Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2020 May;
117(21):11321-11327.
PMID: 32393627
The neonicotinoid nitenpyram (NPM) is a multifunctional nitroenamine [(RN)(RN)C=CHNO] pesticide. As a nitroalkene, it is structurally similar to other emerging contaminants such as the pharmaceuticals ranitidine and nizatidine. Because ozone...

Environ Sci Process Impacts
. 2019 Nov;
22(1):66-83.
PMID: 31670732
Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) particles are ubiquitous in air and understanding the mechanism by which they grow is critical for predicting their effects on visibility and climate. The uptake of...

Rapid Commun Mass Spectrom
. 2019 Aug;
34(10):e8561.
PMID: 31429122
Rationale: Contaminants present in ambient air or in sampling lines can interfere with the target analysis through overlapping peaks or causing a high background. This study presents a positive outcome...

J Agric Food Chem
. 2019 Jan;
67(6):1638-1646.
PMID: 30698961
Neonicotinoids (NN), first introduced in 1991, are found on environmental surfaces where they undergo photolytic degradation. Photolysis studies of thin films of NN were performed using two approaches: (1) transmission...

Phys Chem Chem Phys
. 2018 Aug;
20(34):22249-22259.
PMID: 30123899
The effect of water on the growth of dry nano-size acid-base particles is not yet known. In this paper, we investigate the uptake of water by nano-size particles composed of...

. 2018 Jan;
52(5):2760-2767.
PMID: 29345468
The environmental fates of nitenpyram (NPM), a widely used neonicotinoid insecticide, are not well-known. A thin solid film of NPM deposited on a germanium attenuated total reflectance (ATR) crystal was...

Phys Chem Chem Phys
. 2017 Nov;
19(47):31949-31957.
PMID: 29177355
Mechanisms of particle formation and growth in the atmosphere are of great interest due to their impacts on climate, health and visibility. However, the microscopic structures and related properties of...

Phys Chem Chem Phys
. 2017 Oct;
19(41):28286-28301.
PMID: 29028063
Atmospheric particles influence visibility, health and climate but the mechanisms of their formation from initial clusters and their growth to detectable particles remain largely unknown. Previous studies show that reactions...

Knudsen cell studies of the uptake of gaseous ammonia and amines onto C3-C7 solid dicarboxylic acids
Fairhurst M, Ezell M, Finlayson-Pitts B
Phys Chem Chem Phys
. 2017 Sep;
19(38):26296-26309.
PMID: 28936531
While atmospheric particles affect health, visibility and climate, the details governing their formation and growth are poorly understood on a molecular level. A simple model system for understanding the interactions...

Rapid Commun Mass Spectrom
. 2017 Aug;
31(19):1659-1668.
PMID: 28782138
Rationale: Ambient ionization mass spectrometry methods are convenient, sensitive and require little sample preparation. However, they are susceptible to species present in air surrounding the mass spectrometer. This study identifies...
