This month, our EXPO journey continues with a spotlight on life sciences. 🧬
In healthcare, speed and precision are crucial. Our technology turns hours of lab work into insights in seconds – no complex preparation, no harmful radiation. From safer osteoporosis diagnostics, to real-time cancer monitoring, to keeping medicines pure, it changes the way we protect health.
At EXPO we will demonstrate how advanced chemical analysis is moving beyond the lab and into everyday medical and pharmaceutical practice.
🤝 And we’re not doing it alone: together with i-Lab (JP), we’re building a bridge between Czech and Japanese innovation, showing how collaboration accelerates progress in science and healthcare.
📍 Czech National Pavilion, September 16 – 15:00

Fast. ✔️ Direct. ✔️ Contactless. ✔️
Zinc is a key indicator in nitrocellulose formulations, whether as a stabilizer or a residual impurity. But analyzing such reactive materials has always been a challenge.
With Sci-Trace, we measured zinc directly in nitrocellulose, no sample prep, no chemicals, no contact. We achieved results consistent with AAS, but up to 40× faster.🚀
A powerful example of how LIBS is changing the way we approach sensitive materials.

🔍 What exactly are we eating and how can we know for sure?
This month at EXPO 2025, AtomTrace takes a closer look at the elemental composition of what we grow, process, and consume.
📅 Join us on July 22 for our thematic presentation:
“The Science Behind What You Eat – From Nutrients to Toxins”
We'll discuss real-world applications of LIBS in the food and feed industries:
🥣 from nutrient mapping in fertilizers
⚠️to contaminant detection in food,
🌾and protein-level analysis in grain-based products.
📩 If you're attending the EXPO and would like to see the demo live, contact us at [email protected] for tickets or more info.

What if analyzing glass didn’t have to be slow and destructive? 🧪⏳
In our recently published article, we explore how LIBS can transform glass analysis — making it significantly faster, more precise, and much less invasive than traditional methods. ✔️
We share practical insights from a multi-sample case, including how LIBS was used to:
📊 determine light element concentrations
🧭 detect inhomogeneities
🔍 identify the source of defects
LIBS is not just a promising alternative — it’s a powerful tool for improving quality control and supporting innovation in materials science and manufacturing.

🔍 Choosing the right laser source can make a real difference — especially when working with demanding samples and expecting consistent, high-quality results.
💡 We recently tested a laser from RGB Lasersystems GmbH in our spectroscopy setup, and it turned out to be exactly what we needed:
✅ compact design
✅ stable performance
✅ narrow spectral linewidth

If you’re in Osaka next Wednesday, be sure to stop by and see our LIBS in action.
📍 Starting on May 28 at 12:00 PM local time at Czechia at EXPO 2025
🌾 What's inside a fertilizer granule? LIBS knows.
Precision agriculture starts at the microscopic level. Using LIBS, we can analyze the inner composition of fertilizer granules in detail.
This method reveals how manufacturing parameters influence nutrient distribution, helping improve product quality and consistency. A great example of applied science in agri-tech.

Evolution in Multi-Elemental Chemical Analysis – AtomTrace
AtomTrace a.s. has been founded as a start-up company from the Central European Institute of Technology at the Brno University of Technology (CEITEC BUT). The main goal is the commercialization of promising technologies that arise from research and development, particularly in the field of material analysis by the Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) technique.
Motivation and know-how are given by years of research and development activities of the laboratory of Laser Spectroscopy (Brno University of Technology, Czech Republic) and the Laboratory of analytical chemistry (Masaryk University), which are specialized in LIBS methods since 1997.
Due to the strong connection to the Institute of Physical Engineering and Institute of Machine and Industrial Design (BUT), the R&D team was always oriented on the development of the state of the art LIBS instrumentation. Besides the researchers (physics, chemistry, spectroscopy and statistics), our team includes also specialists in the machine design, electronics and software development. Long-term cooperation with other institutes, such as the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, enables to include experts from related science fields.
