A look at how high-powered ultrafast lasers are moving toward widespread use in spectroscopy and in industrial settings and the developments that are driving these changes

Martin T. Zanni of the University of Wisconsin-Madison is now applying coherent 2D infrared spectroscopy to research on diabetes and cataracts.

We live in a new world where users must specify what they want their analytical instruments to do. This discussion will help you figure out how to make sure you get what you need.

Karen Faulds of the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow has been investigating the application of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy to identify and quantify disease pathogens by detecting their DNA.

Although recent steel coating methods have demonstrated improvements in corrosion resistance, they can prove expensive and complicated. In this study, XPS analysis was used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of steel treated with an alternative technique.

As biopharmaceuticals continue to increase in sophistication, how can their discovery and development be managed to reduce uncertainties and expedite the process?

Measuring moisture at high or trace amounts in is an important parameter of many manufacturing processes including commercial food production, pharmaceutical, and chemical manufacturing or other industrialized fabrication setting.
