Tests we perform
From potency and purity to microbiology and contaminant screening, we offer a full range of analytical services.
Potency & Purity
Quantitative Analysis (HPLC)
$120 per compoundMeasures the exact concentration of the active compound in a sample and reports its purity as a percentage of the label claim.
- Reports measured amount versus label claim (mg, mg/mL, or % w/w).
- Identifies under-dosing and over-dosing.
- Ideal for peptides, small molecules, and finished products.
Method
High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC-UV/DAD)
Turnaround
2-4 business days
Purity & Impurity Profile
$180 per sampleQuantifies the main compound and detects related substances or impurities present in the sample.
- Reports total purity percentage.
- Lists detected impurities above the reporting threshold.
- Recommended for raw material qualification.
Method
HPLC with area-percent impurity quantification
Turnaround
3-5 business days
Multi-Compound Blend Analysis
$145 per compoundQuantifies each active ingredient in blended or multi-component products.
- Reports individual concentrations for each active.
- Ideal for blends and combination products.
- Volume-based pricing for large panels.
Method
HPLC with multi-analyte calibration
Turnaround
4-6 business days
Identity
Identity Confirmation (LC-MS)
$170 per compoundConfirms the molecular identity of a compound by matching its mass and fragmentation pattern.
- Verifies that the sample contains the labeled substance.
- Detects substitutions and mislabeled products.
- Provides molecular weight confirmation.
Method
Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS)
Turnaround
3-5 business days
Microbiology
Sterility Testing
$290 per sampleDetermines whether a sample is free from viable microorganisms.
- Required for injectable and sterile products.
- Detects bacterial and fungal contamination.
- Pass/Fail result with incubation records.
Method
Membrane filtration / direct inoculation (USP <71>)
Turnaround
14 business days
Bacterial Endotoxin (LAL)
$180 per sampleDetects and quantifies bacterial endotoxins that can cause adverse reactions.
- Reports endotoxin units per mL or per mg (EU/mL, EU/mg).
- Critical for parenteral and injectable products.
- Compared against acceptance limits.
Method
Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) kinetic assay
Turnaround
5-7 business days
Contaminants
Heavy Metals Screening (ICP-MS)
$105 per sampleScreens for toxic heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury.
- Quantifies metals down to parts-per-billion (ppb).
- Compared against USP <232>/<233> limits.
- Recommended for consumables and raw materials.
Method
Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS)
Turnaround
5-7 business days
Residual Solvents (GC)
$170 per sampleDetects leftover manufacturing solvents that may remain in the final product.
- Identifies Class 1, 2, and 3 solvents.
- Reports concentration in ppm.
- Compared against ICH Q3C limits.
Method
Gas Chromatography (GC-FID/MS headspace)
Turnaround
5-7 business days
