About Cobalt
Founded in 2008 as a spin-out from the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Cobalt is headquartered in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. Cobalt will become the new global center for Agilent's Raman Spectroscopy business.
Unique Technologies
Cobalt's proprietary technologies use novel variants of Raman spectroscopy. Cobalt's instruments can rapidly and accurately identify materials hidden inside objects or through opaque barriers such as plastic, colored glass, paper and skin, or can measure the concentrations of materials in mixtures, with a high degree of accuracy.
Innovative Products
Cobalt's innovative suite of benchtop and handheld/portable Raman spectroscopic instruments are applied in a range of applications, including:
- Pharmaceutical quantitative analysis of tablets and capsules
- Raw materials ID verification of pharmaceutical incoming goods
- Handheld detection of hazardous chemicals, explosives and narcotics
- Airport security screening of liquids, aerosols and gels
- Non-invasive biological analysis, including screening for diseases
