Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Overview

The worry-free way to monitor your process and assure product quality

Keep your manufacturing process under control and your products within specification with the push of a button. Thermo Fisher Scientific offers a full line of NIR analyzers with common platform elements in software, validation features, methodology, and support, helping you achieve the quality you demand. Regardless of whether your products are sold in the pharmaceutical, polymer and chemical, or food and beverage markets, these easy-to-use integrated tools coupled with our support allow you to create, implement, and maintain calibrations for your materials

 

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) is a widely used rapid alternative to time-consuming, solvent intensive, wet-chemistry methods and chromatographic techniques. Rely on NIR to quickly verify incoming raw materials, monitor reaction progress, and quantify final products with ease. NIR analysis offers several advantages over traditional techniques, including no requirement for sample preparation, non-destructive measurement, accurate and reliable analysis, reduced cost, and increased sample throughput. Additionally, remote sampling with fiber optic probes is an ideal option for online process monitoring.
