A new measurement of the velocity of electromagnetic radiation is described. The result has been obtained, using micro-waves at a frequency of 24005 Mc/s ( λ = 1∙25 cm), with a form of interferometer which enables the free-space wave-length to be evaluated. Since the micro-wave frequency can also be ascertained, phase velocity is calculated from the product of frequency and wave-length. The most important aspect of the experiment is the application to the measured wave-length of a correction which arises from diffraction of the micro-wave beam. This correction is new to interferometry and is discussed in detail. The result obtained for the velocity, reduced to vacuum conditions, is c 0 = 299792∙6 ± 0∙7 km/s.

Abstract A study was conducted to investigate the selective cleanup and determination of aflatoxin B1 (AfB1) from contaminated media. Composite adsorbents were formulated from calcium montmorillonite clay, which possesses a high affinity and enthalpy of adsorption for AfB1. Nanostructuring techniques were used to construct various formulations of the clay-based composite media. In AfB1 adsorption studies with prototypical affinity columns, these composites offered narrowly defined, reproducible capacity ranges. Composite recoveries of AfB1 from spiked grains exhibited linear trends that correlated well with the range of spike levels. Composite columns provided lower recoveries of AfB1 from naturally contaminated corn than did immunoaffinity columns; however, recoveries were consistent and purified extracts were free of inter-fering compounds, as determined by liquid chro-matography with fluorescence detection.
