The New York Section of the Society for Applied Spectroscopy is currently soliciting nominations for its 2009 Gold Medal Award.
Nominations are being sought for the 2009 Gold Medal Award of the New York Section of the Society for Applied Spectroscopy. This coveted award was established in 1952 to recognize outstanding contributions to the field of applied spectroscopy. The Gold Medal will be presented at a special award symposium, arranged in honor of the awardee, at the 2009 Eastern Analytical Symposium. A nominating letter describing the nominee's specific accomplishments should be submitted along with a biographical sketch by December 31, 2008. Please send all materials to Deborah Peru, Colgate Palmolive Co., 909 River Road, Piscataway, NJ 08833, or by email to: debbie_peru@colpal.com.

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.
