SPECTROSCOPY

INDUCTIVELY COUPLED PLASMA-OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY (ICP-OES) The role of ICP-OES instrument is to determine the concentration of certain elements in the sample of interest. The main advantage of ICP-OES over the AAS technique is its multielemental capabilities. Also we can carry out organic samples like lubricating oils and solvents on the same instrument.  Sample can be scanned qualitatively and based on qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis of the sample can also be done.
UV-VIS Spectrophotometer. Model Shimadzu 1800 Analysis of dyes, Optical whitener, Absorption against Wave length scanning (190 nm-900   nm), Enzyme activity, Hexavalent chromium, Formaldehyde etc
Spectrophotometer.
