General description

It is widely used in the treatment of bipolar disorder, migraine, depression, epilepsy and schizophrenia.
Valproic acid is a branched short chain fatty acid, which finds applications as a antiepileptic drug.
Certified pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to in-house working standards.

Application

Valproic acid may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations using gas chromatography technique.
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

Anticonvulsant that also has efficacy as a mood stabilizer in bipolar disorder

Analysis Note

These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP and EP (PhEur) primary standards, where they are available.
