Rapid separation of Sr from carbonates for accurate 87Sr/86Sr isotope analysis by TIMS
The strontium isotopes (87Sr/86Sr) in carbonates can serve as a fundamental geochemical indicator holding an indispensable status in both modern and paleo-geochemical investigations. Though thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS) is widely used as the most accurate technique for 87Sr/86Sr isotope analysis, an i

Have a look at our latest publication: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a....
Using molecular dynamics, we've shown single amino acids can be identified by their passage through a graphene nanopore. We shed light on how the orientation of the amino acid affects the electrical signal.

Really enjoyed writing my first Chemistry World story on this great Green Chemistry paper! It's exciting to see the progress researchers are making in developing sustainable polymers for real-world applications -- they are definitely on the right track!
Seed oil from Brassica Carinata, a crop that can be grown on unused land as a winter cover crop. Researchers from the University of Florida used it to make polymers that biodegrade in a useful way.

I’m very interested in knowing what concentrations of PFAS we might find in air across UK and Europe. We know they’re in the air (see Zhou et al’s work on PFAS in air in North Carolina), but there would be value in improved spatio-temporal understanding 🧪 pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Has the artic ever been more important, had more necessity for change than it does today? Find out how regulations can help and hinder in this timely piece. @envsci.bsky.social @roysocchem.bsky.social #chemsky #environmentalchemistry #environment #science #arctic
The Arctic is especially vulnerable to chemical pollution. We reviewed global, regional, and national regulations to see if they could help.

We found fragmentation & gaps, but sometimes potential to put the Arctic front & center.
