This study demonstrates the through-opaque-container analysis capability of the Agilent Vaya handheld Raman spectrometer by performing measurements on a range of common excipients and active ingredients within blue barrels. Spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS) is the unique Agilent technology that is the basis of the unique Vaya container subtraction algorithm. This technology can optimize the spectra to provide the clearest signature of contents with the minimum amount of container interference. Verification of raw materials directly through plastic barrels provides efficient raw material identification (RMID) workflows in the warehouse without the need for specialized personnel or controlled sampling environments.
A Seamless Trace Elemental Analysis Prescription for Quality Pharmaceuticals
March 31st 2025Quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) are essential in pharmaceutical manufacturing to ensure compliance with standards like United States Pharmacopoeia <232> and ICH Q3D, as well as FDA regulations. Reliable and user-friendly testing solutions help QA/QC labs deliver precise trace elemental analyses while meeting throughput demands and data security requirements.
