Abstract
Molecular spectroscopy is used along the entire process chain in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, e.g., for raw material identification in the warehouse, real-time monitoring in the production and batch release for final product control. This talk illustrates the most recent trends of NIR and Raman spectroscopy: Spatially offset Raman for raw material identification - portable spatially offset spectrometers are able to analyse substances without sampling in unopened containers, even if those are opaque like brown paper sacks or white plastic containers. Measurements can be done by non-expert users and are completed within seconds. Virtual split Raman for static inprocess control - the virtual split technology multiplies the photon yield tenfold. Measurements are shortened to seconds instead of minutes or hours and analytics in the ppm range are possible, perfect for quality-by-design and continuous manufacturing approaches. Linear variable filter NIR for dynamic in-process control - tiny NIR systems with linear variable filter technology have no moving parts or delicate fiber optics, and can be installed almost everywhere to monitor typical processes like granulation or drying. A wireless battery-powered version can be mounted in dynamic processes, like rotating blenders. Transmission Raman for final batch release-transmission Raman spectroscopy (TRS) has emerged as a non-invasive and consumables-free alternative to time-consuming and expensive HPLC. It’s mainly used for the analysis of tablets, e.g. the content of active pharmaceutical ingredient or polymorphs.

Abstract
Spectral data reflect concentration variations of the components of an extract and can correlate statistically with measurable dose-dependent properties such as bioactivity. A carefully planned fractionation of plant material can generate a concentration variance of the components and can be reflected on the corresponding spectroscopical data. Correlation of these data with bioactivity would result to the identification of active constituents in the complex extract or fraction mixtures prior to any purification step. Examples of the fractionation procedure using the Centrifugal Partition Chromatography technique (CPC) and the correlation of NMR and MS data with bioactivity to identify the active constituents through the heterocovariance statistical analysis will be discussed. This highly innovative activity-based-metabolite-profiling can dramatically accelerate the discovery of active natural products challenging global biodiversity and chemo-diversity.

Abstract
Efficiency is essential in the field of pharmaceutical production as regulatory guidelines are getting tougher and tougher. Therefore processes need to be optimized in order to use the given resources in the best possible way. The new and unique transmission Raman-spectrometer TRS100 ensures increased product safety during content uniformity tests, while simultaneously saving 60-90% of operating costs compared to the commonly used HPLC. With the TRS, the measurement time for one sample is under one second. Measurement itself is completely non-destructive, making considerably more measurements possible and substantially reducing release time. In contrast to HPLC the analysis is completely non-destructive, needs to sample preparation and the results are not user dependent, but even transferable from one instrument to another. This new and modern analytical approach to content uniformity testing will also be helpful when it comes to continuous manufacturing. Integrating such a device into a process will ensure that the quality is consistent and the final release can easily and reliably be done. In addition to the high through put and the time saving approach the instrument has only very little maintenance costs and no consumables in contrast to the normal HPLC analysis that is very costly. As Raman is also sensitive for polymorphous substances this kind of testing is also useful for this. The speech shows how this new approach can be a revolution for the pharmaceutical world as far as cost and time saving is concerned. In addition, it is explained how the transmission technology ensures extremely selective results and how easy model building is.

Abstract
Calculation of solubility of solid phases as precipitates in aqueous media occupies a prominent place in scientific literature. However, the erroneous patterns of reasoning and simplifications made in textbooks, e.g. in J. Chem. Educ., as well as in didactic materials offered in the Internet, based on the schemas resulting from the ubiquitous stoichiometry of the reaction are unacceptable, and give incorrect results. This kind of the subject knowledge was clearly confirmed in the series of relevant challenges, organized in Anal. Bioanal. Chem. Note that the active participants of the challengeswere not students, but scientists, in general. The correct approach, based on the rules of conservation and detailed physicochemical/thermodynamic knowledge on the system considered is realizable according to generalized approach to electrolytic systems, presented. All the qualitative and quantitative knowledge is involved in the balances and independent expressions for the equilibrium constants.
