Quantitative elemental analysis of human leukemia K562 single cells by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry in combination with a microdroplet generator.

It is thus highly suited for single-cell elemental analysis since it does not affect the cell’s structure, resulting in highly efficient detection of the cells.

Lignin molecular property discovery could help turn trees into affordable, greener industrial chemicals by North Carolina State University Editors' notes ...

Base edited poplar trees produce high-performance, structural wood without the use of chemicals or energy intensive processing.

Researchers decreased the amount of lignin in poplar tree wood, making it stronger and slower to deteriorate.

Elemental analysis techniques like ICP-OES, XRF, and FT-IR ensure water safety by detecting contaminants and pollutants. This article will explore this further.

Elemental analysis via EDXRF and WDXRF is key in identifying PM sources, aiding air quality management and pollution control strategies.

Wang, Barrangou and their colleagues wondered if they could genetically edit poplar trees, which are widely used to make paper, to have a lower concentration of lignin while maintaining their ...

However, elemental analysis is not without its problems or measurement challenges. 2 There are ISO standards that govern the performance of elemental analysis methods with recommended procedures.

Scientists have now engineered a new type of poplar with more of this valuable chemical and less lignin overall. This results in wood that is easier to deconstruct and more valuable.
