For the vast majority of ellipsometric measurements, the application of planar substrates is mandatory and requires a proper sample alignment prior to the measurement. Here, the authors present a generalized approach of how to extract the isotropic ellipsometric sample parameters from an imaging Mueller-matrix measurement even if the sample is significantly misaligned. They validate the method by layer-thickness calculations based on imaging Mueller-matrix measurements of flat crystalline silicon samples that were misaligned on purpose. Furthermore, they also exploit this method’s capabilities to perform spatially resolved layer-thickness measurements of a single-layer indium-tin-oxide coating on a fused-silica microlens without the need of realignment or repositioning of the sample during the measurement.
For reliability and safety issues of injection wells, corrosion resistance of materials used needs to be determined. Herein, representative low-cost materials, including carbon steel X70/1.8977 and low alloyed steel 1.7225, were embedded in mortar to mimic the realistic casing-mortar interface. Two types of cement were investigated: (1) Dyckerhoff Variodur commercial Portland cement, representing a highly acidic resistant cement and (2) Wollastonite, which can react with CO2 and become stable under a CO2 stream due to the carbonation process. Exposure tests were performed under 10 MPa and at 333 K in artificial aquifer fluid for up to 20 weeks, revealing crevice corrosion and uniform corrosion instead of expected pitting corrosion. To clarify the role of cement, simulated pore water was made by dispersing cement powder in aquifer fluid and used as a solution to expose steels. Surface analysis, accompanied by element mapping on exposed specimens and their crosssections, was carried out to trace the chloride intrusion and corrosion process that followed.
Ein zentrales Fundament moderner Gesellschaften ist eine intakte Abwasserinfrastruktur. Schäden infolge biogener Schwefelsäurekorrosion von konventionellen Betonen haben jedoch zu einem erheblichen Sanierungsbedarf geführt. Alkaliaktivierte Mörtel besitzen aufgrund eines hohen Säurewiderstands das Potential, einen Beitrag zur langfristigen Lösung dieses Problems zu leisten. Dazu müssen jedoch zunächst die Faktoren, die den Haftverbund zwischen diesen Mörteln und dem Betonsubstrat bestimmen, besser verstanden werden, um die Eigenschaften der Beschichtungssysteme gezielt anpassen und verbessern zu können. Die vorliegende Arbeit liefert hierzu einen Beitrag und zeigt dadurch Wege zu einer technisch machbaren und nachhaltigen Sanierung von Abwasserbauwerken auf.
A Round Robin (RR) exercise on selected coated materials has been carried out with the aim of finding the optimal conditions for the analysis of nitride layers with GD-OES. Such pre-normative work is necessary for the evaluation of parallel development of the production of nitride layers as certified reference materials (CRMs). Two types of samples, TiN layer and VN layer, respectively, with chemical compositions close to stoichiometry and a thickness of ~3 µm, deposited on a steel substrate, have been provided to the RR participants. Additionally, another type of sample, a (100 nm CrNi/100 nm Cu) multilayer (ML) stack deposited on silicon wafer has also been included in the RR. This sample can be used as a CRM for checking GD spectrometer conditions and it has been proved helpful in further development of GDS instrumentation and methodology. The RR exercise has been performed in the frame of the EC Thematic Network on Glow Discharge Spectroscopy for Spectrochemical Analysis (GDS-Net).
Today, quantitative data play a pivotal role in the understanding of biological processes. This is particularly true for the proteome: protein quantification always follows protein identification. To obtain useful and reliable quantitative data, rather sophisticated strategies using electrospray and MALDI mass spectrometry have been developed, which allow relative and sometimes even absolute quantification. All of those strategies have merits and limitations. In order to overcome some of these limits, methods based on the reliable and sensitive detection and quantification of heavy metals present in proteins using inductively coupled plasma (ICP)-MS have been reported. With specific labels carrying heavy metals, the applicability of ICP-MS has been extended to almost every protein. One of such covalently bound metal tags, allowing the quantification of low abundant proteins, uses 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane N,N',N'',N''-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) chelate complexes carrying lanthanides as the metal core. In this review the scope and limitations of peptide and protein quantification will be addressed. The metal tags do not only provide low detection limits, but also due to the large number of different lanthanides and lanthanide isotopes, multiplexing capabilities and previously unknown accuracy based on inherently possible isotope dilution methods came into reach. The developed workflows, including electrophoretic and chromatographic separation and preconcentration techniques, will be addressed to allow a comparison with already established procedures.
Besides protein identification via mass spectrometric methods, protein and peptide quantification has become more and more important in order to tackle biological questions. Methods like differential gel electrophoresis or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays have been used to assess protein concentrations, while stable isotope labeling methods are also well established in quantitative proteomics. Recently, we developed metalcoded affinity tagging (MeCAT) as an alternative for accurate and sensitive quantification of peptides and
proteins. In addition to absolute quantification via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, MeCAT also enables sequence analysis via electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. In the current study, we developed a new labeling approach utilizing an iodoacetamide MeCAT reagent (MeCAT-IA). The MeCAT-IA approach shows distinct advantages over the previously used MeCAT with maleinimide reactivity such as higher labelling efficiency and the lack of diastereomer formation during labeling. Here, we present a careful characterization of this new method focusing on the labeling process, which yields complete tagging with an excess of reagent of 1.6 to 1, less complex chromatographic behavior, and fragmentation characteristics of the tagged peptides using the iodoacetamide MeCAT reagent.
