LGC Group has announced the acquisition of the ChromaDex Reference Standards portfolio, adding more than 3,000 phytochemical reference materials to its broader standards offering.
This expansion further strengthens LGC’s reference materials portfolio and provides laboratories with access to a deeper range of compounds across important testing areas, including pharmaceutical development, food and beverage testing, nutraceuticals, botanicals, natural products, and authenticity analysis.
The acquired portfolio includes a wide selection of phytochemical reference materials covering compound classes such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenes, carotenoids, organic acids, stilbenoids, vitamins, and other plant-based compounds. These materials are commonly used to support ingredient verification, contamination detection, analytical method development, batch-to-batch quality checks, and routine quality control.
As laboratories continue to work with increasingly complex raw materials and supply chains, dependable reference materials play an important role in supporting confident identification, robust quantitative analysis, and strong quality documentation.
For PM Separations customers, this development is especially relevant to laboratories working in:
- Food and beverage testing
- Nutraceutical and botanical analysis
- Pharmaceutical and formulation development
- Natural product verification
- Regulated or quality-sensitive analytical testing environments
This acquisition highlights ongoing investment in reference material depth, particularly in phytochemical and plant-derived compound categories that continue to grow in analytical importance.
