Evaluating Active Ingredients in Pharmaceutical Hot Melt Extrusion Products with Raman Imaging
11 Nov 2014Hot Melt Extrusion (HME) is a highly beneficial alternative to traditional methods for the manufacture of pharmaceutical products. In this application note, discover how Raman imaging can verify the distribution and integrity of the various components used in HME as well as identify contaminants throughout the process in order to assure a reliable and reproducible product.

Raman SpectroscopyRaman spectroscopy is used to discern the vibrational and rotational states of molecules and hence the chemical composition of a sample by measuring the inelastic scattering of monochromatic light. Explore a range of Raman spectrometers, including handheld/portable Raman spectrometers for QC/QA labs and in situ spectrometers for processes. Conduct Raman imaging for microanalysis of mixed samples using a Raman microscope. Raman spectrographs are also available.
