Characterisation level

* Mass balance is performed on every molecule. The only exceptions are cases where the chemistry of the molecule prevents it, for example oils and highly volatile substances, on which some of the required measurements cannot be made: in those cases the CoA states how the content was assigned.

An antimicrobial of the chlorinated diphenyl ether family, 5-chloro-2-(4-chlorophenoxy)phenol, also known as DCPP, a close relative of triclosan. It is used in liquid dishwashing detergents and disinfectant hand soaps; in 2014 the EU Biocidal Products Committee assessed it for approval.

Did you know?The name tells the difference from its more famous cousin: diclosan has two chlorine atoms, triclosan three; because the two are so similar, the EU assessment relied partly on triclosan data.

Frequently asked questions

Is mass balance always performed?

Yes, on every molecule. The only exceptions are cases where the chemistry of the molecule prevents it: for example oils and highly volatile substances, on which some measurements (such as thermogravimetry) cannot be made. In those cases the CoA states which method was used to assign the content.

Can I ask for a different quantity?

Yes. The quantities are only suggestions: choose "Other" and enter the milligrams or grams you need.

Which level should I choose?

Level 1 is enough for most routine testing. Level 2 adds an independent qNMR content value and is meant for labs that need to qualify an in-house primary standard. For peptides and similar molecules, Level 2 is not available.

When will I get the quote?

Within 24 working hours, with price, availability and delivery time.
