Selecting Centrifuge Consumables

Selecting a centrifuge and rotor can sometimes feel like the easy part when faced with choosing the consumables in which to centrifuge samples. There are many suppliers of centrifuge tubes to choose ... read more
A Weak Cation-Exchange, Reversed-Phase Mixed-Mode HPLC Column and its Applications

Basic compounds are widely used in many areas, such as pharmaceutical development, biological research, consumer products, and in the chemical industry. Although reversed-phase (RP) liquid ... read more
Prediction of NOx Emissions in Boilers Using Neural Networks and Excel™

In an attempt to demystify artificial neural networks (ANNs) and to set the tone of this paper, it is best to start by saying that ANNs are mathematical functions of the form y = f(x, w), where y is ... read more
Comparison of Methyl Benzoate and Ergosterol for the Quantification of Mold in Indoor Buildings and Materials

Over the last few years there have been many school and business closures related to mold and bacteria buildup, which have affected the health of the occupants. Mold growth has been potentially linked... read more
A Chromatography Detector for Multicomponent Analysis of Macromolecules and Polymers

The properties of long-chain molecules and polymers are tailored to meet the demands of a specific application in a range of different ways. In the production of “smart” materials and other high-... read more
Using a Purge-and-Trap Concentrator for Newly Proposed U.S. EPA Method 524.3

Purge-and-trap (P&T) concentration along with GC analysis is a widely used method for the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This methodology was developed to achieve the high sensitivity... read more
Determination of Metal Impurities Present in Solar-Grade Bulk Silicon by ORS-ICP-MS

Research into alternative energy sources is accelerating, with one of the most dynamic areas of interest being the development of devices to harness solar energy. Some industry experts, including the ... read more
High-Throughput Screening Applications for Enantiomeric Excess Determination Using ESI-MS

In the past decades, high-throughput screening (HTS) applications have been established in many fields of drug development. Thus, suitable qualitative and quantitative analytical methods have become ... read more
A Versatile Substrate Coated With Silver Nanoparticles for Surface-Enhanced Vibrational Spectroscopy

Both infrared and Raman spectroscopic techniques are useful for probing the structure of complex molecules. However, they are typically not as sensitive as mass spectrometric techniques and hence have... read more
An Improved Protocol for the Analysis of Alcohols by Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry

It was previously reported that when Direct Analysis in Real Time (DART™) (JEOL USA, Inc., Peabody, MA) mass spectrometry was applied to the analysis of very pure alcohols, their mass spectra were ... read more
Pittcon® 2011 Goes to the Peach State

The 62nd Annual Pittsburgh Conference on Analytical Chemistry and Applied Spectroscopy (Pittcon® 2011) heads to the Peach State, so-called for the importance of peaches in Georgia’s agricultural ... read more
2010 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition®: Winners and Honorable Mentions

The history of man looking for an instrument to view objects too small to be seen by the naked eye dates back hundreds of years. In 1665, Robert Hooke first observed “cells” when looking at a sliver ... read more
The 50th Anniversary of the American Society for Cell Biology: The Science of Life, the Life of Science

The city of Philadelphia welcomed the American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB) for its 50th Annual Meeting, held from December 11 to 15. The meeting featured the new tagline, The Science of Life, the ... read more
A Rapid-Scanning Differential Scanning Calorimeter

In recent years, interest has been growing in performing differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at higher temperature-scanning rates. read more
Robust Solutions for High-Temperature Biodiesel Analysis: Combining Deactivated Metal Columns, Leak-Tight Coupling, and Built-In Retention Gap Technology

There has been a huge increase in the use of biodiesel fuels. read more
