In response to insect pest herbivory, plants can generate volatile components that may serve multiple roles as communication signals and defence agents in a multitrophic context. In the present study, the volatile profiles of tobacco plants Nicotiana tabacum L., with and without infestation by sap-sucking aphids Myzus persicae Sulzer, were measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results revealed that a total of 10 compounds were identified from healthy tobacco plants, and a total of 14 and 16 compounds were isolated from aphid-infested tobacco plants at 24 and 48 hours after infestation, respectively.

Perrault 1,* 1 Laboratory of Forensic and Bioanalytical Chemistry, Forensic Sciences Unit, Division of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Chaminade University of Honolulu, 3140 Waialae Ave., Honolulu, HI 96816, USA; [email protected] 2 Laboratory of Forensic Taphonomy, Forensic Sciences Unit, Division of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Chaminade University of Honolulu, 3140 Waialae Avenue, Honolulu, HI 96816, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 10 August 2018; Accepted: 27 August 2018; Published: 10 September 2018 Abstract: Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are monitored in numerous fields using several commercially-available sampling options. Sorbent-based sampling techniques, such as solid-phase microextraction (SPME), provide pre-concentration and focusing of VOCs prior to gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis. This study investigated the dynamics of SPME Arrow, which exhibits an increased sorbent phase volume and improved durability compared to traditional SPME fibers. A volatile reference mixture (VRM) and saturated alkanes mix (SAM) were used to investigate optimal parameters for microbiological VOC profiling in combination with GC–MS analysis. Fiber type, extraction time, desorption time, carryover, and reproducibility were characterized, in addition to a comparison with traditional SPME fibers. The developed method was then applied to longitudinal monitoring of Bacillus subtilis cultures, which represents a ubiquitous microbe in medical, forensic, and agricultural applications. The carbon wide range/polydimethylsiloxane (CWR/PDMS) fiber was found to be optimal for the range of expected VOCs in microbiological profiling, and a statistically significant increase in the majority of VOCs monitored was observed.

  • Certificate of Analysis
    National Institute of Standards & Technology Certificate of Analysis Standard Reference Material 2285 Ignitable Liquids Test Mixture This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended primarily for use in the calibration of chromatographic instrumentation used for the classification of an ignitable liquid residue. SRM 2285 is a solution of 15 compounds, including even carbon number aliphatic hydrocarbons from hexane to tetracosane, toluene, p-xylene, 2-ethyltoluene, 3-ethyltoluene, and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene in methylene chloride. A unit of SRM 2285 consists of five 2 mL ampoules, each containing approximately 1.2 mL of solution. Certified Mass Fraction Values: The certified values for the 15 constituents are given in Table 1. These values are based on results obtained from the gravimetric preparation of this solution and from the analytical results determined by using gas chromatography. A NIST certified value is a value for which NIST has the highest confidence in its accuracy in that all known or suspected sources of uncertainty have been investigated or taken into account [1]. Information Concentration Values: Information values for concentrations, expressed as percent volume fractions, are provided in Table 2 for the components. An information value is considered to be a value that will be of interest and use to the SRM user, but insufficient information is available to assess adequately the uncertainty associated with the value or only a limited number of analyses were performed [1]. Expiration of Certification: The certification of SRM 2285 is valid, within the measurement uncertainty specified, until 30 March 2023, provided the SRM is handled and stored in accordance with the instructions given in this certificate (see “Instructions for Handling, Storage, and Use”).

  • Benchmarking and Application of Density Functional Methods In
    BENCHMARKING AND APPLICATION OF DENSITY FUNCTIONAL METHODS IN COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY by BRIAN N. PAPAS (Under Direction the of Henry F. Schaefer III) ABSTRACT Density Functional methods were applied to systems of chemical interest. First, the effects of integration grid quadrature choice upon energy precision were documented. This was done through application of DFT theory as implemented in five standard computational chemistry programs to a subset of the G2/97 test set of molecules. Subsequently, the neutral hydrogen-loss radicals of naphthalene, anthracene, tetracene, and pentacene and their anions where characterized using five standard DFT treatments. The global and local electron affinities were computed for the twelve radicals. The results for the 1- naphthalenyl and 2-naphthalenyl radicals were compared to experiment, and it was found that B3LYP appears to be the most reliable functional for this type of system. For the larger systems the predicted site specific adiabatic electron affinities of the radicals are 1.51 eV (1-anthracenyl), 1.46 eV (2-anthracenyl), 1.68 eV (9-anthracenyl); 1.61 eV (1-tetracenyl), 1.56 eV (2-tetracenyl), 1.82 eV (12-tetracenyl); 1.93 eV (14-pentacenyl), 2.01 eV (13-pentacenyl), 1.68 eV (1-pentacenyl), and 1.63 eV (2-pentacenyl). The global minimum for each radical does not have the same hydrogen removed as the global minimum for the analogous anion. With this in mind, the global (or most preferred site) adiabatic electron affinities are 1.37 eV (naphthalenyl), 1.64 eV (anthracenyl), 1.81 eV (tetracenyl), and 1.97 eV (pentacenyl). In later work, ten (scandium through zinc) homonuclear transition metal trimers were studied using one DFT 2 functional.
