Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. launched its new Thermo Scientific DXR Raman microscope. The instrument is designed specifically to help non-specialist users achieve rapid sampling and analysis of particles, down to one-micron spatial resolution. The DXR Raman microscope is equipped with fully integrated, pre-aligned components for fast and easy field installation and configuration. This flexible, innovative system utilizes several patented features to automate and simplify the steps an expert would go through to optimize a measurement. Interchangeable SMART components require no operator adjustment and ensure automated system configuration. Patented auto alignment and auto calibration ensure reliable results. Furthermore, the microscope utilizes the Thermo Scientific ValPro complete system validation package, allowing for compliance with cGMP and FDA regulatory requirements.
The DXR Raman microscope is designed to make the Raman technique accessible to a much wider audience by replacing manual adjustments with system intelligence and automation. The DXR Raman microscope brings the power of Raman microscopy to academic studies, for characterization of geological specimens.
