Software ESSENTIAL per FTIR
MIDAC AUTOQUANT Software for gas analysis and FT management
ESSENTIAL for FT-MIDAC
- It runs on Microsoft WINDOWS™ XP, is optimized for 32-bit, is multitasking, and is easy to use using the “point and click” system.
- ESSENTIAL is the most complete software for the analytical laboratory because it can acquire, visualize, process and organize data like never before.
- You can easily IMPORT or ACQUIRE data from different analytical instruments (UV-VIS, IR, NMR, DIODE-ARRAY, CHROMATOGRAPHS, etc.) into a single program for standardized data processing, viewing, and organization. The program has a completely open architecture, allowing for complete customization.
- Data Processing includes the largest collection of mathematical algorithms used today such as FFT, Apodizations (about ten), Zero Filling and Polynomials up to the sixth order, Baseline Corrections, Deconvolutions, Interpolations, Derivatives of all orders and degrees, Interactive Subtractions, Smoothing, Integrations, Peak-Statistics (area, heights, FWHH, center of gravity, etc.), Curve Fitting, etc.; representations in T%, R%, Abs, E, Log, etc.; “Main” mathematical functions of Gauss, Lorentz, Log-normal, Voigt, Pearson VI, Savitsky-Golay, KM, Tchebichev, etc.
- It is possible to modify existing algorithms for particular solutions and create specialized Macros using the “Array-Basic” Interpreter language.
MIDAC AUTOQUANT Software for gas analysis and FT management
This software was designed and developed in collaboration with NASA; its purpose is to control the FT Midac; it is dedicated to gas analysis and operates under Microsoft WINDOWS™ XP. Autoquant operates in 32-bit multitasking and is easy to use thanks to the "point and click" method.
The program allows direct online viewing of the infrared spectrum being acquired, the table of compounds to be analyzed with the calculated quantity and related error, and the graphical trend over time of the analyzed substances.
The software allows quantitative analysis, in-line or batch reprocessing of spectra collected with other instruments, including automatic or manual pressure and temperature correction and optional mass emission calculation.
The quantitative analysis is performed based on the exclusive and innovative CLS multivariate calculation algorithm, developed exclusively for MIDAC by NASA.
The algorithm allows for the correction of errors resulting from the deviation of the analysts' response from the Lambert-Beer's law.
The “Piecewise linear correction” type of calibration curve construction allows to minimize calculation errors between low concentration values and high concentration values.
It is possible to IMPORT or ACQUIRE data from various analytical instruments for the preparation of calibration curves.
The open architecture program is customizable and gives the possibility to modify existing algorithms and create specialized macros using the C and Visual Basic languages.
MIDAC-STANDARDS Libraries for AutoQuant
The library contains over 2,500 spectra covering over 165 different gases. Of these, over 100 are compounds included in environmental prevention regulations drawn up by international bodies such as the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and HAPs (Hazardous Air Pollutants).
There is also a large collection of IR libraries and spectra (e.g. semiconductors, solvents, polymers,fluorochemical compounds, organic, inorganic and acidic.
The instrument calibration can be performed with real gases or via software using standards collected according to EPA's and HAPs regulations with different concentrations and at different resolutions (0.5 / 1 / 2 cm-1).
The available spectra can be used for spectral research and converted into different formats for use with other data processing programs.
