Major Products/Services
CEM offers two platforms, a variety of vessels, and options for microwave digestion to ensure fast, complete, and reproducible digestions for a wide range of sample types. Run up to 40 samples simultaneously with the MARS 6 with One Touch(tm) Technology, a series of smart features that help automate the digestion process. MARS 6 automatically identifies and counts vessels, determines all of the parameters, adjust power output, and performs the digestion for all major sample types. Discover(r) SP-D digests most samples in 10 min or less including cooldown. Discover SP-D offers individual parameter programming for each sample and an optional Autosampler.
Facility
CEM's global headquarters, research laboratories, and manufacturing facilities are located in Matthews, North Carolina. The company has subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Italy, France, and Japan as well as more than 50 distributors worldwide.

Improving Fluorescence and Raman Techniques for Environmental Microplastic Analysis
March 31st 2025A recent study conducted at the LaserLaB Amsterdam and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (the Netherlands) explored spectroscopic imaging techniques, including Raman and fluorescence microscopy, for characterizing microplastics (MPs), focusing on optimizing sample preparation, particularly density separation, and Nile Red staining.Spectroscopy spoke to Merel Konings, corresponding author of the paper resulting from the study, about her work
New Study Provides Insights into Chiral Smectic Phases
March 31st 2025Researchers from the Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences have unveiled new insights into the molecular arrangement of the 7HH6 compound’s smectic phases using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy.
