BOC Sciences can provide comprehensive organic element analysis services for companies. Using USP, EP or other analysis methods, our services comply with global regulations such as those in the US, EU, and Japan. Pharmaceutical elemental analysis is very important for quality control and impurity control. Elemental pollutants have always been a key issue in drug development and production. Understanding the element composition of raw materials, active drug ingredients, excipients or preparations helps to ensure product quality and purity.
Elemental analysis, either qualitatively or quantitatively, is a chemical analysis method for studying the composition of elements in organic compounds. It determines the elemental composition and percentage of a compound by a chemical reaction. The former is the elemental qualitative analysis and the latter elemental quantitative analysis. After a complete elemental analysis, the experimental formula of the compound can be calculated. Knowing the molecular weight of the compound supplemented by other methods known as the structural formula.
Our Elemental Analysis Testing Techniques are as follows:
- Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES)
- Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS)
- X-Ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF)
- Ion selective electrodes
- Ion chromatography (isocratic and gradient systems)
- Karl-Fischer water determination
- Micro analytical combustion methods (C, H, N, O, S, halogens, residue on ignition)
- Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX)
- Total organic carbon (TOC)
