A new tobacco filler Standard Reference Material (SRM) has been issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in September 2016 with certified and reference mass fraction values for nicotine, N-nitrosonornicotine (NNN), 4-

Analytical Methods and Development of Reference Materials for Toxic Metals and Metal Species in Food and Dietary Supplements

September 18, 2017
Author(s)
Stephen E. Long, Michael B. Ellisor, Frances Nilsen, Laura J. Wood, Karen E. Murphy, Lee L. Yu
Highly toxic metals such as arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury are prevalent in the terrestrial and marine environments from both natural sources and anthropogenic activities. Contamination of food can often occur during agricultural production and food

Trichothiazole A, a dichlorinated polyketide featuring an embedded thiazole isolated from Trichodesmium thiebautii blooms

September 18, 2017
Author(s)
Tracey B. Schock, Peter D. Moeller, Rick Belisle, Christopher W. Via, Tracy A. Villareal, Kevin Beauchesne, Matthew J. Bertin, Paul Zimba
Mass spectrometry-guided isolation of the lipophilic extract of Trichodesmium thiebautii bloom material led to the isolation and structure characterization of a new thiazole-containing di-chlorinated polyketide (1). The structure of 1 was deduced using 1D

Nanophotonic atomic force microscope transducers enable chemical composition and thermal conductivity measurements at the nanoscale

September 13, 2017
Author(s)
Jungseok Chae, Sangmin An, Georg Ramer, Vitalie Stavila, Glenn Holland, Yohan Yoon, Alec Talin, Mark Allendorf, Vladimir Aksyuk, Andrea Centrone
The atomic force microscope (AFM) offers a rich observation window on the nanoscale, yet many dynamic phenomena are too fast and too weak for direct detection, urging measurement innovation. Integrated cavity-optomechanics is revolutionizing

The structural phases and vibrational properties of Mo1-xWxTe2 alloys

September 1, 2017
Author(s)
Sean M. Oliver, Ryan Beams, Sergiy Krylyuk, Arunima Singh, Irina Kalish, Alina Bruma, Francesca Tavazza, Iris Stone, Stephan J. Stranick, Albert Davydov, Patrick M. Vora
The structural polymorphism in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) provides exciting opportunities for developing advanced electronics. For example, MoTe2 crystallizes in the 2H semiconducting phase at ambient temperature and pressure, but transitions

Baseline Assessment of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Assay Performance: A Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) Interlaboratory Comparison Study

Carter, Julia C. Jones, P. Brannon, R. M. Lucas, P. M. Crump, Glenville Jones, E. Cavalier, Joyce Merkel, J. M. Betz
The Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) coordinated an interlaboratory study to assess the comparability of measurements of total 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] in human serum, which is the primary marker of vitamin D status. A set of 50 individual

Single Molecule Nanopore Spectrometry for Peptide Detection

August 15, 2017
Author(s)
Amy Chavis, Joseph Robertson, Joseph E. Reiner, Kyle Brady, Grrace Hatmaker, Nuwan Kothalawala
Sensing and characterization of water-soluble peptides is of critical importance in a wide variety of bioapplications. Single molecule nanopore spectrometry (SMNS) is based on the idea that one can use biological protein nanopores to resolve different

Surface interaction parameter measurement of solvated polymers via model end-tethered chains

August 11, 2017
Author(s)
Richard J. Sheridan, Sara V. Orski, Ronald L. Jones, Sushil K. Satija, Kathryn L. Beers
We present a method for the direct measurement of the relative energy of interaction between a solvated polymer and a solid interface. By tethering linear chains covalently to the surface, we ensured the idealized and constant configuration of polymer
