TY - CONF A1 - Rosner, M. T1 - Intercomparison of delta26Mg Values in Mg Isotope RMs and Standards N2 - Accurate measurements of stable isotope abundance ratio variations are often reported using artifact based delta-scales, which rely on suitable isotopic reference materials (iRM) for their realization. For example, variations in the 26Mg/24Mg isotope abundance ratio in natural systems are typically reported as delta26Mg values that represents the relative difference between the 26Mg/24Mg ratio measured in a sample relative to its measurement preferably in an iRM. In the past, such delta26Mg measurements were referenced to NIST SRM 980, the initial zero of the delta26Mg scale. With the development of MC-ICPMS, the detection of small but measurable isotopic differences in different chips of SRM 980 became apparent. It was then replaced by a Mg solution (DSM3), the new zero of the delta26Mg scale. A potential replacement iRM for DSM3 has been developed, ERM-AE143. This iRM has also been measured for its absolute isotope amount ratios1,2 making it traceable to the SI. The results of an delta26Mg intercomparison experiment include the Mg iRMs SRM 980, IRMM-009, ERM-AE143, AE144, AE145 standards DSM3 and Cambridge-1. The intercomparison involved 5 expert laboratories, consisting of 3 national metrological institutes (BAM, NIST, PTB) and 2 scientific research laboratories (GFZ Potsdam, UBremen). The iRMs were measured relative to AE143 and cover a range of ≈5 ‰ in delta26Mg. IRMM-009 has the lowest delta26Mg value while DSM3 has the highest, spanning a range in values that covers natural Mg isotope variations. The 2SD reproducibilities of the individual values from the different laboratories range from 0.02 to 0.26 ‰. The mean delta26Mg values, calculated from the laboratory means however show 2SD reproducibilities varing between 0.025 and 0.093 ‰. Propagated measurement uncertainties suggest a standard uncertainty of about 0.1‰ for delta26Mg determinations. 1 JAAS, 2015, 31,179; 2JAAS, 2016, 31, 1440 T2 - Goldschmidt Conference 2017 CY - Paris, France DA - 13.08.2017 KW - Magnesium delta scale KW - Isotope reference material KW - Intercalibration PY - 2017 AN - OPUS4-43995 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Torge, Manfred T1 - Determination of lost paint layers by scanning electron microskopy N2 - The identification of external paint layers on medieval stained glass windows in Lincoln Cathedral is not only of interest for art historians but is also important for the development of conservation proposals.

We have developed a new strategy of labeling of antibody (it can specific binds to proteins) by nanoparticles and quantum dots which is composed of thousands of atoms and thus increases the sensitivity enormously and of course decreases the Limit of detection, compare to lanthanoids labeling. The ability of successfully tagged antibodies bound to Antigen (protein) was proved by dot blot on membrane imaged by LA-ICP-MS.

A1 - Kruschwitz, Sabine T1 - Evaluation of different laboratory NMR devices in a tripartite round robin test N2 - Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a well established laboratory / borehole method to characterize the storage and transport properties of rocks due to its direct sensitivity to the corresponding pore fluid saturation (water or oil) and pore sizes. For petrophysical applications there are several different NMR laboratory devices commercially available varying over a wide range of e.g. magnetic field strength / frequency (2 MHz to 30 MHz), applicable measurement protocols (T1, T2, T1-T2, T2-D, etc.) and sample sizes (2.5 cm to 10 cm in diameter). In this work we present NMR measurements, layed out in a round robin like manner, on a set of 20 sandstone samples. We use three different NMR devices containing two standard setups with homogenous magnetic fields (LIAG and RWTH) and one single-sided setup with gradient field (BGR) to measure T1 and T2 relaxation data. In our evaluation we especially focus on the comparison of the individually inverted relaxation time distributions to quantify the differences arising from different laboratory setups. Diverging results can be deduced on the one hand to the inherit differences between homogeneous and gradient fields but on the other hand also due to quality differences between the two homogeneous setups. Additionally, we also examine the influence of the individually chosen inversion parameters (signal processing, distribution sampling points, error weighting, regularization, etc.) to establish a general standardized best practice recommendation for future petrophysical NMR laboratory measurements.

In the last few years there has been a growing interest in applications of LIBS in the field of agriculture. As part of the National Research Strategy BioEconomy 2030 the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) started an innovation programme called BonaRes. BonaRes consists of ten interdisciplinary research project associations which are dealing with soil as a sustainable resource for the bio-economy. One of these research projects is I4S (intelligence for soil) which has the goal to develop an integrated system for site-specific soil fertility management. This system includes a sensor platform, which contains different sensors, like XRF, VIS-NIR, Gamma and LIBS. The main task of LIBS measurements in this project is the real time determination of the elemental contents of nutrients in soils, like calcium, magnesium, potassium. For this purpose, a special setup has been designed. The sample uptake operates with the help of a rotatable sample plate which circulates with different velocities to simulate the application on the field. To provide a higher intensity and a better reproducibility of the obtained signal, a double-pulse Nd:YAG laser was used. In order to minimize dust formation from the soil during the operation of the laser, a dust removal by suction has been integrated. When using relative methods such as LIBS, a suitable calibration curve is needed for absolute quantification. With the help of 16 certified reference soils, calibration curves for different elements were initially calculated and used for the quantification of seven soil samples from different testing grounds in Germany. The complex matrix of soils, as well as the influence of moisture and grain size in soils makes the absolute quantification by LIBS challenging. To overcome these influences, a calibration curve based on multivariate analysis (partial least square regression) was generated.

Proficiency testing providers attract up to a thousand of participants in PT schemes purely oriented on qualitative results. The RM used for these kinds of PT are poorly regulated, nevertheless with a more and more general acceptance of accreditation in the field of RM production and PT provision, there is an ever increasing interest in assessing producers and providers according to rules already well accepted in the field of quantitative analysis. The basic governing document, ISO 17034:2016, is written in a form that, at least for the overwhelming majority of requirements, may be applied to both qualitative and quantitative RM. However, problems remain. In particular, the expression of uncertainty of a purely qualitative result is still unresolved, and under discussion, the latter now lasting already dozens of years. Some handles would be needed. In the poster, existing approaches and some pragmatic, new ways to tackle the problem are displayed and discussed.

A low radiation dosage during data acquisition and, therefore, less x-ray beam induced damage of the sample is achieved by recording STXM images only at two predetermined energies of maximum absorption contrast, instead of recording a stack of images across the whole absorption edge. A model core-shell nanoparticle, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) cores with polystyrene (PS) shell, is used for demonstration. Near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy confirms the significant difference in x-ray absorption behavior between PTFE and PS. Additionally, due to the insolubility of styrene in PTFE a well-defined interface between particle core and shell is expected. In order to validate the STXM results, both the naked PTFE cores as well as the complete core-shell nanoparticles are examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The introduced STXM based methodology yields particle dimensions in good agreement with the SEM results (deviation equal or less than 10%) and provides additional information such as the position of the particle core which cannot be extracted from a SEM micrograph.
