Overview

Our analytical platforms provide the foundation for quality assurance across all LLRI activities. Every compound we synthesize, study, or provide as a research material is characterized using validated analytical methods that ensure identity, purity, and stability.

Rigorous analytical chemistry is essential for reproducible research. Without confident knowledge of what you're testing, experimental results cannot be meaningfully interpreted.

Capabilities

Reversed-phase HPLC with UV/Vis and fluorescence detection
LC-MS for molecular weight confirmation and impurity identification
High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) for exact mass determination
UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy
Karl Fischer water content analysis
Amino acid analysis for peptide content determination

Quality Applications

Release Testing

Complete characterization of every batch before use in research or release as a research material.

Stability Studies

Ongoing monitoring of compound integrity under various storage conditions over time.

Method Development

Creating and validating new analytical methods for novel compounds and applications.

Method Validation

All analytical methods used for quality control are validated according to ICH guidelines. We assess specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, range, and robustness before deploying any method in production use.

Instruments are calibrated on regular schedules, and all calibration and maintenance records are maintained as part of our quality management system. This ensures that analytical results are reliable and comparable across time.
