IMPORTANT FOR DESTRUCTIVE TESTS

Ship one extra vial per destructive test.

Four of our methods consume the sample. To keep your COA honest about this exact lot, each destructive test needs its own aliquot from the same batch.

Endotoxin (LAL)

≥ 1 mg

USP <85> gel-clot or kinetic-chromogenic

Sterility (USP <71>)

≥ 2 mg

14-day fluid thioglycolate + SCD culture — full vial consumed

Residual solvents

≥ 1 mg

GC-MS headspace, USP <467> Class 1/2/3

Short on material? HPLC purity, Identity, NPC, and TFA can run on a single shared aliquot of ~1 mg total. Destructive tests are the only ones that stack sample requirements.
