Prabha Dwivedi et al.
Analytical chemistry, 78(24), 8200-8206 (2006-12-15)
This article introduces the concept of chiral ion mobility spectrometry (CIMS) and presents examples demonstrating the gas-phase separation of enantiomers of a wide range of racemates including pharmaceuticals, amino acids, and carbohydrates. CIMS is similar to traditional ion mobility spectrometry
Charles O Stanier et al.
Environmental science & technology, 41(8), 2756-2763 (2007-05-31)
The temperature-dependence of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) concentrations is measured using a temperature-controlled smog chamber. Aerosols are generated from reaction of alpha-pinene (14-150 ppb) and ozone at a constant temperature of 22 +/- 2 degrees C in the presence of
H Yasui et al.
Bulletin of entomological research, 102(2), 157-164 (2011-09-29)
A serious sugarcane pest, Dasylepida ishigakiensis, remains in the soil during most of its life cycle except for a short period for mating. Mating disruption by an artificial release of the sex pheromone (R)-2-butanol (R2B), therefore, may be a feasible
Robert Brosnan et al.
Anesthesia and analgesia, 103(1), 86-91 (2006-06-23)
Chirality has been proposed as a means for distinguishing relevant from irrelevant molecular targets of action, but the sensitivity and specificity of this test is unknown for volatile anesthetics. We applied enantiomers of two chiral anesthetic alcohols (2-butanol and 2-pentanol)
Ravi K Pathak et al.
Environmental science & technology, 46(21), 11660-11669 (2012-09-19)
Limonene has a strong tendency to form secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in the atmosphere and in indoor environments. Initial oxidation occurs mainly via ozone or OH radical chemistry. We studied the effect of O(3) concentrations with or without a OH
