Aim. The aim of study was to develop and validate a simple, precise and accurate method using gas chromatography for analysis of residual solvents – acetone and 2-propanol – in quinabut API. Materials and methods. All experiments were performed on a gas chromatographic system equipped with FID detector (Shimadzu GC System) using the DB-624 (30 m × 0.32 mm ID, 3.0 μm film sickness) column as stationary phase. Nitrogen was used as carrier gas with flow rate 7.5 mL/ min. Split ratio was 1:5, injector temperature was 140 °C, detector temperature was 250 °C, oven temperature was programmed from 40 °C (2 min) to 50 °C at 1 °C/min and then increased at a rate of 15 °C/min up to 215 °C; and maintained for 2 min. All solutions were prepared using water as diluent. Results. This proposed method is assessed for separation of residual solvent from quinabut with quantification. The obtained results are compared with the corresponding specified limits of ICH standard guidelines. The method validation was done by evaluating specificity, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ), linearity, accuracy, repeatability, ruggedness, system suitability and method precision of residual solvents as indicated in the ICH harmonized tripartite guideline. The separation between acetone and 2-propanol peaks is 2.07. Hence method was found to be specific. The linear relationship evaluated across range of 15 to 180% for acetone and 2-propanol of ICH specified limit of residual solvents. The graphs of theoretical concentration versus obtained concentration are linear and the regression coefficients ‘R’ for residual solvents were more than 0.9968. The values of LOD and LOQ were much less than the lower limit of the concentration range and cannot affect the accuracy of the test. The technique was characterized by high intra-laboratory accuracy at concentrations close to the nominal acetone and 2-propanol concentration. All solutions were stable in water for at least 1 hour when stored at room temperature. Conclusion. A simple, specific, accurate, precise and rugged gas chromatography method was developed and validated for the quantification of residual solvents present in quinabut API through an understanding of the synthetic process, nature of solvents and nature of stationary phases of columns. The residual solvents acetone and 2-propanol were determined.

The aim of this work was the development and validation of a fast analytical method to determine the residual solvents content in radiopharmaceuticals such as: 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), 18F-Fluoroestradiol (18F-FES), 18F-Fluorothymidine (18F-FLT),18F-Fluoromisonidazole (18F-FMISO). Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive preparations for medical purposes used in nuclear medicine as tracers in diagnostic imaging and treatment of certain diseases. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique that consists in introducing into the body of a small amount of a biologically active chemical compound labelled with a short lived positron-emitting radioisotope (18F, 11C, 68Ga). Residual solvents are critical impurities in radiopharmaceuticals that can affect labelling, stability and physicochemical properties of drugs. Therefore, the determination of these solvents is essential for quality control of radiopharmaceuticals. Validation of the control method for residual solvents by gas chromatography is referred by the European Pharmacopoeia using a special injection technique (head space). The parameters of the method, which comply with International Conference on Harmonization guidelines, are: accuracy, precision, linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification and robustness. The proposed method (direct gas chromatography injection) proved to be linear, precise, accurate and robust. Good linearity was achieved for all the solvents and correlation coefficients (R2) for each residual solvent were found more than 0.99.

Residual solvents in Pharmaceuticals are termed as organic volatile impurities. These are the chemicals that are used in the manufacture of drug substance or excipients or use in the preparation of final formulation. Most of the available methods use liquid chromatography which could be expensive and time consuming. Hence, an analytical methodology was developed for the quantification of residual solvents in Glipizide using a headspace gas chromatography (HSGC) with the help of flame ionization detector (FID). Methanol, acetone and dimethyl formamide as residual solvents were determined in Glipizide. Analysis was performed by headspace GC/FID method on Auto system- HS40. Nitrogen was used as a carrier gas and the separation of residual solvents was achieved by DB-Wax 0.25mm, 0.3mcm column. The thermostat temperature was 115 °C for 40 minutes for each vial. % RSD for nine injections obtained are in acceptance criteria. The correlation coefficient R2 obtained greater than 0.99. The method parameters were validated includes specificity, limit of detection and quantification, accuracy, linearity, precision, and robustness. According to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines, a new simple, specific, accurate and precise method was developed and validated.

