Exposing hidden periodic orbits in scanning force microscopy by Lukas Böttcher, Hannes Wallner, Niklas Kruse, Wolfram Just, Ingo Barke, Jens Starke, Sylvia Speller

“…This is achieved by a minimally invasive control scheme based on fast adaptive phase extraction and Fourier discretisation of the tip dynamics. Stabilization of unstable branches of oscillating AFM cantilevers opens avenues for novel experimental modes, potentially enabling ultrasensitive surface detection at considerably large amplitudes with minimal tip-surface interaction, new insights in tip-surface interaction mechanisms, as well as new AFM modes enabling arbitrary setpoint choice while inherently avoiding discontinuities.…”

Arsenic efflux and bioremediation potential of Klebsiella oxytoca via the arsB gene. by Sana Waqar, Aamira Tariq, Ubaid Ullah, Hira Haleem, Hadiqa Aimen, Sadia Sattar, Nazish Bostan

“…Arsenic remediation by AT-02 biomass was 50% after 0.5 hours of incubation and 66% in 2 hours. the increase in remediation efficiency with the increase in incubation time indicates its biosorption potential. the arsenic sensitive strain NK11 showed only 4-5% arsenic remediation. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis confirmed interaction of arsenate and arsenite with functional groups (aromatic amino acid residues) on the cell surface leading to characteristic peak shifts. …”

Sulfonation of Divinylbenzene Adsorbents Packed in a Micro Sampler to Extract Airborne Organic Compounds by Po-Jung Huang, Wen-Hsi Cheng, Chia-Yu Chang

“…Abstract In this work, sulfonated divinylbenzene (SDVB) adsorbents, with the 60–80 mesh diameter, were packed inside a 22-gauge stainless steel needle to fabricate a sulfonated needle trap sampler (SNTS), which is a micro sampler. An analysis of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) scanning data, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) data, and scanning electron microscopice (SEM) observations, confirmed the physiochemical characteristics of sulfonated DVB adsorbent resins. …”
