Infrared Spectroscopy News
Synchrotron FT-IR microspectroscopy has been used to study the side effects of typical tooth whitening treatments, based on oxidation, compared to a new treatment developed by the authors through reduction.
PerkinElmer has announced a partnership with P1 Fuels to develop and test fully renewable fuels to be used in the upcoming series of the FIA World Rally Championship.
Process Insights has acquired Guided Wave, which will join Process Insights’ existing broad portfolio of brands and technologies for process analytics, monitoring and control.
A new algorithm allows real-time reconstruction of images that combine optical spectral and magnetic resonance imaging data.
A proof-of-concept FT-IR-based saliva COVID-19 testing workflow has investigated the pathophysiological response to a COVID-19 infection through ATR-FT-IR spectroscopy.
Researchers from the University of Warsaw have built the first quantum processor in Poland and are putting it to use in spectroscopy. They’ve demonstrated how quantum information processing can efficiently provide information on matter hidden in light.
As the nanostructures in optical sensing chips get ever smaller, it becomes increasingly difficult to get molecules onto the device. A new chip using surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy may be the answer.
Synchrotron light is being used with FT-IR imaging to investigate the role of myelin in brain ageing.
fNIRS can determine impairment from cannabis intoxication and could be used as a “breathalyser” on drivers.
A research group at Eindhoven University of Technology has developed a new NIR sensor that is easy to make, comparable in size to sensors in smartphones and ready for immediate use in industrial process monitoring and agriculture.
KPM Analytics has acquired Bruins Instruments, a manufacturer of high-resolution near infrared reflectance and transmission analysers.
The fusion reflectance and transmission NIR spectra can improve predictions of the three main components of rice flour.
Quantum mechanically entangled light particles allow a glimpse into previously invisible wavelength ranges, thus bringing about new possibilities for imaging techniques, microscopy and spectroscopy.
