This study represents the most comprehensive qualitative characterization of three combustion- related standard reference materials (SRMs) for polycyclic aromatic sulfur heterocycles (PASHs) and some alkyl-substituted (alkyl-) derivatives to date: SRM
Ambient mass spectrometry has evolved rapidly over the past decade, yielding a plethora of platforms and demonstrating scientific advancements across a range of fields from biological imaging to rapid quality control. These techniques have enabled real
Chemical heterogeneity, defined as the change (or lack thereof) across the molar mass distribution (MMD) in the monomeric ratio of a copolymer, can influence processing and end-use properties such as solubility, gas permeation, conductivity, and the energy

Ultraviolet (UV) absorbance measurements provide a rapid and reliable method to determine protein concentrations. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed Standard Reference Material (SRM) 2082as a pathlength standard for UV
Isotope dilution cold-vapor inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ID-CV-ICPMS) has become the primary standard for measurement of gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) mass concentration. However, quantitative mass spectrometry is challenging for several
Infrared thermal desorption (IRTD) was coupled with direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) for the detection of both inorganic and organic explosives from wipe collected samples. This platform generated discrete and rapid heating rates

As has long been understood, the noise on a spectrometric signal can be reduced by averaging over time, and the averaged noise is expected to decrease as t1/2, the square root of the data collection time. However, with contemporary capability for fast data
