Impurity Analysis
Identify, quantify, and characterize impurities in your materials. Xinbodi Laboratories specializes in impurity analysis, using advanced techniques to detect contaminants or undesired substances in a wide range of products including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, polymers, and consumer goods.
What is Impurity Analysis?
Impurity analysis is the scientific process of identifying and quantifying unwanted substances in a product or material. Impurities can arise from manufacturing processes, degradation, contamination, or impurities in raw materials. Our impurity analysis services are designed to detect trace contaminants, unknown additives, and unexpected foreign substances that could impact product quality, safety, or performance.
Using state-of-the-art instrumentation and techniques, we provide actionable data that helps optimize formulations, improve process control, and ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations.
Why is Impurity Analysis Important?
Impurity analysis is critical in ensuring the safety, quality, and compliance of products across various industries. The presence of unwanted substances can lead to:
- Reduced product quality: Impurities can affect performance and reduce effectiveness
- Regulatory non-compliance: Failure to meet regulatory limits can result in legal and financial penalties
- Contamination risks: Impurities may pose risks to consumer safety, especially in food, pharmaceuticals, and medical products
- Increased production costs: Detecting and addressing impurities early helps avoid costly product recalls or rework
Applications of Impurity Analysis
Impurity analysis has broad applications across various industries:
- Pharmaceuticals: Detecting active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) impurities, residual solvents, and degradation products
- Chemicals: Identifying contaminants in raw materials, intermediates, and final products
- Polymers & Plastics: Analyzing additives, plasticizers, and degradation products in polymer formulations
- Food & Beverages: Ensuring compliance with safety regulations and identifying food contaminants
- Environmental: Monitoring pollutants and contaminants in air, water, and soil samples
