Highlights

  • Diffuse reflectance near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a non-invasive and widely used technology with the potential for a wide range of applications in the pharmaceutical industry, ranging from raw material identification to final product qualification

  • Powder blending processes, as one of the key unit operations for solid dosage forms can be monitored in real-time for the blend quality and blending time until uniformity

  • Common NIR systems enable single point measurements at dedicated positions of the blender, based on the assumption, that the sampled position represents the whole blend. This is a problematic task as the mixing characteristics of powders significantly change (e. g., segregation, agglomeration, etc.) with the process parameters
