Description
About High-Throughput FT-IR Analysis
The HTS-XT is a microplate reader extension for high-throughput screening in infrared (IR) spectroscopy The module itself can be connected to different Bruker Optics FTIR spectrometers. Depending on its configuration it can be used for measurements in the mid infrared to the near infrared and even the VIS range.
Easy Software for Microplate Analysis
The HTS-XT is controlled by the OPUS/LAB software that allows the automatic measurement and evaluation of spectra from large sample numbers. For the quantitative determination even of several analytes in complex samples modern multivariate methods like PLS (Partial Least Squares) are used.
Applications
The general benefit of the IR spectroscopy comes with the molecular information present in each IR spectrum. Whereas other high-throughput methods require the use of specific marker systems to allow the analysis of a certain parameter, the infrared microplate analysis provides an entire range of structural and molecular information on the substances of interest in a single measurement!
Use it for:
- Soil analysis (classify soil types and quantify parameters)
- Polymerization kinetics of varnish films and multicomponent glues
- Characterization of cells (producers/non-producers)
- Identification and type determination of diamonds
