9. Bacterial endospore detection using terbium dipicolinate photoluminescence in the presence of chemical and biological materials

Abstract

A determination of the viability of an endospore detection technique using terbium dipicolinate photoluminescence in the presence of other chemical and biological materials was performed. The compounds and organisms examined, possible environmental constituents, covered three broad categories: organic compounds, inorganic compounds, and biological materials. Each substance was tested for a false positive, which occurs if the intrinsic terbium photoluminescence is enhanced in the absence of a bacterial endospore. The detection technique was also investigated for false negatives, which occur if a known positive endospore signal is inhibited significantly. Although several materials may give rise to false negative signals, none caused a false positive signal to be observed.

21. Mechanical resonance detected with a Michelson interferometer

Abstract

A resonant system consisting of a Michelson interferometer illuminated by 1-mW helium-neon laser's unexpanded beam is proposed for physical optics and upper-division mechanics lecture demonstrations. The oscilloscope is ideal for demonstrating fringe signal since it features smoothly varied driving frequency behavior. The oscillator can also demonstrate nonlinearity through resonant frequency reduction.
