Journal ArticleDOI
Sample treatment and preparation for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy
Sarah C. Jantzi,Vincent Motto-Ros,Florian Trichard,Yuri Markushin,Noureddine Melikechi,Alessandro De Giacomo +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight the work of many LIBS researchers who have developed, adapted, and improved upon sample preparation techniques for various specimen types in order to improve the quality of the analytical data that LIBS can produce in a large number of research domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization and forensic analysis of soil samples using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS)
Sarah C. Jantzi,José R. Almirall +1 more
TL;DR: A method for the quantitative elemental analysis of surface soil samples using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was developed and applied to the analysis of bulk soil samples for discrimination between specimens, and a proof of principle study successfully discriminated samples from two different sites in Dade County, FL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with spinal muscular atrophy by use of a reusable fibre‐optic biosensor
James Watterson,Sandeep Raha,Christopher C. Kotoris,Christopher C. Wust,Farhad Gharabaghi,Sarah C. Jantzi,Nicole K. Haynes,Nathalie H. Gendron,Ulrich J. Krull,Alex MacKenzie,Paul A. E. Piunno +10 more
TL;DR: By using the time-derivative of fluorescence intensity as the analytical parameter, linearity of response may be maintained while allowing for significant reductions in analysis time (10-100-fold), permitting for the completion of measurements in under 1 min.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elemental analysis of soils using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) with multivariate discrimination: tape mounting as an alternative to pellets for small forensic transfer specimens.
Sarah C. Jantzi,José R. Almirall +1 more
TL;DR: An alternative sample introduction method was developed to meet these needs while still providing quantitative results suitable for multivariate comparisons, and results from both the tape method and pellet method were nearly identical.
Journal ArticleDOI
Profiling of heroin and assignment of provenance by 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the first reporting on the use of 87 Sr/86 Sr analysis of heroin for the profiling of samples from specific geographic regions, including Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, South America, and Mexico.
