A new infrared spectral library of controlled and noncontrolled drug standards using internal reflection spectroscopy

J Forensic Sci. 2000 Jul;45(4):876-81.

Abstract

An infrared spectral library containing 455 controlled and noncontrolled solid drug standards was generated using internal reflection spectroscopy. All attenuated total reflection (ATR) spectra were obtained with small diamond internal reflection elements. ATR spectra will have minor variations from transmission spectra commonly found in commercial infrared libraries.
