nice explanation. Thanks for sharing
Plzz mam make lectures on HPLC and gas chromatography
Unfortunately, we don't own either of those instruments, so we won't be doing those techniques.
can you do the same in clay samples
We have done some clay samples in our XRDs. Collecting data for clay is rather simple. However, clay can contain several completely separate phases which overlay and make phase identification (not included in this video) rather complex. There are some procedures out there to help isolate certain phases. Google searching "Clay separations for XRD" can give you some good starting resources.
IR is an instrument, not a machine
This was very helpful, thank you.
Thank you for the wonderful tutorial! I have a question about the transmission measurement with slits by integrating sphere. You mentioned put the slit in the sample location, but do you need to put slit in the reference beam location as well? I'm somewhat confused about where to put slit for the reference beam and for actual sample measurement.
hi i am looking for a video on adapters , also if you can have a vid on calibrating Deflectometer .
Can you clarify - what do you mean by "adapters?" And for the deflectometer, are you asking about an extensometer (such as for tension/ compression tests) or a deflectometer (such as for flexture tests? Depending on the model of your adapters or deflectometer, I can try to assist.
HELLO, I NEED THE USE MANUAL FOR THE PASHER D2 EQUIPMENT, I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR ANSWER.
Hello , Thanks for this video. I want to measurement at 800-1000nm R but monochromator changes at 890 nm ( max value is 900nm) so I get very noisy measurements between 890-1000nm. because of the slit width pass. what should I do ?
We have had that same issue repeatedly on our instrument as well. In the past, depending on the age of the W bulb, changing that lamp can sometimes help smooth things in that area. I believe you can also experiment with the gain and response settings in the detector settings on the schematic page of the method setup. I don't have much experience with how to change those settings, but it has been recommended to us by Perkin Elmer. Since the detector and the monochromator change at the same time, adjusting the relevant detector can help smooth that noise as well
Do you have any resources on how to measure a sample with a BaSO4 baseline in reflection mode?
how much cost it?
You can find our hourly rates for using the equipment at mcl.mse.utah.edu.
Can you post a video that installation of 3 point bend test from scratch please
Are you interested in setting up a method, or installing the fixture? We use the www.instron.com/en/products/testing-accessories/flexure-fixtures/three-point-bend-test-fixtures?region=Global%20Site fixture in our lab; is that the same one you're interested in learning about?
Using the same logic as in 36:40 for the KBr methods, I should use the background as the reference KBr pellet to subtract this KBr info from all next sample, right?

Hi I own a Varian Scimitar 800, and have been searching for the software for months, no matter where I look, I cannot seem to find its specific software. However in one of your previous videos, i found that you were using varian resolutions pro. I wanted to ask wether a copy of this software could be made. I desperately need it, and i am willing to pay for it aswell. Email me wether it is possible please, this is my final hope. (My email can be found on my channels about page.) Thankyou
Hi, could share you software? on my university we have the same model, the computer crashes and Perkin Elmer doesnt have anymore the software.
Hi Ricardo, I'm sorry to hear that your computer crashed. We purchased our (Windows 10) software in 2020 from Perkin Elmer. I know they don't directly support some aspects of the Lambda 950 anymore, but they still make WinLab for their other Lambda series (850 and 1050). You should be able to reach out to them to purchase a new license for your machine. Since we paid for our license, I don't feel comfortable sharing it outside of our lab. Best of luck!
Before analyzing the sample, did you calibrate the instrument in terms of peak position?
Thank you for your video please make video on how to use different gases..
@@materialscharacterization4168 That's great news...and Thank you very much for your kind reply...that will indeed will help me
Super helpful training vid, thankyou so much! I was plunged into the deep end with overlap shear testing last year, and even now i dont feel confident making methods. This tutorial makes me want to jump right in and test test test! Thankyou, much love from the UK x
Thank you for the kind words! Best of luck with your work!
you need to adjust the content
Thank you, ma'am... I need to see small reasons which have been mentioned for each step of the DSC test.
Thanks you so much such valuable demo... Buddy... Take care of yourself.... Have a good day
I need a training video about fatigue test instron 8801. Can any one provide me
So informative and applicable
Great video!!. Explains very well the features, start up and operation of the Instron.
Enjoyed every minute of your video, nice and well done
Do you have any guide for the finding peaks options? Great video, thanks
What do you mean by repeating calibration if I will run my sample under air instead of nitrogen
I use the extract same machine for scanning my sample and your video is extremely informative and helpful. Thank you so much.
Hi! Thanks for the useful and informative tutorial. Could you please help me with my task? I have to measure absorbance spectrum of my sample (it is powder). How correct is it to choose "A" (absorbance) instead of "%R" as an ordinate mode in "Data Collection" window for reflectivity measurement?
@@user-jq2kg4hl6o Without being involved in your analysis and knowing the parameters of your material and the machine you're using, I am unable to comment on which method is more correct. You would probably do best to find a materials-trained person in your research facility to discuss the results with them.
@@materialscharacterization4168 Thanks for the answer.
Very helpful video. My department has the newer version.
Extremely helpful. Thanks for sharing.
I find this very helpful!
Nice job. I think it would make more sense to recollect the background if you decided to change the aperture for some reason. Also, does it matter that your background is 32 scans while the sample is 64 scans?
Thanks for your question! The purpose of running multiple scans to co-add is to reduce noise and increase the signal-to-noise ratio. In some cases where the results are being observed by a governing body (for example the FDA), they might require that the background and the samples have the same number of scans to co-add. However, we have found that it makes little to no functional difference in the research conducted in our lab.
Please make a tutorial on measurement with URA.
Hi Mohammad - that tutorial is in the works. We're hoping to have additional material for all of our machines sometime in 2021.
@@pattabhidyta7991 So sorry I didn't see this until now. I believe the Lambda 950 is meant to handle ~6 OD, which means that 1 photon for every 1,000,000 photons gets through the sample. If the slice of apple was thin enough to allow at least that much light through, it could be analyzed. Since the transmittance of light through an entire apple is 0, that would not be possible. In that case, a sort of reflectance measurement would be the best option.
Thank you for sharing valueable information and tutorial. I am beginner to to use this instrument and have following questions: 1. Is there any way to measure absorption with this instrument? 2. I was reading article from internet to extract information from R and T data. Is there any other way? Thanks alot for your followup. Best Regards
Hi, so sorry we didn't see this comment sooner! Absorption can be measured using reflectance and transmittance, as you mentioned. Many times, users will make the assumption that one of those is nonexistent (such as with a very thick sample, there is little or no T). In that case, R and A would be inverse of one another. The same is true if you assume no R (A and T would be inverse). Those are the most common ways one could find exact absorbance with this machine.
