1. USP - The USP designation means that the water is the subject of an official monograph in the current US PHARMACOPEIA with various specifications for each type. The quality of water carrying a USP designation can vary from the lowest purity specification "USP Purified" typically required by the FDA for manufacture of oral and topical pharmaceuticals and the highest purity, USP Water for Injection (WFI), used in injectible pharmaceuticals
2. CLSI - The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute addresses preparation and testing of reagent grade water used in clinical laboratories. CLSI has replaced water standards previously issued by NCCLS: National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards. The categories of purity include:
   1. CLRW - clinical laboratory reagent water
   2. SRW - special reagent water
   3. Instrument and feedwater
   4. Autoclave and wash water
   5. Water supplied by a method manufacturer
   6. Commercially bottled; purified water
   7. These designations replaced the long-used Type I, II and III designations. CLRW can typically substitute for Type II and III water and autoclave and wash water purity for Type III.
3. ASTM International - formerly known as American Society for Testing and Materials, ASTM has standards for laboratory water which designate Type I, II and III quality. These standards typically apply more to non-clinical laboratory settings.
4. CAP - College of American Pathologists. This organization works closely with CSLI in setting standards for validation and operation of laboratory equipment.

1. Highest purity – this is typically required for HPLC,GC, HPLC ,AA , ICP-MS, for buffers and culture media for mammalian cell culture & IVF and for reagents for molecular biology.
2. “Mid purity” – Water for buffers, pH solutions, culture media preparation , clinical analyzers.
3. Lower purity – Water for glassware rinsing, filling autoclaves, heating baths and humidifiers.
