Part of the published second Supplement to the US Pharmacopoeia USP 30
(2007) is a revision of the General Chapter <1120> which also describes
Raman Spectroscopy. In addition to a general introduction to the measuring
principles, the chapter also covers the following topics in more detail:
- Possible measurements: qualitative and quantitative
- Factors influencing the quantitative measurements
- Design of Raman measuring devices
- Calibration of Raman Instruments
- Qualification and Validation
- Method Validation
Implementing this chapter into the US Pharmacopoeia in the
past year and revising it this year certainly facilitates the application of
Raman Spectroscopy in the pharmaceutical industry as well as ist acceptance
in authorities.
