High Performance Raman Microscopy Made Easy

The Horiba Jobin Yvon Raman team have introduced the new LabRAM Aramis a major advance in Raman automation. The system is the latest addition to the award winning LabRAM range of Raman microscopes and through its high level of system automation is designed to extend access to the Raman technique within the analytical laboratory. It offers an automated yet fully flexible analytical Raman toolbox with full Class (I) laser safety as standard and intelligent automated laser switching. Computer controlled selection of up to four different gratings and four different notch filters enables the system to be operated by non-expert users for even the most demanding of applications.Rapid automated switching between the various excitation lasers and notch filters enables different wavelengths to be selected for optimum results with every sample, such as, a 532nm laser for SERS and Resonance enhanced assays, or a 785nm laser for fluorescence rejection.The LabRAM Aramis incorporates the leading edge technology of the true confocal Raman microscope to provide the ultimate in spatial and depth discrimination. This core technology enables far more sensitive and better defined Raman mapped imaging to be obtained in applications such as pharmaceutical formulation development, forensic analysis, and biological screening.The bench footprint of the system is impressively small even when multiple laser sources are incorporated and as such the instrument ideally matches the laboratory environment. The system is also available with UV and NIR extensions.Horiba Jobin Yvon is proud that the LabRAM family is now the most extensive series of Raman microscopes available. The Range includes the standard LabRAM, the LabRAM HR for high reso-lution, the LabRAM INV for inverted microscopy, the LabRAM IR for combined Raman/FTIR and now the LabRAM Aramis for complete automation.
