Standard Reference Material 3949 Folate Vitamers in Frozen Human Serum

Standard Reference Material 909c Frozen Human Serum - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended primarily for use in validating analytical methods for the determination of specified constituents in human serum. This SRM can also be used for quality assurance when assigning values to in house control materials. A unit of SRM 909c consists of three vials, each containing 2 mL of frozen human serum. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

Standard Reference Material (SRM) 968 and its reissues are human serum based materials used as validation standards by clinical, epidemiological, and nutrition laboratories. Historically, about 300 units of this SRM have been sold annually. Based on this annual sales projection, as of November 1, 2015 there were about 16 months of inventory of the current issue: SRM 968e Fat-Soluble Vitamins, Carotenoids, and Cholesterol in Human Serum.

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 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 dataset contains thermographic measurements acquired during single and multiple track scans on bare substrates and on single layers of powder. The substrates and powder are nickel alloy 625 and the experiments are performed inside a commercial laser powder bed fusion machine. There are four experiment cases: 1) a single scan track on a bare substrate, 2) a single scan track on a single hand-spread layer of powder, 3) multiple (39) scan tracks covering an area on a bare substrate, and 4) multiple (39) scan tracks solidifying a single hand-spread layer of powder.

The Additive Manufacturing Benchmark Test Series (AM-Bench) is developing a continuing series of controlled benchmark tests, in conjunction with a conference series, with two initial goals: 1) to allow modelers to test their simulations against rigorous, highly controlled additive manufacturing benchmark test data, and 2) to encourage additive manufacturing practitioners to develop novel mitigation strategies for challenging build scenarios.

These measurements were performed as part of the 2018 Additive Manufacturing Benchmark Test Series (AM-Bench), specifically supporting the melt pool geometry challenge (CHAL-AMB2018-02-MP) and cooling rate challenge (CHAL-AMB2018-02-CR).

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.
