USP's peptide reference standards content is typically determined using an HPLC assay against an external standard for which the purity was determined by a mass balance approach. To explore the use of other analyti-cal methods, the USP Biologics Department

The Design and Development of a Tabletop Kibble Balance at NIST

March 20, 2019
Author(s)
Leon S. Chao, Frank C. Seifert, Darine El Haddad, Stephan Schlamminger
A global paradigm shift to redefine the International System of Units (SI) from a system based on seven fundamental units to seven fundamental constants is well under way. More specifically, the unit of mass, the kilogram, will be realized via a fixed

March 19, 2019
Author(s)
William G. Billotte, Brian D. Lowe, Donald R. Peterson
Established in the fall of 2017, ASTM F48 is a technical committee that is addressing the need for standards related to wearable devices that augment, enable, assist, or enhance motion, posture, or physical activity – commonly referred to as “exoskeletons”

Correlating anisotropic mobility and intermolecular phonons in organic semiconductors to investigate transient localization

March 19, 2019
Author(s)
Emily G. Bittle, Adam J. Biacchi, Lisa A. Fredin, Andrew A. Herzing, Thomas C. Allison, Angela R. Hight Walker, David J. Gundlach
Charge transport in organic semiconductors is governed by a mix of polaron hopping and band- like transport mechanisms. The energy of polaron hopping and formation are similar in magnitude to the energies of inter- and intra- molecular modes, which points
