Mi and Si “intelligent” atomic absorption (AA) spectrometers
The benefits of the new Mi and Si “intelligent” atomic absorption (AA) spectrometers for use in high-throughput elemental analysis laboratories are outlined in this 8-page brochure. It explains in detail the principles of operation and the unique capabilities of the instruments, which incorporate intelligent Spectrometer Qualification (iSQ) to automatically test and confirm the device’s hardware performance.

Spectral Libraries
This catalog provides quick access to large and comprehensive collections of FT-IR and Raman spectral libraries, including the most common chemicals found in the “Aldrich Handbook of Fine Chemicals” and the “Sigma Biochemical Condensed Phase Library.” Several industry- and application-specific compounds related to petroleum products, foods and fragrances, as well as forensics, are also included. Concurrent with the release of this catalog is a newly revised format for the ftirsearch.com and ramansearch.com websites, which offer instant, pay-as-you-go access to a searchable collection of more than 71,000 FT-IR and almost 16,000 Raman spectra.
