Overcoming optical focus issues in handheld Raman systems for analysis of pharmaceutical drug formulations

AN-RS-011 Improving verification with Orbital Raster Scan technology Summary Raman spectrometers use tightly focused beams to produce high resolution spectra, but fail at analyzing heterogeneous substances because they cannot spatially target all components. Orbital Raster Scan (ORSTM) increases the interrogation…

Besli (Metrohm) Contents Preface History Theory – a first approach Scattering of light Raman scattering Comparing spectroscopic methods Raman instrumentation Raman system components Laboratory Raman spectroscopy Raman…

AN-RS-034 Orbital Raster Scan (ORS™) Safer, more representative sampling with 785 nm Raman Summary The ability of an optical system to efficiently collect light is known as its throughput or etendue. In an ideal world of homogeneous samples, a Raman…

AN-RS-010 P-test verification of Equate cold tablets and comparison with Alka-Seltzer Summary Producers of generic brands offer cosmetics, medicines and other goods in competition with name brands, often at a lower price point. This lower cost may reflect a lack…
