Authoritative, focused reviews help to address this problem but become so granular that the overall directions of the field are lost. This broader perspective can be provided partially by general overviews but then the thinking, experimental details, theoretical underpinnings and instrumental innovations of the original work must be sacrificed. In the present compilation, this dilemma is overcome by assembling the most impactful publications in the area of analytical atomic spectrometry. Each entry was proposed by at least one current expert in the field and supported by a narrative that justifies its inclusion. The entries were then assembled into a coherent sequence and returned to contributors for a round-robin review.

Our results reveal control of the aggregation-induced spectroscopic changes and the packing motifs of the dye molecules in the solid state by the chemical nature and structure of the second nitrogen-containing donor, i.e., a planar and a rigid julolidine or a twisted triphenyl group. Assuming that the TMT and TMJ aggregates show a comparable arrangement of the molecules to the respective crystals, these different molecular interactions in the solid state are responsible for aggregation induced emission (AIE) in the case of TMT and its absence for TMJ. Moreover, a versatile strategy for the fluorescence enhancement of only weakly emissive AIE dyes is shown, turning these dyes into bright nanoscale fluorescent reporters by using them as stains for preformed polymer particles.

A1 - Resch-Genger, Ute T1 - Lifetime encoding in flow cytometry for bead‑based sensing of biomolecular interaction N2 - To demonstrate the potential of time-resolved flow cytometry (FCM) for bioanalysis, clinical diagnostics, and optically encoded bead-based assays, we performed a proof-of-principle study to detect biomolecular interactions utilizing fluorescence lifetime (LT)-encoded micron-sized polymer beads bearing target-specific bioligands and a recently developed prototype lifetime flow cytometer (LT-FCM setup). This instrument is equipped with a single excitation light source and different fluorescence detectors, one operated in the photon-counting mode for time-resolved measurements of fluorescence decays and three detectors for conventional intensity measurements in different spectral windows. First, discrimination of bead-bound biomolecules was demonstrated in the time domain exemplarily for two targets, Streptavidin (SAv) and the tumor marker human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). In a second step, the determination of biomolecule concentration levels was addressed representatively for the inflammation-related biomarker tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) utilizing fluorescence intensity measurements in a second channel of the LT-FCM instrument. Our results underline the applicability of LT-FCM in the time domain for measurements of biomolecular interactions in suspension assays. In the future, the combination of spectral and LT encoding and multiplexing and the expansion of the time scale from the lower nanosecond range to the longer nanosecond and the microsecond region is expected to provide many distinguishable codes. This enables an increasing degree of multiplexing which could be attractive for high throughput screening applications.

T1 - Bestimmung von VOC-Emissionen aus Verbraucherprodukten in mikroskaligen Emissionsprüfkammern: Ergebnisse eines Rundversuchs T1 - Determining VOC Emissions from Consumer Products in Micro-Scale Emission Test Chambers: Results of a Round Robin Test N2 - Die Bestimmung der Anfangskonzentrationen flüchtiger organischer Verbindungen, die innerhalb der ersten Stunden des Gebrauchs aus Verbraucherprodukten emittiert werden, wurde in einem Ringversuch getestet, bei dem Mikro-Kammern verwendet wurden. Neun Labore nahmen an dem Ringversuch teil, der sich aus zwei Teilen zusammensetzte: Im ersten Teil wurde die analytische Leistungsfähigkeit beurteilt. Jedes beteiligte Labor erhielt zwei mit Analyten dotierte Tenax® TA Desorptionsröhrchen zur Qualitätskontrolle (QC). Im zweiten Teil führte jedes Labor Emissionsmessungen über einen Zeitraum von 48 Stunden in Mikro-Kammern mit Volumina von 44 oder 114 ml durch. Als Probenmaterial dienten Stücke eines Regenponchos, der Cyclohexanon, Phenol, 2-Ethylhexanol, Naphthalin und Isophoron in signifikanten Konzentrationen emittierte. Für den QC-Test wurden sehr geringe relative Standardabweichungen (9 14 %) erhalten. Die Ergebnisse der Emissionsmessungen waren ebenfalls sehr gut. In der frühen Phase (0,5 4 Stunden) wurden akzeptable z-Scores (|z| ≤ 2,00) von mindestens sieben Laboren erhalten, nach 24 und 48 Stunden erhielten alle Labore akzeptable z-Scores.

T1 - Co-Cultivation of Fusarium, Alternaria, and Pseudomonas on Wheat-Ears Affects Microbial Growth and Mycotoxin Production N2 - Mycotoxigenic fungal pathogens Fusarium and Alternaria are a leading cause of loss in cereal production. On wheat-ears, they are confronted by bacterial antagonists such as pseudomonads. Studies on these groups’ interactions often neglect the infection process’s temporal aspects and the associated priority effects. In the present study, the focus was on how the first colonizer affects the subsequent ones. In a climate chamber experiment, wheat-ears were successively inoculated with two different strains (Alternaria enuissima At625, Fusarium graminearum Fg23, or Pseudomonas simiae Ps9). Over three weeks, microbial abundances and mycotoxin concentrations were analyzed and visualized via Self Organizing Maps with Sammon Mapping (SOM-SM). All three strains revealed different characteristics and strategies to deal with co-inoculation: Fg23, as the first colonizer, suppressed the establishment of At625 and Ps9. Nevertheless, primary inoculation of At625 reduced all of the Fusarium toxins and stopped Ps9 from establishing. Ps9 showed priority effects in delaying and blocking the production of the fungal mycotoxins. The SOM-SM analysis visualized the competitive strengths: Fg23 ranked first, At625 second, Ps9 third. Our findings of species-specific priority effects in a natural environment and the role of the mycotoxins involved are relevant for developing biocontrol strategies.
