Analytical and Bioanalytical Techniques

Spectroscopic Techniques

Spectroscopic techniques analyze the interaction between light and matter to reveal information about chemical compositions and structures. Key methods include infrared spectroscopy, which identifies molecular vibrations; nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, which provides detailed information about atomic environments; and mass spectrometry, which determines molecular weight and structure. These techniques are pivotal in fields like chemistry, biology, and materials science for both qualitative and quantitative analysis.
