Webinar Details

This 60-minute webinar highlights practical approaches to FTIR analysis from raw materials through to final product testing. Key topics include GLP-1 peptide analysis, pharmacopoeia compliance, food fraud detection, and protein stability assessment using advanced sampling accessories. This session is ideal for formulation scientists, QA/QC teams, and FTIR users in pharma, biotech, and food industries looking to enhance their analytical capabilities.

The webinar will also explore how ATR, transmission, and reaction monitoring tools from the Specac portfolio can be configured for high-sensitivity, temperature-controlled analysis – supporting users across pharmaceutical and food science applications.
