Particle Fabrication Using Inkjet Printing onto Hydrophobic Surfaces for Optimization and Calibration of Trace Contraband Detection Sensors

November 24, 2015
Author(s)
John G. Gillen, Marcela N. Najarro, Matthew E. Staymates, Scott A. Wight, Marlon L. Walker, Jennifer R. Verkouteren, Eric S. Windsor, Aaron A. Urbas
A method has been developed to fabricate patterned arrays of micrometer-sized monodisperse solid particles of ammonium nitrate on hydrophobic silicon surfaces using inkjet printing. The method relies on dispensing one or more microdrops (typically 50 pL

Proceedings of SPIE

Maritoni A. Litorja, Aaron A. Urbas, Yuqin Zong
The fluorescent light detected by a clinical imager is assumed to be proportional to the amount of fluorescent substance present in the sample. Unfortunately, there are many factors that can add or subtract to the light signal directly attributable to the

A thermodynamic investigation of the cellulose allomorphs: cellulose(am), cellulose I?(cr), cellulose II(cr), and cellulose III(cr)

November 11, 2014

Robert N. Goldberg, Jacob Schliesser, Ashutosh Mittal, Stephen R. Decker, Ana Filipa L. Santos, Vera L. Freitas, Aaron A. Urbas, Brian E. Lang, Christian Heisse, Maria D. Ribeiro da Silva, Brian F. Woodfield, Rui Katahira, Wei Wang, David K. Johnson
The thermochemistry of samples of amorphous cellulose, cellulose I, cellulose II, and cellulose III was studied by using oxygen bomb calorimetry, solution calorimetry in which the solvent was cadoxen, and with a Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS)

Probing the intracellular glutathione redox potential using in-cell NMR spectroscopy

January 2, 2014
Author(s)
Steve Y. Rhieu, Aaron A. Urbas, Daniel W. Bearden, John P. Marino, Vytautas Reipa, Katrice A. Lippa
Non-invasive and real-time analysis of cellular redox processes has been greatly hampered by lack of suitable measurement techniques. Here we describe an in-cell nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based method for measuring the intracellular glutathione

Quantitative measurements of glutathione in yeast cell lysate using 1H NMR

February 20, 2013
Author(s)
Steve Y. Rhieu, Aaron A. Urbas, Katrice Lippa, Vytas Reipa
A method for quantifying the level of glutathione (GSH) in yeast cell lysate is described using 1H NMR analysis. For quantification purposes, the 1H resonances corresponding to the Cys βCH2 of GSH were identified as having the fewest overlapping spectral

Automated Spectral Smoothing with Spatially Adaptive Penalized Least-Squares

June 1, 2011
Author(s)
Aaron A. Urbas, Steven J. Choquette
A variety of data smoothing techniques exist to address the issue of noise in spectroscopic data. The vast majority, however, require parameter specification by a knowledgeable user, which is typically accomplished by trial and error. In most situations
