What are Microanalytical tests?

Microanalytical tests are sensitive analytical techniques used to analyze small quantities of substances, often at the molecular or elemental level. They are commonly employed in various fields, including chemistry, Biology, and materials science, to determine the composition or properties of samples that are too small for conventional methods. Examples include mass spectrometry, micro-Raman spectroscopy, and micro-X-ray fluorescence. These tests are crucial for applications such as drug development, environmental monitoring, and forensic analysis.
