Industry news

The personal care and cosmetics industry is facing increasing pressure regarding quality control of their products. Register for this free on-demand webinar where Maria Cartes and Andreas Agerer from Metrohm International Headquarters present Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) as a solution for manufacturers of personal care and cosmetic products to implement fast and cost-efficient QC testing in production.

The personal care and cosmetics Industry is not yet as strictly regulated as the pharmaceutical industry. However, there are drivers for improved product safety and more rigorous and frequent testing. NIRS can help manufacturers meet this challenge: NIRS is a non-destructive technology; no chemicals and reagents are needed, and results for several physical and chemical key parameters are obtained at the touch of a screen in a few seconds

Key learning points of this webinar:

  • The principles of NIRS explained: how does it work, what you can measure, and what are the limitations
  • How can I make NIRS work in my laboratory?
  • Typical applications of NIRS for QC of personal care products: What are the time and cost savings?

Near Infrared SpectroscopyNear-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy measures the interaction of near-infrared light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance and absorbance, facilitating the identification of analytes. Measurements can be conducted using a Fourier-transform near infrared (FT-NIR) spectrometer, while there are also UV-Vis- NIR spectrophotometers that measure a broader spectrum of wavelengths. Find the best NIR spectroscopy products in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.CosmeticsSpectroscopySpectroscopy is a technique that analyzes the interaction of light with matter to study molecular properties, concentrations, and structural information. Widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, and environmental analysis, spectroscopy offers insights into molecular composition and helps identify unknown compounds. It plays a key role in quality control, research, and diagnostics. Browse our peer-reviewed product directory to compare spectroscopy tools, read reviews, and get prices directly from manufacturers.
