APP OF THE MONTH: X-ray Transitions Energies Mobile App
OFFERED BY: SGX Sensortech
PLATFORMS: Android (2.3.3 and up), iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch (requires iOS 5.0). This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
WHAT IT DOES: With a reverse look-up function, this app is designed to allow the user to specify a transition energy value in keV and will automatically determine and display the elements and ‘lines’ closest to this value. It reportedly allows the user to select an element and displays the X-ray transition energies for this element. Values are based on experimental values. Where experimental values are not available, the database uses theoretically derived values. The app also includes a database with general properties for each element.

Best of the Week: EAS Conference Coverage, IR Spectroscopy, Microplastics
November 22nd 2024Top articles published this week include highlights from the Eastern Analytical Symposium, a news article about the infrared (IR) spectroscopy market, and a couple of news articles recapping spectroscopic analysis of microplastics.
FT-IR Analysis of pH and Xylitol Driven Conformational Changes of Ovalbumin–Amide VI Band Study
November 21st 2024This study uses Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to analyze how the globular protein ovalbumin's secondary structures transition under varying pH conditions in the presence of the cosolvent xylitol, highlighting the role of noncovalent interactions in these conformational changes.
