Abstract

The feasibility of obtaining FT-Raman spectra of consumer products inside clear polymeric packaging is described. It is possible to obtain high-quality spectra of the sample without removing it from the package, thus enabling quality-control checks to be performed on a final product. Examples are shown for three pharmaceutical preparations and one food product.
