Home > Press > The Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw use Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis to characterize inorganic nanopowders & colloids
|Agnieszka Opalinska uses the NS500 system to characterize nanopowders & colloids at the Polish Academy of Sciences.
NanoSight reports on how Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis, NTA, is being implemented for the characterization of various inorganic nanopowders and colloids synthesized in the Institute of High Pressure Physics at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw.
The Institute of High Pressure Physics (IHPP) was founded in 1972 by the Polish Academy of Sciences. The original focus was on high-pressure studies of semiconductors. Now, research covers ceramics, HTc superconductors, biological materials (high-pressure studies of protein folding, and high pressure food processing) and the plasticity of metals (hydroextrusion). The common axis of these studies is the use of high pressure, both as a research tool (a perturbation like temperature or magnetic field) and as a technological method (high-pressure sintering, high-pressure growth of crystals).
Agnieszka Opalinska is a research chemist working on the synthesis and practical applications of nanopowders for use in medicine, optics, optoelectronics, pharmacy and cosmetics. The Institute has developed a microwave, solvothermal technology which has enabled the group to very rapidly obtain homogenous and phase-pure nanoparticles including hydroxyapatite, zinc oxide and zirconium oxide. The size and shape of these nanopowders are easy to manipulate and may be functionalized with organic molecules. With a specialty in the preparation of colloidal solutions too, the group needs accurate and easy-to-use methods of particle characterization.
Proper characterization of nanostructure of powders is the key stage for the process. The Institute makes several measurements including nanopowder morphology, density, specific surface area, phase composition and crystalite size, all of which are made on dry powder samples. For the past two years, the Institute has used both NTA and DLS (Dynamic Light Scattering) to produce complementary sizing results. However, when making the colloidal studies, NTA has a distinct advantage. Ms. Opalinska says "using NTA also gives us the concentration of particles. We like the use of video to be able to visualize the agglomeration process and to help us track the kinetics of the process."

About NanoSight
NanoSight's "Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis" (NTA) detects and visualizes populations of nanoparticles in liquids down to 10 nm, dependent on material, and measures the size of each particle from direct observations of diffusion. Additionally, NanoSight measures concentration and a fluorescence mode differentiates suitably-labelled particles within complex background suspensions. Zeta potential measurements are similarly particle-specific.
This real-time data gives insight into the kinetics of protein aggregation and other time-dependent phenomena in a qualitative and quantitative manner. NTA has a growing role in biodiagnostics, being proven in detection and speciation of extracellular vesicles.
NanoSight has installed more than 600 systems worldwide and its technology is validated by 900+ third party papers citing NanoSight results. For more information, visit www.nanosight.com.

Duo put Auckland on top
Relevant offers
Tristar club gymnasts David Bishop and Jordan Rae are on a roll after putting in first-class performances at the 2012 Gymsports national championships.
Forty-five gymnasts from the Hillsborough club competed and won both the men's and women's all-round titles and a staggering 117 medals.
Seventeen-year-old Rae leapt, tumbled and danced her way to victory, winning the women's all-round title and placing first in the vault, bar, beam and floor.
And 22-year-old Bishop was hot on her heels, taking the men's all-round title and placing first in the vault, pommel and high bar.
Seeing his name alongside other talented gymnasts was the highlight of the competition for Bishop.
"When I heard it was official I was stoked. It's pretty cool to be able to say that I'm national champ."
The Auckland University engineering student has the Commonwealth Games in his sights next.
"I'm not going to say that getting there is my goal because I know that's where I'm going. My goal is to do well when I get there. I know what I want."
For Rae, the adrenaline rush she gets while competing is what gymnastics is all about.
"I just love to perform in front of the judges."
The Baradene College student is now hoping to win a scholarship to an American university.
Tristar club chief executive Jenny Jujnovich says winning both the men's and women's shields is a huge victory for Auckland.
"To beat Canterbury is a really big deal. Normally we would win one shield but we've never won both before."
There was no question in her mind that Rae and Bishop would hold their own against the competition, she says.
"They are both really talented gymnasts and their coaches put in the hard yards to see them achieve."
Gymsports New Zealand chief executive Sarah Ashmole says Auckland gymnasts have shown a lot of promise in the past.
"It's really refreshing to see Auckland coming through with these results. They have a lot of really good gymnasts coming through and it's great for Auckland to see them back on top."

