An ISO certification is the highest award a laboratory or factory can achieve. It surpasses the standards of OTC and even surpasses the strict standards of pharmaceutical manufacturing. Creatine Monohydrate is produced via a chemical synthesis route. The synthesis is done by reacting sarcosine sodium salt with cyanamide under heated conditions. Sarcosine sodium salt is a derivative of acetic acid.
Cyanamide is an organic amide.
When the process is complete, the sodium salt is rinsed away and the finished product is then redried. This critical step insures there is no residual sodium common to incomplete processing. Further information on specific processing conditions and equipment used in the manufacture of creatine monohydrate is considered proprietary and the process patent protected. Our finished product then undergoes rigid testing for purity against a creatine monohydrate standard. This purity test is the only test the majority of companies will conduct on their product.
