Farmakopéanalyser

DB Lab har mere end 25 års erfaring i udførelse af farmakopéanalyser. 

At udføre analyser efter de forskellige farmakopéer kræver specialiseret viden og udstyr – DB Labs kernekompetencer.

DB Lab udfører farmakopéanalyser enten som fuld farmakopéanalyse eller efter udvalgte dele af monografien efter aftale.

Herunder findes en udførlig liste over farmakopéanalyser, som DB Lab rutinemæssigt udfører, fra den europæiske farmakopé (Ph. Eur.). Under menupunkterne til venstre er et udpluk af disse farmakopéanalyser beskrevet i detaljer. Alternativt kan søgefunktionen øverst på siden benyttes til at finde specifik information om enkelte farmakopéanalyser.

 

FAKTA

En farmakopé er en autoriseret fortegnelse over lægemidler med fastsættelser af standarder for råvarer og fremstillingsmetoder samt for afprøvning af og kvalitetskrav til såvel aktive pharmaceutiske ingredienser (API’er) som hjælpestoffer.

De mest anvendte farmakopéer er:

  • Ph. Eur – Den europæiske farmakopé
  • USP – Den amerikanske farmakopé
  • JP – Den japanske farmakopé
  • BP – Den britiske farmakopé

Den Europæiske Farmakopé (Ph. Eur.) er stiftet i 1964 og er i dag den gældende farmakopé i 31 lande, herunder Danmark.
