Analysis of mRNA Poly-A Sequence Variants by High-Resolution LC–MS

A new deep-learning framework that was recently developed improves the accuracy of near-infrared spectroscopy for non-destructively measuring internal quality traits.

At the upcoming 2026 SciX Conference, Ji-Xin Cheng at Boston University will be recognized with the Charles Mann Award for Applied Raman Spectroscopy. Leading up to the conference, Cheng sat down with Spectroscopy to talk about the advancements being made in confocal Raman microscopy.

Raman microspectroscopy can be used to characterize polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Pavi Sundararajan, a postdoctoral fellow at NASA Ames Research Center, explains how.

The launch of SpecAcademy is set to solve some of the current education gaps in analytical spectroscopy. We preview an upcoming roundtable discussion with some of SpecAcademy’s instructors here.

The following articles are the most accessed digital object identifier (DOI) manuscripts for Spectroscopy and LCGC International during the month of August 2026. Ten articles are individually ranked here by DOI page views.

This interactive e-book celebrates National Forensic Science Week by highlighting the vital role of spectroscopy in modern criminal investigations and emphasizing how technological innovation is making forensic analysis faster, safer, and more reliable for courtroom testimony.

An upcoming talk at SciX 2026 Conference will describe a new multimodal platform using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) elemental mapping that can detect nanoparticles and microplastics in biological tissue.
