Gerstel and Spark Holland Enter Agreement
Spark Holland B.V. (VE Emmen, Netherlands) and Gerstel GmbH & Co. KG (M?lheim an der Ruhr, Germany) have entered into an agreement based on Spark's patented dried blood spot (DBS) technology.
Spark Holland B.V. (VE Emmen, Netherlands) and Gerstel GmbH & Co. KG (Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany) have entered into an agreement based on Spark’s patented dried blood spot (DBS) technology. The agreement includes the use of Spark’s FTD technology and the Spark DBS autosampler, allowing Gerstel to develop and market fully integrated automated DBS systems.
Spark Holland is a supplier of front-end ultra high performance liquid chromatography and on-line solid phase extraction (SPE) instruments, specializing in the field of autosampling and on-line SPE and, more recently, on-line DBS analysis. Gerstel is an international company focused on developing and producing automated systems and solutions for chemical analysis, providing accessories or complete systems with integrated software control. Gerstel’s main focus is on automated sample preparation for gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The company has been using Spark’s SPE technology in its customer-focused solutions for more than two years.
Getting accurate IR spectra on monolayer of molecules
April 18th 2024Creating uniform and repeatable monolayers is incredibly important for both scientific pursuits as well as the manufacturing of products in semiconductor, biotechnology, and. other industries. However, measuring monolayers and functionalized surfaces directly is. difficult, and many rely on a variety of characterization techniques that when used together can provide some degree of confidence. By combining non-contact atomic force microscopy (AFM) and IR spectroscopy, IR PiFM provides sensitive and accurate analysis of sub-monolayer of molecules without the concern of tip-sample cross contamination. Dr. Sung Park, Molecular Vista, joined Spectroscopy to provide insights on how IR PiFM can acquire IR signature of monolayer films due to its unique implementation.
