Abstract

The NIR reflection spectra of some purified conifer resin extracts used as a biologically active ingredient in pharmaceutical ointments were employed to reveal the possibility of applying NIR spectroscopy to quality control. The samples were analysed beforehand (by HPLC and compendial methods) in order to characterise them. The fingerprint of this raw material was achieved by using the standard methods recommended by the NSAS operating protocol (for the spectrometer delivered by NIRSystems Inc.). The poor quality samples were also tested by means of same protocol, the limits of method being pointed out.
