Development and Application of Advanced Mass Spectrometry Techniques for Determination of Reactive Aerosol Constituents
DownloadFall 2024
Reactive aerosol constituents, including organic peroxides (H2O2, ROOR and ROOH), organosulfates (OS), and organonitrates (ON), are integral components of atmospheric chemistry, climate dynamics, and human health. However, their intricate chemical compositions and dynamic behaviours present...

Development of Chemical Isotope Labeling Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry on Quadrupole-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometers for Metabolome Analysis
DownloadFall 2023
Chemical isotope labeling liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (CIL LC-MS) is a powerful technique in metabolomics, offering extensive coverage of the metabolome. This method involves dividing metabolites into sub-groups based on their functional groups and subjecting them to specific labeling...

Multifunctional Carbazole-Based Materials as Electrochemical Water Splitting and Photoredox Catalysis
DownloadFall 2023
The combustion of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide and other harmful greenhouse gases into our living atmosphere, which traps heating and causes global warming. Renewable energy, however, can help solve the problem above by producing far fewer greenhouse gases. Renewable energy is a general...
