InfraTrac uses infrared spectroscopy to distinguish counterfeits. We prepare your sample (powder, pill, or liquid), and test it in a machine that graphs its components’ responses to light. The lab version of the machine is the size of a breadbox, with a standard desktop computer as its interface. A handheld version is also available. Either version can be operated by a technician without any lab background.

Fast and decisive. In as little as 0.1 second, your sample is analyzed, and then compared to a database of stored information. If it does not match a known batch, it isn’t legitimate. It’s a counterfeit.

Accurate and easy to use. InfraTrac’s results are highly precise, and can distinguish brands, dates of manufacture, batches, improper handling, and adulterants. Tag your substance using InfraTrac’s patent-pending system, and you can track your materials accurately throughout the supply chain. Use a small change in the formulation of inactive ingredients as your taggant. It’s fast, inexpensive, and fits your current manufacturing process.

Pharmaceuticals

InfraTrac uses covert near-infrared spectral fingerprints, embedded into each lot of a pharmaceutical formulation via FDA SUPAC level 1 composition changes – i.e., using allowable excipient changes, encode a unique fingerprint into each product lot:

• No external taggant needed
• Minimal regulatory burden
• In the EU, falls within the 10% allowable batch-to-batch variability for excipients

Counterfeit Parts

InfraTrac can tag paint, too, so you and your distributors can quickly determine which auto parts, for example, are yours and which are fakes.

Hazardous Waste

Tag your chemicals so you know which emissions are yours and which are not, with rock-solid proof.
