The most academically referenced Texture Analyser in the world

Every day, our Texture Experts receive Google Scholar notifications when new papers are published using Stable Micro Systems Texture Analysers. We use these alerts to:

  • Track how our instruments are being used in emerging application areas

  • Share new ideas with customers and distributors

  • Inform future software and hardware development

With the growing number of Google Scholar notifications we were intrigued to see how frequently the Texture Analyser is being used in academic publications. We were delighted to have Google Scholar calculate that ours are the most academically referenced Texture Analysers in the world – see for yourself.

How published research supports your projects

Citations and published papers are more than just a metric – they help your team to:

  • Justify instrument selection in grant applications and purchase proposals by showing widespread academic adoption.

  • Benchmark test methods against peer-reviewed protocols to ensure robust, repeatable measurements.

  • Accelerate method development by adapting approaches already proven in similar formulations or materials.

  • Connect with collaborators working in your specific niche of texture analysis.

If you’re planning a new project and would like to see how other researchers in your field are using our instruments, we can help you identify the most relevant published work by examples below.
