Multipurpose specimen holder for the microscopic analysis of fibres, films, and difficult shaped samples is designed to be easily attached to the stage of most types of microscope
This outstanding collection with total 29,685 high-quality ATR-FTIR spectra is subdivided in tailored databases meeting a wide range of application requirements including polymers, biochemicals, food, cosmetic, flavours and fragrances, and many other industry-specific categories.
All spectra were collected of samples of highest purity produced by fine chemical manufacturers in Japan and Aldrich Chemical - therefore, the spectra are of important, chemically significant compounds.
In accordance with user applications the databases are available as a full collection and also in subsets, such as databases of polymers, additives, biochemicals, food, cosmetics, flavours and fragrances, forensics, etc This classifications in subcategories meet the needs of the practicing spectrocopist and make the databases ideal for investigative analysis or quality control applications.
The libraries were produced with a 2cm-1 data resolution and a spectral range of 4000-400cm-1 and 4000 to 650cm-1, respectively.
All data was collected with 16 bit ordinate precision.
Naturally, all databases are compatible with the majority of the common spectra formats.
During the exhibition days of Analytica 2004 in Munich ST Japan-Europe offers to all visitors a free library search and interpretation service for spectra of unknown samples.
