Ibuprofen is a laboratory-grade chemical compound used as a reference standard in analytical testing. It is a white, crystalline solid with a melting point of around 78°C. Ibuprofen is a common non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and is often used as a calibration standard for the identification and quantification of pharmaceutical and biological samples.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
