One of the most popular techniques for material identification is single bounce ATR spectroscopy. However, in some cases, the specular reflectance sampling technique may still be necessary. Much like ...

Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy is an excellent tool for analyzing biofluids. A biological fingerprint can be extracted from the sample as an IR spectrum ...

Researchers have developed a low-cost method for the analysis of interfacial molecules by combining ATR-IR with precise gap-control and multi-variate data analysis. A novel spectroscopic method ...

The human eye can only see a small part of the much broader spectrum of electromagnetic radiation (Figure 1). On the high-energy side of the visible spectrum lies the ultraviolet (UV) region, while on ...

Histopathology is the gold standard in cancer diagnosis. However, attenuated total reflectance (ATR)-Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy has shown diagnostic potential in other settings.

A recent study in Scientific Reports presents a method for identifying liver tumor subtypes during surgery using fiber-optic attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy combined with ...

Why is Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy Used? One of the main techniques for evaluating the optical properties of materials is optical absorption spectroscopy, or UV-vis spectroscopy. Most absorption ...
