Modifications to the NIST Reference Measurement Procedure (RMP) for the Determination of Serum Glucose by Isotope Dilution Gas Chromatography/ Mass Spectrometry

April 27, 2010
Author(s)
Jocelyn L. Prendergast, Lorna T. Sniegoski, Michael J. Welch, Karen W. Phinney
NIST has been providing a Standard Reference Material (SRM) for glucose in human serum for many years to support accuracy in health care measurements. The definitive method (DM), now known as the reference measurement procedure (RMP), for the analysis of

CCQM–K62: Nutrients in Infant/Adult Formula – Vitamins

April 24, 2010
Author(s)
Katherine E. Sharpless, Catherine A. Rimmer, Karen W. Phinney, Bryant C. Nelson, David L. Duewer, Stephen A. Wise
Key Comparison CCQM-K62 was designed to enable demonstration of the equivalence in capabilities for measurement of vitamins in a food matrix. A milk-based fortified human infant/adult formula was selected as the matrix based upon material availability and

The A 2E" - X 2A2' Transition of NO 3 Trapped in Solid Neon

April 7, 2010
Author(s)
Marilyn E. Jacox, Warren E. Thompson
NO3 has been stabilized in a neon matrix at 4.3 K in sufficient yield for detection of the absorptions between 7000 and 10000 cm-1 which arise from vibronically allowed transitions from its ground state to levels of the A 2E" state. The results confirm and

Raman spectroscopic observation of dehydrogenation in ball-milled LiNH2-LiBH4-MgH2 nanoparticles

April 3, 2010
Author(s)
Jason Hattrick-Simpers, Chun Chiu, James E. Maslar, Leonid A. Bendersky, Michael E. Niemann, Sesha S. Srinivasan, Elias K. Stefanakos
In situ Raman spectroscopy was used to monitor the dehydrogenation of ball-milled mixtures of LiNH2 LiBH4 MgH2 nanoparticles. The as-milled powders were found to contain a mixture of Li4BN3H10 and Mg(NH2)2, with no evidence of residual LiNH2 or LiBH4. It

Sensitivity of coherent dual-comb spectroscopy

March 31, 2010
Author(s)
Nathan R. Newbury, Ian R. Coddington, William C. Swann
Coherent dual comb spectroscopy can provide high-resolution, high-accuracy measurements of a sample response in both magnitude and phase. We discuss the achievable signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) due to both additive white noise and multiplicative noise, and

Effect of N-Terminal Glutamic Acid and Glutamine on Fragmentation of Peptide Ions

March 27, 2010
Author(s)
Bhaskar Godugu, Pedatsur Neta, Yamil Simon, Stephen Stein
A prominent dissociation path for electrospray generated tryptic peptide ions is the dissociation of the peptide bond linking the second and third residues from the amino-terminus. The formation of the resulting b 2 and y n-2 fragments has been

Uncertainties in Electron Probe Microanalysis

March 12, 2010
Author(s)
Ryna B. Marinenko, Stefan D. Leigh
This tutorial discusses the importance of citing valid uncertainties when reporting analytical results and the need for a universally accepted approach for evaluating uncertainties. Today, the CIPM procedure has been accepted by numerous international

Classical Trajectories and RRKM Modeling of Collisional Excitation and Dissociation of Benzylammonium and tert Butyl Benzylammonium Ions in a Quadrupole-Hexapole-Quadrupole Tandem Mass Spectrometer

March 1, 2010
Author(s)
Vadim D. Knyazev, Stephen Stein
Collision-induced dissociation of the benzylammonium and the 4-tert butyl benzylammonium ions was studied experimentally in an electrospray ionization quadrupole-hexapole-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer. Ion fragmentation efficiencies were determined

Fluorinated Copolymer Nanoparticles for Multimodal Imaging Applications

February 18, 2010
Author(s)
Mark M. Bailey, Christine M. Mahoney, Elodie Dempah, Jeffrey M. Davis, Matthew Becker, Supang Khondee, Eric J. Munson, Cory J. Berkland
Nanomaterials have emerged as valuable tools in biomedical imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), fluorescence, positron emission tomography (PET), and others. Some have been designed to serve as multimodal imaging agents, combining
