Cytokines play a key role in this immune response cascade and in determining the type of response (e.g., Type 1 or Type 2). Currently, the techniques for staging clinical disease progress with these underlying inflammatory processes are constrained and predominantly dependent on the invasive examin...
Bile salts are important surfactants found in bile in the human body. They mainly exist in the form of simple micelles and mixed micelles combined with phospholipids. Their main functions are to transport cholesterol to promote excretion, transport lipids in food, and Promote absorption, therefore t...
Spectroscopy and spectrometry are terms that are often used interchangeably but there are some subtle differences in their exact meanings. This article looks at the differences between the two and their applications.
X-ray crystallography, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry and UV/visible and IR spectroscopy are some of the instrumental techniques available for analysis. IR spectroscopy has emerged as one of the most popular experimental tools due to its capabilities in providing a broad range ...
Molybdenum-loaded HZSM-5 zeolites are promising catalysts for the conversion of methane to benzene under non-oxidative conditions. The acidic sites in HZSM-5 zeolites are thought to play an important role in the aromatization of the primary
How would NMR (^1H or ^13C) spectroscopy be used to distinguish between the following pairs of compounds? (IMAGE) Compare spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. What types of applications are best suited for each? What is analytical chemistry?
spectroscopy compared to high field NMR,benchtop NMRs are more versatile, simpler to use and require minimal maintenance. The capability to operate these compact systems in new environments provides some completely novel applications. For example, placing an NMR system next to your reaction vessel ...
These properties are challenging to determine as interfacial phases are thin, disordered, heterogeneous, and can be very reactive. The recent developments and applications of solid state NMR spectroscopy in the study of interfacial phenomena in rechargeable batteries based on lithium and sodium ...
This is known as optical spectroscopy (or spectrometry). The name 'optical spectrometer' is a broad term, as there are a number of different types of optical spectrometer. These are usually defined by the range of the electromagnetic spectrum that they cover, but can also be distinguished by ...
Multiparametric segmentation techniques, which require integration of 2 or more MRI sequences, are the newest method.13 In one study,56 for example, proton-density and T2-weighted sequences and T1- and T2-weighted images were combined and used to calculate lesion area.47 These approaches provide...
