About our name: The White Lotus (nelumbo nucifera), a sacred symbol of Indian cultural heritage, sprouts in muddy lakes and ponds, its stalks rising from the murky waters to unfurl magnificent ornamental blossoms that reach for the sun. To White Lotus Home, the flower is an allegory of the human condition’s triumph over chemicals and toxins in the environment as we work to enlighten and inspire others on the benefits of handcrafted organic and natural products, thereby partaking of the White Lotus flower’s endless destiny.

Since 1960, more than 25,000 men and women from the region have participated in the Center's cooperative programs. Principal funding for the Center comes from the United States Congress. Support also comes from more than 20 Asian and Pacific governments, as well as private agencies and corporations. The Center has an international board of governors.

  • Forensic Discrimination of Fibers by Evolved Gas Analysis and Library Search by F-Search
    ® Multi-functional Pyrolyzer Technical Note ( PYA3 - 012E ) Forensic Discrimination of Fibers by Evolved Gas Analysis and Library Search by F-Search [Background] In the area of forensic chemistry, the identification of an ’unknown’ fiber needs to be done quickly and accurately; the analytical method needs to be as simple as possible. Evolved gas analysis (EGA)-MS is a simple thermal analysis method that provides information about the gases evolving from a sample as it is heated. This method provides information such as the elution temperature of the volatiles and the pyrolysis temperature of the unknown polymeric fraction of the sample. The thermal distribution of the evolved gases along with the mass spectra data, enables the analyst to quickly identify an ‘unknown’ fiber. This technical notes describes how EGA-MS can be used to compare different types of fibers. [Experimental] The 21 fiber samples used in this study are shown in Fig. 1. Thermograms of these fibers were obtained by EGA. Then a library containing the average mass spectra of the main peaks in each thermogram was created using F- Search. The 21 fibers were differentiated based up on the thermal distribution of the evolved gases (i.e. the peak shape of the thermograms) and the F-Search library search results. [Results] One of the 21 fibers was randomly selected to serve as the ‘unknown’ sample. The ‘unknown’ samples was then searched using the newly created library. In Fig. 2, the three candidates with highest match qualities are shown. Candidates 1 and 2 have match qualities greater than 80, but their mass spectra are too similar to differentiate them.
