Test Speci cations Complying with the European, Test Speci cations for ASTM
Japanese, Chinese, and U.S. Pharmacopoeias (ASTM E1421 Level Zero)

• Shape and intensity of a power spectrum
• The following speci cations for a polystyrene • Energy intensity test based on the power spectrum
spectrum are veri ed:
• Resolution • Noise test based on a 100% transmittance spectrum
• Wavenumber accuracy • Reproducibility test based on a polystyrene spectrum
• Wavenumber reproducibility
• Transmittance (absorbance) reproducibility

*): Please contact for the applicable version. **) : The Indian Pharmacopoeia has been uni ed with the European Pharmacopoeia.
***) : The United States Pharmacopoeia states that validation should be performed according to the method speci ed by the equipment manufacturer.
