This webinar will examine some of these tools and show practical processes for data-critical labs.
Material verification technologies from Thermo Scientific
FTIR spectroscopy is an ideal analytical tool for both QC analysis to verify if materials meet specification, and analytical investigations to troubleshoot failures when they do occur. The utility of infrared for these purposes arises from the simplicity of sample analysis and data acquisition, coupled with the information-rich spectra that it provides. Thanks to its compact design and ruggedness, FTIR instrumentation can be located in the analytical laboratory or near the production line. With its low cost, speed, and ease of analysis, FTIR is a method of choice for applications such as chemicals, polymers and plastics and food.

UV-Visible spectroscopy is one of the most common techniques for testing a variety of materials. It is routinely used for quantitative and semi-quantitative determination of different analytes including conjugated organic compounds, ions in aqueous solutions, and biological macromolecules. Because of its flexibility and simplicity, UV-Visible spectroscopy is relied upon to test a large number of parameters important for Quality Control (QC).
 | GENESYS 30 Visible Spectrophotometer Delivering outstanding accuracy and stability at an entry level price, the GENESYS 30 spectrophotometer offers a bright, color display with simple controls, on-board method storage, and the option to save data to a memory stick or print it to an attached printer accessory. Technicians of all levels can easily obtain reliable, accurate results to confirm quality or inform next steps. |
