EDX Applications for Pharmaceutical Industry
Measurement Range
How It Works • EDX-7000 11Na to 92U • EDX was adopted as a general analytical method of USP from 1 May 2015.
An X-ray source irradiates a sample, which in turn emits fluorescent • EDX-8000 6C to 92U • Described in USP<735> X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry
x-rays. The fluorescent X-rays are characteristic of the material. This • Main focus is analysis of impurity Key Features and Capabilities
information is used to identify an unknown sample. • Advantages: No sample preparation, non-destructive analysis and few easy steps (as shown below)
• Solid, liquid, powder & thin film*
• Intuitive software for RoHS, halogen*, antimony*,
The intensity of the X-rays is indicative of the concentration of the
material within a sample. If a standard is available, a calibration curve tin* screening & general applications*
can be developed to measure the concentration accurately. • Analysis in air environment
• Minimum maintenance required
On the other hand, it is possible to estimate the concentration using NEW • Coating thickness measurement*
theoretical method in the absence of a standard. • NO liquid nitrogen required
