At Canyon Labs, we understand that maintaining the highest quality and safety standards for medical devices is essential. That’s why we offer Comparative FTIR (Fourier-Transform Infrared) Analysis as part of our comprehensive testing services. But what does this analysis entail, and why is it important for medical device manufacturers?
Why Comparative FTIR Analysis Matters

Comparative FTIR analysis is like creating a “chemical fingerprint” for materials. By analyzing how a material absorbs infrared light, we can identify its unique molecular structure and compare it to reference materials. This process is critical for:
- Ensuring Material Consistency: Verifying that each batch matches the desired composition, supporting quality across production.
- Detecting Contaminants: Identifying any unexpected or harmful compounds that may have been introduced during manufacturing.
- Supporting Compliance: Meeting standards like ISO 10993 to ensure biocompatibility and regulatory adherence.
How Canyon Labs Can Help
Our team uses advanced FTIR equipment and expertise to deliver precise material comparisons, helping manufacturers verify material integrity and maintain stringent quality control. Whether for routine quality checks or detailed investigations, our comparative FTIR services provide the insights needed to keep devices safe, reliable, and compliant.
