Starna offers new photometric linearity reference sets

Published: 13-May-2010

Suitable for pharmaceutical QA laboratories

Starna Scientific’s near infrared (NIR) traceable photometric linearity reference sets are now available for pharmaceutical QA labs and customer support organisations seeking to qualify their NIR systems. These reference sets offer Operational Qualification (OQ) and Performance Qualification (PQ) of the transmittance scale in the NIR using industry standard protocols.

The sets are based on easy to handle, non-consumable Certified Reference Materials for qualifying the NIR Transmittance scale. The wavelength range covered is 1100 to 2850nm, with a %T (A) range of 1.5 %T (1.82A) to 61%T (0.21A).

Starna, based in Hainault, Essex, UK, has many years of experience gained preparing Visible Neutral Density filter references for ISO 17025 and ISO Guide 34 accreditation and produces references for National Measurement Institutions (NMIs).
