Abstract Norethindrone, norethindrone acetate, dimethisterone, medroxyprogesterone acetate, and norethynodrel are determined in oral contraceptive tablets. For the first 4 compounds, a chloroform extract of the tablets is treated directly with isonicotinyl hydrazide reagent to produce a stable color which is measured at 380 nm. The chloroform extract of norethynodrel tablets is isomerized before the reagent is added. An intralaboratory study gave good results, with standard deviations of 0.74 to 1.21%. A collaborative study is recommended.

Abstract A collaborative study of the proposed method for progestational steroids in oral contraceptive tablets has been conducted. Both the tablets of commercial brands and simulated tablet mixtures of norethynodrel, norethindrone, and medroxyprogesterone acetate were assayed by the proposed method. Average recoveries of the steroids ranged from 95.30 to 101.91% of the declared amounts of commercial tablets, and 97.77 to 99.20% of the added quantities in simulated samples. The method has been adopted as official first action.

Abstract Seven laboratories participated In a collaborative study of a method for determination of phosphorus in meat and meat products. Samples are digested In sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide; digestion Is complete In approximately 10 mln. Phosphorus Is determined by colorimetric analysis of a dilute aliquot of the sample digest. The collaborators analyzed 3 sets of blind duplicate samples from each of 6 classes of meat (U.S. Department of Agriculture classifications): smoked ham, water-added ham, canned ham, pork sausage, cooked sausage, and hamburger. The calibration curve was linear over the range of standard solutions prepared (phosphorus levels from 0.05 to 1.00%); levels in the collaborative study samples ranged from 0.10 to 0.30%. Standard deviations for repeatability (sr) and reproducibility (sR) ranged from 0.004 to 0.012 and 0.007 to 0.014, respectively. Corresponding relative standard deviations (RSDr and RSDR, respectively) ranged from 1.70 to 7.28% and 3.50 to 9.87%. Six laboratories analyzed samples by both the proposed method and AOAC method 24.016 (14th Ed.). One laboratory reported results by the proposed method only. Statistical evaluations Indicated no significant difference between the 2 methods. The method has been adopted official first action by AOAC.

Abstract The following determinations were studied collaboratively: Al with ammonium aurintricarboxylate (Aluminon); Fe with 2,4,6-tripyridyl-s-triazine (TPTZ); Mn by oxidation to permanganate with KI04; P by a heteropoly blue method; and Ti with disodium-1,2-dihydroxybenzene-3,5-disulf onate (Tiron). Sample solutions were prepared by HCIO4 digestion or NaOH fusion. Reports were received from 11 collaborators. Eight of these reported all 5 elements, 2 reported 4 elements, and 1 reported 2 elements. Eight collaborators also reported Si. Standard deviations and mean errors are acceptable, and it is recommended that the methods be adopted as official, first action.

Abstract A collaborative study was conducted on simulated tablet and injection preparations at 2 concentration levels each and a 20 tablet composite of a tablet simulating presently marketed dosage forms of benztropine mesylate. Analysis involves the extraction of benztropine from 0.2N H2SO4 with bromophenol blue in CHCl3. Absorbance of the dye complex formed is measured at about 410 nm. Average recoveries and standard deviations submitted were: 98.9±2.54 and 99.2±2.58, 100.1±2.78 and 100.0±2.19, and 100.1±2.23%, respectively. The method has been adopted as official first action.

