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 HPLC-UV for purity and assay, with LC-MS to confirm identity. Full testing to the USP Bupropion Hydrochloride monograph is available and quoted.
Bupropion hydrochloride is sensitive to moisture and higher pH, which drive degradation, so samples should be kept dry and sealed.
It is a known bupropion impurity and degradation product, and the monograph limits it separately. It shows up as its own peak in the HPLC purity profile.
No. Bupropion is racemic and its enantiomers interconvert readily, so it is tested as a single compound.
