Extending the Range of MCT Focal Plane Arrays-Based Imaging Systems to Near IR Imaging Applications

Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) are emerging contaminants requiring robust analytical techniques for identification and quantification in diverse environmental and biological matrices. This review highlights various spectroscopy methods, such as Raman, FT-IR, NIR, ICP-MS, Fluorescence, X-ray, and NMR detailing their methodologies, sample handling, and applications for characterizing MPs and NPs.

An interview with Charles Wilkins, the winner of the 2013 American Chemical Society Division of Analytical Chemistry Award in Chemical Instrumentation, sponsored by the Dow Chemical Company.

See Raman imaging investigate living cell components & plant cell walls, recognize atherosclerosis, differentiate malignant cells, monitor lipid uptake, and much more.

A recent study out of Russia introduced a new method for identifying plant-based oils and adulterated dairy products.

This work demonstrates the ability of PerkinElmer's Avio® 550 Max ICP-OES to provide highly accurate determinations of major components in hemodialysis solutions

Researchers from the University of Cordoba have validated a novel spectroscopy technique to help distinguish between extra virgin and virgin olive oils. This approach could support existing panel-based tests, which are often slow, costly, and subjective, by providing a faster, non-destructive screening option.
