Element provides residual solvents testing services in conformity with USP <467> and ICH Q3C methods.

Solvents are often necessary for the manufacture of drug products, as they can improve yield and solubility and enhance crystallization. However, depending on their toxicity and concentration, they can be harmful to the patient. Determination of residual solvents is critical to ensure that pharmaceutical raw materials and finished products are safe.
