Data and Workflow Management in the Lab
1 Feb 2019Labs can take advantage of a variety of different levels of data capture. Each level offers a certain amount of security, error mitigation, and time savings not afforded by a primarily handwritten, paper-based system. Whether you choose to add a printer, connect to a PC, or provide full integration with a workflow and data management system such as LabX®, capturing data at the point of origin is the foundation of any effort to enhance the efficient use of data.

Atomic Absorption / Emission SpectroscopyAtomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) — also called optical emission spectroscopy (OES) — are used to detect the elemental constituents in samples. Both techniques involve the atomization of a sample. Atomic absorption spectrometers may use a flame or furnace to create an atomic vapor of the sample before irradiation with spectral light. Optical emission spectrometers may use a flame, inductively coupled plasma (ICP), microwave plasma (MP) or spark arcs to atomize and excite the sample. At higher excitation energies, electrons can be emitted instead of photons, which can be useful for samples that can’t be atomized and for surface analysis. Explore electron spectroscopy equipment such as Auger spectrometers and photoelectron spectrometers for surface elemental analysis of samples.
