Technology to Significantly Increase Spectrophotometer Sensitivity
Add-on Device that Increases Spectrophotometer Sensitivity by up to 100-fold
This technology increases the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) up to 100-fold using a novel feature in the detector circuitry to significantly reduce the noise level while maintaining a constant signal.
This novel, patented device that can be internally or externally integrated into current spectrophotometer instruments to increase sensitivity by 100-fold, allowing for measurements of substances at much lower concentrations than is possible with current instrumentation. Spectrophotometer sensitivity is determined by signal to noise ratio (S/N), which should be as large as possible. This technology increases the S/N using a novel feature in the detector circuitry to significantly reduce the nosie level while maintaining a constant signal.
Benefits:
- Allows for testing on samples of much lower concentration, which brings spectrophotometry into new markets not possible with current instrumentation (trace analysis)
- Inexpensive to implement into current spectrophotometers (high profit margins)
Applications:
- UV-Vis
- FTIR
- Atomic Absorption
- HPLC
- Circular Dischroism
- Capillary ElectrophoresisTwo Issued Patents
Devolopment Status: Ready to implement with minimal testing in most types of spectrophotometer inststruments
Issued US Patents:
- #8,766,191
- #8,830,474
