Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive analytical technique based on the inelastic scattering of photons related to the different vibrational modes of molecules. This discovery by C. V. Raman in 1928 resulted in a simple yet effective method to determine the structure of simple molecules that continues to grow in popularity among the scientific community. As the spectrometer’s laser ...
Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman, the man responsible for discovering the Raman effect, paved the way for the modern Raman Microscopes that Edinburgh Instruments manufactures today. ...
Handheld 785 nm Raman is a well-established material identification technique, most notably in the pharmaceutical and defense and security markets. Now, new capabilities developed by Metrohm Raman are expected to increase the capabilities of handheld Raman in diverse industries. This article will first cover the instrumentation and then conclude with several new applications for 785 nm Raman ...
These official standards are legally binding in several countries – not only in Europe, but worldwide. Raman spectrometers—especially handheld and portable instruments—are increasingly used for QC of medicines and raw materials (RMID). ...
Ever since the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended that all pharmaceutical companies test every raw material that passes through their manufacturing facilities, this practice has attracted great interest in the nutraceuticals, food manufacturing, cosmetics, and agricultural industries, pushing them to strive for more rigorous and technology-oriented quality control standards. In recent ...
