Pharmaceutical laboratories summarise actual and potential impurities that are most likely to arise during the synthesis, purification, and storage of the drug substance and excipients. The finished dosage forms summarize the degradation products observed during manufacture and stability studies of the drug product, including impurities arising from the interaction with excipients and/or the immediate container closure system.
All the studies conducted to characterize any impurity at a level greater than the identification threshold – in any batch manufactured by the proposed commercial process – should be identified. In addition, any degradation product observed in stability studies at recommended storage conditions at a level greater than the identification threshold should be identified to guarantee the safety of medicines.
We provide the tools and processes you need to take control of your organic impurities testing for drug substances, drug products, and excipients.

Clarus 590 GC
If your lab performs routine impurities testing analyses, you need a flexible, rugged GC instrument that can meet your testing requirements. The Clarus® 590 gas chromatograph is a fully automated GC system that delivers capabilities that enable high performance, flexibility, and stability. Along with proven strengths of our GC platform, the Clarus 590 GC features a new high-performance capillary injector with decreased reactivity, and autosampler technology that delivers multiple options for liquid injection, headspace, and SPME in one system.
- A wide range of injectors, including programmable and on-column
- All common detectors, including ECD, TCD, and FPD
- Multilanguage touchscreen operation
- Microchannel (Swafer™) technology expands analytical capabilities with complete independence of the column from injectors or detectors
- Capillary injector to ensure optimal recoveries and increased sensitivity
- Programmable pneumatic control (PPC) for greater system stability, even with extreme changes in temperature

Clarus 690 GC
When the highest levels of throughput are critical to your operations, choose the Clarus® 690 gas chromatograph. Its patented high-performance oven delivers the fastest heat-up and cool-down of any oven in the business, and that means shorter injection-to-injection times, and the ability to run more samples per day. Plus, the oven’s twin-wall design with concentric air exhaust provides exceptional cooling to near-ambient temperatures without resorting to liquid cryogen – critical for analysis of organic compounds.
- Fastest combined heat-up and cool-down rate of any conventional over to enhance productivity, efficiency and throughput.
- A wide range of injectors, including programmable and on-column
- All common detectors, including ECD, TCD, and FPD
- Multilanguage touchscreen operation
- Microchannel (Swafer™) technology expands analytical capabilities with complete independence of the column from injectors or detectors
- Capillary injector to ensure optimal recoveries and increased sensitivity
- Programmable pneumatic control (PPC) for greater system stability, even with extreme changes in temperature