Uberizing Organizational Learning – Thinking Beyond Courses
ID Reflections
Designing courses is passé! In a world where the shelf-life of knowledge and skills are rapidly shrinking, where best practices of yore yield increasingly little or no return on investment, where exceptions are the norm, and constant change and flux the new normal, designing set courses using SME-defined content is like trying to build a dam to rein in the surging waves of a tumultuous ocean.
LMS History and Current Trends
The elearning industry is constantly evolving, and at a quick pace too. Everything from the software we use to create elearning to the systems in place to deliver online training programs is shaped by emerging technologies. One of the cornerstones in elearning is the learning management system. It is the workhorse behind the scenes that ensures courses are delivered and tracked.

did not embody the dirt-on-the-uniform, all-out, get-concussed-or-go-home sort of player [manager Kirk] Gibson wants
Seems like an unfortunate phrase in the wake of Ryan Freel's suicide and the controversies the NFL is going through.
Unfortunate?3. OMJ, less arguing, more whimsy Posted: January 25, 2013 at 10:31 AM (#4354803)
I don't think so. My guess is it was very intentional and a not so subtle mock.
This has always been Towers style, even before Gibson. See Byrnes, Eric. Gibson is just making it worse.4. Danny Posted: January 25, 2013 at 10:50 AM (#4354822)
This has always been Towers style, even before Gibson. See Byrnes, Eric.
See Byrnes, Josh.
Upton was the 2nd most valuable right fielder in baseball the last 4 years by fWAR (Zobrist ain't a RF), 5th the last 3 years, 3rd last two years.6. Rickey! [quote], not [code] Posted: January 25, 2013 at 11:54 AM (#4354909)
Can you imagine how good he'd be if he cared? I mean cared enough to lift weights at the same time as Gibby, instead of spending hours in the batting cage working on his swing?
Can you imagine if he was a grinder how many games he would have played the last 4 years? I guess a grinder would have played more than 145 games a year even with the same injuries.
It occurs to me that the Braves just traded for a RH Jason Heyward to play LF. This makes me happy.7. Matt Welch Posted: January 25, 2013 at 12:12 PM (#4354930)
This is a very good article, I think, but it doesn't leave any space for the not-insubstantial history of newish managers trading away All-Star talent to help create their own organizational culture, then achieving success afterward. Like Whitey Herzog dumping Ted Simmons (and later Keith Hernandez), or Scioscia/Stoneman getting rid of Jim Edmonds, or Francona/Epstein trading Nomar.8. valuearbitrageur Posted: January 25, 2013 at 12:15 PM (#4354934)
Re: the great observation about smooth non-white players getting tagged as lazy or indifferent, one of Scioscia's neat early tricks was basically pulling the rug out from under that once-common description of Garret Anderson.
Last 3 years according to FanGraphs9. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: January 25, 2013 at 12:31 PM (#4354951)
Upton .281/.361/.469 WOBA .359 wRC+ 120 WAR fld: 11.1 bsr: 8.2 total: 11.9
Yea, it might be fun watching them play together every day. And the last 3 years include Upton's two injury season, coincidentally his 2 worst seasons in his last 4, so there is a reasonable chance Justin might be the better player going forward. Two years ago a healthy Justin did this...
Upton (age 23) .289/.369/.529 WOBA .385 wRC+ 139 WAR fld: 7.7 bsr: 4.5 total 6.4
matt10. CFBF Was Killed By The Mad Queen Posted: January 25, 2013 at 12:44 PM (#4354956)
but whitey picked up other players who could play. jury is still out if arizona did that
it does appear that the trade was more about getting rid of someone than gaining someone
worked for billy beane in the case of jeremy giambi
I will say this: Martin Prado is a darn good player. Not flashy, and he doesn't possess the upside of Upton, but a .300 hitter with doubles power and the ability to play capable defense at three positions is exceptionally valuable.11. akrasian Posted: January 25, 2013 at 01:00 PM (#4354967)

