Quality & Analytics
This page describes how COAgrade builds its specifications and which analytical methods underlie the figures shown on each product page.
HPLC purity testing
High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separates the main component from accompanying impurities and produces the area-percent figure shown on the product page.
Mass-spectrometry identity
Mass spectrometry (MS) compares the observed mass of the molecule with the theoretical molecular weight derived from the stated molecular formula, confirming the identity of the material.
Appearance and homogeneity
A visual inspection records colour, physical state, and homogeneity of the batch, and is noted on the certificate of analysis.
Batch documentation for blends and formulations
For multi-component blends and proprietary formulations, analytical evaluation refers to the composition and acceptance criteria of the individual batch, since a single CAS number does not apply.
- 01
Specification
Identity, molecular formula, molecular weight, and CAS number are listed per product where they apply.
- 02
Analytics
HPLC purity testing and a mass-spectrometry identity check form the basis of the published figures.
- 03
Documentation
The batch-specific certificate of analysis is provided on request for the relevant product.
