Portable Raman Microscopes
BioTools Inc.Request Info
BioTools’ new family of portable Raman microscopes bridges the gap between microscopy and spectroscopy.
The Mobile μRaman (pictured) is designed for examining particles, liquids, contaminants and fibers, while the μ-BioRaman is intended for protein analysis.
When coupled with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates or capillaries, the instruments can collect a spectrum in 10 s, requiring only four to eight spectra to generate a well-defined Raman signature.
Both systems offer multiple sample handling modalities (microscope slide, cuvette, vial or syringe), a fast-scanning piezoelectric stage for Raman mapping and an optional battery pack for fieldwork.
Both models are available in Extended Range (ER), covering 200 to 3200 cm-1 with a spectral resolution of 8 cm-1 and High Resolution (HR), covering 200 to 2000 cm-1, with a spectral resolution of 4 cm-1.
Smaller than a portable sewing machine, each instrument is suited for use in industry and pharma, research and forensics, art and archeology, doctors’ offices and infusion clinics and food and water safety testing.
