- Short Description: Nitrosamines are carcinogenic compounds found across a wide range of industries. In recent years this has been a particular issue for the pharmaceutical industry with several high-profile product recalls due to the presence of nitrosamines in medication. Off that back of these cases, regulatory bodies have required pharmaceutical companies to conduct risk assessments and monitor their products, ingredients and processes for the potential to introduce nitrosamine content.
Description
The Automated Total Nitrosamine Analyser (ATNA) is Ellutia’s newest tool for detecting nitrosamine impurities. It offers a unique method for the rapid detection of nitrosamine containing compounds.
The ATNA offers a simple, accurate, and reliable test that delivers a clear pass/fail result for apparent total nitrosamine content (ATNC) within minutes. Samples can be immediately cleared for processing or positive samples sent for further testing by gas chromatography (GC) or liquid chromatography (LC). It allows manufacturers within various industries to meet the legal requirements of risk assessments without needing to outsource testing of raw materials or products at different stages of the manufacturing process.
