This whitepaper explores the root causes of poor proficiency testing performance and offers practical, expert-backed solutions—supported by survey data, case studies, and LGC’s PORTAL platform—to drive continuous improvement in laboratory quality.
Given the widespread availability of supplements in Europe and the USA through shops and online retailers, combined with the significant safety and quality concerns, this whitepaper explores shortcomings in US and EU regulations.
In this article, we examine the growing problem of food process contaminants in modern diets - and how these harmful chemicals are formed during food preparation and manufacturing.
LGC Standards’ rigorous approach to traceability and uncertainty – using a robust and accurate HP ICP-OES method developed by NIST – means that you can rely on our Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) for elemental analysis.
Dr Kelly Cheshire talks to us about the vital importance of optimising reference materials and calibration strategies for PFAS testing laboratories – and how to resolve analytical challenges like adsorption, matrix effects, peak resolution, and stability.
This poster was developed in response to limited regulatory guidance on impurity reference standards, highlighting gaps in ICH guidelines and proposing practical approaches for accurate impurity quantification.
This whitepaper examines the potential of smart nanoparticles in drug delivery, highlighting expert insights, clinical trials, and regulatory milestones.
This poster presents a case study in which LGC collaborated with Waters to develop a reliable UPLC/MS/MS method for quantifying trace levels of the example NDSRI contaminant N-nitroso-sertraline in sertraline drug substance and drug product.
LGC provides a wide range of ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 reference materials and research chemicals for Cathinone and Nitazene testing through our LoGiCal, Lipomed, TRC brands, and trusted partners.
LGC Dr Ehrenstorfer now offers microplastic reference materials to support environmental research and testing, including common types like polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon, and polyester fibres.
LGC Standards’ colour reference materials that are manufactured and tested according to USP and EP ensure accuracy, consistency, and full traceability – so you can test with confidence and meet pharmacopoeial requirements every time.
