Can Raman be used for automated screening?
Since Raman spectroscopy is a non-contact , non destructive technique, it can be used effectively for automated screening and assay measurements.
The development of automated sample scanning, autofocus systems, and automated data acquisition and analysis procedures enable HTS, high throughput screening techniques to be implemented with Raman.
HTS screening and automated measurements can even be integrated with full robot handling removing the need for expertise and operator intervention.
Applications such as DLC coatings for computer hard discs, and for crystal and polymorph screening in drug development now use Raman spectroscopy.
