This webinar will describe how Raman microscopy can help solve some of the most vital and challenging questions that researchers face in 3D imaging and microparticle analyses of food, pharmaceuticals and microplastics, along with providing measurement examples from each field.
Zafar Iqbal sheds light on how Raman spectroscopy is used to detect and understand the amorphous phase in a range of solids, providing examples of his own laboratory applications.
The efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic properties of a protein therapeutic substantially depend on the molecule having the right structure. This article reviews current methods used for obtaining higher order structure information of biotherapeutics.
Many researchers are keen to find analytical solutions that generate the chemical fingerprint of a sample at the molecular and cellular level. Overcoming these problems is made possible by label-free techniques such as Raman, SPRi or particle size analysis. This brief overview will identify the benefits of Raman spectroscopy.
High-resolution measurements of particles are of great interest in many fields of application. Combining confocal Raman microscopy with particle analysis tools makes it possible to find, classify and identify particles almost entirely automatically.
Analytical techniques for QA/QC purposes are integral to the safe production of therapeutics. This in-depth focus looks at Raman spectroscopy for amorphous phase analysis and discusses the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state of bacteria in environmental monitoring.
ProCellics™ software is available with ProCellics™ GMP bioprocess in-line analyser. ProCellics™ software has been specifically developed to address bioprocess monitoring needs...
There has been a lot of interest in enhancing the sensitivity of Raman spectroscopy due to the low efficiency of the Raman technique. A pre-concentration technique, drop-coating deposition Raman (DCDR), has been used in recent years to increase the utility of Raman spectroscopy by decreasing the detection limit for non-enhanced…
Quality medicines are essential to any healthcare system and are the final goal of any pharmaceutical manufacturer. Unfortunately, as stated recently by the World Health Organization (WHO), one in 10 medical products circulating in low and middle-income countries is either substandard or falsified (SF products).1 Although the exact prevalence of…
The FDA’s Quality by Design (QbD) initiative brought a paradigm shift to pharmaceutical manufacturing and leading manufacturers have realised improved processes after adopting QbD. Raman spectroscopy is an established Process Analytical Technology (PAT), enabling QbD and continuous approaches to pharmaceutical manufacturing.1
Sophisticated hardware and software offer speed and precision. Pharmaceutical development often involves samples in solution or on transparent substrates. For these applications, confocal Raman imaging using an inverted beam path is an especially versatile and powerful investigative method.
This In-Depth Focus covers drop-coating deposition Raman (DCDR) spectroscopy for metabolite profiling and recent developments of Raman spectroscopy for the qualitative analysis of falsified and substandard medicines.
In this issue: Navigating roadblocks to clinical success: decision-making from molecule to clinic, Raman spectroscopy for the qualitative analysis of falsified and substandard medicines, and an overview of risk assessments for elemental impurities: implementation of ICH Q3D guidelines.
90 years ago Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman and Kariamanickam Srinivasa Krishnan first documented "A New Type of Secondary Radiation," which then became known as the Raman Effect [1, 2]. Raman spectroscopy is based on this effect and is used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of the chemical components and molecules of…
