PinPointer Raman Spectroscopy System from Ocean OpticsPinPointer Raman Spectroscopy System from Ocean Optics
This full-featured Raman spectroscopy system comes in an affordable handheld format. This unit is controlled by a pocket-sized computer and features easy-to-use software for fast point-and-click operation. An optional software add-on provides one-touch identification of unknown substances by immediate comparison of a measured spectrum to the onboard Raman spectral library. Analyze solid, powder or liquid samples while still contained in bags or bottles.
