SRM 972a Vitamin D Metabolites in Frozen Human Serum - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as an accuracy control in the critical evaluation of methods for determining the amount-of-substance concentration of vitamin D metabolites in human serum. This SRM can also be used as a quality assurance tool for assigning values to in-house control materials for these constituents. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as an analytical standard of known potassium (K) and chloride (Cl-) content. This lot of potassium chloride (KCl) was prepared to ensure a material of high purity and homogeneity and has been assayed after drying at 500 °C. A unit of SRM 999c consists of a single glass bottle containing 30 g of the material. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

Standard Reference Material-1721: Southern Oceanic Air. Ambient Nominal Amount of Substance Fraction for Carbon Dioxide, Methane & Nitrous Oxide. This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is a primary gas mixture for which the amount-of-substance fraction, expressed as concentration, may be related to secondary working standards. This SRM is intended for the calibration of instruments used for ambient carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) determinations and for other applications. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

This folder contains image data sets from 14 separate serial sectioning sessions. The entire data folder consists of 1379 8 bit tif images and is 47.3 GB in size. Serial sectioning was performed using FEI Helios 660 NanoLab focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB SEM) and Auto Slice and View G3 software. The sample was a heavy metal stained and resin embedded Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) that were exposed to 60 nm Au nanoparticles. Detailed descriptions of the worm preparation and resin block processing are described in Johnson, M.E. et al. (ACS Nano, 2016).

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as an analytical standard of known purity. It is intended primarily for use in the calibration and standardization of procedures for potassium (K) and chloride (Cl-) determinations employed in clinical analysis, including those using ion-selective electrodes, and for routine critical evaluation of the daily working standards used in these procedures. This lot of potassium chloride (KCl) was prepared to ensure a material of high purity and homogeneity and has been assayed after heating at 110 degrees C to 120 degrees C.

All the data in this project are generated running Density Functional (DFT) simulation either on NIST computer clusters of through our collaborators at University of Florida. The final data consist in relaxed atomic structures and corresponding energetic, mechanical, electronic and phonon properties. The metadata consist in the initial and relaxed structures, the description of the code, of the k points and of all the parameters used in running the simulations (energy or real space cutoff, type of minimization, occupation, etc.).

The Micronutrients Measurement Quality Assurance Program (MMQAP) was coordinated by the Chemical Sciences Division and supported measurement technology for selected fat- and water-soluble vitamins and carotenoids in human serum. This program was initiated in 1984 by the National Cancer Institute Division of Cancer Prevention and Control to ensure the long-term reliability of the measurements made while studying the possible cancer chemoprevention roles of these compounds.

The Manufacturing Cost Guide is a tool that estimates the costs that US manufacturers face and can be used to help gauge the potential returns on manufacturing industry research projects through cost reductions. These costs are grouped into various standardized categories such as the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and the Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system along with other non-standardized costs.

The tool can be used to answer questions such as:

The NIST DART-MS Forensics Database is an evaluated collection of in-source collisionally-induced dissociation (is-CID) mass spectra of compounds of interest to the forensics community (e.g. seized drugs, cutting agents, etc.). The is-CID mass spectra were collected using Direct Analysis in Real-Time (DART) Mass Spectrometry (MS), either by NIST scientists or by contributing agencies noted per compound. The database is provided as a general-purpose structure data file (.SDF).

These four data files contain datasets from an interlaboratory comparison that characterized a polydisperse five-population bead dispersion in water. A more detailed version of this description is available in the ReadMe file (PdP-ILC_datasets_ReadMe_v1.txt), which also includes definitions of abbreviations used in the data files. Paired samples were evaluated, so the datasets are organized as pairs associated with a randomly assigned laboratory number.
