FAQs About  Spectrocolorimeter

The most important equation is A = 2εcl, where A is the absorbance, 2 is a constant, ε is the molar absorptivity (L/mol cm), c is the concentration (molL-11), and l is the path length (cm). This can be used to relate the absorbance to the concentration, allowing quantification through colorimetric assays.


The LAB color space defines colors in a three-dimensional model: Lightness (L), red–green axis (a), and blue–yellow axis (b). It's a globally recognized standard supported by most modern color measuring devices. CIELAB is a standardized, device-independent system designed to map all visible colors that the human eye can perceive.

The LAB color space uses three values to define any color, each representing a specific dimension:


L (Lightness): Ranges from 0 to 100. It measures the brightness of the color, where 0 is pure black and 100 is pure white.
A (Red-Green Axis): Ranges from approximately -128 to +127. Positive values represent red tones, while negative values represent green tones.
B (Yellow-Blue Axis): Ranges from approximately -128 to +127. Positive values represent yellow tones, while negative values represent blue tones.


Record the L*a*b values of the sample and the reference with a calibrated spectrophotometer or colorimeter. Compute the difference in the color by use of ΔE. The lower the Delta E, the more accurate the result. The difference in energy, ΔE < 1, is generally assumed to be invisible to the eye.


A colorimeter is used to measure the intensity of color of a solution by measuring its absorbance at selected wavelengths of light. It is widely applied in chemistry, food, pharmaceuticals, and quality control to determine concentration, track color changes, or product uniformity.


To quantify color change, take the original L*a*b* values of a sample, and reread after exposure or processing. Compute the difference as 1/2(Emut1 Emut2). The larger the value of ΔE, the more obvious the change of color is, which can be used in quality or stability testing.
