Challenging the Limit of Detection of Compact Spectrometers
9 November 2017
This article is brought to you by:
Traditional thinking is that compact spectrometers do not offer the sensitivity or speed needed to compete with benchtop fluorimeters for many fluorescence measurements. We explain how limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) are defined and measured, and challenge that preconception by demonstrating picomolar LOD for fluorescein with a compact, cost-effective spectrometer capable of capturing 50 ms scans with ease.

Monitoring Water Quality with Fluorescence Spectroscopy
4 September 2017
This article is brought to you by:
Fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to characterise natural organic matter (NOM) in water. Excitation-Emission maps reveal the nature and concentration of NOM in river water and can be used as a routine analysis technique in water treatment facilities.
