A review on the measurement of optical activity by using a Polarimeter

Author(s):

Marshal Soni

Abstract:
The plane polarized light passing through the solutions of some organic and inorganic compounds caused polarized light to rotate. This property is known as optical activity. The amount and direction of rotation can be determined with a Polarimeter. The present work gives the earlier, current developmental status and design considerations of existing optical activity measurements, instruments, analysis and techniques for automation. The above said areas are covered in the review. The intention of the present work is to develop the future research work in the field of polarimetry.
