Chemical composition analysis

We offer a comprehensive range of chemical analyses for identifying the chemical composition and purity of different organic and inorganic chemicals. Testing options range from identifying unknown substances to detecting trace amounts of impurities in samples with an otherwise well-established composition. The following are just a few examples:

Environmental pollutants

Contaminant analysis

One of the most common reasons for chemical testing is identifying and quantifying different contaminants, such as heavy metals, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrosamines, phthalates, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).

Measurlabs offers contaminant analysis for environmental samples, food, chemicals, toys, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, consumer goods, semiconductors, and industrial materials. Test results can be used to demonstrate that products are compliant with national or EU legislation, for example, on food contaminants or the purity of cosmetic products.

Regulatory chemical testing

Regulatory chemical analyses are performed to assess compliance with relevant regulations and standards, such as REACH and CLP. Chemicals and mixtures must meet both REACH and CLP requirements to be lawfully sold and marketed within the EU. Additional testing requirements are imposed by industry-specific legislation, such as the Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR) and the Cosmetics Regulation.

A good example of our regulatory chemical analysis services is the identification and quantification of substances of very high concern (SVHCs), the use of which is restricted under the REACH regulation. SVHC analysis is always tailored to the material and the hazardous substances it may be expected to contain. You can request a quote for your product using the form below.

Chemical analysis methods

Various analytical methods are used in chemical testing. When characterizing the composition or purity of organic substances, some of the popular methods include NMR spectroscopy, HPLC-MS, ATR-FTIR, and GC-MS. For qualitative and quantitative information on the inorganic components of a substance, XRD, XRF, and ICP-based methods (e.g. ICP-OES, ICP-MS, ICP-SFMS) are often employed.

The choice of the most appropriate technique depends on the sample matrix and the goal of the analysis. When required, several methods can be used together to obtain a more complete picture of chemical composition.
