Article Title: A micromachined Joule-Thomson cryocooler for ice lithography
Article Snippet: A micromachined Joule-Thomson cryocooler has been designed as a cryostage for ice lithography, which allows high-pressure nitrogen throttling to liquefy and fast cool samples with low vibration.. The sample can be cooled down to 99.5 K in 30 min and then heated up to room temperature in 10 min.. Compared with previous cooling systems based on liquid nitrogen, the Joule-Thomson cryostage has resulted in a significant 90% reduction in cooling time and a decrease in operating temperature by 30 K. Besides, the nitrogen mass-flow rate beneath the sample remains <20 mg/s to minimize vibration.

Article Title: Spatial Organization of Gas Vesicles is Governed by Phase-separable GvpU
Article Snippet: OD 500 was measured by a spectrophotometer (STS-VIS, Ocean Optics, Dunedin FL, USA), while the cuvette was pressurized by a single-valve pressure controller (PC series, Alicat Scientific, Tuscon, AZ, USA) from 0 to 1.4 MPa at 0.2 MPa per step.

Article Title: The Nanosecond Impulsive Breakdown Characteristics of Air, N2 and CO2 in a Sub-mm Gap
Article Snippet: This gas handling system included an Edwards BS.2212 rotary vacuum pump, used to evacuate the test cell and a custom build gas distribution board equipped with an Alicat PC-1500PSIG-D digital pressure controller (Alicat Scientific Inc, Tucson, AZ, USA), used to set and control the pressure in the test cell.

Article Title: Position-Specific Isotope Analysis of Propane by Mid-IR Laser Absorption Spectroscopy.
Article Snippet: Intramolecular or position-specific carbon isotope a n a l y s i s o f p r o p a n e ( 1 3 CH 3 − 1 2 CH 2 − 1 2 CH 3 a n d CH3−CH2−CH3) provides unique insights into its formation mechanism and temperature history.. The unambiguous detection of such carbon isotopic distributions with currently established methods is challenging due to the complexity of the technique and the tedious sample preparation.. We present a direct and nondestructive analytical technique to quantify the two singly substituted, terminal (Ct) and central (Cc), propane isotopomers, based on quantum cascade laser absorption spectroscopy.

Control:

Article Title: Temporal gene regulation enables controlled expression of gas vesicles and preserves bacterial viability.
Article Snippet: .. The system comprised (Fig. 7a): (1) a computer running MATLAB scripts to control pressure application; (2) a compressed nitrogen gas cylinder equipped with control valves and a pressure regulator; (3) a single-valve pressure controller (PC series; Alicat Scientific, Tucson, AZ) interfaced with the computer; (4) a quartz cuvette (176.700-QS; Hellma GmbH & Co. KG, Müllheim, Germany); and (5) a UV–Vis spectrophotometer (STS-VIS; Ocean Optics, Orlando, FL) with an integrated light source and cuvette holder. ..

Article Snippet: A flow controller (FC) (LK2, Alicat Scientific, USA) and a pressure controller (PC) (YK9, Alicat Scientific, USA) were employed to maintain a constant flow rate and pressure, respectively.

Techniques:

Mitochondrial respiration is impaired in fibroblasts derived from patients with DLD deficiency. Mitochondrial oxygen consumption was assessed in controls (Ctrl1 and Ctrl2) and patient (Pt1–Pt6) fibroblasts using high-resolution respirometry (Oroboros O2k). ( A ) Routine respiration; ( B ) maximal respiration calculated as the difference between FCCP-stimulated and α-chaconine–permeabilized rates; ( C ) complex I-linked respiration (NADH-linked respiration, N-pathway), calculated as the difference between ADP and α-chaconine; ( D ) complex II-linked respiration (NS-pathway) calculated as the difference between respiration after rotenone and α-chaconine addition; ( E ) effect of complex I inhibition, calculated as the difference between FCCP-stimulated and rotenone-inhibited respiration; and ( F ) complex I/complex II respiration ratio (complex I-linked activity divided by complex II-linked activity). Each open circle represents an independent experimental run (N = 4–8 repeats per sample). All data were normalized to cell number. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann–Whitney U test. * p < 0.05 vs. Ctrl1; numerical p values (0.05 < p < 0.1) are indicated on the plots. Abbreviations: Ctrl, control; Pt, patient.