Players who get injured are not gritty players though. They can't play for Kirk Gibson. Oh wait . . .
If they extend Prado for 2-3 more years slightly below market (say, AAV $11m PA), I think they made a fair trade. I know the extension is technically a separate issue, but I do not think they made the deal in a vacuum. Still think the Bauer trade was bad.13. RoyalsRetro (AG#1F) Posted: January 25, 2013 at 01:04 PM (#4354969)
The comments Towers made yesterday were total nonsense. I think he was trying to get his point across without taking TOO many potshots at Upton. As a result, he ended up saying things like "It wasn't that he didn't try hard, he just did a bad job making others see how hard he was playing." If the results are the same, why do you care? Are you really conceding that appearances outweigh performance?
Yes, but what is his value by DIRT?
A non-white guy in baseball getting a rap that he's not trying hard enough and not a grinder (whatever the hell that means)? Wow, that never happens.15. shoewizard Posted: January 25, 2013 at 04:56 PM (#4355128)
Maybe if he danced like Ray Lewis before every game he'd still be in Arizona.
Well, apparently Towers and Gibson did not see the correlation between having a 6 WAR player and winning in 2011 and having a 2 WAR playing and not winning in 2012.16. Voros McCracken of Pinkus Posted: January 25, 2013 at 05:18 PM (#4355144)
It's just so ironic that the primary reason Upton had a bad year is because he played through a thumb injury when he should have gone on the DL.
One thing worth mentioning from a financial perspective is that Upton was the current face of this franchise: IE most common jersey at games and so on. So who is that going to be now? Miguel Montero maybe?17. Tim D Posted: January 25, 2013 at 06:00 PM (#4355164)
It just doesn't seem to me that any of this was gone about the right way by the DBacks. Even if you privately feel that Upton's "promise" is far in excess of what he's ever going to deliver, it would seem to me to be better to keep that to yourself than air that stuff publicly as happened last year. Can't help a player's trade value if the other teams know you're backed into a corner and have to move him.
Gibson still has the football player mentality. He would love Ray Lewis. This will be his downfall as a manager, favoring hustle guys over people who can actually play. There are any number of guys he would have happily run out of town if he had them, white, black, hispanic or otherwise. He probably wouldn't have been too happy with Babe Ruth's schtick. If Bauer doesn't have Clemens or Schilling or Morris intensity then he's a slacker. Gibson will be gone in two years and will be lucky to get another job. I was at Michigan State when Gibson was there, was in Detroit most of his career, moved to So Cal when he was there. I have followed him closely. Towers will last a couple more years and this will be his last gig. What they have done to this franchise is a joke. Prado is a nice player and Delgado has some upside but they got zero star potential in a trade for a 25 year old 5 tool RF who finished 4th in the MVP race a year ago. That is awful. And they did it to themselves, telegraphing to the whole industry that they were unhappy with their best players. They made their bed..............18. Pat Rapper's Delight Posted: January 25, 2013 at 06:12 PM (#4355176)
It occurs to me that the Braves just traded for a RH Jason Heyward to play LF. This makes me happy.19. spike Posted: January 25, 2013 at 08:34 PM (#4355226)
But should that make him 1 of my 3 fantasy keepers? Is he poised for a big year in a place that wants him, reunited with his brother, and (perhaps most importantly) over the thumb injury?
My other two keepers will be Trout and Harper.
He's going to be in the middle of a pretty good hitting side, if McCann and Uggla do anything.20. Crosseyed and Painless Posted: January 25, 2013 at 09:30 PM (#4355246)
According to Fredi, the proposed lineup is
SS Andrelton Simmons
RF Jason Heyward
LF Justin Upton
C Brian McCann
CF B.J. Upton
1B Freddie Freeman or 2B Dan Uggla
2B Dan Uggla or 1B Freddie Freeman
3B Chris Johnson or Juan Francisco
My other two keepers will be Trout and Harper.

James Franco Offers to Work for 'The Colbert Report'
Oscars co-host James Franco has asked funnyman Stephen Colbert for a job on his hit U.S. late night comedy show. The "127 Hours" star, who most recently announced plans to become a professor at New York University in 2012, has set his sights on a new gig - working for "The Colbert Report".
Franco, who is a big fan of the program, offered up his talents and nominated himself for an art consultant position during an appearance on the show on Tuesday, April 5. He says, "You rule. I want to work with you." The funnyman liked the idea and pronounced him hired.
Representatives for Comedy Central, which produces "The Colbert Report", have yet to comment on whether or not Franco will actually sign on and become an employee. The busy actor is currently a regular member of daytime soap "General Hospital" and he's also making a documentary about acting.

