SPEX CertiPrep is proud to celebrate 60 years of support to the scientific community in 2014.

Hamamatsu Corporation is the North American subsidiary of Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. (Japan), a leading manufacturer of devices for the generation and measurement of infrared, visible, and ultraviolet light.

Even though no current electronics is fast enough to measure femtosecond lasers, an estimation of the pulse duration, peak wavelength, and relative intensity is possible.

In this study, regression and classification chemometrical algorithms were combined to achieve effective discrimination of pure body fluids from their binary mixtures.

EMD Millipore is the life science division of Merck KGaA of Germany, supporting research, development, and production of biotech and pharmaceutical drug therapies.

Handheld Raman analyzers have found widespread use in the pharmaceutical industry for excipients and raw materials verification, and in first responder/security applications. Most portable Raman units utilize lasers operating at 785 nm because of the relatively good signal strength at this wavelength.

Oriel Instruments, a Newport Corporation brand, was founded in 1965 and delevoped a reputation as an innovative supplier of products for the making and measuring of light.

When OEM System manufacturers around the world require precision, well-regulated high voltage power, one name most often comes to mind: Spellman High Voltage.

CEM Corporation is a leading global company specializing in scientific solutions for critical laboratory applications.

EDAX is a leading provider of innovative materials characterization systems encompassing energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), wavelength dispersive spectrometry (WDS), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), and micro X-ray fluorescence (XRF). EDAX products include standalone tools for EDS, EBSD, and WDS, integrated tools for EDS/EBSD, EDS/WDS, and EDS/EBSD/WDS, and a free-standing micro-XRF bench-top elemental analyzer providing small and micro-spot X-ray analysis and mapping.

Waters Corporation, the premium brand in the analytical instruments industry since 1958, creates business advantages for laboratory-dependent organizations by delivering practical and sustainable scientific innovation to enable significant advancements in such areas as: healthcare delivery, environmental management, food safety, chemical materials analysis, and water quality worldwide.

Since its founding in 1986, Moxtek has become a leading supplier of advanced nano-optical and X-ray components used in display electronics, imaging, and analytical instrumentation.

Harrick Scientific Products specializes in designing and manufacturing instruments for optical spectroscopy.

Since its inception in 1951, Rigaku has been at the forefront of analytical and industrial instrumentation technology.
