Identify, quantify and verify materials—from incoming inspection through finished product

To ensure product quality and consumer safety, pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturers must verify materials throughout production. The Thermo Scientific TruScan G3 Handheld Raman Analyzer uses lab-proven Raman spectroscopy to perform accurate and reliable material identification at the point of need, minimizing the need for costly and time-consuming laboratory sampling tests.

The analyzer’s non-destructive point-and-shoot sampling principle facilitates rapid verification of a broad range of chemical compounds through sealed packaging to minimize the risk of contamination and exposure.

QA/QC applications:

  • Incoming raw material identification (RMID)
  • Dispensing of materials during API manufacture
  • Finished product inspection

Brand security application:

  • Identification of falsified (counterfeit) medicines

Raman spectroscopy

Raman spectroscopy

The technology behind TruScan Handheld Raman Analyzers is Raman spectrometry, a type of vibrational spectroscopy that characterizes materials based on measured patterns of vibrational frequencies, or wavelengths. Handheld Raman analyzers emit a laser light at 785nm and detects scattered photons at other wavelengths. The scattered light is a unique fingerprint for that material, and TruScan Handheld Raman Analyzers use this "spectral fingerprint" to identify raw material or finished drug products. The 785nm laser wavelength provides optimal balance for measuring most pharmaceutical materials without compromising spectral resolution or Raman signal intensity.

TruScan Handheld Raman Analyzers patented multivariate residual analysis offers the most effective chemometric solution for material identification—with two spectral pre-processing options—that is easy to operate in challenging environments and sampling conditions.

TruScan Handheld Raman Analyzers acquire the Raman spectrum of the material and, in real time, determine the uncertainty of that measurement, given factors such as the sample characteristics, instrument telemetry, environment and testing environment. Since the software models the uncertainty (or in statistical terms, standard deviation) directly, there is no calibration or user modeling involved with method development.
