Software Options
LabSolutions IR incorporates data processing functions such as Advanced ATR correction and
Kubelka-Munk conversion, quantitation functions such as the multi-point calibration curve method
and the CLS method, as well as the spectral searching function as standard features. However, adding
the following optional software products makes it possible to further increase the application range.
LabSolutions IR
Time course software (P/N 206-74558-91)
The time course program is used to collect spectra in regular intervals and creates a
time course dataset used to follow reactions as a function of time. Changes in peak
height and peak area can be used to calculate values related to reaction kinetics.
Time course information is saved and displayed in 3D (bird's eye view) or in a
contour plot. It can be recalculated by modifying parameters.
The scan interval is dependent on resolution, number of scans and mirror speed.
The fastest speed under a 16cm resolution and a mirror speed of 9mm/s is 7
-1
seconds for 1 accumulated scan. Maximum measurement time is 48 hours but
it depends on scan parameters. The time course software includes a 3D
Processing program.
LabSolutions IR
Mapping program (P/N 206-74559-91)
The Mapping software allows one to map absorption information on a sample
surface as a function of position when using the Shimadzu AIM-8800 Infrared
Microscope.
Mapping parameters, such as the mapping range, the scan intervals, and the
background positions, can be set on the composite images. Area mapping, line
mapping and random mapping modes are supported.
In addition to mapping in the conventional transmittance and reflectance modes,
micro-ATR mapping with an optional ATR objective is also available. From the
acquired mapping data, it is possible to extract spectra and to perform
calculations for functional-group mappings for specific peaks. The data can be
displayed as 3D images or contour plots, or in spectral overlay mode.
Mapping program includes a 3D Processing program.
CLASS-Agent connection kit (P/N 206-74557-91)
This is a program to connect LabSolutions IR (File edition) to the CLASS-Agent system.
Spectra collected using LabSolutions IR are managed in an existing CLASS-Agent
database. The database enables data management for the entire recording life
cycle, which consists of the creation (measurement), inspection, approval, storage,
browsing, backup, and disposal of analysis data.
CLASS-Agent Manager and Public Agent are required.
* Only spectra are saved in the CLASS-Agent database. Mapping data, Time course data,
Calibration curve and Quantitation result tables cannot be stored.
