Identifying a Wider Range of Materials

Handheld device first to feature 1064nm wavelength excitation

One of the standout new technologies featured at this year’s Pittcon conference and exhibition in Philadelphia was Rigaku Raman Technologies’ FirstGuard™ handheld Raman analyzer.

The system, the latest addition to the FirstGuard series, is the first handheld device equipped with 1064nm wavelength excitation and it also features an updated architecture and several new software upgrades.

While 785nm wavelength excitation products can only identify approximately 70 percent of encountered raw materials in pharmaceuticals and consumer goods manufacturing due to chronic fluorescence interference, the FirstGuard 1064 can reliably identify those same materials and also identify many more materials that 785nm excitation cannot, the company said.

“Rigaku Raman is committed to making the world a safer place by leveraging the power of science and technology to deliver innovative products such as our 1064nm FirstGuard analyzer,” said Bree Allen, general manager at Rigaku Raman. “When dealing with safety-critical applications, our customers can’t afford to be 70 percent accurate in their on-site RMID process, having to rely on validation of 30 percent of their materials by other time-consuming techniques. The FirstGuard can quickly and simply analyze many more of these raw materials which is why it is becoming the world’s number one choice for a Raman handheld analyzer”

The 1064nm technology also enables analysis through many dark glasses and plastics—something that is difficult to impossible with 785nm spectrometers.

“We look forward to bringing the FirstGuard’s new capabilities to our customers and are committed to leading the industry with the type of innovation that can contribute to the enhancement of humanity,” Allen added.

Larger Samples, Faster Digestion

New sample prep system designed for labs needing quick turnaround

CEM Corporation released its latest acid digestion system, the Discover SP-D 80, at Pittcon 2013 in Philadelphia in March. The system allows users to perform acid digestion for trace metals analysis in as little as ten minutes, including cool down.

"The key is fast turnaround on a single sample,” said CEM president and CEO Michael J. Collins at CEM’s press conference at their Pittcon booth, adding the new instrument is especially suited to laboratories that need immediate turnaround.

The system handles larger sample volumes of 1-2 grams and features full pressure and temperature control of every sample. It is also capable of temperatures up to 260°C and can accommodate a variety of different samples including pharmaceutical, food, plastics, oils, organics, inorganics, metals, and US EPA Methods 3015, 3051, and 3052.

That means the SP-D 80 handles about 95 percent of the types of metals analysis out there, Collins explained, adding the system can also do both sequential and simultaneous sample prep, which is why it can handle many different types of samples.

The system also features individual sample programming so that samples with different parameters or methodologies can be run in any sequence, with vessels available in sets of six or 12.

An optional, automated 24-place sample deck allows the system to run unattended overnight and the compact system can be placed on a benchtop or in a fume hood for added safety and durability.

“We think we’re offering labs the opportunity of doing microwave sample prep in the best way,” Collins said.
