What technologies are included in the Gemini Raman and FTIR Chemical Analyzer with LowDoseID for chemical and explosives identification? Product FAQ

Answer

The Gemini Raman and FTIR Chemical Analyzer with LowDoseID enables operators to quickly switch between Raman and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic analysis techniques. Raman and FTIR spectroscopy are highly specific and reliable identification methods, each with strengths and limitations. By integrating both into a single handheld analyzer, operators harness the power of each technology while enabling a broader range of chemical identification.

How portable is the Gemini Raman and FTIR Chemical Analyzer with LowDoseID? Product FAQ

Answer

Weighing less than 2 kilograms, the Gemini Raman and FTIR Chemical Analyzer with LowDoseID is easily transported downrange or into the hazard zone, reducing the logistical burden of carrying two separate technologies and increasing efficiency with confirmatory identification capability when and where it is needed. By providing sophisticated technology in such a compact, lightweight device, one no longer needs to sacrifice capability for weight, giving an unparalleled advantage in the field.

What is the technology used in the TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyzer? Product FAQ

Answer

The TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyzer uses lab-proven Raman spectroscopy. Raman is a vibrational spectroscopy technique where a single wavelength laser is focused on a sample. The laser excites the bonds of a molecule, which generates measurable scattered light to identify the material in question. Raman is a highly effective method for reliable identification of an unknown substance based on its underlying chemistry.

Raman spectroscopy has been extensively deployed for use in homeland security applications, largely due to the high chemical specificity, with each chemical substance having a unique spectral fingerprint.

How does the Acclaro Contaminant Identification feature work on my NanoDrop One Spectrophotometer? Product FAQ

Answer

Our Acclaro Contaminant Identification feature uses a chemometric approach to analyze the chemical components present in a sample. This type of analysis has been used previously in Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and near-infrared systems (e.g. Thermo Scientific Nicolet spectrometers). The Acclaro algorithms rely on a reference library of spectra. These algorithms are then applied to the sample spectrum, and the software can make predictions about a sample's contaminants by using chemometric mathematical principles.

How does the ZOOM IPG Runner System work? Product FAQ

Answer

The ZOOM IPGRunner System provides a convenient and quick way to perform isoelectric focusing (IEF) of proteins in a vertical mini-gel format using immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips for two- dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis.

The major components of the ZOOM IPGRunner System are:

*ZOOM IPGRunner Mini-Cell (Cat. No. ZM0001)
*ZOOM IPGRunner Cassettes (1 pack of 10 cassettes, Cat. No. ZM0003)
*ZOOM Strips (12 ZOOM Strips, pH 3–10 NL, Cat. No. ZM0011)

Using the ZOOM Strips, proteins are separated based on their isoelectric point (pI). The proteins in the sample can be further separated in the second dimension, based on their molecular weight, by placing the IPG Strips into the IPG well of a NuPAGE Bis-Tris ZOOM gel or Tris-Glycine ZOOM gel. The proteins separated in the second dimension can be visualized as spots by the use of SimplyBlue SafeStain or silver staining, or blotted onto membranes. Protein spots can be also excised from the gel or the membranes to be further analyzed by mass spectrometry or chemical microsequencing to facilitate protein identification.

Where in the pharmaceutical manufacturing process is NIR spectroscopy used? Product FAQ

Answer

Handheld NIR verification improves supply chain risk management by enabling pharmaceutical manufacturers to meet global GMP requirements, improve inventory management, and reduce raw material supply risks. Applications Include:

- Incoming raw material identification
- Quality control and assurance
- Counterfeit product screening
- At-Line Process Analytical Technology (PAT)
- Process troubleshooting
- Quantitative analysis

With NIR spectroscopy, the manufacturer can achieve rapid, multi-component analysis without chemical or disposable costs, determine the quality of incoming raw materials at intake, and monitor and control processes, which help to maximize production and increase profitability.
