Nectar-inhabiting microorganisms influence nectar volatile composition and attractiveness to a generalist pollinator.
TL;DR: The presence of fungi and bacteria in the nectar of a coflowering plant community is examined, the volatiles produced by common nectar microbes are characterized, and electrophysiological and behavioral responses of honey bees to microbial volatile are examined.
Volatile emanations from in vitro airway cells infected with human rhinovirus
Michael Schivo,Alexander A. Aksenov,Angela L. Linderholm,Mitchell M. McCartney,Jason Simmons,Richart W Harper,Cristina E. Davis +6 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that VOCs obtained from the headspace of respiratory cell culture will differentiate healthy cells from those infected with HRV is tested, and it is postulated that these compounds may serve as biomarkers of HRV infection.
An Easy to Manufacture Micro Gas Preconcentrator for Chemical Sensing Applications
Mitchell M. McCartney,Yuriy Zrodnikov,Alexander G. Fung,Michael K. LeVasseur,Josephine M. Pedersen,Konstantin O. Zamuruyev,Alexander A. Aksenov,Nicholas J. Kenyon,Cristina E. Davis +8 more
TL;DR: A simple-to-manufacture microfabricated gas preconcentrator for MEMS-based chemical sensing applications that was capable of measuring analytes down to 22 ppb with only a 2 min sample loading time using a gas chromatograph with a flame ionization detector.
Headspace sorptive extraction-gas chromatography–mass spectrometry method to measure volatile emissions from human airway cell cultures
Mei S. Yamaguchi,Mitchell M. McCartney,Angela L. Linderholm,Susan E. Ebeler,Michael Schivo,Cristina E. Davis +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors improved their model by employing sorbent-covered magnetic stir bars for headspace sorptive extraction (HSSE), which increased the headspace recovery by 52 times and captured 97 more compounds than SPME.

Wearable Environmental Monitor To Quantify Personal Ambient Volatile Organic Compound Exposures.
Alexander G. Fung,Maneeshin Y. Rajapakse,Mitchell M. McCartney,Alexandria K Falcon,Fauna M. Fabia,Nicholas J. Kenyon,Cristina E. Davis +6 more
TL;DR: A portable and wearable sampler that collects environmental VOCs in a person's immediate "exposure envelope" onto custom micro-preconcentrator chips for later benchtop analysis and the system can be programmed to accumulate sample for various times with varying periodicity.
