Quality Control at Merck
Quality control laboratory to

monitor the own high standards
Merck placed particular importance on

the quality of the products. In a letter
to a customer in 1851, Emanuel Merck
wrote: “I guarantee you consistent
purity of my preparations and will
compensate you for any loss
arising from an impure
preparation.” Merck’s “guaranteed
pure reagents” – labeled “pro
analysi” (“for analysis”) came onto
the market in 1888.
These created the basis for
comparative chemical analysis, since
they were manufactured according to
binding purity standards. A quality
control laboratory was established to
monitor these own high standards.

Reagent Requirements - today
Definitely SOLVENTS are still one of the most important and

most essential parts of chemistry. But it’s needless to say that
the requirements concerning the performance of a solvent have
changed dramatically …
▪ New detection methods

▪ Automation of analysis
▪ New instruments and technical equipment
▪ New fields of applications
▪ High degree of authoritative regulations
▪ New aspects in handling and safety

Universal
Our solvents and inorganic reagents have no boundaries. Due to

their multi-standard compliance, they can be used across the globe
for almost all applications.
This is a great advantage for our global customers as it allows them

to work with the same standard operating procedures (SOPs), and
export to countries with different regulations.

Your Benefits
• Accurate and reproducible results

• Right conclusion (minimized risk of false-positive results
• Less no. of analysis
• Saving of costs & resources(time/sample/staff)
• Better knowledge of impurity profile
12
Packaging
Premium packaging not only protects chemicals, but

also the lab personnel who use them. That’s why we
have developed various innovative packaging and
withdrawal systems, which are precisely tailored to
the contents.
Here are some of our highlights:

• Light and unbreakable HDPE bottles for reagents
• Robust, PE-coated Safebreak bottles for acids
• Environmental friendly, returnable stainless
steel drums for solvents
