Double-pulse and single-pulse laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy for distinguishing between gaseous and particulate phase analytes
We explore the use of a combination of double-pulse and single-pulse laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) methodologies as a means of differentiating between solid-phase and gaseous-phase analytes (namely, carbon) in an aerosol stream. A range of spectral data was recorded for double-pulse ... (Source: Applied Optics)

Ig Nobel tour showcases the bra that doubles as a gas mask
'The idea of a simple and readily available mask came to me after the Chernobyl nuclear accident in Ukraine'Last October, at Harvard University, I was awarded the Ig Nobel prize for public health for inventing the Emergency Bra, an item of lingerie that, in case of an emergency, can be quickly transformed into two protective respiratory face masks.Don't get too excited, boys: this can be done without removing any clothes.My Ig Nobel nomination came as a pleasant surprise. And I recognised that this competitive prize for "scientific achievements that first make people laugh and then make them think" is hugely popular and a great opportunity to deliver a message on emergency preparedness to the public.I admit that disaster preparedness is not the most enthralling discussion topic, but it is ...

Analysis of Terpene Lactones in a Ginkgo Leaf Extract by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Using Charged Aerosol Detection.
Authors: Kakigi Y, Mochizuki N, Icho T, Hakamatsuka T, Goda Y A new HPLC method using charged aerosol detection was developed for the determination of terpene lactones in a Ginkgo leaf extract. The linearity of the standard curves was excellent (r>0.999). The repeatability of the method was less than 3%, and its reproducibility was less than 5% for each analyte. The limit of detection was between 0.087 and 0.45 mug/ml. The developed method was applied to the analysis of terpene lactones in Ginkgo leaf products distributed in the Japanese market. The results suggest that some health food products contained approximately equivalent amounts of terpene lactones to those in the medical product and that the proportion of terpene lactones varied in each health product.

Determination of tropospheric aerosol characteristics by spectral measurements of solar radiation using a compact, stand-alone spectroradiometer
We developed a method for characterizing atmospheric properties from ground-based, spectral measurements of direct and scattered solar radiation under clear sky conditions. A compact spectroradiometer is employed for radiation measurement in the wavelength range between 350 and 1050 nm with a ... (Source: Applied Optics)
