General description

SupraSolv® high-purity solvents are specially designed for headspace-gas chromatography (HS-GC) for the analysis of residual solvents (RS) in active pharmaceutical ingredients, excipients and drug products according to Ph. Eur and USP. The concentrations of RS for high purity solvents are specified following ICH (International Council for Harmonizaton of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use) Guideline Q3C “Impurities: Guideline for Residual Solvents”.

Application

Intended for sensitive detection of analytes of ICH classes 1, 2 and 3 in residue and environmental analysis:

Every residual solvent of class 1 acc. ICH ≤ 1 μg/g
Every residual solvent of class 2 acc. ICH ≤ 10 μg/g
Every residual solvent of class 3 acc. ICH ≤ 50 μg/g

Other Notes

Explore various lab safety accessories and equipment for safe handling of solvents to increase your safety level from the first usage.
