Standard Photoacoustic Spectrometer: Model and Validation using O2 A-Band Spectra

June 30, 2010
Author(s)
Keith A. Gillis, Daniel K. Havey, Joseph T. Hodges
We model and measure the absolute response of an intensity-modulated photoacoustic spectrometer comprising a 10 cm long resonator and having a Q-factor of approximately 30. We present a detailed theoretical analysis of the system and predict its response

Determination of Organic Acids in Vaccinium Berry Standard Reference Materials

June 27, 2010
Author(s)
Melissa M. Phillips, Lane C. Sander, Katherine E. Sharpless, Stephen A. Wise, Catherine A. Rimmer, Ryan Case, James H. Yen
Nine organic acids (citric acid, galacturonic acid, glycolic acid, isocitric acid, malic acid, oxalic acid, quinic acid, shikimic acid, and tartaric acid) and two anions (phosphate and sulfate) were determined in a suite of Vaccinium berry containing

Quartz Crystal Microbalances for Microscale Thermogravimetric Analysis

June 20, 2010
Author(s)
Elisabeth Mansfield, Aparna Kar, Stephanie A. Hooker
A new method for analyzing the chemical purity and consistency of microscale samples is described using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor platform. The QCM is used to monitor sub-picogram changes in the mass of a deposited thin film as a function

Degradation and Nanoparticle Release of Nanocomposite Coatings Exposed to UV Radiation

June 2, 2010
Author(s)
Tinh Nguyen, Bastien T. Pellegrin, Coralie Bernard, Xiaohong Gu, Justin M. Gorham, Paul E. Stutzman, Alexander J. Shapiro, Walter E. Byrd, Joannie W. Chin
The release of nanoparticles from nanocomposite coatings during their life cycle potentially has negative effects to the environments and presents a roadblock to their uses. The degradation and nanoparticle release of amine-cured epoxy coatings containing

A rapid, low-cost preparation of monodisperse niosomes in a microfluidic platform

June 1, 2010
Author(s)
Catherine T. Lo, Andreas Jahn, Wyatt N. Vreeland, Laurie E. Locascio
Niosomes are synthetic membrane vesicles made of self-assembled non-ionic surfactants (i.e. amphiphilic organic compounds). They bear the same properties as liposomes, namely having an aqueous interior that is separated from the exterior aqueous

Certification of Three NIST Renewal Soil Standard Reference Materials(R) for Element Content: SRM 2709a San Joaquin Soil, SRM 2710a Montana Soil I, and SRM 2711a Montana Soil II

June 1, 2010
Author(s)
Elizabeth A. Mackey, Christopher S. Johnson, Richard M. Lindstrom, Stephen E. Long, Anthony F. Marlow, Karen E. Murphy, Rick L. Paul, Rachel S. Popelka-Filcoff, Savelas A. Rabb, John R. Sieber, Rabia Oflaz, Bryan E. Tomlin, Laura J. Wood, James H. Yen, Lee L. Yu, Rolf L. Zeisler, S. A. Wilson, M. G. Adams, Z. A. Brown, P. L. Lamothe, J. E. Taggart, C. Jones, J. Nebelsick
For the past 20 y, the National Institute of Standards and Technology has provided three soil Standard Reference Materials certified for element content: SRM 2709 San Joaquin Soil (Baseline Trace Element Concentrations); SRM 2710 Montana Soil I (Highly

Feasibility of an Accurate Dynamic Standard for Water Flow

June 1, 2010
Author(s)
Iosif I. Shinder, Michael R. Moldover
We used NIST's primary water flow standard to study the feasibility of accurately determining mass flow rates m dot of water "dynamically," that is from the time derivative of the weight W of the collection tank: m dot,dynamic = (dW/dt)/g. When data for a
