Forensic and Toxicology Reference Materials

Accuracy in forensic and toxicology testing is essential. Whether you're confirming a controlled substance, screening biological samples, or building out a new panel, reliable forensic and toxicology reference materials are the backbone of credible results. Chiron reference materials deliver high-quality products built for real lab conditions. If your work hinges on precision, this is where the conversation starts.

Why Reference Materials Matter in Forensic and Toxicology Work

When your results end up in a courtroom, workplace investigation, or clinical report, there's no room for uncertainty. Forensic and toxicology reference materials play a critical role in making sure every confirmation, screen, or panel delivers results that stand up to scrutiny.

Whether validating a method or troubleshooting matrix effects, our materials help you catch what generic kits often miss. When your lab is responsible for delivering accurate answers, high-quality reference materials should always be a priority.

What Chiron Offers

The Chiron product line supplies forensic and toxicology reference materials designed to meet the demands of real labs, not theoretical ones. Our portfolio includes drug standards, quality control materials, and inactivated biological matrices that work across numerous platforms and analytes.

You’ll find toxicology reference materials available in multiple formats, including lyophilized and liquid. Every lot is documented, traceable, and ready to integrate into LC-MS/MS, GC-MS, immunoassay, or hybrid workflows.

Need something custom? We handle that, too, with direct support from our scientific team and fast turnaround that doesn’t slow down your pipeline.

Application Areas

Professionals use our forensic and toxicology reference materials across numerous testing environments, each with its own requirements, regulations, and pressure to get it right. Whether you're running batch screens or validating a new protocol, we design our toxicology reference materials to ensure your results are accurate and traceable.

You'll find them in environments such as:

• Clinical toxicology – Supporting routine and confirmatory testing
• Workplace drug testing – Ensuring consistency across high-volume screening
• Forensic casework – Delivering defensible results for law enforcement and legal proceedings
• Postmortem and coroners' labs – Detecting substances in complex biological samples
• Research and assay development – Supporting new method design and platform validation
• Public health monitoring – Tracking drug trends and emerging threats with precision

Whatever the use case, accuracy starts here.

Toxicology Standards Backed by Accreditation's

We build every product in our catalog on validated processes and third-party accreditation, because good enough doesn't cut it in this field. ZeptoMetrix and Chiron are an ISO 17034-certified reference material producer, and we test our toxicology materials in an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited facility. That means traceability, reproducibility, and documentation you can hand off without hesitation.

Whether you're prepping for an audit, fine-tuning a method, or expanding your lab's capabilities, we create our forensic and toxicology reference materials to meet the benchmarks that regulators, certifiers, and your own QC protocols demand.

Supporting Evolving Substance Panels

Drug trends don't wait for your next assay update. Our forensic and toxicology reference materials help labs stay current as new substances emerge and testing menus shift. From fentanyl analogs and synthetic cannabinoids to lesser-known benzodiazepines and designer stimulants, we supply toxicology materials that keep your screening relevant and your confirmations on track.

From adding new compounds to an existing panel to starting from scratch, our materials slot into your workflow without guesswork or holdups. Because when the substances change, your standards can't stay static.
