Journal Highlight: 3T-MRI analysis of epidermis and dermis moisturizing using the T2-mapping sequence

Date: May 20, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

T2-mapping in MRI has been applied to assess basal free water content of the epidermis and dermis and to search for an increase in free water content after applying a moisturizing cream.

Heavy metals in your hibiscus: Infusion refusal

Date: May 15, 2013

Author: David Bradley

Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS) have been used to determine concentrations of metals in digests and infusions of Hibiscus sabdariffa (petals), Rosa canina (receptacles), Ginkgo biloba (leaves), Cymbopogon citratus (leaves), Aloe vera (leaves) and Panax ginseng (roots).

Acoustic archaeology: A sound approach

Date: May 15, 2013

Author: David Bradley

Researchers in the UK have carried out the most detailed analysis ever of the archaeological remains of the lost medieval town of Dunwich on England's Suffolk coast. The study analysed data obtained via acoustic spectroscopy to see the ruins through the murky depths of the North Sea.

Combined effort: Spectroscopic cancer clues under the microscope

Date: May 15, 2013

Author: David Bradley

A combination of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy could provide oncologists and cancer researchers with a new way to probe how cancer cells spread in the body through metastasis as well as other disease-related processes.

Journal Highlight: X-ray fluorescence analysis of Co, Ni, Pd, Ag, and Au in the scrapped printed-circuit-board ash

Date: May 7, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

A validated method for the measurement of Co, Ni, Pd, Ag, and Au in ash derived from scrapped printed circuit boards used X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and gave similar results to those from atomic absorption spectrometry.
