Product Offerings
Pharmaceutical Residual
Solvent Standards
Guidelines set by the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), United States
Pharmacopeia (USP) and European Pharmacopeia (EP) mandate manufacturing solvents used in the
pharmaceutical industry be regulated due to their toxic and/or environmentally hazardous nature.
SPEX CertiPrep offers the highest quality Pharmaceutical Residual Solvent Certified Reference
Materials for use by the pharmaceutical industry.
Biodiesel Standards
Biodiesel has emerged as the frontrunner in the alternative fuel industry. Biodiesel is created by
esterification of oils. To meet the demands of this industry, SPEX CertiPrep offers Biodiesel Certified
Reference Materials designed to save time and money by eliminating the need to prepare in-house
standards.
Pesticide Standards
Human and environmental pesticide exposure over the past few decades has ledto increased
monitoring and oversight of these chemicals. Analytical laboratories require accurate pesticide
standards to measure the pesticide levels in the environment. At SPEX CertiPrep, we help
streamline your testing process by creating pesticide standards to suit your analytical needs.
Bisphenol-A (BPA) and
Phthalate Standards
Bisphenol-A (BPA) and phthalates can be found in many consumer products including children’s
products. Since studies have linked these chemicals to serious health and developmental
concerns, regulations have been enacted to ban or restrict these chemicals in certain products.
SPEX CertiPrep has been involved from the beginning in creating standards and developing
methodology for these compounds. We proudly offer a full line of BPA and phthalate standards for
the analytical testing industry.
US EPA Drinking Water
Methods
The US EPA has created many methods to safeguard the environment and human health. Some of
the most important of these methods test drinking water for a multitude of potential contaminants
including nitrosamines (Method 521), organic compounds (Method 525), selected pesticides and
flame-retardant compounds (Method 527), explosives and related compounds (Method 529), and
chloroacetanilide and other acetamide herbicide degradates (Method 535). SPEX CertiPrep offers
standards for use with all the current EPA methodologies.
LCMS
The technique of LC/MS has become an important analytical tool in a laboratories’ arsenal. Many
LCMS scientists have had to settle for standards originally designed for other analytical techniques.
SPEX CertiPrep has many stock standards designed for and tested by LCMS! From catalog LCMS
standards to custom mixes we can manufacture standards intended for LCMS use.
QuEChERS
The field of agricultural pesticide testing has changed rapidly in the last few years. The once new
and novel extraction and clean-up methods called QuEChERS has become a standard methodology
in the laboratory. SPEX CertiPrep offers many products to support your laboratories QuEChERS
methods from extraction and dispersive clean-up kits to internal standards and pesticides
standards. Our kits support both the AOAC and EN methodologies.
Cannabis
In analytical chemistry, it is rare for a totally new field of study to come into the industry. The past
two years have seen the rise of just such a new analytical field – Cannabis testing. As this new
industry emerges standards are needed to ensure potency, develop medicinal profiles, identify
strains and product lines, monitor environmental contaminants and measure pesticide levels. SPEX
CertiPrep is a leader in providing standards to this new industry with Certified Reference Materials
and standards for potency, terpene content, residual solvents and pesticide contamination in
cannabis products.
ECS
ECS specializes in single and multi-component Certifi ed Reference Materials, designed for GC/MS,
for the analysis of Volatile and Semi-Volatile Organics. These mixes are designed to be utilized with
today’s EPA Methods for 624/8240, 8260, 524.2 and 625/8270.