A hearing in Lewisville, TX, to decide whether or not there should be a half-cent sales tax increase to fund a sports arena drew a "standing-room only" crowd Tuesday night. The vote, which will take place on January 21, calls for a raise in sales tax from 7.25% to 7.75% to fund a $40M bond issue for a sports arena. The arena will be built only if the city of Dallas fails to negotiate a deal to keep the Mavericks (Kim North, DALLAS MORNING NEWS, 1/11). On Wednesday, "several members" of the Dallas City Council said "they were angry with the Stars for helping fund" the Lewisville campaign. A memo was sent to City Attorney Sam Lindsay asking what legal action could be taken against the Stars if they "opt not to play at Reunion Arena."

Good 3.6 /5 from 111 reviews
Was good definitely will come back to stay.
I bought this hotel with funtastic four offer.. I considered it very cheap with what i get from the hotel.. Good service also from the hotel staff..
Great location, old hotel. Too dated. Room needs a makeover, toilet not clean.
Firstly, water heater not working on the first night. We had to bath cold water that day. Secondly,we book our hotel stay with breakfast. However, the staff said that it was not recorded in their system. For the first day of breakfast, we had verify that we had already included and paid online for breakfast. The 2nd day after breakfast, the adminstrative ask us to pay for our meals. This shows the lack of system in the hotel. The staff have no up to date information. Quite displeased with their service. But the cleaniness of the room is excellent. I dont really like the bath tub where we have to climb in to bath.
Very close to the beach and an overall good location.

Topic: Transplants, Trees
Title: Madrone too close to house in Oregon
Answered by: Nan Hampton
QUESTION:I have a small Madrone tree (8ft tall) located approximatly 15 feet from my house, with a basement. Should I remove it? ie will it damage the foundation and is the tree strong enough that it will not drop on the house as it gets larger?
This is what the US Forest Service says about Arbutus menziesii (Pacific madrone):
"Once established, Pacific madrone is windfirm, drought enduring and somewhat tolerant of wet, freezing conditions." They also say that the root system is widespread and massive.
So, in answer to your question about whether the madrone is likely to fall on your house, I would so "no, not very likely." In answer to whether the roots are going to damage the foundation, I would say "possibly", but fifteen feet is a pretty good distance from your house for the roots to spread without damaging your foundation.
Given that there is concern about The Decline of the Pacific Madrone (Arbutus menziesii) and the fact that it is a beautiful tree, it would be a real shame to cut it down. It might be possible to transplant it, but UBC Botanical Garden forum says that Pacific madrone is difficult to transplant since they are prone to disease and the process of transplanting injures roots so that pathogens are more likely to have an opportunity to invade. Oregon State University Extension Service also points out the difficulty in transplanting the Pacific madrone. You can see other posts concerning The Genus Arbutus on the UBC Botanical Garden forums.
In case you decide to try transplanting, here are a couple of informative articles on transplanting trees from the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of Tennessee and from North Dakota State University.
Also, you might contact the Linn County Office of Oregon State University for local assistance in your decisions about your madrone.

