Acid Labile Surfactants Containing Ketal-Linkage in Micellar Electrokinetic Chromatography and Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry
DownloadFall 2012
The combination of micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) would yield a very powerful analytical technique. However, hyphenating both techniques is not easy. Sodium 4-[(2-methyl-2-undecyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl) methoxy]-1-propane...

Axon excitability testing shows increased IH activity in populations of slow versus fast motor axons of the rat
DownloadFall 2013
Despite extensive knowledge of variations in motoneuron (MN) soma and muscle properties across different healthy muscles or motor units, there is comparatively little knowledge about variations in motor axon electrophysiology across different axon groups. Axon excitability testing (AET) is an in...

While there has been much literature in the area of system monitoring and diagnosis, most of these techniques have a relatively small scope in terms of the faults and performance issues that they are built to detect. When implementing several monitors simultaneously on a single process, a single...
