Abstract

THE possibility of using the Raman effect for quantitative analysis depends upon two conditions: (1) The components of the mixture in question should possess distinguishable spectra, a requirement depending on the nature of the molecules. (2) The photographed spectra should be sufficiently intense and the background clear enough to provide good microphotometer measurements. The accompanying account concerns an investigation of these conditions in the case of amino acid solutions.
