Team of Analytical Research carries out studies on the full analytical characterization of chemical and pharmaceutical substances as well as analytical expertise for various pharmaceutical forms (tablets, capsules, solutions, eye drops in the form of solutions and suspensions, emulsions and ointments). On the basis of the conducted research, documentation is prepared that meets the requirements of committees creating drug quality criteria, including the International Conference on Harmonization of Drug Registration Requirements (ICH) and European and American Registration Offices.
The Research Analytics team cooperates with scientific and industrial institutions, carrying out analytical work as part of scientific projects. The results of research work are presented in national and international journals, as well as at scientific conferences.
Scope of activity
Expertise, development and validation of methods in the field of:
- determination of the chemical and enantiomeric purity and assay of chemical and pharmaceutical substances (HPLC, UHPLC with UV / VIS detection, PDA, Corona CAD, MS)
- determination of complete impurity profiles including genotoxic impurities
- studies on the compatibility of the active substance with excipients at the stage of development research
- residual solvents analysis (GC-FID, GC-HS, GC-MS),
- determination of assay by potentiometric titrations
- determination of trace elements (ICP-MS)
- determination of water content using the Karl Fischer volumetric and coulometric titrations,
