Research sponsored by BFRIP regarding the use of brominated flame retardants shows that there is no evidence that the use of decabromodiphenyl oxide leads to any unusual risk. In addition, a study by the National Bureau of Standards (now National Institute of Science and Technology) showed that the use of flame retardants significantly decreased the ha2ards associated with burning of common materials under reaUstic fire conditions (73). Work ia Japan confirms this finding (74).

For conformance to GMP or ISO 9000 requirements, instmment cahbration must be documented to include identification of the instmment and the cahbration standard. The standard must be traceable to a recognized standard such as from the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST). Cahbration documentation also includes the method of cahbration and a record of the cahbration results.

Laser Cooling The 1997 Nobel Prize in physics was shared by Steven Chu of Stanford University, William D. Phillips of the National Institute of Science and Technology, and Claude N. Cohen-Tannoudje of the College de France for their development and theoretical explanation of laser cooling, a process that can lower the temperature of a gas to a very low value. 

Storage chambers should be validated with respect to their ability to maintain the desired conditions, and, if so equipped, the ability to sound an alarm if a mechanical or electrical failure causes the temperature to deviate from preestabilished limits. They should also be equipped with recording devices, which will provide a continuous and permanent history of their operation. Logbooks should be maintained and frequent readings or mercury-in-glass, National Institute of Science and Technology traceable thermometers recorded.

Other bimolecular reactions of complex systems, such as those of benzene and iodine and acid-base reactions, have also been studied. Currently, we are examining the inelastic and reactive collision of halogen atoms with polyatomics (e.g., CH3I). Other groups at the National Institutes of Science and Technology and at the University of Southern California have studied a new class of reactions O + CH4 — [CH3OH] — CH3 + OH and H + ON2 — HO + N2 or HN + NO. 

Focus identification on the odor-active regions as determined by GC-sniffing and RI values as published in the Flavomet (http //www.nysaes.cornell.edu/flavornet). The fragmentation pattern obtained for the compounds can be compared with those in data banks like the Wiley/NBS Registry of Mass Spectral data (McLafferty and Stauffer, 2000) or the NIST 98 library (National Institute of Science and Technology).

Additionally there is the Crystal Data Identification File (CDIF), maintained by the US National Institute of Science and Technology, which stores unit cell parameters and crystal class information (determined by either single-crystal or powder diffraction) for all types of substances. The CDIF does not store any information on atomic positions, indeed it does not require the frill structure to be known. Nevertheless, it provides a very useful preliminary check at the start of a new structure analysis. Currently the CDIF contains ca. 237 000 entries, with a large backlog.

The GC-MS retention time and mass spectra of peak B are closely matched with the retention time and mass spectra of hydroquinone standard. The mass spectra of hydroquinone also show the same M+ peak at m/e 194 and [M-AC2]+ peak at m/e 110 as peak B. In addition, the mass spectra of peak B also closely match those of the acetylated hydroquinone in the computer database of the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) mass spectral library. That is, peak B corresponds to acetylated hydroquinone.
