The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies performs in-depth extractables testing to identify and quantify chemicals that can be extracted from or released by a wide variety of materials.
Extractables Testing: The Process
Our experienced chemical analysis experts expose sample materials to chemical and environmental conditions that simulate those the test subject will be exposed to during its operational lifecycle, analyzing the material for extractable chemicals. These chemists then use gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry, and/or spectroscopy to identify and evaluate the extractables.
Extractables testing is mainly used to assess the safety of materials, as well as their compatibility with products and materials they come into contact with. This process helps to identify any potentially harmful substances that could leach into or out of a product. Extractables testing is commonly used for industries including medical device manufacturing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, personal care product manufacturing, and petrochemical, as well as several others.
