Portable Raman Spectroscopy for Pharmaceutical Analysis
Pharmaceutical testing often requires reliable identification of raw materials and finished products without adding unnecessary complexity or cost. This application demonstrates how a low-cost, portable Raman spectrometer can provide rapid, non-destructive analysis for pharmaceutical samples, supporting material identification and quality control.
Measuring Optical Transmission in Pharmaceutical Bottles
Packaging plays an important role in protecting light-sensitive pharmaceuticals from potentially damaging UV and visible radiation. This application explores how optical transmission spectroscopy can measure the light-blocking performance of plastic bottles, helping manufacturers evaluate packaging materials for pharmaceutical and other light-sensitive products.
NIR Spectroscopy for Nutraceutical Quality Control
Nutraceutical manufacturers need efficient ways to monitor ingredients and finished products while maintaining consistent quality. This customer spotlight explores how near-infrared spectroscopy is used at Sun-Pac Manufacturing to support rapid analysis and quality control, demonstrating the practical role of spectroscopy in modern nutraceutical production.
