Changing Everything You Know About Liquids Analysis by FTIR
Low level components or impurities in liquid samples are typically not amenable to analysis by attenuated total reflectance (ATR) methods due to pathlength constraints, and thus analysts turn to classical transmission measurements for these types of samples. Yet, ATR is far easier to use than the cumbersome transmission cells. New advances in the analysis of liquids by FTIR spectroscopy can provide a far broader range of quantitative capability for liquid samples, while retaining the ease of use and speed of analysis afforded by ATR.

Basic Principles of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

The analytical use of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) has its origins back to 1963 with the study of Mrs. Debras and Guedon. Since then, the technology associated with LIBS has evolved (lasers, spectrometers, detectors, data analysis). However despite considerable advantages that only laser-induced plasmas can provide, the delicacy to control and model their basic fundamentals leads to a slower integration of LIBS in the analytical field than other established plasma based techniques such as GD- or ICP-OES.

A review of the basic principles of LIBS will be given and discussed to better understand the technique, the reasons of its slower integration but nevertheless appreciate and explore the unique possibilities that only LIBS can provide to the analytical community.
