Oral

A number of synchrotron-based techniques are increasingly being used to investigate nutrients and contaminant metals in a variety of environmental and biological samples. The advantages of these techniques are well known: minimal sample preparation (e.g. reduce risk of artefacts), high lateral and spatial resolution, ability to probe the speciation of elements in situ. However, until recently,...

Oral

The National Deuteration Facility (NDF) at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) provides deuteration for a diversity of molecules and applications. Molecular deuteration of organic compounds and biomolecules significantly increases the options in complex structure function investigations using neutron scattering and reflectometry, nuclear magnetic resonance...
