Carlos R. Beauchamp, Johanna Camara, Jennifer Carney, Steven J. Choquette, Kenneth D. Cole, Paul C. DeRose, David L. Duewer, Michael Epstein, Margaret Kline, Katrice Lippa, Enrico Lucon, John L. Molloy, Michael Nelson, Karen W. Phinney, Maria Polakoski, Antonio Possolo, Lane C. Sander, John E. Schiel, Katherine E. Sharpless, Michael R. Winchester, Donald Windover
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), formerly the National Bureau of Standards, was established by the U.S. Congress in 1901 and charged with establishing a measurement foundation to facilitate U.S. and international commerce. NIST

Certification of Standard Reference Materials(R) 2969 and 2970: Vitamin D Metabolites in Frozen Human Serum (Total 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Low Level) and (25-Hydroxyvitamin D2 High Level)

September 2, 2021
Author(s)
Grace Hahm, Michael Nelson, Johanna Camara, Blaza Toman
Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) 2969 and 2970 are intended for 1) use in validating methods for determining concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 (25(OH)D2) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) in human serum and plasma and 2) value assigning in house

Development of a pregnancy-specific reference material for thyroid biomarkers, vitamin D, and nutritional trace elements in serum

October 24, 2020
Author(s)
Ashley Russell, Lisa Kilpatrick, Carolyn Burdette, Denise S. Tevis, Zachary A. Fultz, Michael Nelson, Jeff M. Jarrett, Stephen A. Wise, Brittany Kassim, Stephen E. Long
Background Concentrations of critical metabolites, hormones, and nutritional elements change significantly throughout pregnancy. Therefore, increased matrix complexity is a challenge for the measurement of these biomarkers. To provide a quality assurance

A new realization of SI for organic chemical measurement: NIST PS1 Primary Standard for quantitative NMR (Benzoic Acid)

July 30, 2018
Author(s)
Michael A. Nelson, Jason F. Waters, Blaza Toman, Brian E. Lang, Alexander R?ck, Kathrin Breitruck, Markus Obkircher, Anthony Windust, Katrice A. Lippa
Metrological traceability to common references supports the comparability of chemical measurement results produced by different analysts, at various times, and at separate places. Ideally, these references are realizations of base units of the

Development of Standard Reference Material (SRM) 2973 Vitamin D Metabolites in Frozen Human Serum (High Level)

July 24, 2017
Author(s)
Susan Tai, Michael Nelson, Brian Lang, Karen W. Phinney, Lane C. Sander, James H. Yen, J. M. Betz, Christopher T. Sempos, Stephen Wise
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health, Office of Dietary Supplements (NIH-ODS) and the Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP), has recently issued a new serum-matrix Standard

December 22, 2016
Author(s)
Jeanita Pritchett, Katrice A. Lippa, Mary Bedner, Carolyn Q. Burdette, Johanna Camara, Brian E. Lang, Michael A. Nelson, Lane C. Sander, Lorna T. Sniegoski
The one week NIST-SIM chemical metrology training opportunity was designed to provide SIM NMI/DI laboratory personnel with in-depth classroom and hands-on laboratory experience for the implementation of isotope dilution/mass spectrometry (ID/MS) methods in

Liquid Chromatography with Absorbance Detection and with Isotope-Dilution Mass Spectrometry for Determination of Isoflavones in Soy Standard Reference Materials

November 10, 2016
Author(s)
Melissa M. Phillips, Mary Bedner, Manuela Reitz, Carolyn Q. Burdette, Michael A. Nelson, James H. Yen, Lane C. Sander, Catherine A. Rimmer
Two independent analytical approaches, based on liquid chromatography with absorbance detection and liquid chromatography with mass spectrometric detection, have been developed for determination of isoflavones in soy materials. These two methods yield

Evaluation of chemical purity using quantitative 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance

September 28, 2016
Author(s)
Blaza Toman, Michael A. Nelson, Katrice A. Lippa
Chemical purity assessment using quantitative 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a method based on ratio references of mass and signal intensity of the analyte species to that of chemical standards of known purity. As such, it is an example of a
