  • Apparatus for effecting analysis with rapid analyte chemical separation and subsequent detection
    Patent number: 8932524
    Abstract: A stationary medium is employed both to separate chemicals from a sample solution and also to generate surface-enhanced Raman scattering, so that spectral analysis of the separated analyte chemical can be performed. Applied driving force causes the sample to flow into the stationary medium and to distribute therethrough, thereby causing rapid separation of the analyte chemical, and surface-enhanced Raman scattered radiation is quickly detected, at a plurality of locations along a flow path defined by the stationary medium, for ultimate analysis.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 2, 2011
    Date of Patent: January 13, 2015
    Assignee: Real-Time Analyzers, Inc.
    Inventors: Stuart Farquharson, Paul Maksymiuk, Chetan S. Shende

  • Apparatus for effecting chemical separation and plural-point SERS detection using metal-doped sol-gels
    Patent number: 7462492
    Abstract: Sol-gel beds and deposits are utilized for SERS analysis of liquid analytes. Measurements are made at multiple points along the length of a column or channel to increase, very significantly, the speed of analysis, and use of the same medium to both separate the chemicals and also for SERS greatly reduces the complexity of such apparatus and enhances the efficiency of the method.
