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. L-Histidine is an essential amino acid, widely present at the active sites of enzymes. It binds to metal ions and may aid in the transport of copper. It also plays an important role for the binding of heme groups, macromolecules and phosphate groups in the binding sites of proteins.

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.
