Traditionally, content uniformity analysis for tablets has been performed off-line by liquid chromatography. Performed in batches, this approach is time-consuming. A new spectroscopy-based system called TANDEM, as detailed by Bruker Optics in a white paper, combines Bruker’s Matrix Fourier transform near-infrared spectrometer with a Dr. Schleuniger Pharmatron 10X conventional tablet tester to enable rapid, on-line, non-destructive tablet content uniformity characterization along with moisture and excipient analysis.
