Scope & Deliverables

USP–NF compendial/monograph testing for drug substances and excipients, with results reported per USP method references, acceptance criteria, and CoA/summary packages.

Drug Substance (API) Testing

Identity, assay, and impurity testing for active pharmaceutical ingredients per USP-NF monographs.
  • Identity testing (IR, UV, specific tests)
  • Assay (HPLC, titration)
  • Related substances/impurities
  • Loss on drying, residue on ignition
Request API Testing

Excipient Testing

Compendial testing for pharmaceutical excipients per USP-NF/NF monographs.
  • Identity and purity testing
  • Heavy metals and elemental impurities
  • Microbial limits (coordinated)
  • Physical property testing
Request Excipient Testing

Finished Product Testing

Release and stability testing for finished dosage forms per USP-NF monographs and general chapters.
  • Content uniformity
  • Dissolution testing
  • Assay and related substances
  • Physical testing (hardness, friability)
Request Product Testing

What "Compendial" Means

Understanding USP–NF and its regulatory significance

USP–NF combines the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and the National Formulary (NF). Official USP–NF standards support consistent identity, strength, quality, and purity expectations for medicines.

The current version of USP–NF standards deemed official by USP are enforceable by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for medicines manufactured and marketed in the United States under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act).

Monographs

Specific standards for individual drug substances, dosage forms, and excipients

General Chapters

Universal test procedures and requirements (e.g., <621> Chromatography, <905> Uniformity)

Method Verification

Compendial methods are verified for suitability in your matrix/product
