| General description: | Dextran 10 Calibration is a polysaccharide molecular weight marker composed of glucose polymers with an average molecular weight of 10 kDa. It is used in gel permeation chromatography (GPC) or size exclusion chromatography (SEC) for molecular weight calibration of carbohydrate-based substances. The USP biologics carbohydrates category includes a variety of carbohydrate-based substances that are essential in the development and manufacturing of therapeutic products. These carbohydrates play crucial roles in biological processes and are often utilized as excipients, stabilizers, or active ingredients in pharmaceuticals. The USP provides comprehensive standards, reference materials, and analytical procedures to ensure the identity, quality, purity, and consistency of carbohydrate therapeutics throughout their lifecycle. The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) provides quality standards for biologics to ensure their safety, efficacy, and quality throughout the manufacturing process. These standards assist manufacturers in adhering to regulatory requirements and help safeguard public health by reducing risks associated with biologics. |
