Product news

CRAIC Technologies, the leading innovator of UV-visible-NIR microspectroscopy solutions for science and industry, announced Windows™ 8 compatibility of its MINERVA microspectrometer control and spectral analysis software.

Scientists and engineers using MINERVA running on Windows™ 8 will immediately notice a more fluid response, with Window 8’s newly enhanced stability and advanced memory management. Windows™ 8 will further improve the usability of CRAIC's MINERVA microspectrometer software with such features a quick resizing of windows, easier to see icons and speedy access to often used documents and spectra. Windows™ Search gives engineers and scientists even more power as a fast search engine to locate and quickly analyze data. And best of all, Windows™ 8 is designed to more efficiently use resources allowing for even better operation of CRAIC microspectrophotometers.

"Windows™ 8 is a momentous enhancement for CRAIC Technologies customers" states Dr. Paul Martin, President of CRAIC Technologies. "All CRAIC microspectrophotometer customers using our MINERVA instrument software on Windows™ 8 will find this new version of Windows™ a much more rewarding experience. With dramatically improved speed, responsiveness and reliability of the operating system, CRAIC customers will experience the benefits of this new operating system immediately."

Fluorescence SpectroscopyFluorometers and spectrofluorometers (also called fluorescence spectrometers) are used to measure the intensity and wavelength of fluorescent light emitted from a sample after excitation by illumination. Spectrofluorometers utilize monochromators to select the desired wavelengths, whereas filter fluorometers employ a set of filters. Spectrofluorometers for measuring steady-state fluorescence and lifetime fluorescence (or time-resolved fluorescence) are available, as well as fluorescence microscopes and microplate readers.

The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics.

Data software can be used for math and stats, technical graphing and image analysis. In addition, software is available for specific data analysis of electrophoresis, densitometry, ELISA and DNA sequencing.Data MiningData mining is an important process for extracting information, patterns and trends from data. Data mining software, databases, reference materials and storage packages are available to process lab data.
