The invention discloses a Raman
spectrum imaging method for a semi-
solid preparation, and relates to the technical field of
Raman imaging.The method comprises the steps that an original sample (such as cream and gel plaster) of the semi-
solid preparation is taken, the original form of the original sample is kept,
grinding, dissolving or
chemical modification is not conducted, the sample is placed on an
inert slide glass of a two-dimensional
translation table, and the sample is placed on a Raman
spectrometer; the advantages of no mark, no
sample preparation, high specificity and the like of the Raman spectrum technology are utilized,
microscopic imaging and
chemometrics analysis are combined,
crystal form identification, component distribution
visualization and quantitative analysis of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the semi-
solid preparation are achieved, and the method can be applied to
quality control,
process optimization and consistency evaluation of the semi-solid preparations such as cream and gel, and has a wide application prospect. The method overcomes the defects that a traditional XRD method needs
sample preparation and cannot realize online monitoring, and has the advantages of
high resolution, real-time performance and full quantitative analysis capability.
