How is Raman Microscopy Used in the Pharmaceutical Industry?

Any analytical technique must be easily accessible and provides excellent results regardless of the user's level of knowledge. Especially in pharma, efficiency is key and reliability is mandatory. The ability to quickly visualize the uniformity and distribution of APIs and excipients makes Raman microscopy a fast and practical solution for the QA and QC in Pharma.

			New chip-sized microscope focuses on super-resolution viewing An EU-funded project is developing a super-resolution microscope small enough to fit on to a computer chip that can be used to see changes in living cells in real time. Potential applications include a wide range of science and research fields, as well as consumer goods, with the innovation potential to strengthen European industry.

			New DNA Microscopy Technique Offers Novel Insight into Genomic Information in Cells Scientists are now able to see inside cells to a genomic level with a newly invented imaging technique called DNA microscopy. Using DNA “bar codes”, DNA microscopy allows scientists to locate a molecule’s position in a sample without using any kind of optics, meaning genomic information can be collected in large amounts.

	Scientific discovery may lead to a treatment for lupus When there is an excessive number or hyperactivation of immune cells, very high levels of proteins known as cytokines are released, resulting in a cytokine storm that causes severe and often irreversible tissue damage. This accounts for the crippling nature of many autoimmune disorders such as lupus.

	What is AFM-IR? AFM-IR, or atomic force microscope infrared-spectroscopy, is an analytical technique used to characterize unknown substances on a nanoscale level by combining atomic force microscopy and infrared spectroscopy.

	Super-Resolution Raman Imaging with Plasmonic Substrates An interview with Renee Frontiera from the University of Minnesota, discussing the development of a super-resolution Raman microscope that could one day supersede fluorescence-based super-resolution microscopes.

	Researchers develop new 3D tissue imaging technique to study disease at cellular level To diagnose and treat diseases like cancer, scientists and doctors must understand how cells respond to different medical conditions and treatments. Researchers have developed a new way to study disease at the cellular level.

	Laser light helps identify tumors It can take up to four weeks before patients can be sure whether the entire tumor has been removed during cancer surgery. A time of agonizing uncertainty - in which any remaining tumor cells can already multiply again. A team of scientists from Jena has now researched a diagnostic procedure that could revolutionize the previous procedure: Using laser light, the researchers make cancerous tissue visible.

	An Introduction to IR Nanochemical Mapping Many samples absorb light at a characteristic frequency, which is sometimes known as their "chemical signature". Linear spectroscopy can be performed using blackbody sources and radiation generated by a synchrotron, while non-linear spectroscopy is performed using lasers and pulsed lasers. This type of microscopy uses infrared spectral analysis to achieve high lateral resolution and chemical identification of the sample.
