General Description
Mettler-Toledo calibration substance ME 30130597,
p-toluamide is an analytical standard, ideal for use in the routine calibration of Mettler-Toledo melting point instrument. Its value is measured as a mean of 6 to 12 iterations using a Mettler-Toledo MP70 Excellence instrument that is calibrated with primary standards. The melting point determination is carried out by Capillary method in accordance with European Pharmacopeia (2.2.14.)
