Microplastics larger than 20 µm appear to be routinely present in commercially available eye drops, according to research published in Cornea. The investigation employed the use of micro-Fourier ...

With their quick, non-destructive results, handheld Raman spectrometers are changing the way material analysis is done on the go. These portable devices can make it easier to do complicated analysis ...

Experiments show that carbon nanotubes transfer heat inefficiently at small scales, raising concerns for cooling and ...

Subsequent to higher resolution imaging via confocal Raman microscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), laser desorption-ionization mass spectrometry was used to place these regions within ...

Synthetic cannabinoids, a class of new psychoactive substances, have emerged as a significant public health and social ...

Plastic pollution is a significant environmental issue, with microplastics (particles <5 mm) being particularly challenging to detect and quantify due to their small size. This study shows preliminary ...

Explore how in-line Raman and NIR spectroscopy, combined with chemometrics, enables real-time reaction monitoring for better ...

Previously, we reported our first successful development of a Raman spectroscopic prototype in persons with diabetes and described a critical depth for the confocal glucose determination in human skin ...

The success of Raman-Driven Spin Noise Spectroscopy demonstrates that quantum physics is no longer confined to academic laboratories. With RDSNS, Indian scientists have laid the groundwork for quantum ...
