At Microchem Laboratory, we are dedicated to providing a comprehensive range of analytical testing services, bolstered by our state-of-the-art instrumentation and a team of seasoned scientists. Our commitment to precision and reliability ensures that we meet the diverse needs of industries ranging from pharmaceuticals to personal care products.
For OTC drug and dietary supplement manufacturers, ensuring the identity, strength, and purity of each ingredient is critical for both regulatory compliance and consumer safety. Accurate analytical testing verifies that active ingredients meet label claims, contaminants are within acceptable limits, and formulations remain consistent from batch to batch.
Our laboratory is equipped with advanced instruments, including:
Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR): This technique identifies chemical bonds within molecules by producing an infrared absorption spectrum, essential for characterizing various substances.
Gas Chromatography (GC): GC is employed to separate and analyze compounds that can be vaporized without decomposition, making it invaluable for assessing the purity and composition of volatile substances.
High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC): HPLC separates, identifies, and quantifies components in liquid samples, ensuring the quality and consistency of products.
Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS): A highly sensitive technique used to detect trace elements and isotopes, crucial for ensuring products are free from harmful heavy metals.
UV-Vis Spectrophotometer: Ideal for analyzing nucleic acids, proteins, and colored compounds, this instrument measures the absorbance and transmittance of UV and visible light through a sample.
By integrating these sophisticated instruments into our testing protocols, we can address complex analytical challenges with accuracy and efficiency. Our comprehensive capabilities enable us to support product development, quality control, regulatory compliance, and troubleshooting across various industries.
