Asbestos in Talcum


USP latest update on Talcum
The USP Monograph Talc, which introduces stricter testing requirements for asbestos in talc using advanced methods: light microscopy and x-ray diffractometry, was implemented and is effective of December 1st 2025. For the first time the monograph mandates the use of both Light Microscopy (LIM) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD).
These changes intend to ensure the highest safety and quality standards for talc-containing products.
