10 Mar 2010 The XploRA™ Raman microscope has been launched with the ground breaking SWIFT confocal Raman imaging. It enables this compact analytical Raman spectrometer to produce faster detailed Raman images. XploRA is a new concept in Raman microscopy, bringing Raman chemical identification directly to your microscope. High resolution light microscopy is effectively coupled to uncompromised Raman spectroscopy in one package. The system provides the performance of HORIBA Scientific Raman microscopes at a surprising price. The new SWIFT functionality expands the possibilities of this groundbreaking instrument still further providing faster & higher definition images than one would expect from an “analytical” Raman microscope. The XploRA is easy to use and has a minimal bench footprint, so it is the ideal smart microscope for every R&D, QA/QC and forensic lab providing rapid compound identification & chemical imaging, with no sample preparation transporting you into a new dimension of microscopy. |
