A pulsed valve was used to increase the pressure within the trapping region of a low-pressure linear ion trap by situating the pulsed valve close to the ion trapping region. The pressure was estimated to increase from a background pressure of 3.5e-5 Torr of nitrogen to 0.49 mTorr at the center of the trap. The increased pressure allowed excitation periods to be reduced from 100 to 25 ms without suffering losses in MS/MS efficiency during dipolar excitation. The reduction in excitation period translates into an increase in the overall duty cycle of the scan.

Genome graphs, including the recently released draft human pangenome graph, can represent the breadth of genetic diversity and thus transcend the limits of traditional linear reference genomes. However, there are no genome-graph-compatible tools for analyzing whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) data. To close this gap, we introduce methylGrapher, a tool tailored for accurate DNA methylation analysis by mapping WGBS data to a genome graph.

In an effort to improve safety and cycling stability of liquid electrolytes, the use of dicarbonates has been explored. In this study, four dicarbonate structures with varying end groups and spacers are investigated. The effect of these structural differences on the physical and ion transport properties is elucidated, showing that the end group has a significant influence on ion transport.

A simple and efficient validated assay for quantifying 21-deoxycortisol (21-DOC), 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), cortisol, and cortisone in human plasma has been developed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Analysis of plasma samples were performed on Atlantis dC18 (3 m) column using a mobile phase of 20.0 mM ammonium acetate and acetonitrile (50:50, : ) that was delivered at isocratic flow rate 0.

Carbon dots (CDs) are emerging novel fluorescent sensing nanomaterials owing to their tunable optical properties, biocompatibility, and eco-friendliness. Herein, we report a facile one-pot hydrothermal route for the synthesis of highly green fluorescent CDs using gallic acid (GA) as a single carbon source in ,-dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent, which serves as a nitrogen source and reaction medium. The optical properties of the synthesized GA-DMF CDs were systematically characterized by using UV-vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy, revealing strong green fluorescence.

Cyanido-bridged multimetallic complexes have been extensively studied for their potential applications in molecular electronics and spintronics. The design of these complexes involves the strategic placement of metal centers and the use of cyanide bridges to facilitate electron transfer between metal ions. The challenges in this field include the precise control of the electronic states and the stability of the complexes under various conditions.
