Identification of Medical Raw Materials by Raman Spectrometer

Fig 1Pharmaceutic Adjuvant

Principle: Raman Scattering Spectroscopy
Light on matter scatters both elastic and inelastic. The scattered light of elastic scattering has the same wavelength as the excited light, while the scattered light of inelastic scattering has the longer and shorter components than the excited light, collectively known as the Raman effect.

Test Substance: Sucrose (AR grade)
Packing Material: transparent white PE bottle, transparent PE bottle and transparent PE ziplocking bag.

1.The instrument can detect the contents through transparent or even non-transparent packaging;   
2. The packaging material will reduce the Raman signal, the thicker the packaging, the weaker the Raman signal;
3. Identification effect: transparent thin packaging > transparent thick packaging > non-transparent thin packaging;

Raman spectroscopy is a legal analysis method recognized by The Chinese Pharmacopoeia, the United  States  pharmacopoeia  and  the  European  Pharmacopoeia,  which  is  suitable  for  100% identification of raw materials, intermediates and packaging materials.Raman spectroscopy is a modern analysis method based on Raman scattering phenomenon. It is widely used in medicine because of its advantages of high sensitivity and simple operation, which does ot require special pretreatment  of  samples  during  detection.  The  handheld  Raman  spectrometer  instrument  is intuitive and simple to operate. It uses a matteroffact, nondestructive sampling design to quickly test various compounds in a transparent, sealed package, effectively minimizing contamination and exposure risks.
