General description

This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.

Benzhydrol is a commonly used precursor in the production of pharmaceutical drugs, such as antihistamines, antihypertensives, and antiallergens.

Application

Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.

Analysis Note
