Exciting news in the world of FTIR spectroscopy!

Agilent has just released MicroLab 5.8, MicroLab Pharma 5.8, and MicroLab Expert 1.3—the software that powers the Cary 630 FTIR spectrometer and Agilent’s handheld and mobile FTIR systems. MicroLab 5.8, MicroLab Pharma 5.8, and MicroLab Expert 1.3 will be supported on Microsoft’s latest operating system, Windows 11.

MicroLab is an easy-to-use software platform for routine FTIR applications, with picture-guided workflows and color-coded results.
