The National Cancer Institute (NCI) issued a Request for Information (RFI) in October 2022, soliciting input on using and reusing metabolomics data. This RFI aimed to seek input on best practices for metabolomics data storage, management, and use/reuse. In

Comparison of N-glycopeptide to released N-glycan abundances and the influence of glycopeptide mass and charge state on N-linked glycosylation of IgG antibodies

March 7, 2024
Author(s)
Concepcion Remoroza, Meghan Burke Harris, Tytus Mak, Sergey Sheetlin, Yuri Mirokhin, Zachary Goecker, Brian T. Cooper, Mark Lowenthal, Xiaoyu (Sara) Yang, Guanghui Wang, Dmitrii V. Tchekhovskoi, Stephen E. Stein
We report the comparison of mass-spectral-based abundances of tryptic glycopeptides to fluorescence abundances of released labeled glycans and the effects of mass and charge state and in-source fragmentation on glycopeptide abundances. The primary

Isotopic effects on in-plane hyperbolic phonon polaritons in MoO3

March 4, 2024
Author(s)
Jeremy Schultz, Sergiy Krylyuk, Jeffrey Schwartz, Albert Davydov, Andrea Centrone
Hyperbolic phonon polaritons (HPhPs), hybrids of light and lattice vibrations in polar dielectric crystals, empower nano-photonic applications by enabling the confinement and manipulation of light at the nanoscale. Molybdenum trioxide (α-MoO3) is a

Michael Nelson, Jerome Mulloor, Brian Lang, Blaza Toman, Antonio Possolo, William Perry, Alicia Lyle
Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1595a Tripalmitin is a high purity chemical substance having a certified value for purity, expressed as a mass fraction. It is intended for use in preparing calibrants for measurement of total glyceride in clinical samples

Correlating Near-Infrared Spectra to Bulk Properties in Polyolefins

February 28, 2024
Author(s)
Bradley Sutliff, Shailja Goyal, Tyler Martin, Peter Beaucage, Debra Audus, Sara Orski
The industry standard for sorting plastic wastes is near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, which offers rapid and nondestructive identification of various plastics. However, NIR does not provide insights into the chain composition, conformation, and topology of
