Analytical Chemistry is the science of chemical measurements that seeks to acquire the most comprehensive information about a chemical system. Recent advances in technology have facilitated the development of new combined analytical techniques capable of supplying analytical signals of different natures. These signals subsequently provide diverse information related to specific chemical reactions. This technical note proposes a new combination of three different spectroscopic techniques (UV/vis absorption spectroscopy in a parallel configuration, photoluminescence and Raman spectroscopy) with electrochemistry. To illustrate the capabilities of this new technique, two chemical systems (tris-(2,2' bipyridine)-ruthenium-(II) and ofloxacin) were selected. A comparison of the behavior of the two molecules during the electrode process demonstrates the advantages of obtaining several signals simultaneously in a single experiment.

Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light. Liquid and gaseous samples are usually tested in ordinary glass capillaries, while solids can be analyzed as powders packed in capillaries or as potassium...
