Crystal polymorphism of pharmaceutical compounds directly impacts resulting physicochemical characteristics, a critical aspect in active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) production. Tools to characterize and chemically map these polymorphs at the single

We report structure-terahertz property relationship for various non-oxide chalcogenide glasses including unary (vitreous selenium (Se)), binary (arsenic sulfide (As-S), arsenic selenide (As-Se), and germanium selenide (Ge-Se)), and ternary (germanium

A nitrogen-oxygen Smiles rearrangement was reported to occur after collisional activation of the PhN(R)CH2CH2O- (R = alkyl) anion, which undergoes a five-membered ring rearrangement to form a phenoxide ion C6H5O-. When R = H, such a Smiles rearrangement is

The sugars that coat the outsides of viruses and host cells are key to successful disease transmission, but they remain understudied compared to other molecular features. Understanding the comparative zoology of glycosylation - and harnessing it for

We present a mass-spectral library-based method for analyzing site-specific N-linked protein glycosylation. Its operation and utility are illustrated by applying it to both newly measured and available proteomics data of human milk glycoproteins. It
An electro-optic dual-comb system based on chirped-pulse waveforms is used to simultaneously acquire temporally magnified rapid passage signals and normal spectral line shapes from the back-transformation to the time domain. Multi-heterodyne terahertz (THz
For hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) to have an increased role in quality control of biopharmaceuticals, H for D back-exchange occurring during protein analyses should be minimized to promote greater reproducibility. Standard HDX-MS

Organic mixed ionic electronic conductors (OMIECs) have the potential to enable diverse new technologies, ranging from biosensors to flexible energy storage devices and neuromorphic computing platforms. However, study of these materials in their operating

The 3D molecular orientations of polymer chains are imaged and compared for a quiescent spherulite region and a shear deformed region of a semicrystalline poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL) film. The images of 3D orientation are acquired by a newly developed

Anisotropic molecular alignment occurs ubiquitously and often heterogeneously in three dimensions (3D). However, conventional imaging approaches based on polarization can map only molecular orientation projected onto the 2D polarization plane. Here, an
Molecular shape can provide a basis for chromatographic separations that is distinct from other interaction mechanisms often considered in liquid chromatography. Molecular shape recognition, or shape selectivity, is most evident for the separation of

Porous metal-organic frameworks are a class of materials with great promise in gas separation and gas storage applications. Due to the large material space, computational screening techniques have long been an important part of the scientific toolbox
