The Global Nutraceutical Market accounted for $350 billion in 2017 and is expected to reach $750 billion by 2026! New trends in Cannabis, Nutricosmetics, increased public awareness of sports nutritional supplements, and even pet supplements are helping to drive the market. The US FDA requires companies that manufacture, package, or label dietary supplements to follow Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations. Dietary supplement manufacturers must implement quality control systems and have all aspects of their process documented in order to pass an FDA audit of their facility. A key requirement is to perform 100% identity testing of ingredients used in the production of dietary supplements. For years, only expensive benchtop FT-IR/NIR spectroscopy systems had been available for nutraceutical manufacturing facilities. Systems contained moving parts requiring periodic maintenance and calibration checks and on-site analytical chemists often were required to run the systems.
Here we present an affordable NIR spectrometer system that is both portable and rugged, designed for use in nutraceutical inspection and identification. The StellarCASE-NIR system has been optimized for raw material testing and it’s portability allows it to be used at Quality Control incoming inspection locations. With a simple press of the “Analyze” button instantaneous composition and match results are displayed on your screen. We have custom tailored the SpectraWiz ID Application software for nutraceutical application and the system is delivered with an add-on reflectance probe, so it can be used to measure large quantities of sample through plastic container bags. Best yet, the system costs a fraction of other available market solutions at just $20,636. Contactus@StellarNet.us for more information.
