High-resolution Fourier-transform infrared chemical imaging with multiple synchrotron beams

TLDR
This advance allows truly diffraction-limited high-resolution imaging over the entire mid-infrared spectrum with high chemical sensitivity and fast acquisition speed while maintaining high-quality SNR.
Abstract
Conventional Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopic systems are limited by an inevitable trade-off between spatial resolution, acquisition time, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and sample coverage. We present an FTIR imaging approach that substantially extends current capabilities by combining multiple synchrotron beams with wide-field detection. This advance allows truly diffraction-limited high-resolution imaging over the entire mid-infrared spectrum with high chemical sensitivity and fast acquisition speed while maintaining high-quality SNR.

Quantitative infrared spectroscopy of environmentally sensitive and rough materials.

TL;DR: A miniaturized environmental chamber is designed and 3D-printed that can be directly inserted into the sample holder of a conventional integrating sphere to perform total transmission and reflection measurements in controlled environments and a calibration method was developed to exclude light scattering from rough surfaces of the sample and the distortion created by infrared windows.

Differential Expression of Zinc Transporters in Prostate Epithelia of Racial Groups

TL;DR: The zinc transporters that may be disparately expressed in the prostate tissues of African American males as compared to European American males are studied to lead to identification of the potential molecular targets for preventive or therapeutic measures or nutritional, environmental or life style factors for their potential relationship to the incidence or progression of prostate cancer in various racial groups.
