General description

Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards. Propyl Acetate is the propyl ester of acetic acid. It is a volatile component of Beaufort cheese, apples, bananas, nectarines and Concord grape juice. It is widely used as a printing ink solvent and finds applications as a solvent for chlorinated rubber, heat reactive phenolics, cellulose nitrate, etc.

Application

These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

Analysis Note

These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP and EP primary standards, where they are available.
