Researchers from the University of Cambridge and GlitterinTech, a startup founded by the same research group, have unveiled a ...

A mass spectrometer is a complicated and expensive piece of equipment -- so complicated and so expensive, in fact, that most undergraduate chemistry students never get a chance to use one. Now ...

For decades, bulky spectrometers have been the main tools for understanding how things are made of chemicals (a thing called composition). Spectrometers are a type of lab equipment that uses prisms or ...

A new AI-powered chip from UC Davis can analyze light and chemicals using a device tiny enough to fit almost anywhere. By combining smart silicon sensors with machine learning, it achieves lab-style ...

At $1 million, many schools cannot afford the latest spectrometry equipment to help students conduct experiments such as determining the composition of a polymer, detecting the presence of cocaine in ...

Bruker Optics announces the launch of the MOBILE-IR II – a portable, battery-powered Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer that delivers the high spectral performance of a laboratory ...

A spectrometer is a pretty common lab instrument, useful for determining the absorbance of a sample across a spectrum of light. The standard design is simple; a prism or diffraction grating to break ...

Reliable analytical instruments like spectrometers are essential for advancing health care research and diagnostics. However, budgetary constraints often require cost-effectiveness without ...

Chemical cross-linking (XL) is widely used to investigate protein–protein interactions (PPIs), including transient or low abundance subcomplexes in mass spectrometry workflows. However, identifying ...

Using a mass spectrometer allows scientists to weigh the molecules of an unknown material, which can then be matched to the lab’s database. “We just hold a wood sliver with tweezers and let a ...
