Mineralization of bone is achieved by the sequential maturation of the immature amorphous calcium phase to mature hydroxyapatite and is central to the process of bone development and repair. To study normal and dysregulated mineralization in vitro, s... Read More about Raman spectroscopy links differentiating osteoblast matrix signatures to pro-angiogenic potential.

The use of Lorentzian model lineshapes leads to systematic errors in the quantification of in vivo (1)H NMR spectra. Experimental lineshapes are better modeled by the Voigt (mixed Lorentzian-Gaussian) function, leading to more accurate fits (reduced...

The approximation of the Voigt line shape by the linear summation of Lorentzian and Gaussian line shapes of equal width is well documented and has proved to be a useful function for modeling in vivo (1)H NMR spectra. We show that the error in determi... Read More about An analytical derivation of a popular approximation of the Voigt function for quantification of NMR spectra..

Use of Voigt line shape for quantification of in Vivo ‘H spectra. (1997)

Quantification of NMR visible metabolites by spectral modeling
usually assumes a Lorentzian or Gaussian lineshape, despite
the fact that experimental lineshapes are neither. To
minimize systematic fitting errors, a mixed Lorentzian-Gaussian
