Identification by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR)
Each material has a unique infrared fingerprint that can be used to identify them in comparison with a reference standard. Our FTIR equipment can determine if two materials are, in fact, the same. This can also confirm if the active ingredient in some finished drug products are truly present.
Identification by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC)
Determine the identification of a material and the active ingredient of a product through TLC as per the monograph in the official compendia.
Water Determination by Karl Fisher (KF)
Measure the water content of materials and products through the Karl Fisher apparatus, one of the most commonly used titrimetric procedure to determine the amount of water in a substance.
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Testing
Identify an analyte or an active component in a given product as well as identify an unknown material against a known standard (qualitative analysis). This can also be used to determine the amount of the analyte/active component in a material or the amount of one or more active materials in a product (quantitative analysis). Impurity testing can also be performed using HPLC.
Gas Chromatography (GC) Testing
Also used for the quantitative and qualitative testing of materials and products but more specifically used for samples that are volatile or can be converted into volatile samples.
UV/Vis Spectrophotometer Testing
A more conventional way of performing the qualitative and quantitative analysis of an unknown sample.
Dissolution testing – Dissolution Profile
Our lab is capable of performing dissolution tests and dissolution profiles as required by the regulatory agency using the media as per WHO and BFAD Standards.
