Confocal Raman Microscopy
or Micro-Spectroscopy is becoming
an invaluable tool within Biophysics, Biology
and Biochemistry as it can provide more
detailed information on the structural composition
on cells and biological systems than other
more commonly used techniques, such as infra-red
absorption spectroscopy.
PI/Acton has over forty years of experience
providing high performance CCDs and spectrographs,
two of the key components of a high-end
Raman system, to the global research community.
We have used our vast experience within
this market to create a series of confocal
Raman spectrometers that bear the hallmarks
of quality and high performance. The
MonoVista series of Confocal Raman systems
integrates PI/Acton’s single-stage spectrographs
with our extensive range of high-performance
CCDs and Olympus Upright BX51 and
Olympus Inverted IX71 microscopes
to provide a dedicated and flexible research
tool. A high-stability base plate ensures
long-term stability and repeatable measurements,
while our extensive range of detectors ensures
that the system has the best sensitivity
and detection limits for your particular
application. The MonoVista series of confocal
raman systems are suitable for a wide range
of life-science applications, as confocal
Raman spectroscopy can be used as a structural
probe for any type of cell or biochemical
reaction. There is a choice of integrated
lasers or the systems can be integrated
with existing laser systems and a six position
filter wheel gives maximum flexibility.
The modular design also allows easy reconfiguration
for a variety of experiments.
