Are You Sure Your ICP-MS Interferences Are Under Control?
In this summary, we will discuss how triple-quadrupole ICP-MS resolves interferences and improves accuracy for difficult elements and challenging applications. We will illustrate this with examples from a variety of applications. We will also present the new Agilent 8900 ICP-QQQ, which provides increased sensitivity, even lower detection limits, and hardware developments that provide greater flexibility to address emerging applications.

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.
