Background: Product safety testing typically involves lethal toxicity assessments, which likely miss long- term health impacts. Optimizing long-term product safety is critical for widespread chemical use. The obesity epidemic exemplifies a condition based

Organohalogen contaminants and vitamins in Northern Fur Seals (Callorhinus ursinus) collected during subsistence hunts in Alaska

Jessica L. Reiner, Paul R. Becker, Jennifer M. Lynch, Amanda J. Moors, Jennifer M. Ness, Rebecca S. Pugh, Catherine A. Rimmer, John R. Kucklick, Matthew O. Gribble, Danielle Peterson, Jody Rhoderick, Jennifer Trevillian
During native subsistence hunts from 1987 to 2007, blubber and liver samples from 50 subadult male northern fur seals (Callorhinus ursinus) were collected on St. Paul Island, Alaska. Samples were analyzed for legacy persistent organic pollutants (POPs)

UV-assisted room-temperature chemiresistive NO2 sensor based on TiO2 thin film

December 24, 2015

Ting Xie, Nichole Sullivan, Kristen L. Steffens, Baomei Wen, Guannan Liu, Ratan K. Debnath, Albert Davydov, Romel D. Gomez, Abhishek Motayed
TiO2 thin film based, chemiresistive sensors for NO2 gas which operate at room temperature under ultraviolet (UV) illumination have been demonstrated in this work. The rf-sputter deposited and post-annealed TiO2 thin films have been characterized by atomic

Beam-Scanning for Rapid Coherent Raman Hyperspectral Imaging

December 14, 2015

Seungwan Ryu, Charles Camp, Ying Jin, Marcus T. Cicerone, Young Jong Lee
Coherent Raman imaging requires high peak power laser pulses to maximize the nonlinear multiphoton signal generation, but accompanying photo-induced sample damage often poses a challenge to microscopic imaging studies. We demonstrate that a beam-scanning

Urinary iodine and stable isotope analysis to examine habitat influences on thyroid hormones among coastal dwelling American alligators

December 9, 2015

Ashley S. Boggs-Russell, Heather J. Hamlin, James C. Nifong, Brittany L. Kassim, Russell H. Lowers, Thomas M. Galligan, Stephen E. Long, Louis J. Guillette Jr.
The American alligator, a freshwater species, is known to forage in marine environments which could lead to increased dietary uptake of iodine, a nutrient necessary for the production of thyroid hormones. To explore the influence of dietary iodine on

Observation of Iron Spin-States using Tabletop X-ray Emission Spectroscopy and Microcalorimeter Sensors

Young Il Joe, Galen C. O'Neil, Luis Miaja Avila, Joseph W. Fowler, Kevin L. Silverman, Daniel S. Swetz, Joel N. Ullom, Ralph Jimenez
X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) is a powerful probe of the electronic and chemical state of elemental species embedded within more complex compounds. X-ray sensors that combine high resolving power and high collecting efficiency are desirable for photon

QUANTITY: An Isobaric Tag for Quantitative Glycomics

November 30, 2015
Author(s)
Shuang Yang, Meiyao Wang, Lijun Chen, Illarion Turko, Karen W. Phinney, Shuwei Li
We describe the design and synthesis of a novel set of iso-baric tags for quantitative glycan profiling, which will have broad applications in carbohydrate based biomarker dis-covery, therapeutic protein characterization, and vaccine development.

Determination of high-molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in high performance liquid chromatography fractions of coal tar standard reference material 1597a via solid-phase nanoextraction and laser-excited time-resolved Shpolskii spectr

November 10, 2015

Walter B. Wilson, Bassam Alfarhani, Cristina Bisson, Stephen A. Wise, Andres Campiglia
This article presents an alternative approach for the analysis of high molecular weight – polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (HMW-PAHs) with molecular mass 302 Da in complex environmental samples. This is not a trivial task due to the large number of

Increased carrier mobility and lifetime in CdSe quantum dot thin films through surface passivation and doping

November 4, 2015
Author(s)
Daniel Straus, E. D. Goodwin, E. A. Gaulding, Shinichiro Muramoto, Murray B. Christopher, Cherie R. Kagan
Passivating surface defects and controlling the carrier concentration and mobility in quantum dot (QD) thin films is a prerequisite to designing electronic and optoelectronic devices. We investigate the effect of introducing indium in CdSe QD thin films on

Chemical Kinetics and Photochemical Data for Use in Atmospheric Studies, Evaluation No. 18

Vladimir L. Orkin, James B. Burkholder, S. P. Sander, J. P. D. Abbatt D. Abbatt, J. R. Barker, Robert E. Huie, C E. Kolb, Michael J. Kurylo III, David M. Wilmouth, P. H. Wine
This is the eighteenth in a series of evaluated sets of rate constants, photochemical cross sections, heterogeneous parameters, and thermochemical parameters compiled by the NASA Panel for Data Evaluation. The data are used primarily to model stratospheric

Abiotic bromination of soil organic matter

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Bruce D. Ravel, Alessandra C. Leri
Biogeochemical transformations of plant-derived soil organic matter (SOM) involve complex abiotic and microbially mediated reactions. One such reaction is halogenation, which occurs naturally in the soil environment and has been associated with enzymatic

Identification and Quantification of Six-Ring C26H16 Cata-Condensed Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in a Complex Mixture of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons from Coal Tar

October 8, 2015
Author(s)
Jorge O. Ona Ruales, Arun K. Sharma, Stephen A. Wise
We applied a combination of normal-phase liquid chromatography (NPLC) with ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) for the fractionation, identification, and quantification of six ring cata-condensed C26H16
