This study deals with O(2)(-) generation in corona discharge (CD) in point to plane geometry for single flow ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) with gas outlet located behind the ionization source. We have designed CD of special geometry in order to achieve the high O(2)(-) yield. Using this ion source we have achieved in zero air conditions that up to 74% all negative ions were O(2)(-) or O(2)(-)(H(2)O). It has been demonstrated that the non-electronegative nitrogen positively influences the efficiency of O(2)(-) generation in O(2)/N(2) mixtures. The reduced ion mobility of 2.27 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1) has been measured for O(2)(-)/O(2)(-)(H(2)O) ions in zero air. Additional ions detected in zero air (less than 200 ppb CO(2)) using the mass spectrometric and IMS technique were, NO(2)(-), N(2)O(2)(-) (2.37 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1)), NO(3)(-), N(2)O(3)(-) and N(2)O(3)(-)(H(2)O). The CO(3)(-) and CO(4)(-) ions have been detected after the introduction of 5 ppm CO(2) into zero air.

Thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (HThz), a thiazolothiazole (TTz) derivative with carboxylic acid groups, was synthesized as a ligand for the creation of five MOFs, each associated with distinct metal ions including Ag, Mn, Co, Zn, and Cu. The cathodic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of HThz and the resulting MOFs was investigated. HThz was found to generate ECL signals, but this process was heavily reliant on potassium persulfate (KSO) as a co-reactant.

Ion exchange chromatography (IEX) is an important analytical technique for the characterization of biotechnology-derived products, such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and more recently, cell and gene therapy products such as messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and adeno-associated viruses (AAVs). This review paper first outlines the basic principles and separation mechanisms of IEX for charge variant separation of biotherapeutics, and examines the different elution modes based on salt or pH gradients. It then highlights several recent trends when applying IEX for the characterization of biotechnology-derived products, including: i) the effective use of pH gradients, ii) the improvement of selectivity by using organic solvents in the mobile phase, multi-step gradients, or by combining ion pairing and ion exchange, and iii) the increase in analytical throughput using ultra-short columns or automated screening of conditions.

LiFePO (LFP) typically requires a conductive additive to improve its low ion and electron conductivity. In this study, we achieved significant enhancements in Li and electron mobility by applying a minimal amount of conductive material through a new coating process. The coin cell demonstrated an excellent capacity of 157.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe report the first implementation of ion mobility mass spectrometry combined with an ultra-high throughput sample introduction technology for high throughput screening (HTS). The system integrates differential ion mobility (DMS) with acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS), termed DAEMS, enabling the simultaneous quantitation of structural isomers that are the sub-strates and products of isomerase mediated reactions in intermediary metabolism. We demonstrate this potential by comparing DAEMS to a luminescence assay for the isoform of phosphoglycerate mutase (iPGM) distinctively present in pathogens offering an opportunity as a drug target for a variety of microbial and parasite borne diseases.

Realizing this potential, however, requires a thorough understanding of the basal cellular mechanisms which occur during differentiation. Lipids are critical molecules that define the morphological, biochemical, and functional role of cells.
