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.

Evaluating Microplastic Detection with Fluorescence Microscopy and Raman Spectroscopy
July 2nd 2025A recent study presented a dual-method approach combining confocal micro-Raman spectroscopy and Nile Red-assisted fluorescence microscopy to enhance the accuracy and throughput of microplastics detection in environmental samples.
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.
