Analytical Chemistry and Purification

Compound purification and quality control

Chemical composition analyses utilize a combination of techniques that can cover a wide range of applications and determine chemical quality, identity, composition and impurities, with molecular structure elucidation and chemical structure confirmation provided by our analytical expertise. Within analytical chemistry, Taros scientists use mass spectrometry techniques to determine molecular weight and various approaches to provide valuable data in the identification of an unknown molecule. During the process, they apply techniques such as 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to explore and confirm the connectivity of the atoms in the molecule. They also apply a range of techniques including chromatography approaches to study and confirm optical isomers of chiral molecules.
