RapID can scan through multi-layer paper sacks in seconds
RapID Raw Material ID Verification System
With conventional techniques, raw material testing in opaque containers can create a bottleneck in pharmaceutical manufacturing. A dedicated sampling area is needed to open, sample, test, and reseal each container to verify the identity of the contents. The RapID system allows the operator to verify the contents of each container through opaque and colored packaging in seconds, enabling release immediately into production. This saving on handling and lab testing reduces the overhead from hours or days to only minutes per batch.

Spatially Offset Raman Spectroscopy (SORS)
Spatially offset Raman Spectroscopy (SORS) is a unique way to analyze objects when the contents are behind non-transparent layers or containers.
Learn MoreHandheld & Portable Raman Spectrometers
The development of handheld Raman spectrometers sparked a step change in portable spectroscopy applications, enabling users to conduct measurements in the field, wherever required. Agilent portable Raman systems use SORS to measure through opaque containers in pharmaceutical raw material ID, hazmat, CBRN, and policing.

RapID Used in the Analysis of Alcohol-Based Hand Sanitizers
The Covid-19 pandemic has increased the need for disinfectants and in particular alcohol hand sanitizers. An article by the FDA St. Louis OTR team, published in Nature, describes how the quality of these hand sanitizers can be assessed without sampling. Active ingredients (e.g., alcohol) of commercial sanitizers were identified and quantified, regardless of the container material or opacity, using spatially offset Raman spectroscopy. The FDA team used the Agilent RapID to acquire the Raman signal of the hand sanitizer directly through transparent and opaque plastic containers. (RA44459.4152314815)
