Particle analysis for the pharmaceutical industry

The SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS has many years of experience in the identification of particles, deposits and foreign material that indicate deviations in the pharmaceutical production process.

Our wide range of analytical methods enables us to reveal what materials are involved and provides you with important clues about the source of the failure.

Methodology

Our comprehensive portfolio of analytical methods allows us to clearly characterize the foreign particulate matter.

• Light microscope detection and documentation of foreign material in the product
• Identification of particles using SEM/EDX, Raman, FT-IR and further methods
• Characterization of the material composition like plastics
