Source Design and the Utility of Multimode Ionization (PDF)
January 1st 2004The author discusses how the physical realm of the atmospheric ionization source -- materials, gas, and heat dynamics -- and manipulating the ionization modes themselves perhaps are the current forefront of technological innovation.
This article is the third installment in a series about a novel spectrofluorometric method that allow for in vivo observation of the division of chlorplast populations in leaves of Arabidopsis thalania.
Processing Techniques for Handling Multiple Spectra (PDF)
November 1st 2003The author discusses several mathematical processing methods for handling, assessing, and studying groups containing multiple spectra. The processing techniques feature standard mathematical tools that are used to study a series of numerical results.
Rays of Hope: Spectroscopy as an Emerging Tool for Cancer Diagnostics and Monitoring (PDF)
October 1st 2003Vibrational and fluorescence spectroscopy, laser light-scattering techniques, and other optics-based approaches are gaining momentum in the quest for early detection and more effective treatment of cancer.
Pharmaceutical Industry Embraces NIR Technology (PDF)
September 1st 2003Near-infrared spectroscopy moves into warehouses to check incoming drug substances, excipients, and packaging materials, and onto the production floor to monitor characteristics such as blend uniformity, moisture content, and dissolution rate.
Validation of Spectrometry Software, Part VI: Designing Performance Qualification Tests (PDF)
July 1st 2003The author discusses how to identify some of the performance qualification tests to apply to spectrometry software, how to write the test procedures and instructions, and how to execute the actual testing.
