General description

SupraSolv® high-purity solvents for headspace gas chromatography (HS-GC) are developed particularly for the analysis of residual solvents (RS) in actives, excipients and drug products according to ICH (International Council for Harmonizaton of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use) Guideline Q3C “Impurities: Guideline for Residual Solvents”.

Application

Solvent for many hydrophobic organic compounds.

Features and Benefits

  • high application reliability due to the application test performed on every batch produced
  • application-oriented quality due to specified concentrations of residual solvents as defined by ICH
  • highly pure solvent with extremely low RS concentrations
