Portable TOC Analysis

Methods for wet-chemistry testing of organic carbon in water are no longer compliant with many regulatory agencies. With the advent of portable total organic carbon analyzers like the METTLER TOLEDO 450TOC, some smaller companies are finally able to get quantitative TOC results.

These results are delivered in a USP <643> and 21CFR Part 11-compliant way, anywhere. This case study explains how deutraMed, a Canadian company, gained compliance with all major pharmacopeias.

deutraMed was founded by a group of industry specialists to better understand and meet the expanding global demand for deuterium-containing ingredients. Their team identified the need for expertise and innovation to achieve a focused and reliable supply of these products. The team of scientists spans applications from the life sciences to high technology, as use of deuterium ingredients is increasing globally to create a healthier and more connected world.

deutraMed obtained the portable 450TOC analyzer from METTLER TOLEDO for their analysis of deuterium oxide (D2O), also known as "heavy water" or "deuterated water".

The 450TOC analyzer for rapid TOC measurement significantly reduces system and component verification time. It ensures 100% system compliance globally with fast and simple point-of-use monitoring, and reduces system diagnostics time with rapid TOC and conductivity results. On-board USB data collection, with simple export to spreadsheet programs or printing, eliminates costly sampling errors by bringing the measurement directly to the sampling point.
