Porous Silica Creates New Applications and Markets

Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical companies have identified product identification (PI) as a major focus to identify and deter counterfeiting and product diversion. This is done through track and trace technologies. To date, the majority of the PI has been performed at the package level using barcodes, holograms and other proprietary security features of the bottle or printed labels. However, because the packaging has proven to be relatively easy to counterfeit, there is great interest in using a PI technology at the dose (tablet, capsule) level. For dose-level PI, companies have relied on composition measurement technologies to determine the item’s composition.
