At PNNL, scientists are collaborating with physical chemistry scientists to push the frontiers of quantitative imaging of natural and artificial nanoparticles, by using single particle laser ablation time-of-flight mass spectrometry – more affectionately known as SPLAT II. The photo shows a scanning electron microscope image of a gold nanorod array used to calibrate the SPLAT II system.

About the Author
Rich Whitworth
Rich Whitworth completed his studies in medical biochemistry at the University of Leicester, UK, in 1998. To cut a long story short, he escaped to Tokyo to spend five years working for the largest English language publisher in Japan. "Carving out a career in the megalopolis that is Tokyo changed my outlook forever. When seeing life through such a kaleidoscopic lens, it's hard not to get truly caught up in the moment." On returning to the UK, after a few false starts with grey, corporate publishers, Rich was snapped up by Texere Publishing, where he spearheaded the editorial development of The Analytical Scientist. "I feel honored to be part of the close-knit team that forged The Analytical Scientist – we've created a very fresh and forward-thinking publication." Rich is now also Content Director of Texere Publishing, the company behind The Analytical Scientist.
