Abstract A collaborative study determining glycyrrhizic acid or glycyrrhizic acid salts content of various licorice products has been conducted using high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Five samples containing various concentrations of glycyrrhizic acid were analyzed in blind replicates by 8 collaborators. The results indicate excellent repeatability and reproducibility with coefficients of variation less than 7.5%. In addition, this method allows the determination of glycyrrhizic acid in less than 15 min compared with 3 days for the conventional gravimetric and colorimetric methods. The method has been adopted official first action.

Abstract A reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatographic method for the determination of oxazepam in tablets and capsules was collaboratively studied by 9 laboratories. Collaborators were supplied with 6 samples that included synthetic and commercial formulations. Tablet and capsule composites are diluted with methanol and filtered. Oxazepam is determined at 254 nm by using a C18 column. Mean recoveries of oxazepam from synthetic tablet and capsule formulations were 97.2 and 99.0%, respectively. Mean coefficients of variation for tablets and capsules ranged from 1.85 to 2.86%. The method has been adopted official first action.

Abstract A reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatographic method in which ion-pairing is used for the determination of combinations of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride with triprolidine hydrochloride or chlorpheniramine maleate in syrups and tablets was collaboratively studied by 8 laboratories. Collaborators were supplied with 12 samples including synthetic and commercial syrup formulations and commercial tablet composites. Mean recoveries of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and triprolidine hydrochloride from synthetic syrup formulations were 100.5 and 99.6%, respectively. Mean recoveries of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and chlorpheniramine maleate from synthetic syrups were 98.8 and 100.5%, respectively. Mean coefficients of variation for syrups and tablets ranged from 1.68 to 3.07% for pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, from 2.92 to 3.85% for triprolidine hydrochloride, and from 1.34 to 2.15% for chlorpheniramine maleate. The method has been adopted official first action.

Abstract Mirex and photomirex (8-monohydromirex) were separated from polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and other aromatic compounds by nitration with fuming nitric acid-concentrated sulfuric acid and removal of nitro-PCBs on an alumina microcolumn; the compounds were then determined by gas-liquid chromatography. Recoveries of Mirex and photomirex were 102±8 and 104±5%, respectively, from standard solutions which had a PCB-to-Mirex and photomirex ratio of 1000. Recoveries from fortified, uncontaminated samples of sediment, fish, and eggs averaged 93±7 and 92±3% for Mirex and photomirex, respectively. The coefficients of variation for repeatability and reproducibility averaged 8 and 15%, respectively, in an interlaboratory study conducted by 4 laboratories using extracts of naturally contaminated substrates (sediment, carp, eel, and gull egg). Levels of Mirex in the samples ranged from 0.1 to 8 mg/kg, and levels of PCB ranged from 0.5 to 166 mg/kg.

Abstract The gas-liquid chromatographic determination of tetradifon technical and formulations was collaboratively studied in duplicate with 12 laboratories. Six samples were dissolved in dichloroethane with n-hexacosane as the internal standard, chromatographed on a column of 3% SE-52, and detected by flame ionization. The average coefficients of variation were 1.2% for the 2 technical samples, 1.6% for the 2 wettable powders, and 1.5% for the 2 emulsifiable concentrates. The method has been adopted official first action.

Abstract A liquid chromatographic method for the determination of triadimefon (Bayleton™) in triadimefon technical and formulated products has been developed and subjected to a collaborative study with 7 participating collaborators. Formulations were extracted with mobile solvent and analyzed by normal phase chromatography, with 4-chlorophenyl sulfoxide as an internal standard. Collaborators were furnished with standards and samples of technical products, 50% wettable powders, and 25% wettable powders for analysis. Coefficients of variation of the values obtained on these samples were 1.42, 0.82, and 1.05%, respectively. The method has been adopted official first action.

Abstract A high pressure liquid chromatographic method is described for the determination of amaranth (FD&C Red No. 2; Red No. 2) in licorice products. The Red No. 2 is extracted with a basic buffer solution, cleaned up on a Sep-Pak column, chromatographed on a reverse phase column in the ion pairing mode, and detected at 254 nm. The procedure is time-conservative with accurate and precise results. Recovery data ranged from 93 to 104%, and coefficients of variation were less than 4% for standards and samples.

Abstract Four duplicate samples of cocoa-containing materials, a practice sample, and standards were submitted to the collaborators for theobromine and caffeine analysis by HPLC. In the method the samples are defatted with petroleum ether, and dried. The fat-free residue is then extracted with water and an aliquot is injected into the chromatograph. Compounds are quantitated by comparison with internal or external standards, either by peak height or peak area. Results for all the analyses showed that few of the values were more than 2 standard deviations from the mean. The method has been adopted as official first action.

Abstract A liquid chromatographic (LC) method for the determination of colchicine in pharmaceutical dosage forms and the bulk drug was evaluated in an interlaboratory study which included 13 participating laboratories. The method involves extraction (or dissolution) of the active ingredient with methanol-water (1 + 1), followed by filtration of the extract and reverse phase LC using an octy lsilane bonded phase column and UV detection at 254 nm. The mobile phase consists of a methanolphosphate buffer mixture (pH = 5.5). Three commercial tablet formulations (0.5-0.6 mg colchicine/tablet), 1 synthetic injectable preparation (0.510 mg colchicine/mL), and 1 bulk drug sample were assayed in duplicate by the proposed method. The reproducibility and repeatability standard deviations based on nonpooled results for each sample ranged from 0.0062 mg/mL to 0.0147 mg/tablet and from 0.0037 mg/ mL to 0.0127 mg/tablet, respectively; the corresponding coefficients of variation ranged from 1.21 to 2.54% and from 0.73 to 2.19%, respectively. The mean recovery from the synthetic injectable formulation was 100.0%. The method has been adopted official first action

Abstract A liquid chromatographic method for determination of bendiocarb in technical materials and wettable powders was tested by 12 collaborators. Bendiocarb is dissolved in acetonitrile containing 0.1% propiophenone as internal standard. This solution is analyzed on a liquid chromatograph utilizing a reverse phase (C18) column. The compound is detected at 254 nm and peak area is used for quantitation. The 3 different materials studied contained 20, 80, and nominally 100% bendiocarb. Each was examined in duplicate to provide the necessary matched pairs. Collaborators approved of the ease and simplicity of the method and, in particular, the way the method can be applied to automatic injection assemblies. The statistical data show acceptable precision of the method: Reproducibility coefficients of variation were 20% material, 2.04%; 80% material, 1.02%; and nominal 100% material (technical product), 0.64%. The method has been adopted official first action.

Abstract Fourteen analysts from 9 laboratories evaluated a high pressure liquid chromatographic procedure for the determination of 4,4′-(diazoamino)-dibenzenesulfonic acid (DAADBSA) in FD&C Yellow No. 6. Each collaborator analyzed 5 samples nominally containing 0—0.050% DAADBSA. The repeatability and reproducibility of the method are estimated to be 0.003% and 0.020%, respectively. The method has been adopted as official first action.
