Registration opens for AGQM's third round robin test on glycerol
Registration is now open for the international round robin test for pharmaceutical glycerol, organized by Germany’s biodiesel quality management association AGQM, until Jan. 12.
The round robin test offers the opportunity to perform an external independent quality assurance for analytics of pharmaceutical glycerol. Company laboratories as well as commercial service laboratories can validate their own measuring performance and verify the used methods. In the round robin test, methods from the European Pharmacopeia as well as selected standard procedures are requested.

As an association of the leading companies of the German biodiesel industry, AGQM predominantly deals with all issues concerning the quality management of biodiesel. Since 1999 AGQM performs round robin tests for biodiesel analytics. Now the organization offer its third round robin test for pharmaceutical glycerol, which is an important byproduct of biodiesel production. Glycerol has a lot of possible applications in the industry. In the past, it was primarily used in the fields of cosmetics and technology. Nowadays it is used more and more as high-quality pharmaceutical glycerol (purity greater than 99.5 percent), which is gained by refining raw glycerol.
