Complete digestion of food samples (Jan 2025)

BLADE was used to digest various food samples, including those with high fat content, high protein content, and even high carbohydrate followed by analysis using ICP-MS.

Heavy metals in baby food is a current topic near and dear to parents worldwide. In this app note, learn how to digest 5 g baby food samples in 5 mL of acid.

The C16767MA miniaturized ultraviolet (UV) spectrometer, developed by Hamamatsu, offers a groundbreaking solution for real-time, on-site water quality monitoring, replacing traditional, labor-intensive methods.

Melting point determination using ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry can be used as a sequence-specific method for identifying therapeutic oligonucleotides in pharmaceutical quality control. This method offers a simple, highly selective approach to differentiate between isomers and ensure the integrity of oligonucleotide active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug products.

Transmittance and reflectance measurements, which are useful for estimating the effects of various physical processes, can include thermal treatments, ionizing radiation exposure, optical exposure, and mechanical treatments—on both crystals and thin films.

Confocal Raman microscopy enables detailed and non-destructive analysis of semiconductors. In the video we present the application of confocal Raman microscopy to analyze material characteristics including doping, stress fields, crystallinity and warpage of a 150 mm (6 inch) silicon carbide (SiC) wafer. To maintain this nanoscale-precision across the macroscopically large x and y dimensions of an entire wafer, we used the WITec alpha300 Semiconductor Edition Raman microscope.
