Purity and quantity is $250 per sample (1 unit) and raw powder purity is $200 for 50 mg, with results in 3 to 5 business days. Send the material sealed and labeled, with the label claim and the form it contains.
No. The $250 test covers identity, purity and quantity by a chromatographic assay, with detection selected for the compound. Full testing to the USP Aminocaproic Acid monograph is available and quoted.
It is a simple aliphatic amino acid with no chromophore, so the lab uses a detection method suited to the compound.
Caprolactam, the cyclic lactam it is made from, and short dimers and oligomers of the acid are the usual related substances. These differ in mass and show up clearly in the test.
