Webinar Date/Time: Tuesday, January 9, 2024 at 11am EST | 8am PST | 4pm GMT| 5pm CET
In this webinar, the presenters will explore how complex materials can be efficiently and confidently verified using non-invasive spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS). Polysorbates, solvents, and stearates will be used as case studies to demonstrate how SORS reduces risk, improves efficiency, and simplifies compliance and quality.

Event Overview:
While conventional handheld Raman instruments have improved raw material verification processes for many pharmaceutical drug manufacturing facilities, complex raw materials still pose significant challenges. Common complex materials—like polysorbates, solvents, and stearates—often require time-consuming and quality-compromising sampling procedures due to their remarkable spectral similarity and the challenging containers in which they’re received. Especially when received at high volumes, this prevents efficient raw material verification and can often cause bottlenecks in release to production and waste, as well as risk to raw material quality.
In this webinar, the presenters will explore how complex materials can be efficiently and confidently verified using non-invasive spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS). Three common, high-volume, and complex materials (polysorbates, solvents, and stearates) will be used as case studies to demonstrate how SORS reduces risk, improves efficiency, and simplifies compliance and quality.

New SERS-Microfluidic Platform Classifies Leukemia Using Machine Learning
January 14th 2025A combination of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and machine learning on microfluidic chips has achieved an impressive 98.6% accuracy in classifying leukemia cell subtypes, offering a fast, highly sensitive tool for clinical diagnosis.
Nanometer-Scale Studies Using Tip Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
February 8th 2013Volker Deckert, the winner of the 2013 Charles Mann Award, is advancing the use of tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) to push the lateral resolution of vibrational spectroscopy well below the Abbe limit, to achieve single-molecule sensitivity. Because the tip can be moved with sub-nanometer precision, structural information with unmatched spatial resolution can be achieved without the need of specific labels.
Edible Oil Testing: Handheld Raman Spectroscopy Offers Quick, Reagent-Free Answers
January 6th 2025Researchers have developed a rapid, reagent-free method to estimate the saponification value (SV) of edible oils using handheld Raman spectroscopy. This innovative approach simplifies oil quality testing, cutting time and costs while enhancing accuracy and portability.
Raman Microscopy for Characterizing Defects in SiC
January 2nd 2025Because there is a different Raman signature for each of the polymorphs as well as the contaminants, Raman microscopy is an ideal tool for analyzing the structure of these materials as well as identifying possible contaminants that would also interfere with performance.
