Mapping Electron Transfer at MoS2 using Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy

October 29, 2018
Author(s)
Nicole L. Ritzert, Veronika Szalai, Thomas P. Moffat
Understanding the role of macroscopic and atomic defects in the interfacial electron transfer properties of layered transition metal dichalcogenides is important in optimizing their performance in energy conversion and electronic devices. Means of

Innovative Approaches to Combat Healthcare-Associated Infections Using Efficacy Standards Developed Through Industry and Federal Collaboration

October 5, 2018
Author(s)
Dianne L. Poster, Carl C. Miller, Yaw S. Obeng, Michael T. Postek, Troy E. Cowan, Richard A. Martinello
Nation-wide, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) infect one in every 25 hospital patients, account for more than 100,000 deaths and increase medical costs by around $96-147B, each year. Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) antimicrobial devices are shown to reduce the

Development of a new reversed-phase liquid chromatography and fluorescence method with multichannel selective wavelength detection for the analysis of benzo[a]pyrene and six of its isomers

September 28, 2018
Author(s)
Walter B. Wilson, Stephen A. Wise, Lane C. Sander
The baseline separation of benzo[a]pyrene in complex samples via reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) is particularly challenging due to the potential for interferences from other molecular mass 252 (MM, g/mol) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs

PRIMARY STANDARDIZATION OF THE MASSIC ACTIVITY OF A PROTACTINIUM-233 SOLUTION

August 23, 2018
Author(s)
Ryan P. Fitzgerald, Leticia S. Pibida
Protactinium-233 (233Pa) is used as a tracer for radiochemical analysis and is of particular interest as an isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) spike for 231Pa/235U radio- chronometry. To this end, we present massic activity determinations by two

Nanoscale partitioning of Paclitaxel in Hybrid Lipid-Polymer Membranes

August 6, 2018
Author(s)
Mohit Tuteja, Minjee Kang, Cecilia Leal, Andrea Centrone
Paclitaxel is a powerful drug against restenosis and many forms of cancer. However, its clinical application hinges on the ability to achieve suitable stabilized drug concentrations in an aqueous suspension while hindering drug crystallization. To engineer

A new realization of SI for organic chemical measurement: NIST PS1 Primary Standard for quantitative NMR (Benzoic Acid)

July 30, 2018
Author(s)
Michael A. Nelson, Jason F. Waters, Blaza Toman, Brian E. Lang, Alexander R?ck, Kathrin Breitruck, Markus Obkircher, Anthony Windust, Katrice A. Lippa
Metrological traceability to common references supports the comparability of chemical measurement results produced by different analysts, at various times, and at separate places. Ideally, these references are realizations of base units of the

Determination of polypeptide conformation in water with nanoscale resolution in water

July 24, 2018
Author(s)
Georg Ramer, Francesco Ruggeri, Aviad Levin, Toumas Knowles, Andrea Centrone
The conformational structure and folding of proteins are central to many biological processes. However, misfolding of proteins and peptides can lead to toxic aggregates that are involved in Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative disorders. Methods to

Creating a Mass Spectral Reference Library for Oligosaccharides in Milk

July 3, 2018
Author(s)
Concepcion A. Remoroza, Tytus D. Mak, M. L. De Leoz, Yuri A. Mirokhin, Stephen E. Stein
We report the development and availability of a mass spectral reference library for oligosaccharides in human milk. This represents a new variety of spectral library that includes consensus spectra of compounds annotated through various data analysis

Determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with molecular mass 302 in standard reference material 1597a by reversed-phase liquid chromatography and stop-flow fluorescence detection

June 21, 2018
Author(s)
Hugh Hayes, Walter Wilson, Lane Sander, Stephen Wise, Andres Campiglia
The identification of isomeric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in complex samples via reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) with fluorescence detection (FL) is normally based on matching the chromatographic retention times of suspected peaks

An Iterative Qualitative - Quantitative Sequential Analysis Strategy for Electron-Excited X-ray Microanalysis with Energy Dispersive Spectrometry: Finding the Unexpected Needles in the Peak Overlap Haystack

June 20, 2018
Author(s)
Dale E. Newbury, Nicholas Ritchie
When analyzing an unknown by electron-excited energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry with the entire periodic table possibly in play, how does the analyst discover minor and trace constituents when their peaks are overwhelmed by the intensity of an
