Laboratory analysis of heavy metals
Your needs : to ensure that your products are comply with regulations regarding heavy metals
Certain heavy metals are indispensable in industry (Lead, Chromium…) however, others are particularly toxic (Mercury, Titanium…) and so their use is highly regulated in sectors such as the food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.
In light of this, industrial companies are required to inspect and analyze the heavy metal contents of their finished products and raw materials.
Our solution : to provide our analytical services and technical facilities adapted to your products in order to detect the presence of heavy metals
FILAB provides its expertise and cutting-edge analytical fleet (ICP-MS, ICP-AES, AAS, Mercury analyzer / amalgamator ) for elemental analysis of heavy metals (Lead, Mercury, Arsenic, Cadmium, Nickle, Antimony…) and for heavy metal determination on all kinds of materials.
For over 20 years our laboratory has been providing analytical services and performing elemental analyses.
ome examples of services FILAB can provide :
Screening and determination of heavy metals using ICP-MS or ICP-AES in chemical matrices : treatment baths, materials, raw materials…
Quantitative analysis of heavy metals in cosmetic products using ICP-MS : lipstick, mascara, eyeliner…
Inorganic analysis
Determination of heavy metals or trace amounts of catalysts in packaging materials
Mercury analysis using an amalgamator
ICP-MS heavy metal analysis of raw materials used in cosmetics : natural mica, sericites, metallic oxides (Titanium oxide, Zinc oxide, Iron oxides…), talc, clay…
Elemental impurity analysis of pharmaceutical products using ICP in accordance with USP 233 (ICH Q3D standard)
Determination and analysis of Chromium VI
Metallic impurity analysis of Medical Devices and of cosmetic products
Analytical development and validation using ICP-MS or ICP-AES
