Improved Performance and Functionality in UV-Visible Measurements

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.

This study provides an overview of correlative Raman imaging, PL and topographic analyses of compound semiconductors used to characterize composition and defects.

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

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.

In this poster presentation applications manager Ute Schmidt discusses the use of correlative Raman-SEM (RISE Microscopy) imaging for analyzing silicon-carbide (SiC) ceramics. The main focus of the work is investigating the distribution of sub-micron structured polytypes of SiC grains on and below the surface.