Abstract A previously published method for determining zirconium in antiperspirant aerosols was collaboratively studied by 7 laboratories. The method consists of 2 procedures: a rapid dilution procedure for soluble zirconium compounds or a lengthier fusion procedure for total zirconium (soluble and insoluble compounds), followed by colorimetric determination. The collaborators were asked to perform the following: Spiking materials representing 4 levels of soluble zirconium were added to weighed portions of a zirconium-free cream base concentrate and the portions were assayed by the dilution procedure. Spiking materials representing 4 levels of zirconium in either the soluble or the insoluble form (or as a mixture) were also added to portions of the same concentrate and these portions were assayed by the fusion procedure. They were also asked to concentrate and assay, by both procedures, 2 cans each of 2 commercial aerosol antiperspirants containing zirconyl hydroxychloride. The average per cent recoveries and standard deviations for spiked samples were 99.8–100.2 and 1.69–2.71, respectively, for soluble compounds determined by the dilution procedure, and 93.8–97.4 and 3.09–4.78, respectively, for soluble and/or insoluble compounds determined by the fusion procedure. The average per cent zirconium found by the dilution procedure in the 2 commercial aerosol products was 0.751 and 0.792, respectively, with coefficients of variation of 2.94 and 2.53%, respectively. Insufficient collaborative results were received for the fusion procedure for statistical evaluation. The dilution procedure has been adopted as official first action.

Abstract Mestranol in combination with ethynodiol diacetate, an oral contraceptive formulation, is isolated from the sample on a partition chromatographic column prior to colorimetric determination. The color reaction which is specific for estrogens is formed by shaking an aliquot of the heptane eluate of mestranol with a 30% methanol-sulfuric acid solution. A collaborative study of the method gave results of 99.8% of added mestranol for the simulated mix and 100.7% of labeled mestranol for the commercial tablet. The method has been adopted as official first action.

Abstract Reserpine-rescinnamine group alkaloids are extracted from Rauwolfia serpentina preparations into a dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)-methanol mixture and diluted with 0.5N H2SO4. The chloroform extract of this solution is passed through a 0.1N NaOH-Celite column and then through a silica gel column. The weakly basic alkaloids trapped on the latter column are eluted with a methanol mixture; a portion of the eluate is treated with nitrous acid and the reserpine-rescinnamine content is determined by measuring the intensity of fluorescence of the oxidation product. The following means and standard deviations (11 collaborators) were obtained for the determination of reserpine-rescinnamine group alkaloids in 4 samples of Rauwolfia serpentina (NF reference powder, 100 mg and 50 mg commercial tablets, and a 45 mg synthetic tablet formulation): 0.174%±0.0112, 0.131%±0.0047, 0.160%±0.0100, and 0.153% ±0.0083, respectively.

Abstract A colorimetric method for the determination of hydroxyproline as a measure of collagen in meat and meat products has been collaboratively studied in 18 laboratories. The method includes hydrolysis with sulfuric acid, oxidation with chloramine- T, and formation of a reddish purple complex with 4- dimethylaminobenzaldehyde. Five frozen and 3 freeze-dried samples were tested, ranging in content from 0.11 to 0.88% and from 0.39 to 4.0% hydroxyproline, respectively. The mean values of 2 identical samples were 0.245 and 0.251 %. The average recovery from a spiked sample was 96.1 %. The hydroxyproline content of a known sample (a mixture of 2 samples in the ratio 5:2) was calculated to 1.42%, which agrees well with the analytical result, 1.40%. In comparison with other collaborative studies, based on the ISO analytical method, the repeatability and reproducibility of this method agree well with the other results. This method was accepted as an official NMKL method by all national Committees, and has been adopted official first action by AOAC as an NMKLAOAC method.

Abstract The USP analysis for procainamide HCl is titrimetric and relatively nonspecific, capsule and tablet dyes may interfere, and the method is not applicable to coated tablets. In the spectrophotofluorometric method the sample deteriorates when exposed to a xenon source. In the ultraviolet spectrophotometric method reported here, the sample is dispersed in acid medium, possible interferences are extracted in chloroform, base is added, procainamide is extracted in chloroform, the residue is dissolved in sodium hydroxide, and the compound is measured by absorption at 272 nm and comparison with a standard. Recoveries of standards added to capsule, tablet, and injection composites ranged from 99.3 to 102%. Twelve collaborators reported duplicate assay results for all 3 dosage forms with per cent standard deviations for 5 samples ranging from 1.01 to 1.27%. The method has been adopted as official first action.
