Supramolecular interactions are vital processes in many chemical sensors, biochemical assays, and other analytical detection schemes. On the background of the current, rapidly developing, and constantly changing requirements for (bio)analytical techniques, the classical molecular host is increasingly overburdened to accomplish a specific analytical task with the desired selectivity and sensitivity. Instead, other signaling strategies have to be conceived that overcome the limits in signal output, dynamic range, or compound targeting, which are imminent to various traditional methods. A very promising approach is the combination of concepts of supramolecular chemistry with nanostructured or nanoscopic inorganic materials, that is, the development of hybrid sensor materials. Such hybrids often lead to improved functionality and enhanced performance, and the present chapter discusses the contributory features in relation to the major aspects, which are related to the enhanced coordination by the preorganization of binding sites, signal amplification by the preorganization on surfaces, aggregation‐mediated signaling, surface‐modification‐based signaling, the tuning of selectivity through polarity and size, and gated signaling.
Much has been published over the last years on finding the best (consensus) reference value (RV) for a given set of laboratory data attained in inter- or key comparisons (the latter with a specific view to the CIPM MRA). However, the discussion is ongoing. Except cases where real reference values are available from other sources, the quality of the (consensus value is of major importance in proficiency testing, method Validation, or reference material certification.
A distribution-free, self-consistent RV estimation approach has been developed which is based on the single criterion of participant's compatibility, at the cost of adjusted uncertainties. The final result is a fully compatible data set with minimum Overall variance, and adjusted uncertainties for those values reported which had to be made compatible with the (key comparison) reference value.
Any outlier discussion becomes obsolete, including considerations concerning different degrees of robustness of the various location and .dispersion estimators available. The penalty for "badly" performing laboratories is a large attributed uncertainty which forces them to either improve the measurement or adjust (i.e. reduce) their performance Claims. The evaluation algorithm is described. An example from a CCQM comparison is given, and consequences for the performance Claims of the participants discussed.
In der kunstreichen Stadt Augsburg wurde das Hinterglasgewerbe Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts eingefiihrt, setzte sich mit dem Hinterglasmaler Johann Wolfgang Baumgartner (1702 Ebbs, b. Kufstein -1761 Augsburg) in den Jahren 1733 bis 1746 fort, erfuhr ab der Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts, besonders zwischen 17S0 und 1800, eine wahre Blüte, um Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts langsam zu erlöschen. Augsburgs Hinterglasproduktion setzte im Vergleich zu benachbarten Städten spät ein, machte sich aber durch den umfänglichen Fernhandel einen großen Namen und die Stadt wurde zum führenden Zentrum des Handwerks. Mit seiner überzeugenden Umsetzung der grafischen Vorlagen in hintermalte Bildwerke hat Baumgartner einen entscheidenden Impuls zur Ansiedlung der Hinterglasmalerei gegeben.
The widely held incorrect belief in the self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA) diving community, that oxygen-enriched gas mixtures, so-called NITROX, with an oxygen content of up to 40 vol. % can be considered as regular air, has already been refuted in many papers. Now, another dangerous practice has drawn the attention. In a market study, more than 60 representative SCUBA cylinder valves were examined. Sales offices claim that all of those valves can be used for oxygen-enriched gas mixtures. The fact is that some of these cylinder valves are for air use only. By exchanging the nonmetallic materials and applying additional cleaning procedures, these air valves become so-called “oxygen clean.” Then, the valves are on sale for oxygen-enriched service. This procedure is dangerous because the labeling pretends a pseudo-safety. All of the 60 SCUBA cylinder valves were tested applying the standardized oxygen pressure surge tester at BAM. As suspected, many of the cylinder valves are not burn-out safe. In addition, different test results were received for actual new valves, for so-called new but temporarily stored valves, and for used valves. This paper reveals another dangerous practice and wants to alert the SCUBA diving community.
