NAMSA’s chemistry laboratories provide analytical support for the development and quality audit of medical devices, reagents, and excipients. Principle areas of work are instrumental analysis of polymers and other product components for purity, uniformity, composition, sterilant residues and general extractables so the material has identity and reproducibility in product manufacturing.
