Introducing the BLADE Automated Microwave Digestion System for preparation of routine to extreme samples for elemental analysis. BLADE brings speed, simplicity, flexibility, and performance to help labs achieve better quality digests in a fraction of the time of other systems.

Spectroscopy spoke with Raychelle Burks, PhD, of American University about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) issues in analytical chemistry and whether applied or fundamental research is more important to the global economy.

Applied Rigaku Technologies recently launched a new, second-generation NEX CG II EDXRF spectrometer. What makes NEX CG II unique is its advanced Cartesian Geometry optical kernel. We want to briefly discuss the advances in EDXRF technology, and then discuss what this brings to users specifically when they use NEX CG II, a multi-element, Cartesian Geometry indirect excitation EDXRF system. We will also want to talk about applications where NEX CG II excels and why Cartesian Geometry EDXRF is advantageous for their analytical needs.

Atomic absorption (AA) spectroscopy may not be a new analytical technique, but that doesn’t mean it is any less important than other newer tools. Many analytical methods and regulations have "grown up” with AA spectrometry, and it remains a center point of sample analysis at many labs to this day.

Glenn Williams and Thanh Nguyen introduce the NANOHUNTER II Benchtop TXRF/GI-XRF analyzer for ultra-trace elemental analysis with minimal to no sample preparation. Ideal for applications spanning metallo-protein research to environmental assessment and thin-film metrology.
