Process Spectroscopy Offers Potential in Detecting and Monitoring of Novel Coronavirus (Covid-19)
The commercial application of process spectroscopy has developed over the years to facilitate many different applications in numerous fields. The spectroscopic instrumentation required for many of these applications are typically sensitive to high frequencies, requiring fast measurement capabilities. Engineers and scientists have developed new techniques to improve upon the measurement speed of the existing instruments. Some of these improvements have resulted in better quality and less power consumption. Process spectroscopy can be used as a tool for detection and monitoring of Coronavirus (COVID-19). In Germany, from 3 January 2020 to 4:20pm CEST, 4 May 2021, there have been 3,433,516 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with 83,591 deaths, as reported to the World Health Organization. In August 2020, Advanced Nano Technologies, a provider of materials and surface applications based on nanotechnology, in collaboration with Starna Scientific and Trinity College Schools of Chemistry and En
