Purity verification, solvent residuals, and molecular identification by NMR and FTIR — plus custom method development when an off-the-shelf test does not exist.
Chemical producers and formulators rely on IAS to confirm identity, quantify purity, hunt down residual solvents, and develop methods for compounds that no standard test was written for.
Our NMR and FTIR capability confirms molecular structure and fingerprints unknowns, while chromatography quantifies the impurities and residuals that matter to your spec.
When the analysis you need does not exist yet, our chemists develop and document it — and you can start with a single sample.
Determines molecular structure and confirms compound identity.
Identifies organic & inorganic compounds through molecular fingerprinting.
Identifies and quantifies volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds.

Identity, purity and impurity profiling of inputs and intermediates.
Residual solvents, composition and contaminant screening.
Reverse-engineering and identification of unidentified substances.
Yes. NMR provides definitive structure elucidation and identity confirmation, complemented by FTIR for functional-group fingerprinting.
Yes — GC-MS quantifies residual solvents and volatile impurities against your specification.
That is a core strength. We develop, document and run custom analytical methods for novel and difficult compounds.
Yes. Combining NMR, FTIR and GC-MS, we identify unknown substances and reverse-engineer composition.
A novel compound, a proprietary formulation, an impurity nobody has a method for — developing custom analytical methods is something we do every week. Send a sample and we will build the approach around it.
