Summary
The qCSI consortium will establish two new open-access label-free chemical imaging instruments (fast multiplex coherent Raman and near-field infrared) and integrate them with an advanced spectral data processing and analysis platform. The imaging infrastructure will be used for various types of applications in the material and life sciences. The chemical targets can be contained in a variety of samples, including cells, tissues, pharmaceuticals, nanomaterials and foods. The qCSI infrastructure will open up completely new avenues of research for advanced chemical imaging in Finland.
