Raman Spectroscopy "Fantastic Eyes"
In 2018, the Indian generic drug "Glenin" in the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is not a harmful fake drug, but in real life, the proliferation of fake drugs has long become a worldwide problem.
Needless to say, the dangers of counterfeit medicines are also urgent.
During the epidemic this year, some criminals used so-called "anti-epidemic drugs" to defraud in order to obtain profits.Fortunately, the increasingly popular analytical instruments have made the identification of counterfeit drugs more convenient.So, how do we detect the authenticity of drugs? The analytical method used by the testing department is Raman spectroscopy, which is a fingerprint-based analysis method because the Raman spectra of different substances are different. According to this feature, researchers can match the acquired map with the ingredients of the "fake" to obtain the raw material formula of the counterfeit drug, and then compare it with the "genuine" formula to know whether it is fake and how it is faked.
Why choose Ramanspectroscopy instead of other detection methods? Because Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive analysis and testing technology, the samples can still be stored intact after testing, so that they can be used as evidence in the future.
