Raw Material Verification / Raw Material ID

The production of pharmaceuticals requires comprehensive analyses for quality assurance. Identity checks of goods can now be performed easily, fast and at low cost directly in receipt of goods. The identification is even possible through transparent containers and multi-layered PVC films. Storage areas and sampling are reduced to a minimum thanks to light, handheld Raman and NIR spectrometers. The instruments guarantee the highest selectivity, fast method creation and reliable results directly on-site.

Mix-ups, mislabelling and discrepancies in the supply chain can have a significantly impact on product quality, production processes and costs. Early detection of incorrect raw materials minimises this risk and enhances safety throughout the entire process chain. At the same time, documented raw material testing helps ensure compliance with GMP requirements and internal quality standards.

With on-site analysis carried out directly at the container, raw materials can be checked and approved immediately. This speeds up the flow of materials, reduces the laboratory's workload and improves the availability of raw materials for production. Companies benefit from greater process efficiency, lower costs and consistently assured product quality. Combining Raman and NIR analysis allows the largest possible proportion of incoming raw materials to be checked for identity directly in the warehouse. The number of samples that still require labour-intensive and time-consuming laboratory analysis in the laboratory is reduced to a minimum.

• Minimising the risk of incorrect batches and product recalls helps to prevent mix-ups.
• It also enables goods to be cleared more quickly upon arrival, reducing storage times.
• It reduces laboratory workload and costs.
• Avoiding the need to open containers improves product quality and increases process reliability.
• It also ensures GMP-compliant quality assurance.
• Modern, sustainable identification reduces the carbon footprint.

• Verify the identity of the goods upon receipt.
• Qualitative and quantitative characterisation of active ingredients, intermediates and finished products.
• At-line monitoring of critical production parameters.
• Detection of counterfeit medicines and verification of genuine products.
