4. Chemistry and
Chromatography
 Our skilled and competent Chemistry group uses a wide range of
methods to test both raw materials and finished products in
accordance with compendial procedures
including but not limited to:
USP/NF, BP, Ph.Eur, JP, FCC,
ACS, AOAC, AOCS, In-house
and client supplied methods.

5. Samples Analyzed
 We analyze many types of samples including but not limited
to:
 Pharmaceutical, veterinary, cosmetics, natural health products.
 Finished products: tablets, capsules, liquids, parenterals, otic and
