Technology

Optimized optical system for high-precision NIR measurements

Before optimization:
Signal variation caused by the meniscus effect
After optimization:
Improved reproducibility and stabilized spectra

In well-plate measurements, the meniscus formed on the liquid surface can distort the optical path, leading to signal fluctuation, reduced accuracy, and poor reproducibility.

To address this challenge, MRX N1 applies an optimized optical design with carefully controlled illumination angles and signal collection geometry.
This significantly minimizes meniscus-related effects and ensures stable, consistent spectra across all wells.

As a result, MRX N1 delivers highly reliable quantitative analysis, excellent reproducibility, and high-quality NIR data even under demanding well-plate conditions.

Chemometrics-Based Analysis

NIR Data
Validation (Chemometrics)

Unlike UV-Vis, NIR spectra cannot be analyzed using a single wavelength due to overlapping absorption bands.

MRX N1 overcomes this by combining full-spectrum NIR data with advanced chemometric modeling (PLS/OPLS), enabling accurate and reliable quantification.

By leveraging multivariate analysis, it delivers strong correlation with reference values and ensures high prediction accuracy.

Modeling

MRX N1 provides advanced chemometric modeling tools to convert complex NIR spectra into accurate and reliable quantitative results.

The system supports a complete modeling workflow, including data preprocessing, model development, validation, and evaluation within a single integrated platform.

Users can apply various preprocessing methods such as normalization, smoothing, and derivative transformations to optimize spectral data prior to modeling.

Built-in multivariate analysis techniques, including PLS and OPLS, enable precise prediction of target components, even in complex mixtures.

Model performance can be easily evaluated through validation plots, residual analysis, and statistical metrics, ensuring high accuracy and robustness.
