You wish to carry out the determination of the Sucrose (CAS No. 57-50-1) content in your products

Mastering a key component to ensure the conformity and quality of your formulations

Sucrose, a sugar widely used for its humectant, texturizing, and stabilizing properties in cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations, may require precise dosing to meet product quality standards, and R&D process requirements. In some products, its dosage is also essential to ensure the homogeneity and efficacy of the finished product.

At Filab Laboratory, we support manufacturers in the Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical sectors with the reliable and rigorous measurement of sucrose at every stage of their projects: development, market launch, quality control, and non-conformity resolution.

Our technical resources for the determination of Sucrose (CAS No. 57-50-1)

HPLC

To separate and quantify Sucrose from the other ingredients in the formula

GC-MS

To identify and quantify Sucrose

LC-MSMS

To detect and quantify traces of Sucrose or its degradation products

FTIR

For qualitative analysis on samples of pure Sucrose or in the raw material

Our Sucrose (CAS No. 57-50-1) analysis services

Analysis and quantification of sucrose as an active ingredient or excipient

Stability study and degradation study: monitoring the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose under different storage conditions

Analytical validation: development of specific methods adapted to your complex matrices

Container-content compatibility study: verification of the absence of interaction between your sugar solutions and their packaging (glass, polymers)

Compliance checks with Pharmacopoeias (European, American) for the release of batches of raw materials

Non-conformity study: analysis of undesirable crystallization, changes in texture or color in your formulations

Analysis of undesirable substances: testing for heavy metals, solvent residues, or organic impurities in your sucrose sources

FILAB meets your needs for Sucrose (CAS No. 57-50-1) determination

Why measure sucrose in your formulations?

Sucrose content measurement addresses several key challenges:

  • Product quality control : ensuring that each batch meets projected specifications.
  • Performance assurance: verifying the physicochemical effects associated with sugar content.
  • Formulation optimization: adjusting the composition to ensure expected stability, texture, and functionality.
  • Diagnosis of non-conformity or process deviations: understanding and resolving analytical or performance discrepancies.

Inaccurate or insufficiently documented measurement can lead to formulation errors, uncontrolled product variability, or increased quality/production risks.

Why choose FILAB for the determination of Sucrose (CAS No. 57-50-1)?

For over ten years, the FILAB laboratory has developed extensive expertise in chemical analysis. Our laboratory boasts state-of-the-art analytical equipment and highly skilled personnel to provide services that meet your compliance requirements for the analysis of Sucrose (CAS No. 57-50-1), on your matrix (tablets, liquid, powders).

FAQ

What is sucrose (CAS No. 57-50-1)?

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. It is widely used as an excipient, texturizing agent, humectant, or organoleptic enhancer in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products.

In what types of products is sucrose used?

Sucrose is found in:

  • cosmetic formulations (skincare, hair care, toothpaste, hygiene products),
  • pharmaceutical forms (syrups, oral solutions, tablets, coatings),
  • products combining several sugary excipients or polyols.
Is it possible to measure sucrose in complex matrices?

Yes. Cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations can contain numerous excipients (polyols, preservatives, polymers, surfactants). The analytical methods used allow for the reliable separation and quantification of sucrose, even in the presence of interferences.

Can sucrose be distinguished from other sugars?

Yes. Chromatographic methods make it possible to distinguish sucrose from other sugars (glucose, fructose, lactose, etc.) and to ensure individual quantification.

Why entrust the sucrose assay to the Filab laboratory?

At the Filab laboratory, sucrose analysis relies on:

  • recognized analytical expertise,
  • analytical equipment adapted to complex matrices,
  • expert interpretation of results, going beyond the simple numerical value,
  • tailor-made support, from analysis to diagnosis.
