Reference Materials for MS-based Untargeted Metabolomics and Lipidomics: A Review by the Metabolomics Quality Assurance and Quality Control Consortium (mQACC)

April 9, 2022
Author(s)
Katrice Lippa, William Davis, Christina Jones, Tracey Schock, Juan Aristizabal-Henao, Richard Beger, John Bowden, Corey Broeckling, Chris Beecher, Warwick Dunn, Roberto Flores, Goncalo Gouveia, Thomas Hartung, Matthew Lewis, Ioanna Ntai, Andrew Percy, Dan Raftery, Jinchun Sun, Georgios Theodoridis, Fariba Tayyari, Federico Torta, Candice Ulmer, Baljit Ubhi
Introduction The metabolomics quality assurance and quality control consortium (mQACC) is enabling the identification, development, prioritization and promotion of suitable reference materials (RMs) to be used in quality assurance (QA) and quality control

Size-Exclusion Chromatography: A twenty-first Century Perspective

April 4, 2022
Author(s)
Andre Striegel
Now in its sixth decade, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) remains the premier method by which to determine the molar mass averages and distributions of natural and synthetic macromolecules. Aided by its coupling to a variety and multiplicity of

Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy for polymers

April 1, 2022
Author(s)
Shuyu Xu, Charles Camp, Young Jong Lee
Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy is a label-free chemical imaging modality capable of interrogating local molecular composition, concentration, and even orientation. In comparison to traditional Raman spectroscopy/imaging, CARS

Dianne L. Poster, Matthew Hardwick, C Cameron Miller, Michael A. Riley, W. W. Shanaka I. Rodrigo, Andras E. Vladar, John D. Wright, Christopher D. Zangmeister, Clarence Zarobila, Jeremy Starkweather, John Wynne, Jason Yilzarde
Data for interpreting virus inactivation on N95 face filtering respirators (FFRs) by ultraviolet (UV) radiation are important in developing UV strategies for N95 FFR disinfection and reuse for any situation, whether it be everyday practices, contingency

Separations by Shape: Molecular Shape Recognition in Liquid Chromatography

February 28, 2022
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
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

Konopelko, A.V. Kolobova, Y.A. Kustikov, A.Y. Klimov, O.V. Efremova, Janneke van Wijk, Adriaan van der Veen
The CCQM-K10.2018 comparison aimed to evaluate the capabilities of national metrology institutes (NMIs) to prepare and/or value assign primary reference mixtures containing benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, p-xylene, m-xylene and o-xylene (subsequently

Certification of NIST Gas Mixture Standard Reference Materials

February 10, 2022
Author(s)
Christina Cecelski, Kimberly Harris, Cassie Goodman, William A. Kimes, Philip Liu, Walter R. Miller Jr., Jennifer Carney
The Gas Sensing Metrology Group at NIST provides accurate, stable gaseous standards for use in various types of emissions testing and environmental monitoring. The group develops and maintains the highest level of primary gas standards, which provide

Micro to nano: multiscale IR analyses reveal zinc soap heterogeneity in a 19th-century painting by Corot

February 9, 2022
Author(s)
Xiao Ma, Georges Pavlidis, Eoghan Dillon, Victoria Beltran, Jeffrey Schwartz, Mathieu Thoury, Ferenc Borondics, Christophe Sandt, Kevin Kjoller, Barbara Berrie, Andrea Centrone
The formation and aggregation of metal carboxylates (metal-soaps) can degrade the appearance and integrity of oil paints and frequently poses a challenge to the conservation of painted works of art. Efforts to understand the root cause of metal-soap

Optofluidic Flow Meter for sub-nanoliter per minute flow measurements

January 31, 2022
Author(s)
Jalal Sadeghi, Paul Patrone, Anthony J. Kearsley, Gregory A. Cooksey
Performance improvements in microfluidic systems depend on accurate measurement and control of fluids on the micro- and nanoscale, and new applications are continuously moving the needle to lower volumetric flow rates. This work focuses on improving an
