Applications of ALPHA II
Pharmaceuticals
Early on, Bruker decided to design their software with the needs of pharmaceutical companies in mind. Therefore, OPUS and OPUS Touch follow the ALCOA+ principle and are 100% compliant with all major pharmacopoeias and of course 21 CFR part 11. Whether locally or on a server, the ALPHA II ensures data integrity and security.
Polymers
The ALPHA II is intensively used in the polymer industry. The ALPHA II inspects incoming raw materials, test finished products and investigate coated surfaces. One of the biggest user benefits, are Bruker’s dedicated, up-to-date and ready-to-use methods to identify and characterize recently introduced polymers and fillers
Teaching
The ALPHA II is the most modern approach to FT-IR spectroscopy. Its optional touch-PC gets students interested and quickly involved with science. Its rugged, maintenance-free lets it withstand even the toughest chemistry teaching labs.
Quantifications
Several accessories and toolkits are available to turn the ALPHA II into a quantification power house. Check water in oil, API concentrations, the amount of deuterium oxide in H2O or even the residual ammonia in parquet flooring. Multiple quantification methods facilitate reporting and documentation of results.
Forensic Drug Analysis
The TICTAC spectral library for drug analysis contains traditional as well as newly introduced drugs and illegal substances. Because the ALPHA can be quickly moved between operation sites, it is a great tool for governmental institutions like police, border control, or those deal that with illegal substances.
Food & Beverage
As a reliable analyzer for wine, must and juices, the ALPHA II has found widespread use across the world. It analyzes sugar, alcohol and other contents in an efficient, fast and affordable manner. It is also used in FOA (foreign object analysis), identifying unknown contaminations in processed or packaged foods.
