FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AccuScreenRockville, MD. LT Industries has introduced a new Near-InfraRed (NIR) Analyzer called the AccuScreen™ System. Designed for the analysis of granular solids, the new analyzer incorporates optics-to-sample distance sensing circuitry for greatly enhanced sample-to-sample reproducibility. The two-module system includes a 1,000-wavelength scanning NIR polychromator and a separate sample sensing chamber. In use, the operator inserts a conventional sample plate such as a Petri dish containing powdery material. The dish loads into the chamber automatically. Once in place, the sensing circuitry establishes an ideal distance between the sample surface and the NIR radiation source. Because the sample is undisturbed, artifacts due to probe compaction or unfavorable optical positioning are eliminated. Calibration sample data are also free of these variables, meaning that chemometric models developed on the AccuScreen system are unusually rugged. The pharmaceutical instrument focus group Cadrai llc (Wilmington, DE) had this to say about the AccuScreen system, " The pharmaceutical industry continually looks for analytical tools that will reduce both operating steps and potential error sources. NIR is a valuable spectral tool that has already received regulatory acceptance in the industry. The AccuScreen instrument meets the needs of analysts that are faced with hundreds of discrete samples and short deadlines." The development staff at LT Industries add the perspective that test
samples for the AccuScreen system do not require solvation, dilution or
physical treatment prior to analysis, nor is there an added burden of
reagent waste disposal.
