Use of participant EQA results to assess sample homogeneity and stability for qualitative analytes

International requirements for PT and EQA state that providers must demonstrate that samples are homogeneous and stable. However, testing for homogeneity and stability can be expensive, use samples that could otherwise serve as quality-control materials, and can also fail to detect significant inhomogeneity and instability. In some situations it may be preferable to use the results from participants to identify problems with sample lots, if historic results follow predictable distributions and a statistical decision rule can be produced. An unusually high proportion of incorrect results may indicate that samples were inhomogeneous or unstable. Conditions under which this can be demonstrated are discussed, and the efficacy of the proposal is demonstrated with two examples. This procedure is especially effective when there are a large number of participants and/or a historic small proportion of incorrect results. Providers who adopt this proposal will need to retain samples for testing and assume the risk of distributing bad samples.Presented at the Eurachem PT Workshop September 2005, Portorož, Slovenia     

镱(Ⅲ)卟啉配合物的合成、结构表征和近红外光谱研究

合成了5个meso-位和β-位具有不同取代基的Yb(Ⅲ)卟啉配合物(2a~2e), 并对其结构进行了表征; 研究了配合物的可见光谱和近红外光谱性质, 测得了相关的量子产率和荧光寿命. 研究结果表明, 此类中性单核Yb(Ⅲ)卟啉配合物由于Yb³⁺的存在, 导致卟啉配体发生π→π*跃迁, 并将吸收的可见光能量传递给Yb³⁺的激发态, 使得配合物在近红外光区有很强的发光, 且meso-位为供电子基团的Yb(Ⅲ)卟啉配合物的发光效率比含吸电子基团的Yb(Ⅲ)卟啉配合物高, 而β-位溴化的Yb(Ⅲ)卟啉配合物的发光效率较差.     

Nucleophilic Addition of CH, NH, and OH Bonds to the Phosphadiazonium Cation and Interpretation of (31)P Chemical Shifts at Dicoordinate Phosphorus Centers

The phosphadiazonium cation [MesNP](+) reacts quantitatively with the fluorenylide anion, MesNH(2), and MesOH (Mes = 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl), resulting in formal insertion of the N-P moiety into the H-Y (Y = C, N, O) bonds. Specifically, reaction of MesNPCl with fluorenyllithium gives the aminofluorenylidenephosphine [crystal data: C(31)H(38)NP, monoclinic, P2(1)/c, a = 9.568(8) ?, b = 24.25(2) ?, c = 11.77(1) ?, beta = 101.38(8) degrees, Z = 4]. Similarly, reaction of [MesNP][GaCl(4)] with MesNH(2) gives the diaminophosphenium salt [MesN(H)PN(H)Mes][GaCl(4)] [crystal data: C(36)H(60)Cl(4)GaN(2)P, monoclinic, C2/c, a = 24.921(2) ?, b = 10.198(4) ?, c = 16.445(2) ?, beta = 93.32(1) degrees, Z = 4], and reaction with MesOH gives the first example of an aminooxyphosphenium salt [MesN(H)POMes][GaCl(4)]. It is proposed that the reactions involve nucleophilic attack at phosphorus followed by a 1,3-hydrogen migration from Y to N. Experimental evidence for the formation of sigma-complex intermediates is provided by the isolation of [MesNP-PPh(3)][SO(3)CF(3)] [crystal data: C(37)H(44)F(3)NO(3)P(2)S, triclinic, P&onemacr;, a = 10.663(1) ?, b = 19.439(1) ?, c = 10.502(1) ?, alpha = 103.100(7) degrees, beta = 113.311(7) degrees, gamma = 93.401(7) degrees, Z = 2]. As part of the unequivocal characterization of the aminooxyphosphenium salt, detailed solid-state (31)P NMR studies and GIAO calculations on the phosphenium cations have been performed. Contrary to popular belief, the phosphorus shielding in dicoordinate cations is not caused by the positive charge but results from efficient mixing between the phosphorus lone pair and pi orbitals.

EFFECT OF INTERNAL VISCOSITY OF POLYMERIC FLUIDS UNDER STRONG EXTENSIONAL FLOWS

The dumbbell model with internal viscosity for a dilute polymer solution is investigated based on a balance of viscous drag and restoring Brownian forces.An approximate method is used to obtain the solution of extensional stress in closed form in the case of steady flow.For different internal viscosities,this parametric study shows different asymptotic regimes of the extensional viscosity as a function of strain rate.This analysis may explain the attenuation of pressure drop in strong flows from a phenom...

DIFFERENTIAL-ALGEBRAIC APPROACH TO COUPLED PROBLEMS OF DYNAMIC THERMOELASTICITY

An efficient numerical approach for the general thermomechanical problems was developed and it was tested for a two-dimensional thermoelasticity problem. The main idea of our numerical method is based on the reduction procedure of the original system of PDEs describing coupled thermomechanical behavior to a system of Differential Algebraic Equations (DAEs) where the stress-strain relationships are treated as algebraic equations. The resulting system of DAEs was then solved with a Backward Differentiation Formula (BDF) using a fully implicit algorithm. The described procedure was explained in detail, and its effectiveness was demonstrated on the solution of a transient uncoupled thermoelastic problem, for which an analytical solution is known, as well as on a fully coupled problem in the two-dimensional case.
