Horiba Scientific has launched the Xplora Raman microscope with Swift confocal Raman image operation.
Combining microscopy and chemical analysis, the Xplora retains the full functionality of a microscope coupled with high-performance Raman spectroscopy.
The Swift functionality is said to expand the possibilities of the instrument further, providing faster and higher-definition images than usually expected from an 'analytical' Raman microscope.
The Xplora is compact and rugged in design and is said to be easy to use and transport due to its small footprint.
This makes it an ideal smart microscope for research and development, quality assurance/quality control and forensic laboratories.
Users can explore the true nature of their sample with rapid compound identification and chemical imaging, with no sample preparation and analysis in normal ambient conditions.
Intuitive operation through fully compliant software modules including the Guided Operation wizard ensures ease of use.
