1021. A designed experiments approach to optimizing MALDI-TOF MS spectrum processing parameters enhances detection of antibiotic resistance in Campylobacter jejuni
Date: 02-06-16 

MALDI-TOF MS has been utilized as a reliable and rapid tool for microbial fingerprinting at the genus and species levels. Recently, there has been keen interest in using MALDI-TOF MS beyond the genus

1022. Pyroelectricity of Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 films grown by sol-gel process on silicon
Date: 16-03-16 

Pyroelectric Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 films have been grown by sol–gel process on Si(001). Intrinsic pyroelectric coefficient has been measured through ferroelectric loops recorded at different

… excess inhibits their formation. Using the surface-sensitive, quantitative X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy…

1024. Impact of endocrine disruptors on the thyroid hormone system
Date: 18-01-16 

The thyroid hormone (TH) system plays a central role in central physiological processes of many species, including mammals and humans, ranging from growth and cell differentiation, energy metabolism,

1025. Tailoring the room temperature ferroelectric/paraelectric state in polycrystalline (Ba0.70Sr0.30)TiO3 thin films for silicon compatible integration
Date: 07-10-15 

Polycrystalline (Ba0.70Sr0.30)TiO3 (BST) thin films were prepared by ion beam sputtering and postdeposition annealing method, and their crystallization kinetics was monitored in situ. It was found

1026. High-resolution high-sensitivity elemental imaging by secondary ion mass spectrometry: from traditional 2D and 3D imaging to correlative microscopy
Date: 07-10-15 

Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) constitutes an extremely sensitive technique for imaging surfaces in 2D and 3D. Apart from its excellent sensitivity and high lateral resolution (50 nm on

1027. Thermal analysis goes with mass spectrometry to evaluate the molecular weight of a fluorinated plasma polymer
Date: 24-09-15 

A combination of thermal analysis (differential scanning calorimetry DSC) and mass spectrometry (MS) has been proposed to estimate the molecular weight (MW) of fluorinated plasma polymers, not

1028. Quantitative analysis of proteome extracted from barley crowns grown under different drought conditions
Date: 31-08-15 

Barley cultivar Amulet was used to study the quantitative proteome changes through different drought conditions utilizing two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). Plants were

1029. Elucidating the formation of terra fuscas using Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes and rare earth elements
Date: 12-08-15 

Carbonate weathering mantles, like terra fusca, are common in Europe but their formation and evolution is still badly understood. We propose to combine geological, mineralogical and pedological

1030. Development of an FgMito assay: A highly sensitive mitochondrial based qPCR assay for quantification of Fusarium graminearum sensu stricto
Date: 18-06-15 

An ascomycete fungus, Fusarium graminearum sensu stricto (s.s.), is the major cause of Fusarium head blight (FHB), a devastating disease of cereals worldwide. The fungus contaminates crops with