more Snap Judgments by Frank Burlison Posted: Sun Feb. 26, 2012 Here are a few thoughts from Saturday's slate of college hoops:No. 2 Syracuse 71, Connecticut 69: [RECAP | BOX] For the better part of the second half Saturday night in Storrs, the host Huskies demonstrated why so many people thought in November that they could repeat as national champions.Despite trailing by 17 points early in the second half, the Huskies tied the score at 63 with about four minutes to go and at 69 with 51 seconds remaining -- each time on a layup by freshman Andre Drummond.Drummond -- the probable No. 2 pick (behind Anthony Davis of Kentucky) in the next NBA Draft -- and fellow freshman Ryan Boatright were downright dazzling in the comeback.Drummond demonstrated a combination of bulk, power and explosiveness that is second-to-none on the college level while scoring 17 points, grabbing 14 rebounds and blocking three shots.Boatright, whose quickness borders on the startling, hit four 3-pointers while scoring 15 points to go with six assists.And Jeremy Lamb -- such a big part of the team's national title run last spring as a freshman -- showed the skills that could make him the first perimeter player tabbed in the 2012 NBA Draft.Ultimately, though, the team that has played better than anyone -- save for Kentucky -- most of this season executed just well enough and played just enough defense to leave the building with a Big East regular-season title and 29-1 record in tow.Syracuse is going to be a No. 1 seed in the Field of 68 regardless of what happens in the Big East Tournament in Madison Square Garden.But what of the Huskies, who fell to 17-11 overall and 7-9 in the Big East?It's still unclear as to when Coach Jim Calhoun will return from the injured (ailing back) list.But wins at Providence on Tuesday and at home to Pittsburgh next Saturday will probably put the Huskies in the NCAA tourney field, regardless of what happens in Madison Square Garden.This is the same club, however, that has lost eight of its past 11 games.So nothing should be taken for granted -- as the Huskies, their coaches and followers are already too aware.No. 1 Kentucky 83, Vanderbilt 74: [RECAP | BOX] The numbers continue to get even more dazzling for the Wildcats.The win over the Commodores -- a club they'll probably hook up with a third time in the SEC Tournament in Atlanta in two weeks -- was their 51st consecutive in Rupp Arena and 20th overall this season and the SEC regular-season crown was the program's 45th.And the lock for national Freshman of the Year and co-leader for Player of the Year honors (with a fellow from Kansas) kept cranking out spiffy digits.Anthony Davis hit 10 of 11 from the field and eight of nine from the free-throw line for a game-high 28 points to go with 11 rebounds, six blocked shots and two steals.Can we all agree that his on-court performance, 29 games into his only season as a college player, has exceeded the hyperbole that was his travel companion on the trek from Chicago to Lexington?Florida, despite its 76-62 loss at Georgia Saturday, remains one game ahead of Vanderbilt in the SEC standings.But regardless of where the Commodores finish or how they perform in the SEC tourney, look for them to finally make a deep run -- into the second week -- in the NCAA Tournament in March.The ACC: The three conference games with real significance (sorry Wake Forest/Boston College and Maryland/Georgia Tech) were all gut-crunchers.And the players and coaches from Virginia Tech, Virginia and North Carolina State took the figurative punches to the gut.• The Hokies led by three points late in regulation ... only to fall to Duke, 70-65, in overtime.• The Cavaliers came into the afternoon 0-3 against the conference's "Big Three" (North Carolina, Duke and Florida State) -- and came into the new week 0-4 as a couple of 3-point attempts in the closing seconds didn't fall and the visiting Tar Heels prevailed, 54-51.• The Wolfpack badly needed a victory at Clemson to serve as a sort of energy drink-boost for coach Mark Gottfried's team's faltering at-large resume ... and lost in overtime, 72-69.The results left the Blue Devils and Tar Heels at 12-2, with only games at Wake Forest on Tuesday (for Duke) and at Maryland on Wednesday (for North Carolina) separating Mike Krzyzewski's and Roy Williams' teams from their ACC regular-season title showdown next Saturday in Cameron Indoor Stadium.They also left Virginia without a victory that would have, no doubt, impressed the NCAA's Championship Committee and enhanced its tournament seed.And they left Seth Greenberg's team 4-10 in the ACC, with eight of those by five or fewer points.Energy drinks -- literal or figurative -- can't get a team out of the funk that will leave you with.The Pac-12: It's been well-documented that the conference's teams didn't do a whole to impress during November and December.So how can its teams impress those picking the NCAA Tournament's 37 at-large entries?The answer? By accumulating as many conference victories as possible.Saturday, the Washington Huskies and Arizona Wildcats continued to do that while overcoming second-half deficits.The Huskies trailed by 13 points in Pullman before edging Washington State, 59-55, to improve to 13-3 in conference and 20-8 overall.And the Wildcats, losing by six points after intermission in Tucson, edged UCLA, 65-63, to go to 10-5 and 19-9.Cal (13-3 in conference and 23-6 overall) is probably already in the at-large safe zone and probably silences any remaining doubters with a win at Colorado (10-5 and 18-9) Sunday.Four slots in the field of 68 -- including the auto bid that goes to the Pac-12 Tourney winner on March 10 in Los Angeles -- is still a real possibility for the conference despite the sluggish days and nights of November and December.Iowa State 65, Kansas State 61: [RECAP | BOX] The win in Manhattan improved the Cyclones to 11-5 in the Big 12 and 21-8 overall.What kind of tourney seed are they looking at?Games at Missouri (Wednesday) and in Ames against Baylor next Saturday will no doubt play a large role in shaping Iowa State's seed.By the way, Fred Hoiberg is the only guy who should be included in a discussion with Bill Self as the conference's Coach of the Year.
