FTIR.
Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometry for molecular fingerprinting, compound identification, and structural analysis of organic and inorganic materials.
Identify mineral composition, organic matter content, and clay mineralogy in soil samples using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Non-destructive mid-IR analysis provides rapid characterisation of soil health indicators critical for Nepal's agricultural research and land-use planning.
Pharmaceutical Raw Material ID
Verifying the identity of incoming raw materials and excipients against reference spectra per pharmacopoeial methods.
Polymer & Plastics Analysis
Identifying polymer types, additives, and contaminants in plastic materials and packaging.
Environmental Sample Analysis
Characterising organic pollutants, microplastics, and chemical residues in environmental samples.
Food Adulteration Detection
Screening food products for adulteration and verifying ingredient authenticity using spectral comparison.
- Spectral Range (cm⁻¹)
- Resolution
- Signal-to-Noise Ratio
- Sampling Accessories (ATR, DRIFTS)
- Interferometer Type
