Vol 35 No s2 Raman Technology for Today's Spectroscopists

A new deep learning-enhanced spectroscopic platform—SERSome—developed by researchers in China and Finland, identifies medicinal and edible homologs (MEHs) with 98% accuracy. This innovation could revolutionize safety and quality control in the growing MEH market.

An interview with Paul Pudney, a winner of the William F. Meggers Award.

Researchers at Delft University of Technology have developed a novel method using single compound spectra to enhance the transferability and accuracy of Raman spectroscopy models for real-time fermentation monitoring.

Volker Deckert, the winner of the 2013 Charles Mann Award, is advancing the use of tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) to push the lateral resolution of vibrational spectroscopy well below the Abbe limit, to achieve single-molecule sensitivity. Because the tip can be moved with sub-nanometer precision, structural information with unmatched spatial resolution can be achieved without the need of specific labels.

A recent study introduces a new development in cancer research using Raman spectroscopy.

A recent study demonstrated the utility of Raman spectroscopy and machine learning (ML) algorithms to classify plastic types found in waste of electric and electronic equipment (WEEE) streams.
