UC Riverside: New computer language helps spot hidden pollutants. “Developed at UC Riverside, Mass Query Language, or MassQL, functions like a search engine for mass spectrometry data, enabling researchers to find patterns that would otherwise require advanced programming skills. Technical details about the language, and an example of how it helped identify flame retardant chemicals in public […]

A life without Fourier Transformation? How would it look for #NMR hero (fast, fearless and thoroughly) Christian Griesinger @mpi_nat? He decided to celebrate his “two to the power of six” birthday today and invited the international community to exchange about “Future of NMR #spectroscopy and more” at the Manfred Eigen Lecture Hall in Göttingen.

#Spidroin can be stored in a spider in high concentrations for a long time and then on command form the spider’s silk in a split second, which is 6 times more stable than a thread of the same weight made of steel. HORST KESSLER uses this example in his #autobiography to show what #NMR #spectroscopy can achieve. It will be published on December 16, see https://l-i-c.org/1132
This #PaperoftheMonth reflects the sum of work for the development of a quick + easy strategy for the determination of the protein relative concentration in individual human cells by single cell-inductively coupled plasma-time-of-flight mass #spectrometry: https://www.bam.de/Content/EN/Paper-of-the-Month/2023/Analytical-Sciences/2023-10-04-paper-of-the-month-analytical-sciences.html

Les nuages m'ont empêché d'aller titiller des nébuleuses planétaires plus compliquées que celle de l'oeil du chat (C6, très brillante).
On comprend vite pourquoi elle parait si bleue à l'oculaire! Une seule pose de 30sec.
Il me faudra aussi aller voir la nébuleuse historique NGC7027 avant d'aller vers les plus complexes à mesurer.
Tout ça est très motivant et excitant!
