A1 - Muth, Thilo T1 - Critical Assessment of MetaProteome Investigation (CAMPI): A multi-laboratory comparison of established workflows N2 - Metaproteomics has matured into a powerful tool to assess functional interactions in microbial communities. While many metaproteomic workflows are available, the impact of method choice on results remains unclear. Here, we carry out a community-driven, multi-laboratory comparison in metaproteomics: the critical assessment of metaproteome investigation study (CAMPI). Based on well-established workflows, we evaluate the effect of sample preparation, mass spectrometry, and bioinformatic analysis using two samples: a simplified, laboratory-assembled human intestinal model and a human fecal sample. We observe that variability at the peptide level is predominantly due to sample processing workflows, with a smaller contribution of bioinformatic pipelines. These peptide-level differences largely disappear at the protein group level. While differences are observed for predicted community composition, similar functional profiles are obtained across workflows. CAMPI demonstrates the robustness of present-day metaproteomics research, serves as a template for multi-laboratory studies in metaproteomics, and provides publicly available data sets for benchmarking future developments.

T1 - Final report on CCQM-K47: Volatile organic compounds in methanol N2 - KEY COMPARISON At the October 2005 CCQM Organic Analysis Working Group Meeting (IRMM, Belgium), the decision was made to proceed with a Key Comparison study (CCQM-K47) addressing the calibration function for the determination of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) used for water quality monitoring. This was coordinated by CENAM and NIST. Benzene, o-xylene, m-xylene and p-xylene were chosen as representative VOCs. The solvent of choice was methanol. Key Comparison CCQM-K47 demonstrated the capabilities of participating NMIs to identify and measure the four target VOCs in a calibration solution using GC-based methods. The measurement challenges in CCQM-K47, such as avoiding volatility loss, achieving adequate chromatographic resolution and isolating potential interferences, are typical of those required for value-assigning volatile reference materials. Participants achieving comparable measurements for all four VOCs in this Key Comparison should be capable of providing reference materials and measurements for VOCs in solutions when present at concentration levels greater than 10 µg/g.

T1 - Characterizing the thermal diffusivity of single, micrometer-sized fibers via high-resolution lock-in thermography N2 - Many advanced materials consist of fibers. They are used as nonwovens, fabrics, or in composite materials. Characterization of individual fibers allows us to predict resulting material properties. We present a measurement setup and analysis software to characterize individual, micrometer-sized fibers fast and reliably. The setup is based on the lock-in thermography principle. Thermal diffusivity values of seven reference samples agree very well with previously reported values. We use our setup to investigate critical measurement parameters like excitation frequency, excitation power, pixel size, and fiber orientation. Our results show that fibers with subpixel diameters can be measured even if they are not aligned. However, special care has to be taken to choose an adequate excitation power. Measurements at high intensities can underestimate thermal diffusivity even though the raw data looks reasonable. By automatically measuring at different excitation powers, our setup solves this issue.

T1 - Photoacoustic thermal characterization of low thermal diffusivity thin films N2 - The photoacoustic measurement technique is a powerful yet underrepresented method to characterize the thermal transport properties of thin films. For the case of isotropic low thermal diffusivity samples, such as glasses or polymers, we demonstrate a general approach to extract the thermal conductivity with a high degree of significance. We discuss in particular the influence of thermal effusivity, thermal diffusivity, and sample layer thickness on the significance and accuracy of this measurement technique. These fundamental thermal properties guide sample and substrate selection to allow for a feasible thermal transport characterization. Furthermore, our data evaluation allows us to directly extract the thermal conductivity from this transient technique, without separate determination of the volumetric heat capacity, when appropriate boundary conditions are fulfilled. Using silica, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) thin films, and various substrates (quartz, steel, and silicon), we verify the quantitative correctness of our analytical approach.

T1 - Trends in gas sensor development for hydrogen safety N2 - Gas sensors are applied for facilitating the safe use of hydrogen in, for example, fuel cell and hydrogen fuelled vehicles. New sensor developments, aimed at meeting the increasingly stringent performance requirements in emerging applications are presented based on in-house technical developments and a literature study. The strategy of combining different detection principles, i.e. sensors based on electrochemical cells, semiconductors or field effects in combination with thermal conductivity sensor or catalytic combustion elements, in one new measuring system is reported. This extends the dynamic measuring range of the sensor while improving sensor reliability to achieve higher safety integrity through diverse redundancy. The application of new nanoscaled materials, nano wires, carbon tubes and graphene as well as the improvements in electronic components of fieldeffect, resistive-type and optical systems are evaluated in view of key operating parameters such as sensor response time, low energy consumption and low working temperature.

T1 - Volume imaging NDE and serial sectioning of carbon fiber composites N2 - A composite material is a combination of two or more materials with very different mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. The various forms of composite materials, due to their high material properties, are widely used as structural materials in the aviation, space, marine, automobile, and sports industries. However, some defects like voids, delamination, or inhomogeneous fiber distribution that form during the fabricating processes of composites can seriously affect the mechanical properties of the composite material. In this study, several imaging NDE techniques such as: thermography, high frequency eddy current, ultrasonic, x-ray radiography, x-ray laminography, and high resolution x-ray CT were conducted to characterize the microstructure of carbon fiber composites. Then, a 3D analysis was implemented by the destructive technique of serial sectioning for the same sample tested by the NDE methods. To better analyze the results of this work and extract a clear volume image for all features and defects contained in the composite material, an intensive comparison was conducted among hundreds of 3D-NDE and multi serial sections’ scan images showing the microstructure variation.

T1 - Design of Multimodal Absorption in the Mid-IR: A Metal Dielectric Metal Approach N2 - Specific control on the mid-infrared (mid-IR) Emission properties is attracting increasing attention for thermal camouflage and passive cooling applications. Metal−dielectric−metal (MDM) structures are well known to support strong magnetic polariton resonances in the optical and near-infrared range. We extend the current understanding of such an MDM structure by specifically designing Au disc arrays on top of ZnS−Au−Si substrates and pushing their resonances to the mid-IR regime. Therefore, we combine fabrication via lift-off photolithography with the finite element method and an inductance−capacitance model. With this combination of techniques, we demonstrate that the magnetic polariton resonance of the first order strongly depends on the individual disc diameter. Furthermore, the fabrication of multiple discs within one unit cell allows a linear combination of the fundamental resonances to conceive broadband absorptance. Quite importantly, even in mixed resonator cases, the absorptance spectra can be fully described by a superposition of the individual disc properties. Our contribution provides rational guidance to deterministically design mid-IR emitting materials with specific narrow- or broadband properties.
