Your needs : to characterize an unknown substance in your pharmaceutical products

Troubleshooting is the process implemented to characterize an unknown substance in your medication and to determine its origins.

During the production process of medication, it is possible that said medication could undergo unwanted changes (degradations, pollutions, leaching…) which will impact its chemical composition.

The presence of an unknown substance can therefore lead to the medication no longer complying with standards or negatively impact its properties.

Characterization of an unknown substance found in medication calls for specific analytical techniques and requires the know-how and skill of a laboratory specialized in troubleshooting substances.
