Investigation of Kerosene used as Fire Accelerant Remaining on Different Kinds of Fabrics

open access: yesArab Journal of Forensic Sciences & Forensic Medicine, 2019
In arson cases, the detection and identification of fire accelerants is of high importance for elucidation of such crimes. The present study aims to investigate the remaining fraction of kerosene hydrocarbons impregnated on four kinds of textiles (nylon,

Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...

Solid-Phase Microextraction Arrow for the Sampling of Volatile Organic Compounds in Milk Samples

open access: yesSeparations, 2020
A novel sample preparation method based on the use of the Arrow solid-phase microextraction device was used to extract and preconcentrate volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from milk samples prior to their determination by gas chromatography–mass ...

Volatile organic compounds emitted from fungal-rotting beech (Fagus sylvatica) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Chemo-communication is an important mode of interaction within ecosystem. The living organism in the ecosystem can deliver signals to conspecifics, to co-organisms, and unintentionally to their enemies, by emitting the volatile organic compounds (VOCs ...

Progress in Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering‐Based Volatile Organic Compounds Detection: Materials, Application, and Prospects

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) holds significant implications in environmental monitoring and disease diagnosis. Traditional gas detection technologies are constrained by complex operation and high cost, thereby failing to satisfy real‐time detection demands.

Random attractors for stochastic porous media equations perturbed by space-time linear multiplicative noise

open access: yes, 2014
Unique existence of solutions to porous media equations driven by continuous linear multiplicative space-time rough signals is proven for initial data in $L^1(\mathcal {O})$ on bounded domains $\mathcal {O}$.

Illicit Drug‐Derived Volatile Organic Compounds as Markers for Application in Noncontact Detection Technology

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This review highlights the characteristic odor markers of illicit drugs, emphasizing volatile markers from both natural and synthetic sources, and explores the shift from canine‐based detection to emerging noncontact sensing technologies. Illicit drug use remains a global concern, requiring effective detection methods to counter evolving concealment ...

Autoxidation of lipids in parchment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Historic parchment is a macromolecular material, which is complex due to its natural origin, inhomogeneity of the skin structure, unknown environmental history and potential localised degradation.

Pollination‐related plant traits under environmental changes: Seasonal and daily mismatches produce temporal constraints

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Pollination is a key tenet of ecosystem sustainability and food security, but it is threatened by climate change. While many studies investigated the response of plant‐pollination traits to temperature, few attempted multifactorial and integrative approaches with ...
