IS THERE AN APP FOR THAT?
HIGHLIGHTS OF APPS FOR SPECTROSCOPY
APP NAME: Shimadzu IR
OFFERED BY: Shimadzu Business Systems Corporation
PLATFORMS: iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (requires iOS 4.3 or later, optimized for iPhone 5)
WHAT IT DOES: The Shimadzu IR app is designed as a tool for users of Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometers. According to the company, the app allows users to check the physical and chemical characteristics of optical materials and view suitable measurement techniques for them. The converter option allows for unit conversions, such as wavelength to wavenumber.

FT-IR Analysis of pH and Xylitol Driven Conformational Changes of Ovalbumin–Amide VI Band Study
November 21st 2024This study uses Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to analyze how the globular protein ovalbumin's secondary structures transition under varying pH conditions in the presence of the cosolvent xylitol, highlighting the role of noncovalent interactions in these conformational changes.
