Designed for lab-quality results in non-traditional testing scenarios, such as materials inspection at the loading dock, MIRA P is a vast improvement over traditional raw material identification and verification (RMID) methods. MIRA P verifies the quality and consistency of materials quickly and easily, so manufacturers can save time and resources. Metrohm Raman automates the process from method building to model verification and instant, onsite sampling of materials.

Fast results in seconds
MIRA P collects and processes data, performs statistical analyses, and gives you a clear "Pass" or "Fail" result in seconds.
The instrument calculates the result on the basis of multivariate probabilistic algorithms to verify the identity of raw materials. This approach is much more accurate and reliable than traditional HQI spectral matching.
Safe sampling of sensitive materials
Orbital Raster Scan (ORS) is a unique feature of all systems from Metrohm Raman. ORS rasters the sampling laser over a large area to increase the amount of information collected with each scan. ORS achieves an outstanding resolution, even for heterogeneous samples and reduces the potential for sample degradation or burning.

Move sampling from the lab to the loading dock
Implementation of handheld Raman in RMID, where the majority of materials testing is performed in the receiving area, is a significant departure from classical methods.
In addition, automated workflows are available for non-technical users. This enables anyone to analyze a sample fast, safely, and accurately.

MIRA Cal P: dedicated software for full confidence in compliance
With MIRA Cal P, Metrohm Raman is dedicated to offering the simplest, most efficient, and accurate use of MIRA P for RMID. The software comes with features that help to ensure secure and well-documented procedures in compliance with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 regulations, such as complete reports and audit trail functions.
The new Calibrate/Verify Accessory now provides a two-part verification of the system. First, the ASTM method E1840 for Toluene-Acetonitrile is used to achieve the best possible wavenumber calibration across the entire range. Second, NIST-Traceable polystyrene is used to verify wavenumber accuracy and provides worry-free conformity with USP 1120 and EP 2.2.48.
