[Infrared spectrophotometry: a versatile analytical tool in hospital pharmacy].
Pharmacy services in healthcare facilities have increasing analytical needs, as frequently recalled by good practices guidelines (hospital pharmacy good practices, hospital pharmaceutical preparations good practices). Various analytical methods can be employed, from spot tests to the most recent chromatographic methods. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate, with two concrete examples, the versatility and pertinence of one of these analytical methods: infrared spectrophotometry. We describe two current applications, used in a hospital pharmacy service: identification of pharmaceutical raw material and dose control of cytotoxic injectable preparations.
