Raman spectroscopy
Through-container analysis with Raman spectroscopy
Aug 19 2025
Raman spectroscopy is widely used for rapid, nondestructive identification in scientific, medical, and law enforcement settings. Traditionally, it is used to sample materials directly or through transparent/translucent barriers, which limits its practicality in the field. A new and unique advancement - Raman identification through opaque packaging - overcomes this limitation. Through-package analysis permits easier, safer, and faster material identification and avoids contact with unknown substances for warehouse inspections, first responders, and customs agents.
From content ID of a suspicious bag during a traffic stop to analysis of homemade incendiary devices, every second counts and nothing can be left to chance. The TacticID-1064 ST from Metrohm also benefits manufacturers who perform raw material verification. Operators can test container contents without exposure and get results in seconds. This streamlines QC and supports 100% testing of incoming goods. It also enables 90% of testing to happen at the point of receipt and avoids delays in production due to laboratory wait times.
