Researchers 3D printed a mini quadrupole mass filter, a key component of a mass spectrometer, that performs as well as some commercial-grade devices. It can be fabricated in hours for a few dollars ...

The composition of complex mixtures of molecules can be determined using NMR spectroscopy. Each of the thin glass tubes is filled with an extract of sea water that contains a few milligrams of ...

Researchers are designing new ways to make spectrometers that are ultra-small but still very powerful, to be used for anything from detecting disease to observing stars in distant galaxies.

…while Vanderbilt develops laser-based method for “liquid biopsies”. Smartphone records the Raman spectrum of a target substance. Identification and detection of drugs, chemicals and biological ...

This is a close-up view of the “spectrometer-on-a-chip” technology that could dramatically reduce the size of spectrometers in the future. (Credit: NASA Goddard/Chris Gunn) The Composite Infrared ...

[Project 326] wanted to know exactly what gas was in some glass tubes. The answer, of course, is to use a spectrometer, but that’s an expensive piece of gear, right? Not really. Sure, these cheap ...

Waters WAT recently introduced Xevo MRT, a benchtop mass spectrometer (MS) for large population and epidemiology-type studies. The new Xevo MRT MS combines multi-reflecting time-of-flight (MRT) and ...

A spectrometer is an instrument that is often employed to examine, identify, and precisely gauge electromagnetic radiation emanating from a substance. This aids in identifying the elemental ...
