tested using spectral analysis
One of these cases where you have to rephrase. 132,000 hits for "spectral analysis", so it certainly exists in English!

Another rephrase (taking the \"Emissionsspektralanalysator\" into account) could be something like \"a spectral analysis test was carried out with the ...\" or \"spectral analysis tests were carried out etc.\"

: In Daniela's sentence, it's being used as an adverb, which doesn't work in English. So you still have to rephrase, even if you say something like "spectroanalytical tests were carried out", "spectroanalytical testing was done" etc.

in this particular instance, I agree. I meant that a rephrase is not always necessary.
