New Technologies to Streamline Chemical Imaging and Quantification of API Forms in Drug Development

The elemental analysis of petrochemical products such as crude oils, intermediate refinery products, automotive fuels, or modern lubricating oils is quite challenging. If you work with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectroscopy (ICP), the organic matrix of petrochemical products requires special attention during sample preparation and instrument adjustment. Here, X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) is really different and brings a lot of benefits to your lab, including simple sample preparation and elimination of daily re-calibrations. During this webinar, you will learn more about why sample preparation in XRF is so simple and straight forward and how the comprehensive XRF portfolio from Bruker can boost your sample throughput for such demanding applications. We will provide information that will help you to decide if an Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) or a Wavelength Dispersive XRF (WDXRF) instrument is the best choice for your specific petrochemical application.

The authoring of Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) dossiers is complex and to this day is still essentially a manual process. Information is collected from early development to the approval of Marketing Authorization and beyond.

Fracking doesn't just fuel power plants, it also provides raw materials to the petrochemical industry. Producing plastics and other petrochemical products is inherently toxic, polluting the environment and imposing public health risks on workers and the communities near the plants. The demand for these petrochemicals is so great that the plastics industry is now a driving force behind new fossil fuel extraction and infrastructure expansion.

It’s no secret that the world is currently experiencing changes of large magnitude in these unprecedented times.
