Proper quality measures are vital in all areas of clinical laboratory testing to prevent or avoid carryover between samples, as well as to minimize the risk of false-positive results. The sample ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a very popular analysis tool for 3D surface topology visualization and other measurements on a wide range of materials at nanoscales ...

Implementing dimpling technologies, materials science sample preparation for TEM is now an established practice. A crucial component of this procedure is the capacity to precisely calibrate the ...

To produce high-quality cement, the mineralogical and chemical composition of raw materials, as well as of intermediate and finished products, needs to be determined. At each stage of the production ...

The complexity and abundance of proteins in most biological systems exceed the resolution capacity of every currently existing analytical technique. Perhaps the most striking example is the serum ...

Sample preparation is essential when employing chromatography for bioanalytical analysis as system performance will be negatively affected if it is not performed. Preparation methods include protein ...

The family of electron microscopy techniques have become staple methods for imaging nanoscale objects, including nanoparticles, viruses and proteins. The appeal of electron microscopy as a ...

Faster, Easier, and More Consistent than Existing Paramagnetic-Based Methods Recent developments in protein-purification techniques provide the missing tools needed to study weak and transient protein ...

With many traditional sample filtration and separation procedures, researchers face complex, time-consuming workflows with low sample recovery. To facilitate and accelerate sample processing, and ...

Stable isotope techniques can help improve soil management and crop nutrition. To ensure the quality of stable isotope analysis through isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS), appropriate sample ...
