Impurities are chemical species that differ from the chemical compositions of desired materials or compounds. Impurities that reveal during quality control or other processes may pose unexpected or adverse effects on the development of products, especially medical devices and pharmaceuticals. In order to minimize the occurrence of unexpected impurities in the manufacturing process, it is important to discover the origins of impurities.

Impurity identification is the process of using various analytical techniques to elucidate the identity of unknown substances in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, combination medicinal products or consumer products. Three types of impurities are commonly evaluated in impurity identification: organic impurities, inorganic impurities, and residual solvents. In fact, identifying and characterizing impurities is important for both product development and safety reasons, as they may be harmful to the health of users.

Various organizations, such as FDA and ICH, have established guidelines for the identification of impurities as well as acceptance criteria, identification thresholds, and identification procedures in medical devices or drug products. Specifically, USP general chapter “Impurities in Drug Substances and Drug Products” and USP “Organic Impurities in Drug Substances and Drug Products” stated regulations for pharmaceutical impurities, while USP and stated guidelines for elemental impurities.
