“…PAT allows to monitor and control processes efficiently and provides means for real-time release testing or in-process prediction of product quality attributes (Jiang et al, 2017;Markl et al, 2020). Optical spectroscopic techniques such as ultraviolet/visible (UV/ Vis), Infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy have been shown to enable real-time monitoring across a wide range of pharmaceutical processes (Bakeev, 2005;Feidl et al, 2019;Trampuž et al, 2020;Romann et al, 2022;Rolinger et al, 2023). In combination with multivariate data analysis, these techniques are, e.g., suitable for quantifying product and impurity species from process data (Capito et al, 2013;Brestrich et al, 2016, Brestrich et al, 2018Rüdt et al, 2017a), identify unknown sample compositions (Liu et al, 2017;Wegner and Hubbuch, 2022), or determine product modifications (Li et al, 2018;Zhang et al, 2019a;Sanden et al, 2019) owing to their fast and non-invasive characteristics and high selectivity in protein analysis.…”
