GC Headspace Solvents
USP chapter 467 and Ph Eur Chapter 2.4.24 designate the maximum allowed residual solventlimits to ensure pharmaceutical products are free of impurities that could be harmful to an end-user. When analyzing for organic volitile impurities via the GC-Headspace technique, it is imperative that the solvents used do not contribute extraneous peaks, or interfere with the analytes being investigated.
PFAS Solvents
The analysis of PFAs (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) is now a requirement in specific EPA regulations. Bioaccumulation of PFA compounds is suspected to lead to undesirable health outcomes, making it necessary to detect and quantify them in various matrices, including but not limited to, water, food, and soil.
UHPLC Solvents
UHPLC is a growing technique in pharma, quality control, organic synthesis, environmental and genomics/proteomics. This technique offers the advantage of being up to five-fold faster and using less solvents than traditional HPLC while still providing the detection, identification and quantification of complex matrixes.
Veritas Quantum
Our state of the art clean room, next generation proprietary distillation technology, and advanced analytical techniques foster a data driven culture. With data analysis and operational reporting down to the minute, our process to minimizes variability.

Our product offering clearly delineates acids and their grades to simplify the offering to customers, while covering a wide array of applications in the lab.
Cannabis Reagent Offerings
In the 60’s, no one could manufacture perchloric acid clean enough to digest lunar samples, so GFS Chemicals built an acid distillation plant to serve the U.S. Space Program, establishing our expertise in high purity acid manufacturing. Our second acid plant was finished in 2021, filling a need for a U.S. based manufacturer that reliably supplies trace metal acids to half of the U.S. population in three days or less. Much has changed over the last fifty years and our entire process is now controlled by cutting-edge technology. Advanced process controls and analytics ensure Veritas Acids are ultrapure every time.
