Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a fast, non-destructive and cheap method of spectral analysis that gains its importance. Nowadays, the applications of this analytical method are very broad: It is useful as a powerful tool in pharmaceutical industry, food industry as well as in the field of law enforcement, i.e., in identification of counterfeit medicines or quick identification of drugs of abuse, forensic medicine and many more. NIR spectroscopy was recognized as a leading analytical method of process analytical technology (PAT) applied within innovative approaches to the pharmaceutical quality assurance systems. This contribution is focused on qualitative and quantitative applications of NIR spectroscopy in pharmaceutical analysis and related areas. However, examples of PAT monitoring of granulation processes during manufacturing of solid drug formulations and the utilization of NIR spectroscopy within Quality-by-Design approach to specify critical quality parameters of active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients is mentioned as well.
