How do I Use Inline Raman in Downstream Oil & Gas Applications?
Inline Raman spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique that has found numerous applications in the downstream oil and gas industry. One of the key advantages of Raman spectroscopy is its ability to perform non-destructive analysis, making it an ideal technique for real-time monitoring of...
Why You Should Consider Buying a Factory Calibrated Raman System
Raman spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique used in a wide range of applications, including energy, industrial fermentation, and biotechnology. A Raman system measures the scattered light from a sample and provides information about its chemical composition and structure. However,...
7 Benefits and Advantages of Using Raman in Cultivated Meat Production
Cultivated meat, also known as lab-grown meat or cell-based meat, is a rapidly growing industry that aims to provide a sustainable and ethical alternative to traditional animal agriculture. While the technology for producing cultivated meat has advanced significantly in recent years, there is...
Identifying Gasoline Fuel Properties with Raman
Gasoline fuel properties such as API, benzene, RON and MON must be measured accurately and precisely to enable refineries to expedite quality assurance and bring gasoline to market quickly. To do this, refinery labs must analyze many hundred samples of gasoline per day. In a medium size...
In the Market for a New Raman System? Here is What You Should Consider
What Technical Requirements Should My Raman System Meet? Laser wavelength The most common wavelengths for Raman systems are 532nm, 785nm, and 1064nm. A 785nm wavelength system will achieve the right balance between Raman signal strength and reduced fluorescence. Software interface...
In-Line Raman Analysis of Fatty Acid Features in Salmon Fillets
The Norwegian Institute for Food, Fisheries and Aquaculture Research (Nofima) used MarqMetrix’s All-In-One system and Proximal BallProbe to monitor fatty acids in salmon fillets. Summary Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are omega-3 fatty acids found in cold-water fish...
App Note: Why the Energy industry should count Raman as an affordable, data-rich complement to existing analytical technology
The Energy industry has relied on analytical equipment such as knock engines, vapor pressure analyzers, and gas chromatography to ensure product quality. A solid-state Raman system like the MarqMetrix All-In-One can speed up analysis, offer flexibility by measuring liquids and gases, and...
Five Things You Didn’t Know About the MarqMetrix BallProbe®
MarqMetrix TouchRaman® technology allows you to simply touch the end of your BallProbe to the sample and take a Raman measurement. BallProbe’s short focal length can accurately analyze liquids, solids, slurries, powders, and heterogeneous mixtures, while eliminating user to user variation.
Inline, Online, Atline, or Offline: How Solid-State Raman Analyzers can be Adapted for Any Point of Need
Updated March 14, 2023. Inline, online, atline, and offline: these are the four primary classes of measurement used in process analysis. Modern process analytical technology (PAT) needs to be reliable and accurate. But perhaps most importantly, PAT needs to be adaptable enough to analyze the...
Using Process Raman and Data Science to Gain Actionable Information for Glucose Monitoring
Biopharmaceutical production requires a near-constant stream of compositional information to run efficiently. Solid-state process Raman is a proven technology for collecting that information while greatly reducing maintenance and operating costs compared to traditional physical sampling-based...
