Spectrum search & analysis

Start with a spectrum. Search the library. Build a better-supported answer.

Upload an FTIR spectrum to search the reference library and inspect the evidence. For grouped studies, routine QC or formulation work, dedicated tools are available when you need them.

Professional FTIR services

When the job needs a dedicated analytical deliverable.

Use Online Requirement when you need a literature-backed peak assignment, a custom comparison, complex-sample analysis or another manual FTIR service.

Academic Peak Assignment, customized two-spectrum comparison, complex sample analysis and other IR support

Choose the service, upload the relevant evidence and describe the question to be answered. Academic Peak Assignment is the dedicated literature-backed peak-attribution service for known compositions.

Specialized workflows

Choose the workflow that matches the decision your users are trying to make.

The same FTIR spectrum means different things in a research study, an incoming-material check, a formulation project, a training case or a connected laboratory platform. Each workflow keeps the context and evidence needed for that job.

Research batch FTIR comparison and PCA view
Research & Academia

Explain how experimental groups differ

For treatment, concentration, formulation or time-series studies: retain replicates, quantify group patterns and connect separation back to the bands that changed — with outputs you can carry into figures and further statistics.

QC FTIR reference and incoming sample comparison
Quality Control & Compliance

Check a new lot against material you already qualified

For incoming materials, supplier changes and deviations: compare against qualified historical batches, show abnormal regions and retain a dated evidence record for QA review and follow-up.

Multi-stage formulation FTIR analysis project
R&D & Formulation

Follow what changed as the formulation evolves

For iterative R&D: keep controls, concentration changes, ingredient substitutions and process stages together so spectral changes remain tied to the experiment that produced them.

Instructor-to-learner FTIR training workflow
Training & Education

Turn FTIR training into hands-on analytical practice

For university, instrument or internal laboratory training: let learners inspect real spectra, commit their reasoning and then reveal the reference evidence while instructors retain reusable cases and progress review.

Laboratory record connected to structured FTIR analysis through API and MCP
Laboratory Platforms

Add FTIR analysis without sending customers out of your platform

For LIMS, ELN, instrument and laboratory-software teams: submit spectra from the existing record and return structured analysis, evidence and lineage through REST API or MCP.

Explore Laboratory Platforms
Published FTIR figure digitized, reviewed and compared with an experiment
Literature & Research Platforms

Turn published FTIR figures into reusable evidence

For researchers and literature platforms: recover numerical curves from figures, keep DOI and extraction provenance attached, and compare the published spectrum with experimental data instead of relying on visual inspection.

Instrument access

Use FTIR.fun from your instrument computer or another connected device.

Open FTIR.fun in a browser, use the FTIR Launcher on supported instrument computers, use the Gateway where general internet access is restricted, or connect your software through API and MCP.

FTIR result with conclusion, spectrum and supporting evidence
Evidence-backed result

The result comes first. The evidence stays available.

Reference retrieval is central to FTIR.fun. The result can also retain characteristic peaks, candidate comparisons, literature support, conflicts and recommended confirmation where they are useful.
