Arzneibuch-Methode
Explanation:
Das ist eine Prüfungsmethode von Stoffen in der Arzneimittelindustrie (teilweise auch Nahrungsmittel, v.a. in USA), die bestimmten Kriterien genügen muss. Arzneibuchmethoden sind z.B. USP, EUR, PH, DOE, HASL-300, ASTM.

The following describes what "compendial" means:

"An important area in the field of nutritional supplements relates to products that are compendial compared with those which are noncompendial. A compendial product refers to a nutrient which is listed in one of the official "compendia" which guide the field of American pharmacy. Such volumes include the U.S.P. (United States Pharmacopeia), the N.F. (National Formulary), and the F.C.C. (Food Chemicals Code). When a manufacturer produces an item listed in one of these regulatory volumes, the chances are the product will meet at least the minimum standards listed for potency and dissolution."

Hoffe, das macht es deutlich!
