Veterinary Tablet Content Testing
Ensuring the quality and efficacy of veterinary pharmaceuticals is critical to the health and safety of animals. Veterinary tablet content testing involves a series of laboratory analyses that ensure the active ingredients within these tablets are present in the correct concentrations as per the approved specifications.
The process begins with proper sample preparation, which includes disintegration and dissolution under controlled conditions. This ensures accurate measurement of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). Once prepared, the samples undergo a range of analytical techniques such as High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), or Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to determine the precise concentration of the API.
Quality control is paramount in this sector. Veterinarians and animal health professionals rely on these tests not only for therapeutic efficacy but also to ensure that there are no harmful contaminants or impurities present. This service ensures compliance with international standards such as ISO 3696, ICH Q7A, and EU GMP guidelines.
The importance of accurate content testing cannot be overstated. A deviation from the specified concentration can lead to underdosage or overdosage, both of which pose significant risks to animal health. Underdosing may result in ineffective treatment while overdosing could cause adverse effects such as toxicity and organ damage.
Our laboratory uses state-of-the-art instrumentation that adheres to the latest standards for precision and accuracy. This includes automated HPLC systems capable of detecting even trace amounts of API, ensuring reliable results every time. We also employ experienced analysts who understand not only the technical aspects but also the broader implications of their work.
The testing process is conducted in a cleanroom environment to prevent contamination from external sources. This ensures that the results are as accurate and consistent as possible. Our team follows strict protocols throughout each step, ensuring data integrity and reproducibility.
