Ultraviolet spectroscopic qualities

Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Qualities of Platinum Group Compounds... 

Numerous analyses in the quality control of most kinds of samples occurring in the flavour industry are done by different chromatographic procedures, for example gas chromatography (GC), high-pressure liquid chromatography (fiPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). Besides the different IR methods mentioned already, further spectroscopic techniques are used, for example nuclear magnetic resonance, ultraviolet spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy (MS) and atomic absorption spectroscopy. In addition, also in quality control modern coupled techniques like GC-MS, GC-Fourier transform IR spectroscopy, HPLC-MS and CE-MS are gaining more and more importance. 

Ouantitative IR absorption methods differ somewhat from ultraviolet-visible molecular spectroscopic methods because of the greater complexity of the spectra, the narrowness of the absorption bands, and ilie instrumental limitations of IR instruments. (Quantitative data obtained with older dispersive IR instruments were generally signilicantly inferior in quality to data obtained with UV visible speclrophotomelers. 1 he precision and acciir icyof measurements with modern F TIR iustrumenis, however, is distinctiv betler than those... 

Process analytical technology (PAT) can be developed early in development with a line of sight to commercial process control (ICH Qll 2011a). Easily integrated into the process equipment, as shown in Fig. 7.1, the application of in-line probes can provide unique opportunities to monitor processes in line. Spectroscopic techniques such as ultraviolet/visible (UV/VIS), near-infrared (NIR), and Raman can be utilized in line at the extmder die to ensure critical quality attributes (CQAs) such as composition and amorphous conversion of the API. Validation of these techniques at the pilot scale and transfer to the commercial scale allow for efficient manufacture of commercial material in a continuous manner and the implementation of a process control strategy that enables material outside the design space to be diverted to waste...
