This article reviews recent advances in the application of transmission Raman spectroscopy (TRS) to pharmaceutical analysis. The TRS technique overcomes subsampling limitations of conventional Raman spectroscopy and enables rapid noninvasive volumetric analysis of intact pharmaceutical tablets and capsules in a quantitative manner with relevance to quality and process control applications. Although only recently introduced to this area, this technique's uptake and breadth of applications are rapidly growing, with regulatory approvals for its use in quality control of manufactured pharmaceutical products recently being granted.
