Controllability properties of nonlinear behaviors

This paper proposes a topological framework for the analysis of the time shift on behaviors. It is shown that controllability is not a property of the time shift, while chain controllability is. This also leads to a global decomposition of behaviors.

     

Chelating Complexes of Diethylzinc and ZnCl2 with 2,2‐Bipyridine and 1,6,7,12,13,18‐Hexaazatrinaphthylene (HATN) as Ligands

The 1,6,7,12,13,18‐hexaazatrinaphthylene (HATN) complex [(Et₂Zn)₃(μ₃‐HATN)] was synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, UV/Vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis and ESI‐MS spectrometry. Attempts to prepare ZnCl₂ complexes of HATN leads only to the mononuclear [(Cl₂Zn)(HATN)] derivative, characterized by X‐ray diffraction, IR‐ and UV/Vis‐spectroscopy as well as ESI‐MS spectrometry. The bright red 2,2′‐bipyridine (bipy) complex [(Et₂Zn)(bipy)] ( 1 ) was synthesized and characterized by X‐ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopy. The UV/Vis‐spectra of the HATN‐complexes show absorptions in regions of far longer wavelengths than the corresponding 2,2′‐bipyridine or 1,10‐phenantroline complexes. Consequently the π*‐LUMO of HATN ( 5 ) is lower in energy than the π*‐LUMO of 2,2′‐bipyridine ( 2 ) or 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen).

The influence of different evaluation techniques on the results of interlaboratory comparisons

The influence of different evaluation techniques on the results of an interlaboratory comparison for the determination of nutrients in ground- and surface water was investigated. The outlier-test procedure was found to influence the interlaboratory standard deviations (SDs), but not the averages. It was shown that even small differences in the numbers of outliers detected can change the SD severely. Comparing the outlier-test procedures of Hampel, Grubbs and Graf-Henning, it was found that Hampel's test detected the most outliers, thus generally resulting in smaller SDs between interlaboratory comparisons. The Graf-Henning test detected the fewest outliers and its application resulted in the highest SDs of the three test procedures investigated. The comparison of different summarising indices, namely the rescaled sum of z-scores, average of absolute z-scores and average deviation showed no comparability. Possibilities to improve the comparability of interlaboratory comparisons and to minimise misunderstandings are suggested.     

Development of reference materials for microbiological analysis

The reliability of reference materials (RMs) depends on properties such as fitness, robustness, commutability, stability and homogeneity. The development of RMs for microbiological analysis is especially challenged through questions around the stabilisation and recovery of viable cells, the dispersion of precise numbers of cells, matrix effects and, when using molecular techniques, the presence of nucleic acids (e.g. DNA) of dead and live target organisms. However, RMs are indispensable tools for quality control in microbiological analysis. The Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements (IRMM), as part of the European Commission, concentrates its efforts on the development of RMs to support the development, implementation and monitoring of EU legislation. A special focus is given to highly precise RMs for presence/absence and enumeration tests in microbiological food and water analysis. Another group of new RMs certified by the IRMM comprise DNA-based materials to control the identity of micro-organisms in qualitative assays. All of these activities serve to improve quality control in microbiological analysis. Presented at ‘BERM-10’, April 2006, Charleston, SC, USA.
