Applications

The SENTERRA II allows measuring Raman images and combines the obtained spatially resolved molecular information with high-quality microscopic images of the sample. The analysis is performed contactless and without the need of sample preparation. Being suitable to be used for the detection, discrimination and identification of organic and inorganic materials the SENTERRA II has a wide range of applications.

Failure analysis of pharma products, electronics and plastics: identification of particles, inclusions and inhomogeneity

Imaging of the distribution of components in complex materials: multi-layer laminats, varnish, pharmaceutical tables

Surfaces and interfaces: examination of composition and homogeneity

Life Science: study of the molecular composition of cells and tissue

Materials Science: characterization of new materials (silicon, carbon)

Forensics: identification of trace evidence and drugs

Art: determination of used materials
