Herbal Materials and Natural Foods Analysis with Handheld Raman from Rigaku

Dietary supplement manufacturers are required to use at least one appropriate test method to verify the identity of any component or excipient that is used in the manufacturing of a dietary supplement. The Progeny Handheld Raman Analyzer is ideal for identification due to its chemical selectivity. This application note demonstrates the advantages of using a 1064nm analyzer through the identification of two separate natural ingredients, turmeric and green tea powder.
