ChromaDex Corporation, an innovative natural products company, and LGC Standards have signed an agreement under which ChromaDex will distribute a new range of reference standards called LoGiCal, which will focus on the forensic and clinical sectors and their line of pharmaceutical impurities standards.

LoGiCal, as a new product range focusing on the needs of forensic and clinical laboratories, will provide access to a wide variety of reference materials, including drugs of abuse, prescription drugs and drug metabolites. A segment of this product line is ISO Guide 34 certified, which ensures that all methods a manufacturer uses to certify their standards are validated and proven to be accurate, a new addition to the ChromaDex portfolio. This will add to ChromaDex's extensive current catalog that contains over 3,000 phytochemicals and 470 botanical reference materials that serve a wide variety of markets such as food & beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmeceutical, research organizations and governmental groups.

Frank Jaksch, CEO and co-founder of ChromaDex said, "By adding the LoGiCal reference standards to our portfolio of offerings, we further add to our ability to be a one-stop shop for our customers."

Dr Keith Williams, product manager and Key Account Manager at LGC Standards, said, "We are delighted that ChromaDex is incorporating LoGiCal products into their portfolio. The availability of these high quality reference materials will allow US laboratories to meet their compliance needs."
