Recommendations for handling bitumen prior to FTIR spectroscopy

High Resolution Ftir Spectroscopy

In FT-ICLAS, the aim is to improve the absorption detection sensitivity. The experiment combines IntraCavity Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (ICLAS) with FTIR spectroscopy. ICLAS is a well known instrumental technique in which a sample is inserted in a cell placed inside a broadband, multimode laser cavity. The laser is operating in pulsed mode and intracavity absorption rises as the laser wave b...

FTIR-Spectroscopy of multistranded coiled coil proteins.

Coiled coils of different order were investigated using infrared (IR) spectroscopy. Recently, we demonstrated that dimeric coiled coils display unique vibrational spectra with at least three separable bands instead of only one band of a classical alpha-helix in the amide I region. This was attributed to a distortion of the helical structure by the supercoil bending, giving rise to bands that ar...

FTIR Spectroscopy of Magnesium Tetraborate Solution

Supersaturated aqueous solution of magnesium tetraborate (MgB4Ü7 -ЭНгО), its acidified solu­ tions with azeotropic hydrochloric acid, and its diluted solutions with water have been recorded by differential FTIR spectra. The differential FTIR spectra of borate in solutions axe obtained by sub­ tracting FTIR spectrum of water from that of the magnesium borate aqueous solutions. The results showed...
