With this technique, called terahertz calorimetry, they investigated the properties of the hydration shell of dissolved alcohol molecules.

Read More Management Tips How Project Management Techniques Can Improve Research Without established performance measures by which to track progress, it can feel like a race against time to produce results It’s easy to get caught up in a rat race when conducting scientific research. Basic research, often carried out in an academic-type setting, tends to be hypothesis-driven or exploratory in nature rather than product-driven as in industry. Read More Feature Article Rat Study May Address Issue of Experiment Reproducibility Disagreements on how rats process odors may be due to overlooked differences in experimental design Researchers set out to resolve a 15-year-old scientific dispute about how rats process odors. What they found not only settles that argument, but it also suggests an explanation for the much written-about “replication crisis” in some fields of science.

But when it comes to attracting commercial interest, these technologies compete with a petroleum-based production pipeline that has been perfected over the course of decades. Read More White Papers and Application Notes Trace Hormone Analysis by LC-MS An increasing number of studies report the presence of trace levels of hormones in drinking water, as some of these compounds are not fully removed by traditional water treatment processes. This raises concerns regarding the purity of LC-MS grade water, since it is always produced from tap water. This study investigates the suitability of a water purification system for producing LC-MS hypergrade water for trace analyses of hormones, regardless of whether the tap water was contaminated or not.
