Application of INAA methods for KRISS infant forumla CRM analysis: Standardization of INAA at KRISS

November 15, 2019
Author(s)
Hana Cho, Kishore B. Dasari, Radojko Ja?imovi?, Rolf L. Zeisler, Nicholas Sharp, Sun-Ha Kim, Gwang Min Sun, Yong-Hyeon Yim
We have established an instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) method, including k0- based INAA, at the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) for the certification of reference materials. As part of establishing INAA

Metabolomics Test Materials for Quality Control: A Study of a Urine Materials Suite

November 7, 2019
Author(s)
Dan Bearden, David A. Sheen, Yamil Simon, Bruce A. Benner Jr., Werickson Fortunato de Carvalho Rocha, Niksa Blonder, Katrice A. Lippa, Richard Beger, Laura Schnackenberg, Jinchun Sun, Khyati Mehta, Amrita Cheema, Haiwei Gu, Ramesh Marupaka, Nagana Gowda, Daniel Raftery
There is a lack of experimental reference materials and standards for metabolomics measurements, such as urine, plasma, and other human fluid samples. Reasons include difficulties with supply, distribution, and dissemination of information about the

Contactless Resonant Cavity Dielectric Spectroscopic Studies of Recycled Office Papers

November 5, 2019
Author(s)
Mary Kombolias, Jan Obrzut, Michael T. Postek, Dianne L. Poster, Yaw S. Obeng
Current product composition and quality test methods for the paper and pulp industry are rooted in wet-bench chemistry techniques which are highly subjective. These techniques have rather limited utility and cannot be used to distinguish between virgin and

Sensitive Method for the Confident Identification of Genetically Variant Peptides in Human Hair

October 31, 2019
Author(s)
Zheng Zhang, Meghan Burke, William E. Wallace, Yuxue Liang, Sergey L. Sheetlin, Yuri Mirokhin, Dmitrii Tchekhovskoi, Stephen Stein
Recent reports have demonstrated that genetically variant peptides (GVPs) derived from human hair shaft proteins can be used to differentiate individuals of different biogeographic origin (Parker, G.J.; et al. PLos One. 2016, e0160653). We report a direct

An updated protocol based on CLSI document C37 for preparation of off-the-clot serum from individual units for use alone or to prepare commutable pooled serum reference materials

October 30, 2019
Author(s)
Johanna Camara, Uliana Danilenko, Hubert W. Vesper, Gary L. Myers, Patric A. Clapshaw, W. Greg Miller
Manufacturers of in-vitro diagnostic medical devices, clinical laboratories, research laboratories and calibration laboratories require commutable reference materials that can be used in the calibration hierarchies of medical laboratory measurement

Enhancing the Accuracy of Measurement of Small Molecule Organic Biomarkers

October 30, 2019
Author(s)
Tang Lin Teo, Katrice Lippa, Lindsey Mackay, Sharon Yong, Qinde Liu, Johanna Camara, Vincent Delatour, Tong Kooi Lee, Beatrice Lalere, Gavin O'Connor, Andr? Henrion, Megumi Kato, Jane L. Fernandes, Masahiko Numata, Ha-Jeong Kwon, Ji-Seon Jeong, Bei Xu, Jintana Nammoommoy, Dewei Song, Wagner Wollinger
Over two decades, the Organic Analysis Working Group (OAWG) of the Consultative Committee for Amount of Substance (CCQM) has organised a number of comparisons for clinically relevant small molecule organic biomarkers. These comparisons are hinged upon the

Live quantification of cell viability via neutral red uptake using lens-free imaging

October 27, 2019
Author(s)
Brian J. Nablo, Jungjoon Ahn, Kiran Bhadriraju, Jong M. Lee, Darwin Reyes-Hernandez
We present the quantification of cell viability during neutral red (NR) uptake with a compact lens-free system utilizing two light sources. Conventionally, the NR uptake assay determines cell viability based on the accumulation of NR within lysosomes and

Absolute quantification of RNA or DNA using acid hydrolysis and mass spectrometry

October 22, 2019
Author(s)
Mark S. Lowenthal, Eva Quittman, Karen W. Phinney
Accurate, traceable quantification of ribonucleotide or deoxyribonucleotide oligomers is achievable using acid hydrolysis and isotope dilution mass spectrometry (ID-MS). In this work, formic acid hydrolysis is demonstrated to generate stoichiometric
