The College of Engineering and Applied Science believes in the power of collaborative, interdisciplinary research and actively seeks to support the shared instrumentation and facilities needed to ...

UC Santa Barbara researchers and their collaborators are getting a big boost to their research capacities, in the form of shared instrumentation that enhances sampling, imaging, measuring and the ...

Simultaneous application of Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) or Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) to one and the same sample in one instrument. TGA can be ...

Chemistry and physics differ not only in the scales of the systems they study but also in the scales of the instruments they use for research. Physicists and astronomers work on some large projects ...

The focus of research in medical devices and instrumentation is to conceptualize, design, fabricate, and validate novel therapeutic and diagnostic tools. This includes a vast range of medical devices ...

In a new article, researchers provide an overview of sample preparation techniques and information on routine sample types that may be encountered in forensic toxicology cases. As analytical ...

This workshop is in-person only but will be recorded for future viewing. The purpose of the National Science Foundation's Major Research Instrumentation program is to increase access to multi-user ...

In preliminary work, it is found that the sensitivity achieved using a miniature mass spectrometer with a discontinuous atmospheric pressure interface (DAPI) is comparable with those achieved using ...

As analytical instrumentation (gas- and liquid-chromatographs coupled with mass spectrometers) increase in sensitivity and speed, forensic scientists may find themselves still hindered by the process ...
