Plastic products that are commercially available contain polymers such as polypropylene and polyethylene as their main components along with several trace components that are added for improving ...

Histopathology is the gold standard in cancer diagnosis. However, attenuated total reflectance (ATR)-Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy has shown diagnostic potential in other settings.

A minimally invasive screening for ulcerative colitis, a debilitating gastrointestinal tract disorder, using emerging infrared technology could be a rapid and cost-effective method for detecting ...

Haematoxylin and Eosin stained photomicrographs of (a) normal breast tissue section with lobules containing dark blue-stained acini nuclei (black arrow), separated by denser collagen fibers, compared ...

Anton Paar has announced the launch of AP Spectroscopy Suite 1.5, the latest version of its spectral analysis software, ...

In today’s industrial quality control, attenuated total reflection (ATR) is used to measure most FTIR spectra because minimal sample preparation is required in this approach. Samples such as liquids, ...

Bio-Rad claims to offer researchers access to one of the world's largest spectral reference collections containing over 1.3 million spectra of pure organic and commercial compounds. Researchers rely ...

Metaplastic breast carcinoma, a rare entity (<1% of breast neoplasms), lacks comprehensive spectroscopic characterization. This study aimed to address this gap by providing a qualitative and ...

Dental enamel is a highly mineralized tissue that is mainly composed of a ‘non-stoichiometric’ form of hydroxyapatite (HAp). During enamel erosion by acidic beverages, acidic active agents in ...

To track the success of cells being used in a bioprocess, scientists seek ways to monitor their health and productivity. With process analytical technology (PAT), for example, a bioprocessor might ...
