Similarly, PiF-IR (photo-induced force infrared) spectroscopy is one of the few options for obtaining IR absorption spectra ...

Definition:Raman Spectroscopy is a sophisticated analytical technique used to observe vibrational, rotational, and other low-frequency modes in a system. This material characterization technique ...

During light scattering, the majority of scattered light undergoes no change in frequency (or energy), in a process referred to as referred to as elastic or Rayleigh scattering. Raman spectroscopy ...

Vaccine development, disease diagnosis and early medical intervention are all supported by Raman spectroscopy. This tool provides rich, chemically-specific data that enables point-of-care utilization ...

Advances in a range of developmental and analytical tools drive the pharmaceutical industry toward Bioprocessing 4.0. “Adoption of Quality-by-Design (QBD) and Process Analytical Technology (PAT) ...

Visualization of Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS): This diagram illustrates the interaction of a laser beam with a sample surface through a sharp metallic tip. The red laser light excites the ...

TERS gives the vibrational information of a sample with nanometric resolution. Obtaining physico-chemical information with such resolution opens up possibilities to characterize materials at ...

There has been a substantial increase in drug seizures in all major northern European ports, including Rotterdam, Anvers, Dunkerque, and Le Havre. These are now considered one of the main drug ...

A novel Raman technique measures protein–ligand binding at physiologically relevant conditions in real time. Researchers at the Texas Agricultural and Mechanical University (TX, USA) have developed a ...

Microplastics are a growing problem in the world’s oceans, but how do you obtain quick and useful measurements in-situ, and at the depths needed to completely understand distribution, flow, and ocean ...
