This internationally recognized Quality Assurance System embraces all aspects of the company’s operations and activities thus ensuring consistency in manufacturing processes, resulting in the production of high quality, chemical analysis reagents.

The details of all manufactured products are listed on an ANPROS Manufactured Product Form for quality control purposes.

Specific products such as sodium hydroxide solutions (ie 0.010N,0.100N & 1.00N, etc) are NITROGEN PURGED in order to maintain the product in a fresh condition and to extend the shelf life of the product.

QUALITY CONTROL DOCUMENTATION

All laboratory reagents are supplied with the following information:

1. A Materials Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)
This data sheet provides details regarding the safety procedures to be used in the case of either spillage, ingestion or inhalation of the product.

2. A Certificate of Analysis Sheet (C of A)
The C of A information is obtained through the use of Standard Chemical Analysis Procedures. This sheet provides an analysis of the product, thus indicating the chemical assay (%), purity (%) or concentration in terms of Molarity, Normality or percent w/w, w/v or v/v ( where w = weight or mass and v = volume).

3. Labelling requirements
Each Laboratory Reagent is labelled as follows;
a.    The Name of the laboratory reagent
b.    The Product Code
c.    The Concentration, Purity or Assay
d.    The Batch Number
e.    The Best by Date
f.     The Pack Size, expressed in gram, kilogram(kg), millilitre or litre.

4. Dangerous Goods
In the case of Dangerous Goods, specific labels, consisting of different shapes and colours are attached to each bottle, etc.
