    FIGURE 1. Confocal measurements of fossil feathers embedded in epoxy and amber show keratin, but no carotenoid (yellow) contributions in their Raman spectra.1 The measurements were done with a BaySpec Nomadic confocal microscope (bottom) at 1064 nm, one of the microscope's three Raman excitation wavelengths (the other two are 532 and 785 nm).
    When paired with a high-resolution microscope, Raman spectroscopy opens a world of knowledge for scientists, doctors, and industrial researchers.

    At the heart of Shimadzu’s IG-1000, which took a Pittcon Editors’ Choice award, is a comb electrode. It is designed into a disposable cartridge that holds the sample. When the IG-1000 applies AC power to the electrode, the resulting dielectrophoresis effect attracts particles in the sample. When the power stops, the “induced grating”–that is, the grating made up of particles–is released. Smaller particles move away more quickly, and larger particles travel more slowly, enabling measurement.
