Reference Standard & Impurity

Reference standards are highly purified, well-characterized materials used to verify the identity, strength, quality, and purity of chemical, pharmaceutical, and medicinal substances.
They serve as the benchmark for analytical testing and quality control processes.

Working standards can be prepared using these reference materials. Reference standards may be sourced from official pharmacopeias such as USP (United States Pharmacopeia), EP (European Pharmacopeia), BP (British Pharmacopeia), IP (Indian Pharmacopeia), or developed in-house under strict validation protocols.

INDIAN PHARMACOPEIA

IP Reference Substances, abbreviated to IPRS (and referred to as RS in the individual monographs) are issued by the Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission (IPC). They are the official standards to be used in cases of arbitration. Secondary Standards (Working Standards) may be used for routine analysis, provided they are standardized at regular intervals against the Reference Substances

BRITISH PHARMACOPEIA

British Pharmacopoeia chemical reference substances (BPCRS) are primary standards. You should use BPCRS to perform the tests in the British Pharmacopoeia (BP) or BP (Veterinary). BPCRS are supplied in unit packs containing enough material to carry out the test procedures. BPCRS are tested in our laboratory to make sure they are suitable for their use.

EUROPEAN PHARMACOPOEIA

Panacea ChemFarmacia  supplies chemical reference substances (CRS), herbal reference standards (HRS) and biological reference preparations (BRP) as well as reference spectra for the tests and assays to be carried out in accordance with the official methods prescribed in the European Pharmacopoeia
