Summary
Confocal Raman microscopy offers a powerful way to explore materials. By using a laser beam to scan samples, images can be generated where each pixel represents specific chemical information. This can provide new insights to the structure of food and other biological materials without the need to modify these. This can for instance be used in the design of more sustainable food for the future.
