The second most crucial step in a quality control analysis is the assay. This assesses whether something is at the concentration or purity that you expect. Assays are generally done using HPLC or UPLC machines, but other methodologies might be employed for specific instances. If you want to know the purity of your L-theanine, or the concentration of withanolides in your Ashwagandha, an assay is what you are looking for. Furthermore, proper chemistry must be observed for you to trust that the assay result you are getting is actually telling you what you think it is. Running an L-theanine sample through and HPLC and getting a clean peak with a peak area of 100% does NOT mean you have pure L-theanine. You must run it against a qualified reference standard, comparing the peak area and response factor to a known-purity sample, before you can conclusively state what the purity of your L-theanine is. At Omnient labs, we use proper chemistry to ensure that an assay result is valid every time.
