Chemical Imaging and Mapping

Chemical Imaging and Mapping

We specialize in chemical location and composition imaging and mapping services using advanced analytical techniques and state-of-the-art instrumentation to deliver precise and actionable insights. Our expertise spans Raman-based chemical imaging, near-infrared imaging, and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS), enabling us to visually map and identify the spatial distribution of chemical species in complex samples. These techniques are particularly useful for analyzing structured drug products, such as layered tablets or microspheres, allowing us to evaluate homogeneity, proximity of components, particle size, and other critical physical properties. By collecting detailed spectral data across a two-dimensional area, we transform complex chemical information into visual representations, significantly aiding in product development, failure analysis, and patent litigation support. Whether your needs involve contamination analysis, uniformity studies, or forensic evaluations, we leverage cutting-edge tools and our deep scientific expertise to help you uncover answers and optimize your processes.
