Core Analytical Testing Equipment
Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometers
UPLC-MS/MS
Ultra-performance liquid chromatography paired with tandem mass spectrometry separates complex samples and identifies compounds through their molecular signatures. This technology supports precise measurement of active ingredients, impurity assessment, and detailed analysis of multi-component formulations.
ICP-MS
Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry detects and quantifies trace metals at very low concentrations. Our testing measures elemental impurities in raw materials and finished products, providing clear data on heavy metal content and product quality.
Sterility and Endotoxin
BACT/ALERT 3D
Automated incubation and continuous monitoring detect microbial growth by tracking carbon dioxide produced by microorganisms. This system supports growth-based testing for microbial contamination, helping assess the microbiological quality of submitted samples.
Microplate Readers
Sensitive fluorescence measurements power our ENDOZYME® II and EndoLISA® endotoxin assays. Both use recombinant factor C to quantify bacterial endotoxins, while EndoLISA adds a selective capture-and-wash step to help reduce interference from complex sample ingredients.
Other Advanced Solutions
Environmental Chambers
Controlled temperature and humidity create consistent conditions for product stability studies. Combined with analytical testing at scheduled intervals, these chambers help evaluate how storage conditions affect active content, purity, and other quality attributes over time.
Osmometer
Freezing-point osmometry measures the total concentration of dissolved particles in a solution. This analysis provides osmolality data to support formulation development, batch consistency, and evaluation of aqueous products against established specifications.
