The feasibility of quantifying the soluble solids content of intact apples was investigated by visible and near infrared (vis–NIR) transmittance spectroscopy combined with the least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM) method.

A detailed look at H–D exchange mass spectrometry including the history of the technique, the exchange process itself, and how the current state of the art provides insights into complex protein structures and their dynamics.

Infrared (IR) microscopy includes both conventional microscope systems and more advanced imaging systems, which are used in two ways.

A brief preview of what to expect at this year's Denver X-ray conference, taking place August 5–9 in Westminster, Colorado.

Here, Martin Zanni explains two dimensional (2D) infrared spectroscopy, the role of lasers, and current applications, such as studying the kinetics of protein aggregation in diabetes.
