Intertek provides GMP compliant screening of specified impurities in heparin active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) by 1H NMR and capillary electrophoresis (CE).

The heparin analytical techniques, carried out to FDA recommendations, can rapidly and effectively screen for the presence of a specific impurity highlighted as a safety concern by the FDA in February 2008. It is recommended that both screening techniques be used for heparin API prior to batch release but can also be used for finished product QC applications. The NMR technique employs a 500MHz instrument and these services are available via Intertek’s GMP Pharmaceutical Laboratories.
