Reliable analytical instruments like spectrometers are essential for advancing health care research and diagnostics. However, budgetary constraints often require cost-effectiveness without ...

The evidence indicates that non-invasive monitoring (near-infrared spectroscopy; NIRS) of oxygen in brain tissue likely does not reduce death rates or short-term brain problems for very premature ...

Near infrared optical coherence tomography (NIR OCT) is a non-contact, noninvasive imaging technique that uses near infrared light to generate cross-sectional images from the light scattered back by a ...

This paper explores the differences and similarities between Raman and infrared spectroscopy in regard to unknown material identification and reaction monitoring. While these techniques share ...

Enhancing prefrontal cortex (PFC) cognitive functions requires identifying suitable exercises that increase cerebral blood flow. A recent study using functional near-infrared spectroscopy found that ...

Infrared vibrational spectroscopy could enable the production of high-resolution maps of molecules inside live cells and cell organelles. A new study from Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) and Humboldt ...

Formulation scientists are behind the conversion of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) into stable, bioavailable, and commercially viable dosage forms, rarely a simple process. Image Credit: ...
