Bio-Rad's spectral databases, which include the Sadtler collections, are used worldwide in the verification, classification, and identification of chemical substances across multiple areas of research
Bio-Rad Laboratories announces the release of seven new high-quality infrared databases.
Applications include pharmaceutical, forensic, environmental, materials sciences, polymers, and many others.
"When it comes to infrared, Bio-Rad provides the widest range of software and databases, so users can choose solutions that make the most sense for the way they work," said Marie Scandone, database product manager, Bio-Rad Informatics.
"By providing our customers even more application choices with the addition of these new databases, Bio-Rad continues its commitment to offer high-quality spectral data collections that address the needs of the research community".
Bio-Rad's Sadtler databases for spectroscopy have become industry standards in both commercial and academic laboratories worldwide, offering a unique blend of spectral data and state-of-the-art database building, management, search, analysis, prediction, and reporting tools.
The spectral collection contains over 1.3 million spectra and includes IR, NMR, MS, Raman, NIR, UV-Vis data covering pure compounds and a broad range of commercial compounds.
The seven newest databases are:.
Pharmaceutical excipients (882 spectra).
Biochemicals (590 spectra).
Pollutants (IR vapour phase) (910 spectra).
Flavours and fragrances (IR vapour phase) (496 spectra).
Protective materials (772 spectra).
Acrylates and methacrylates (478 spectra).
Steroids, androgens, progestins, and oestrogens (305 spectra).
