Spectral analysis of sulphur 30ch and 200ch using Raman spectroscopy: An experimental study
Cindhana C and Lal MP
Introduction: Raman spectroscopy, which measures vibrational energy changes through in elastic light scattering, is increasingly used to detect structural or supra molecular features in highly diluted solutions, including homeopathic preparations. Sulphur, prepared from the amorphous mineral, its action being centrifugal-from within outward-having an elective affinity for the skin. Aim and Objectives: This study aims to understand the Raman spectral peaks of Sulphur at 30C and 200C potencies and analyze structural changes between them.
Methodology: Raman spectroscopy was performed on 30C and 200C samples across a standard vibrational range. The spectra were analyzed for peak intensity, location, and sharpness to identify consistent vibrational modes and physicochemical relevance.
Results: Both potencies exhibited eight distinguishable Raman peaks, with a prominent peak at~890 cm⁻¹. Sulphur 200CH has the “better” highest peak. Its main band at ~890 cm⁻¹ reaches ~31,200 a.u., versus ~27,800 a.u. for Sulphur 30CH about 12% higher.
