General description

Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.
Atropine Sulfate is an alkaloid extracted from belladonna herb. It is a cholinergic drug, administered as an anti-arrhythmic medicine.

Application

Atropine Sulfate may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations by electrophoresis and chromatography techniques.
These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Competitive nonselective antagonist at central and peripheral muscarinic acetylcholine receptors.
