Identification of impurities

Identification of impurities

Particle analysis

Particulate contamination of drugs and medical devices by organic and inorganic particles can lead to significant health risks for patients. Using highly sensitive analytical methods, OFI identifies the causes, whether in incoming goods inspection, in production or in the end product – and thus supports you in eliminating the impurities.

Detect, identify and eliminate contaminants

We use sophisticated analytical techniques to detect, quantify and identify particulate contaminants. This also includes the testing of such low volumes down to 0.5ml, which are typical e.g. for expensive injectables of biopharmaceutical products.

Whether drugs are in development, in the process of approval or already on the market: As an independent partner with GMP certification, OFI offers you internationally recognized services.
