Visible Microspectrophotometry

Color Analysis

Visible microspectrophotometry (MSP) is used to measure the visible spectrum of a material in either transmitted or reflected light, or the emission of light from a sample in the case of fluorescence or cathodoluminescence.

In forensic science, MSP is most commonly used to measure and compare the color of fibers.  Using a microscope attachment, color can be measured and compared on regions of fibers that approach the wavelengths of visible light.

Micro-Colorimetry

Using micrometer scale path lengths, solution concentrations can be calibrated and measured on micro-liter scale samples.
