  Absorbance spectroscopy is a molecular spectroscopy method that uses the wavelength-dependent absorption characteristics of materials to identify and quantify specific substances. Many molecules absorb ultraviolet or visible light emitted from a broadband light source. The absorbance is related to the concentration of the materials in the sample such that stronger absorbance means higher concentration. There are many different approaches for measuring absorption spectra. The most common one is to point a generated beam of light at a sample and detect the intensity of the radiation that goes through it. The energy that is then transmitted is used to calculate

  In this post, we are focusing on your Raman system, by looking further into Raman spectroscopy, which is a molecular spectroscopic technique providing information about molecular vibrations that can be used for sample identification and quantitation. Raman spectroscopy has some very unique advantages and is used in many different fields where a non-destructive, microscopic, chemical analysis and imaging is required. This is especially ideal for the pharmaceutical industry where this technique is used for incoming raw material inspection as well as for final quality inspection of tablets. You can find more information about Raman and the different products Ibsen

  Detectors for HPLC is the focus of this post, where we will get around HPLC and our FREEDOM UV-VIS spectrometer, which is a suitable UV detector for HPLC. We often hear that instrument manufacturers are constantly faced with the challenge to develop new instruments that offer the end-user: [list_item]Higher productivity through faster measurements[/list_item] [list_item]More compact instruments[/list_item] [list_item]Lower power consumption[/list_item] [list_item]Better thermal stability and ruggedness for out-of-the lab applications[/list_item]   At Ibsen we believe that we can help solve some of these issues - if not all of them, with detectors for HPLC, e.g our FREEDOM UV-VIS. But first, what
