Non-Volatile Organic Impurities
Identify and quantify organic impurities in drug substances and drug products
Impurity profiling is a critical quality control step in the production of pharmceuticals and biopharmaceuticals. This process is carefully regulated by bodies such as ICH & US FDA. ICH guidelines for impurities states that each impurity must be investigated with respect to both physicochemical and safety aspects. Structural characterization, quantification and reporting must be performed using suitable analytical procedures. Impurity profiling of organic impurities is typically performed using liquid chromatography (HPLC), mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR).
Confident, unambiguous elemental composition and substructural information can be provided by our Orbitrap-based mass spectrometry systems, together with advanced informatics capabilities and libraries.
