Miller
Manufacturers of in-vitro diagnostic medical devices, clinical laboratories, research laboratories and calibration laboratories require commutable reference materials that can be used in the calibration hierarchies of medical laboratory measurement

Unusual Regularity in GC Retention of Simple Amino Acid Derivatives

August 8, 2019
Author(s)
Anzor I. Mikaia, Nino G. Todua, Zenkevich G. Igor
Background. Application of simple regularities and the general principles along with direct use of reference retention index data is a useful approach for reliable structure determination of compounds by GC-MS. Objective. Interpretation of anomaly in

Enzyme-Inspired Microporous Polymer Layers Determine the Reactivity of Encapsulated Metallic Surfaces

August 5, 2019
Author(s)
Andrew Herzing, Andrew Riscoe, Cody Wrasman, Adam Hoffman, Aditya Menon, Alexey Boubnov, Maria Vargas, Simon Bare, Matteo Cargnello
Enzymes are natural catalysts that govern precise, biological chemistry through accurate control of transport and activation of species within three-dimensional active sites, but their use in industrial applications is limited by their stability1

Stability of gaseous volatile organic compounds contained in gas cylinders with different internal wall treatments

July 29, 2019
Author(s)
George C. Rhoderick, Christina Cecelski, Walter R. Miller Jr., David Worton, Sergi Moreno, Paul Brewer, Joele Viallon, Faraz Idrees, Philippe Moussay, Yong D. Kim, Dal H. Kim, Sangil Lee, Annarita Baldan, Jianrong Li
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a group of gas-phase compounds present in the atmosphere that affect air quality and Earth's climate. Halocarbons, a subset of this group, are strong greenhouse gases and are linked to stratospheric ozone depletion
