ParticleScout – Raman-based Particle Analysis

Description

ParticleScout is an advanced particle analysis tool for witec360 Raman microscopes that finds, classifies and identifies microparticles over even large sample areas.

User-defined categorization of particles by shape and size offers access to wide-ranging properties, and the results of the measurement are then presented in a report that provides a comprehensive description of the sample.

ParticleScout features the most flexible and useful sample survey capabilities available.
  • White-light Microscopy: Bright field/dark field, transmission/reflection.
  • Image Stitching: Scans of many sample areas can be combined into one measurement for a large-area overview of widely distributed particles.
  • Focus Stacking: This unique capability dramatically increases the depth of focus for sharp and defined particle imaging.
  • Integration time optimisation – reduces measurement time and minimizes the effects of fluorescence.
  • Vignetting correction – ensures uniform brightness throughout the image plane.
  • Smart zoom – displays particle information dynamically depending on viewed area.
  • Sample area targeting – allows the selection of multiple regions of interest for each investigation.
  • Dark-field, bright-field, epifluorescence and transmission sample illumination – provides the best option for each type of particle.
  • Round sample wedge sectioning – allows the selection of an area for data acquisition, typically on a filter, that can be extrapolated to represent the whole.
  • Smart separation of particles – differentiates materials in densely packed, heterogeneous samples.
  • • Quantitative report formatting – presents data using table, bar graph histogram and pie chart templates for ease and clarity.
