Spectroscopy is the study of absorption and emission of light and other radiation by matter Absorption spectrum is a spectrum containing absorption lines or bands produced when light from a hot source itself producing a continuous spectrum that passes through a cooler gas
hello today I will tell you about what Spectroscopy studies ,definition of absorption spectrum more about the BEER -LAMBERT law and the last one will be about the examples of application of spectroscopy in medicine
BEER LAMBERT LAW SAYS"The concentration of the sample and path length is directly proportional to the absorbance of light "where as mathematically it is expressed as A= £CLA=Absorbance £=Molar absorption coefficient M-1 CM-1C=Molar concentration L=Optical path length
APPLICATIONS OF SPECTROSCOPHY IN MEDICINE :Spectroscopy assists in therapeutic methods (such as photodynamic therapy)by data supply on optical properties governing tissue response :It is a great value in diagnostics as well as which is confirmed by its recent introduction to microbiology :its also a significant tool in pharmaceutical analysis :its also a non destructive approach that needs little or no sample preparation
