The NanoRam handheld Raman spectrometer provides a solution to customers who need to deploy instruments in volume among different sites, to efficiently analyze incoming ingredients and fillers as part of a LEAN manufacturing and quality process. The NanoRam allows rapid development of standardized and validated methods to facilitate inspection for purity and quality. Not only can the NanoRam be used for raw material identification and verification, but when used in conjunction with commercially available SERS substrates, it can also be used for the detection of deadly contaminants.

• Raw Material Inspection for Incoming Material Identification and Verification
• Detection of Bacteria and/or Contaminants in Food Products
• Identification of Additive Drugs: Nutraceuticals in Fruit Drinks

Raw material identification in the manufacturing of food products is becoming more important than ever, and with the advantages of portable Raman spectroscopy, such as ease of sampling, on the spot analysis with no need for quarantine areas, highly selective peaks for both qualitative and quantitative analysis, and the ability to analyze both organic and inorganic compounds over a wide spectral range, the NanoRam reduces production costs and escalates productivity, all at the same time.
