Researchers at the University of Waterloo have developed a device using solid phase microextraction (SPME) method in the analyses of chemical substances with a focus towards monitoring of in-process applications or monitoring of the environment for pollutants. This invention for solid phase microextraction is particularly useful and adaptable to field sampling. The device takes the form off a tubular member that is mounted in a needle. The tubular member is movable and can be enclosed within the needle to preserve the integrity of the collected sample.
Two articles published in F1000Research support controversial claims that could redefine what we know about Mendelian inheritance in single Arabidopsisthalianaplants.
