HORIBA SCIENTIFIC AQUALOGThe HORIBA Scientific Aqualog is an optical spectrometer that is the gold standard in environmental water research around the world for the study of color dissolved organic matter. It complies with ASTM D8431, and meets the needs of environmental water researchers around the world studying CDOM using fluorescence spectroscopy. Formerly researchers were using scanning spectrofluorometers to slowly acquire a 3D matrix of the fluorescence excitation and fluorescence emission spectra, called an Excitation Emission Matrix. The EEM provides a fingerprint for studying dissolved organic matter; however, it took up to an hour to collect a single EEM profile,
