One way to reduce plastic pollution in the environment is to identify different types of plastic to guarantee efficient waste management. Plastics are one of the most widely utilized products globally ...

Microplastics are increasingly present in the air, soil and water, prompting widespread environmental concern. But how can these tiny particles – ranging from 5 millimeters to 1 micron in size – be ...

Submicron and nanoscale chemical identification of semiconductor materials, particularly organic ones, poses a considerable challenge in the analysis of devices and also in the process control and ...

As the dispersive systems were superseded by the much more powerful FT-IR (Fourier-Transform-Infrared) spectrometers, IR spectroscopy progressed into a widely used analytical tool. An advantage of ...

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy of intact cells results in a fingerprint of their biochemistry in the form of an IR spectrum; this has given rise to the new field of biospectroscopy. This protocol ...
