Shortens Experimental Process

Xenon ash Functionality for calibrating the number of photoreaction photons eliminates the need
light source for chemical actinometers.

Measuring is Easy

The all-in-one Lightway includes a software function that guides the necessary
operating steps to the user and all the elements required for monitoring photoreaction
processes in real time, which makes it easy to measure photons.

Measures Photon Count Accurately

Eliminates individual differences resulting from how chemical actinometers are made.
Using an LED irradiation light source* ensures consistent measurements for many hours.

Analytical Intelligence is a new concept for analytical instruments offered by Shimadzu Corporation.
It consists of systems and software that simulate expert operators automatically determining whether or
not conditions and results are good or bad, providing feedback to users, and solving common problems.
It increases data reliability by compensating for any differences between users in their instrument
knowledge or experience.

This photoreaction evaluation system was developed by Shimadzu Corporation, under the
supervision of Professor Osamu Ishitani and Associate Professor Yusuke Tamaki of the Department
of Chemistry, Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Tokyo Institute of Technology.
