Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical analysis, in particular to a method for detecting the content of progesterone injection. Background Art

[0002] Progesterone is an intermediate metabolite in the synthesis of steroid hormones and is the most important natural progestin. In the medical field, progesterone injection is used to treat menstrual disorders, such as amenorrhea and functional uterine bleeding, luteal insufficiency, threatened abortion and habitual abortion, and premenstrual tension syndrome. Progesterone injection is indicated for the treatment of menstrual disorders, such as amenorrhea and functional uterine bleeding, luteal insufficiency, threatened abortion and habitual abortion, and premenstrual tension syndrome. Progesterone injection is a sterile oil solution of progesterone, the main ingredient of which is progesterone, and the excipients are injection oil and the antibacterial agent benzyl alcohol. With the improvement of the level of drug research and development and the increasing attention paid to the adverse reactions of related preparations, the attention of pharmaceutical practitioners to the relevant substances in the preparation products is also increasing.

[0003] A high content of progesterone injection can cause dizziness, headache, hives, breast swelling, and long-term continuous use can cause menstrual reduction or amenorrhea, abnormal liver function, edema, weight gain, etc., so people need to have a necessary understanding of the progesterone content in the injection. For a progesterone injection with a maximum daily dose of 100 mg, the injection form is directly injected into the blood or muscle, and the safety risk level is higher in drugs. It is even more necessary to test the content of the main ingredient progesterone, so that the injector and the injectee can understand the progesterone content, and then it is easier to control the amount of the injection.

[0004] After searching the prior art, we did not find any patent website that describes a method for determining progesterone. We need a new analytical method that is convenient for relevant experimental operators to use for the determination of progesterone content, especially for the determination of progesterone content in progesterone injection.

[0005] In view of the above problems, a method for detecting the content of progesterone injection is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for detecting the content of progesterone injection. The device is used to work, thereby solving the problem that the progesterone injection in the above background has a high safety risk level in medicines because the injection dosage form is directly injected into the blood or muscle, and it is even more necessary to detect the content of the main component progesterone. Now, in order to facilitate the injector and the injectee to understand the progesterone content, and then to facilitate the control of the injection amount, we need a new analysis method that is convenient for relevant experimental operators to detect the progesterone content, especially suitable for the detection of the progesterone content of progesterone injection.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a method for detecting the content of progesterone injection, comprising the following main steps;

[0008] Step 1: Prepare the test sample and the internal standard into a methanol solution, perform chromatographic separation by a high performance liquid chromatograph, use an ultraviolet absorption detector to detect the absorption values ​​of progesterone and the internal standard diethylstilbestrol at a wavelength of 254 nm, and calculate the absorption values ​​to obtain the content of progesterone; the required reagents include methanol and ether;

[0009] Step 2: The sample preparation step includes accurately measuring the test sample, accurately weighing the reference sample to prepare the solution, and preparing the internal standard solution. The test sample is washed and diluted with ether, extracted with methanol and the internal standard solution is added to obtain the test sample solution;

[0010] Step 3: The operation steps are to accurately aspirate 5 μL of the test sample and reference sample solution, inject into the high performance liquid chromatograph, measure the absorbance at a wavelength of 254 nm, and calculate the progesterone content according to the internal standard method;

[0011] Octadecylsilane bonded silica gel is used as the filler, the number of theoretical plates calculated based on the progesterone peak should be no less than 1000, and the separation degree between the progesterone peak and the internal standard substance peak should meet the requirements;

[0012] In the step 2, the sample preparation is as follows: take the test solution, accurately measure an appropriate amount of the product with a volumetric pipette, equivalent to 50 mg of progesterone, and place it in a 50 mL volumetric flask; preparation of the reference solution is as follows: accurately weigh an appropriate amount of progesterone reference, add methanol to dissolve and dilute to a solution.

[0013] The instruments and equipment include a high performance liquid chromatograph equipped with an octadecylsilane bonded silica gel column. The theoretical plate number of the progesterone peak is required to be at least 1000, and the peak separation must meet the standards. In addition, an ultraviolet absorption detector is required.

[0014] The chromatographic conditions required the mobile phase to be a 65:35 ratio of methanol and water, the detection wavelength to be 254 nm, and the column temperature to be maintained at room temperature.

[0015] Preparation of the internal standard solution: Take 25 mg of diethylstilbestrol, place it in a 25 mL volumetric flask, add dilute methanol to dissolve it and dilute it to the scale.

[0016] Preparation of the test solution: Wash the inner wall of the pipette with ether several times, add the washing solution into the volumetric flask, and dilute to the scale with ether;

[0019] The high performance liquid phase analysis method of progesterone is used in progesterone injection. The method is suitable for progesterone injection. The method adopts high performance liquid chromatography to determine the content of progesterone in progesterone injection.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

The theoretical plate number of the progesterone peak is required to be at least 1000, and the peak separation meets the standard. In addition, an ultraviolet absorption detector is also required; the screening of the detection wavelength, after ultraviolet full scan, the ultraviolet absorption of progesterone is basically close to the terminal absorption, and according to the screening of the mobile phase ratio, it is finally determined to select a detection of progesterone with a moderate retention time and various substances. This method fills the gap in the detection of progesterone by liquid chromatography. The detection method can be used for the detection of progesterone content and related substances, and can be used to guide the inspection of stability samples. In the later injection, since the progesterone injection is directly injected into the blood or muscle, it is convenient for the injector and the injectee to understand the progesterone content, and then it is convenient to control the amount of the injection, thereby improving the safety of the use of progesterone injection.
