Applications of Volumetric Karl Fischer Moisture Analyzers in the Pharmaceutical Industry

Pharmaceuticals are a special commodity whose quality bears directly on human life and health; strict production quality control safeguards drug quality and medication safety, and the strict FDA/GMP requirements of the 2017 Pharmacopoeia raise the bar for drug quality testing.

In pharmaceutical production, moisture is a key quality indicator affecting product quality and shelf life; it must be strictly controlled and tested throughout production and quality control.

The Karl Fischer method is the most-used moisture method in pharmaceuticals. Samples vary widely in form—tablets, suppositories, freeze-dried preparations, active substances—with free water, crystallization water, and active ingredients all affecting measurement, so solvents and reagents must be chosen per each drug's properties.

The VicoMeter WKT-C9 uses the Karl Fischer volumetric principle, detecting down to 10ppm and measuring solids, liquids, and powders within 30 seconds; with RS232 connectivity and 200 stored data sets, it upgrades the "Smart" model with higher automation and precision, meeting Pharmacopoeia and multiple standards across chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, power, food, battery, plastics, research, and testing industries.

There is much more on principles, operating methods, procedures, and maintenance tips.
