Easy to use , an efficient equipment with reproducible results
Pharmaceutical technology
We used RAMAN spectroscopy in our lab to map API in final dosage form. The equipment is very easy to use and its results are reproducible.
Review Date: 16 Nov 2021 | Thermo Fisher Scientific
Good results, really useful for an academic institution.
Materials characterisation
This is an easy-to-use benchtop micro Raman, that can be effectively used by undergraduates. Both postgrads and undergraduates can be trained within a 3-hour session to work with the instrument. The ease of switching between lasers is really useful and the capability to measure laser intensity delivered to the sample is particularly useful for peer-reviewed papers. The software is the same platform as the ATR-FT-IR which on the one hand is a good thing. On the other hand, ease of deconvolution is missing, and to get a proper deconvolution different software must be used.

Protein quantification
This is a very nice, compact piece of equipment. It was very easy to use - I was using it confidently myself after only a few minutes. It is very user friendly, both the instrument itself and the operating/analysis software. The best feature is the ease of changing the laser wavelength - literally less than a minute!

- Confocal depth resolution—demonstrated as good as 1.7μm on ideal sample
- Full spectral range of 3500-50cm-1 captured with a single exposure of the CCD avoids stitching artifacts. Extended spectral range to 6,000cm-1 available for 532nm laser
- Supports multiple excitation lasers. 532nm, 633nm, and 780nm
- Automatic fluorescence correction available with all excitation lasers
- Characterization and identification of small particles
- Great for ID of particulate contaminants
- High-resolution depth profiling and subsurface analysis on transparent and semi opaque samples Excellent for characterizing coatings, multi-layer laminates, thin films, inclusions and subsurface defects
- Organic and inorganic samples—the wide spectral range with measurements down to 50cm-1 is of particular advantage for inorganics, which typically have bands at low frequencies
- Molecular morphology characterization—good representation of carbon and silicon molecular backbones provides great differentiation of pharmaceutical and mineral polymorphs as well as differentiation of amorphous and crystalline forms of silicon and different carbon nanomaterials
- Characterization of surface areas and subsurfaces are supported with x-y area maps and x-z maps
- Measurements through glass and plastic packaging—allows measuring directly through evidence bags, injectable ampules, and protective overcoatings
- Remote sampling for samples too large to fit under the microscope, with optional fiber-optic probes
- Configurable GO button on instrument provides for walk-up operation
- All data collection, processing, and reporting steps can be stored so that a user can load a sample under the microscope, push a button, and have a report print out with no interaction with the computer
- Supports surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) measurements
- Lasers, filters, and grating Smart modules all user exchangeable and can be shared with other DXR instruments
