The use of Raman spectroscopy in food analysis is on the rise. Raman microscopy, in particular, is highly effective for analyzing samples with high moisture content, which are challenging to measure with infrared spectroscopy. It is also suitable for analyses requiring high spatial resolution. In the following examples, Raman microscopy is used to investigate how the spatial distribution of fat and moisture in chocolate, cheese, and butter affects their texture.