Residual solvent testing is an integral part of reference material certification. A gas chromatography/flame ionization detector/headspace method has been developed and validated to detect and quantitate commonly used residual solvents in our production processes: Methanol, Tetrahydrofuran, Toluene, Dichloromethane and Dichloroethane in Simeprevir API. A simple and selective HS-GC method is described for the determination & quantification of Residual Solvents in Simeprevir API. Chromatographic separation was achieved on USP G43 equivalent capillary column Thermo Scientific™ Trace GOLD™ TG-624 SilMS, 30m × 0.32mm × 1.8µm column (P/N 26059-3390) using nitrogen as carrier gas by using different temperature gradient of FID Detectors. Linearity was observed in the range 40-120% of standard concentrations for Methanol, Tetrahydrofuran, Toluene, Dichloromethane and Dichloroethane (r2>0.999) for the amount of solvent estimated by the proposed methods was in good agreement. The proposed methods were validated. The accuracy of the methods was assessed by recovery studies at three different levels. Recovery experiments indicated the absence of interference from commonly encountered diluent and API. The method was found to be precise as indicated by the repeatability analysis, showing %RSD less than 10 for Methanol, Tetrahydrofuran, Toluene, Dichloromethane and Dichloroethane. All statistical data proves validity of the methods and can be used for routine analysis of pharmaceutical active ingredients for estimation of Residual Solvents of Methanol, Tetrahydrofuran, Toluene, Dichloromethane and Dichloroethane in Simeprevir. Baseline separation of all five solvents and Simeprevir API is achieved within 20.5 minutes of analysis time. Method validation comprised the following parameters: limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantitation (LOQ), linearity and range, accuracy, precision (repeatability and intermediate precision), system suitability, specificity, and robustness. Linearity and LOQ (ppm) are listed for each solvent in manuscript. The present method was proven to be robust and accurate for quantitative analysis of residual solvent in neat materials.

Background: The main aim of the study was to develop an automated static headspace gas chromatography (SHS-GC) method for determination of dichloromethane (DCM) in ampicillin sodium by using a capillary column. Methods: SHS-GC also known as gas chromatography-headspace is the technique of choice due to its high sensitivity, excellent separation abilities, low limit of detection and simplicity of the instrumentation used for the technique. The headspace sampling method has more appropriate sensitivity than the direct injection method because it can clearly separate volatile analytes from the sample matrix and effectively concentrate them. Therefore, this method results in less complex sample preparation, decreased instrument contamination, and increased capillary column life. Results: The developed SHS-GC method showed symmetrical peak shape reasonable retention time for DCM. A linear relationship was obtained over the range of 2-240 μg mL-1 with a correlation coefficient (r2) of 0.993. The recovery, system precision and robustness of the method were within the acceptable values. The Limit of Detection (LOD) and Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) were 0.5 μg mL-1 and 2 μg mL-1 respectively. Conclusions: The results obtained in this study demonstrate that SHS-GC method is selective, precise, linear, accurate and robust for determination of dichloromethane in ampicillin sodium and its formulation (injection).

Residual solvents in pharmaceutical samples are monitored using gas chromatography with head space. Based on good manufacturing practices, measuring residual solvents is mandatory for the release testing of all active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). The analysis of residual organic solvents (methanol, acetone, cyclohexane, dichloromethane, toluene) in Omeprazole, an active pharmaceutical ingredient was investigated. Omeprazole is a potent reversible inhibitor of the gastric proton pump H+/K+-ATPase. The Head space gas chromatography (HSGC) method described in this investigation utilized a SPB TM-624, Supelco, 30 m long x 0.25 mm internal diameter, 1.4µm-thick column. Since Omeprazole is a thermally labile compound, the selection of the proper injector temperature is critical to the success of the analysis. The injector temperature was set at 170ºC to prevent degradation. The initial oven temperature was set at 40ºC for 12 min and programmed at a rate of 10ºC min-1 to a final temperature of 220ºC for 5 min. Nitrogen was used as a carrier gas. The sample solvent selected was N,N-dimethylacetamide. The method was validated to be specific, linear, precise, sensitive, rugged and showed excellent recovery.
