MIRO Analytical is a Swiss manufacturer of laser-based gas analyzers and isotope analyzers.

The company is based in Zurich, Switzerland and was founded 2018.[1]

History

MIRO Analytical is a spin-off of Empa,[2] a Swiss research institute of the ETH domain. It has know-how in laser spectroscopy and in particular, in the combination of several quantum-cascade lasers (QCLs) into compact laser-based gas analyzers.[3]

The company's first instrument was a nine gas analyzer MGA-9 in 2018. By 2019 the MGA-10 a ten gas analyzer was introduced which measures greenhouse gases and air pollutants.[4] [5]

Technology

The gas analyzers directly measure concentrations of multiple gas species using mid-infrared laser absorption spectroscopy with QCLs as light sources. This allows for highly specific and accurate gas detection along with maximum measurement sensitivity.[6]
