Abstract :
FTIR synchrotron radiation microspectroscopy is a powerful molecular probe of biological samples at cellular resolution. Here it is discussed how an optimized combination of IR instrumentation (FPA detectors) and SR optical systems could reach the expected advantages of a SR-based system.
