It is well known that the duty cycle of common drift-tube ion mobility experiments is often below 1%. However, multiplexing approaches such as Fourier and Hadamard pulsing schemes have been shown to independently enhance the throughput of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) experiments to levels that approach 50%. While challenges remain to their broad scale implementation we describe a new Fourier...

BACKGROUND Determination of quartz by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) is not specific: the obtained results are influenced by matrix components, some of which cause spectral interference. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of dust components responsible for spectral interference with quartz on the results of its determinations, and to develop methods to minimize the ...

an aqueous extract of pimpinella anisum was used for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles by bio reduction of an aqueous solution of silver nitrate. silver nanoparticles were characterized by uv–vis spectrometry, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (sem) and energy-dispersive x-ray analysis (edax). the increase in abs...

bacillus sp. sbs25, a gram positive bacteria isolated from soil was found to be effectivein the biodegradation of natural rubber latex. the products of latex biodegradation were separated from the ether extract by thin layer chromatography. gas chromatography and mass spectrometry showed the biodegradation of the major compound into three simpler fractions with low molecular weights. this was f...

drug resistance enables cancer cells to break away from cytotoxic effect of anticancer drugs. identification of resistant phenotype is very important because it can lead to effective treatment plan. there is an interest in developing classifying models of resistance phenotype based on the multivariate data. we have investigated a vibrational spectroscopic approach in order to characterize a sen...

The terms Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) are used to denote efficient and fast algorithms to compute the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) respectively. The FFT/IFFT is widely used in many digital signal processing applications and the efficient implementation of the FFT/IFFT is a topic of continuous research.

Image computation is a fundamental tool for performance assessment of astronomical instrumentation, usually implemented by Fourier transform techniques. We review the numerical implementation, evaluating a direct implementation of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) algorithm, compared with fast Fourier transform (FFT) tools. Simulations show that the precision is quite comparable, but in the ...
