Abstract

AbstractIn the past few years, there has been significant interest within the forensic community regarding the deployment of portable solutions that provide real‐time results. This article introduces an innovative technology or technology architecture that enables the integration of a handheld device, specifically, Viavi MicroNIR, with a cloud‐based system. This cloud system encompasses a server responsible for data processing and a mobile application acting as a user interface.To demonstrate the transformative impact of this technology on field operators, the analysis of cannabis specimens has been utilized. System's capacity to distinguish between CBD‐type and THC‐type cannabis has been particularly highlighted, along with the remarkable congruence observed between the near‐infrared (NIR) spectra and the reference analytical method involving ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC)The article will present the advantages of this application primarily focusing on its potential to alleviate the burden on laboratories by expediting routine illicit drug analysis. Viavi MicroNIR technology provides laboratory personnel with additional time to handle more complex cases, thereby enhancing overall efficiency.
