How to Measure ATR Spectra Directly in Solution with Fiber Optic Probes

Moving Beyond the Bench: In-Line FTIR Monitoring with ATR Probes For decades, Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) has been a standard technique for FTIR spectroscopy. However, most users are restricted to standard ATR inserts or benchtop accessories. While effective for static lab samples, these setups introduce a critical bottleneck: the sample must be extracted from the […]

Fiber Optic ATR-Probes (Shaft-in-shaft design)

Main features

  • Fiber assembly is easy detachable.
  • No need to retract the whole probe out of the fermenter, just pull the fiber assembly out of the operational shaft and store it separately.
  • Sealing the operational shaft is possible for the sterilization, cleaning, deactivation or any other treatment.
