Detection of somatic mosaicism in non-proliferative cells is a new challenge in genome research, however, the accuracy of current detection strategies remains uncertain due to the lack of a ground truth. Herein, we sought to present a set of reference standards based on a total of 386,613 mosaic single-nucleotide…

One of the basic principles of dimensional metrology is that a part dimension changes with temperature because of thermal expansion. Since 1931 industrial lengths have been defined as the size at 20 °C. This paper discusses the variety of standard temperatures that were in use before that date, the efforts of C.E.…

Quantitative proteomics is an indispensable tool in life science research. However, there is a lack of reference materials for evaluating the reproducibility of label-free liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based measurements among different instruments and laboratories. We developed the Quartet…

Reference intervals are commonly used as a decision-making tool. In this review, we provide an overview on “big data” and reference intervals, describing the rationale, current practices including statistical methods, essential prerequisites concerning data quality, including harmonization and standardization, and…

Reference intervals (RIs) are a range of values that are supplied alongside laboratory measurements for comparison to allow interpretation of this data. Historically, RIs were referred to as the normal range. However, the perception of what is normal can lead to confusion in clinicians and unnecessary emotional…

Electrochemical techniques have been extensively employed across various fields of research due to their pivotal role in advancing the clean energy transition. This interdisciplinary integration, however, requires special attention to the fundamental aspects of electrochemistry. As the number of researchers adopting…

This document describes an XML encoding standard for metadata about IVOA standards themselves, referred to as StandardsRegExt. It is intended to allow for the discovery of a standard via an IVOA identifier that refers to the standard. It also allows one to define concepts that are defined by the standard which can…

Obtaining accurate enthalpies of formation of chemical species, Hf, often requires empirical corrections that connect the results of quantum mechanical (QM) calculations with the experimental enthalpies of elements in their standard state. One approach is to use atomization energy corrections (AECs) followed by bond…

Benchmarking, standards and certification are closely related processes. Standards can provide normative requirements that robotics and AI systems may or may not conform to. Certification generally relies upon conformance with one or more standards as the key determinant of granting a certificate to operate. And…

—Context. The use of standards is considered a vital part of any engineering discipline. So one could expect that standards play an important role in Requirements Engineering (RE) as well. However, little is known about the actual knowledge and use of RE-related standards in industry. Objective. In this article, we…

'Jean-Luc Barraud' 'P. Lamboley'] Abstract: problems faced by international standardization bodies become more and more crucial as the number and the size of the standards they produce increase. Sometimes, also, the lack of coordination among the committees in charge of the development of standards may lead to…

Thermophysical properties of adsorbates and gas-phase species define the free energy landscape of heterogeneously catalyzed processes and are pivotal for an atomistic understanding of the catalyst performance. These thermophysical properties, such as the free energy or the enthalpy, are typically derived from density…

Introduction Establishing robust reference intervals for clinical procedures has received much attention from international clinical laboratories, with approved guidelines. Physiological measurement laboratories have given this topic less attention; however, most of the principles are transferable. Methods Herein, we…

To obtain accurate enthalpies of formation of a chemical species, Hf, one needs a procedure to quantitatively connect the results from quantum mechanical (QM) calculations with the experimental enthalpies of elements in their standard state, often along with additional empirical corrections. Although QM methods…

This is a written version of a memorial lecture given in honor of Churchill Eisenhart at the National Institute of Standards and Technology on May 5, 1995. The relationship and the interplay between statistics and standards over the past centuries are described. Historical examples are presented to illustrate mutual…

Total protein isolation followed by quantitation is a common protocol in many laboratories. Quantitation is often done using a colorimetric assay such as the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay in which a change in the color of the BCA reagent is related to protein concentration. Extracted protein samples are compared to a…

The Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) Proteomics Standards Initiative (PSI) has been successfully developing guidelines, data formats, and controlled vocabularies (CVs) for the proteomics community and other fields supported by mass spectrometry since its inception twenty years ago. Here we describe the general…

Results: The standard problem arises from uncertainty driven by variations in operating context, standard quality, differences in implementation, and drift over time. As a result, fitting work using conformance services is needed to repair these gaps between a standard and what is required for real-world use. To guide…

Essential functionality in the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) space draws from standards such as HTTP (IETF RFC 2616, Bluetooth (IEEE 802.15) and various telecommunication standards (4G, 5G). They have fuelled rapid growth of ICT sector in the last decades by ensuring interoperability and consistency in…

The most widely used Western blotting protein standards are prestained proteins of known molecular mass (kDa). They are also utilized for sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (PAGE) to determine the molecular mass of proteins separated by electrophoresis. The objective of this study was to…

Standardization of data and models facilitates effective communication, especially in computational systems biology. However, both the development and consistent use of standards and resources remains challenging. As a result, the amount, quality, and format of the information contained within systems biology models…

In this work we present a new approach to fix the intruder state problem (ISP) in CASPT2 based on σp regularization. The resulting \$σ^p\$-CASPT2 method is compared to previous techniques, namely the real and imaginary level shifts, on a theoretical basis and by performing a series of systematic calculations. The…
