I made three publications using the instrument. I is great for research work.

 

Average Rating 3.3

Application Area:

Detecting silver nanoparticles prepared using essential oils

At the beginning, the results were very good with high resolution. The there were too much noisy in the sample spectra. It is not easy to understand the software or make changes in the settings. I talked to the person on charge who installed the instrument, then someone else came and tried to fix but the problem was not solved. Another try was to solve the problem online using software to make my lab visible, but I refused.

Definitely recommend.

 

Average Rating 3.7

Application Area:

Gas Analysis

This FTIR will do everything that you need and more. It is very thorough, but the software can be a bit cumbersome for advance quantitation. It is my understanding that software upgrades are coming soon.

Convenient to use for quick material comparison and QC qualification.

 

Average Rating 3.3

Application Area:

Organic monomers and polymers

It is not very hard to use generally speaking. It does require regular maintenance and care more than other equipment.

Review Date: 24 Mar 2021 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

Great reproducibility.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Analysis of bacteria and nanoparticles

It is easy to use, and no need for any sample preparation for ATR-FTIR. However, it has not a library for assignments.
