Chemistry  

is a database containing 1.4 million spectra (IR, NMR, Raman, and UV-Vis). Created by the Informatics Division of Bio-Rad Laboratories, it also provides the molecular structure and properties of each compound. The database can be searched by compound name, molecular formula, and CAS registry number.

Webinar: Mixture Analysis of Spectra

Description: The spectral analysis of mixtures in experimental data is a challenging task. Manual separation of spectral components, even when they are known in advance, is tedious. In this session we demonstrate Bio-Rad's approach to mixture analysis that combines software technology with a large reference datasets. We will identify components of several mixtures to demonstrate the efficacy of this approach.
