Content of the European Pharmacopoeia RS catalogue

The EDQM proposes more than 3 000 Ph. Eur. RS including a wide range of highly-characterised chemical reference substances (CRS), herbal reference standards (HRS) and biological reference preparations (BRP), as well as reference spectra for the tests and assays to be carried out in accordance with the official methods prescribed in the European Pharmacopoeia. The Ph. Eur. RS catalogue is updated on a daily basis and gives access not only to all the Ph. Eur. RS, but also to:

  • batch validity statements (BVSs) for each reference standard;
  • safety data sheets and safety data statements for hazardous biologicals;
  • leaflets (downloadable PDF).

For your convenience, the Ph. Eur. RS catalogue is updated on a daily basis and can be downloaded in PDF format and in XML format.
