Equipment
Nicolet 6700 FTIR & Agilent GC 6850
Gas chromatograph Agilent 6850 interfaced to FTIR spectrometer Nicolet 6700 for GC-IR measurements (termostated capillary cell with optical path length 200 mm).
- multireflex and single reflex ATR attachment
- diffuse reflectance attachment
- accessory for the measurement of temperature dependences
Renishaw inVia Qontor
The Renishaw inVia Qontor Raman confocal spectrometer is equipped with a Leica direct and inverted microscope and five excitation lasers for measurements from the UV to the NIR region (325 nm, 532 nm, 633 nm, 785 nm and 1064 nm) with two CCD and InGaAs detectors for a spectral range of 200 up to 1700 nm. Each laser is equipped with a polarization set for measuring polarized Raman spectra. The Raman spectrometer includes additional accessories for sample analysis such as a temperature cell (temperature dependence measurement in the range of 5-95 °C), a set for measuring macro samples, an electrochemical cell and an incubator for measuring living cells under a controlled atmosphere.
Jasco J-815
CD Spectropolarimeter Jasco J-815(JASCO Corporation, Japan) measures differences in the absorption of left-handed polarized light versus right-handed polarized light that arise due to structural asymmetry. The absence of regular structure results in zero CD intensity, while an ordered structure results in a spectrum which can contain both positive and negative signals.
- Peltier element allowing temperature dependent measurements (5-95 °C)
- stopped flow attachment (Biologic) for kinetics measurement
- permanent magnet (1 T) allowing to measure magnetic circular dichroism
Jasco J-1500
CD Spectropolarimeter Jasco J-815 (JASCO Corporation, Japan) allows studying absorption spectra and circular and linear dichroism spectra in the UV-vis spectral region (185–800 nm). The spectrometer is equipped with an attachment for temperature measurement in the range of 5–95 °C (Peltier type temperature control system PTC-517). The spectrometer makes it possible to study fluorescence spectra using a fluorescence emission monochromator (FMO-522) and a photomultiplier FDT-538. The Jasco stopped flow system with two pumps makes it possible to study reaction kinetics both through absorption, CD, LD and eventually fluorescence.
